I'm still fairly new to the game and was perusing the wiki looking for where to find Nitrogen. It says it can be found on Lush or Toxic biomes, I click the links to follow the biomes and I see it listed other names. I just so happen to be right next to both a flourishing AND a noxious planet. Can I get Nitrogen from these or does it have to be only specifically lush or toxic?

I usually look for it on Lush biomes, it and paraffinium are two of the key features of this biome.

Do you have the Survey Device installed on your multi-tool yet? If so, hit up 3 a few times with the analysis visor on, (F). It should end up on the little gas cloud, this is how you find gas deposits to mine. On a Lush world, it'll also detect Oxygen deposits.

You have to use the Advanced Visor (Survey Device?) to locate a concentrated gas cloud on a respective planet and then build gas extractors on it that connect to silos that you can harvest it from.

I'm actually on the switch so the visor select is on the DPad. So it'll only appear specifically on planet's labelled as Lush, and not any of the others listed like that like flourishing or such?

I know that part but that's not what I am trying to ask sorry xD

All the other names are flavor text, they still function the same and have the same resources. So no you do not need to look specifically lush or toxic.

"Lush" is actually a broad class of names. Flourishing is one of those. Just keep an eye out in space for the "Paraffinium" deposit. That's biome specific. If you see that listed, it's a lush planet. Just like if you see Ammonia listed, then it's "Toxic" biome. Phosphorus is a "Scorched" biome. Dioxite is a "Frozen" biome. Uranium is a "Radioactive" biome. Pyrite is a "Desert" biome...
