2. Set up some sort of farm whether it be plants, animals, etc..
3. Use certain mods to "legitimately" get insane amounts of pixels
Examples for #3:
This method requires you to get up to T6 planets and farm lots of T5-T6 ores. If you use Project Nightfall, level up the weapon/armor station to max. There are several legendary COSMETIC helms that cost 500 pixels to make and have a listed sell price of 10,000 pixels, you actually get 2,000. That's infinite money and imo, not that fair.
OR
This method requires you to be able to survive on a lava planet but you can afk farm on the surface. If you use the Arcana mod, craft several of the Essence Extractor Mk.I - Upgrade your manipulator to farm liquids and head to a lava planet. Leave a weighted object on your mouse and afk farm lava until you have 100k+ (I use a mod to increase stack sizes to 1M). Put all that lava split evenly into the extractors and afk next to them while you're at work or school. Use 16 of them since they process slowly (about 1 unit every 2 seconds). That lava will be turned into iron ore, core fragments and fire essence. You will be loaded by time you get home. This method feels much more fair than the above options. I Have done this method without the proper epp and spammed salves while gathering lava. Time consuming but still more efficient than you think for pixel farming.
1. Sellable blocks. Does what it says and gives most blocks a sell value, even dirt! Typically you'll will net 1 pixel per block so that 30,000 dirt you just move to build a base can now be sold for 30,000 pixels.
2. Increased trophy/figurine drop chance. Increases the drop chance from killing monsters and bosses from 1/1000 to 1/2. Each figurine nets you 1k pixels I think. Starting planet surface will grab you 50k+ pixels easy. Also makes that particular achievement much much easier.
I actually prefer these 2 methods for passively getting pixels and I don't consider it cheating, so much as your just saving time and frustration so you have more time to play the way you want to.
Edit: Mods DO NOT disable achievements.
