Giving food in bulk to Iteration: Cronus?
I spend a while making several stacks of herb-encrusted flesh so I can get enough nanites to unlock the freighter paints (which are a staggering 5000 nanites a piece) and, although it should yield a significant amount of nanites, it's REALLY BORING handing the food over to him one-by-one, waiting for him to comment on it, give me a random amount of nanites, and repeat.

Is there an option to give him plenty of food at once? Because, if there isn't, there definitely should be.

Since the point it's supposedly for him to review each dish, just giving food in bulk makes no sense. I agree that it's tiresome though.

If you are looking for nanites, talk to your tech specialists and the other NPCs in the Nexus. The Techs give pretty good amounts for discoveries and plants every 24 hours after you finish their missions.

I know, and I always do talk to them. But they give you like 700 or so nanites per 24 hours if you scan a lot of things and have a bunch of the items they want. Alien Gordon Ramsey is the only consistent way to get lots of nanites (unless you want to make massive farms or something, which I don't).

In case anyone else finds them self here in this old thread like me, here's a link to an Auto Hot Key macro I made to auto feed him for you. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1WbG23dT0s23kQylBBz1NvWVlGhIHHy-E/view?usp=sharing

1) Install Auto Hot Key
2) Download the file
3) Walk in a straight line up to Cronus so you will still be pointed at him after a conversation
4) Open the file (which will automatically start running through AHK)
5) Go back into NMS and watch your nanites and Cronus get stuffed
