Crashed ship with pilot. Help?

[Vaeus]

I've found a crashed ship with a living pilot. It says he'll talk to me more if I fix his ship, but seems reluctant to let me repair it directly. What do I do?

[Jaggid Edje]

Talk to the pilot. He'll tell you what is needed. He should be walking around outside the area where the crashed ship is.

Be advised, when you find a crashed ship WITH a pilot, you don't get to keep the ship. And you can't kill the pilot and just take it. Just thought I'd mention it, if it's the ship you're after. You get some minor reward if you help him, and then he'll fly away in his now-fixed ship.

If the pilot is the one telling you he'll talk to you more if you fix his ship, that usually only happens if he already told you what was needed. If that's not the case, maybe you found a glitchy crashed ship with pilot. In which case, just move on. It's not worth trying to trouble shoot it.

Do what Jaggid says ... OR
Walk away and continue on playing the game... at the very MOST you will improve your standing with whatever race the pilot is (Gek, Korvax or Vy'keen) and maybe they will give you a trinket.

More info: Standings with races can be rapidly improved should you need to during an upcoming story mission... so I say walk away.

What!! And leave the poor dear (insert race here) stranded? their traveller soul will follow and haunt you the rest of your space-faring days. Every time you look over your shoulder you will see a grave marker.

Is it wrong that I get excited when I'm on planet, doing whatever the hell I do on a planet and I whip out my visor and their... off in the distance... a kite shaped marker... is it... could it be??? It IS? it is... it's a Traveller grave... let me go and grab my glyph and memory fragment and of course.. pay my respects to our fallen comrade...

Very respectful of you sir, after all....

Vast universe calls,
No Man's Sky endless expanse,
Dreams among the stars.

@Vaeus - I apologize for hijacking your thread... many of us.. wait.. .some of us... wait okay it's just me okay.. just me... I am a flipping goof ball that likes nothing more than to play my favorite game... you know which one, right?? It's No Ma's Sky... silly and help other Traveller's on the forums...

PS I didn't spell it wrong, blame Hello Games.. since day one it's that "UK" English... or the very first guy that typed out that word in the game held down the "L" key too long and there you have it, the official (mis)spelling of Traveller

PPS How many of you guys have added "Traveller", traveller" to your custom dictionary so you get rid of that damn red squiggle underline???

Both are right just depends where you're located.

Explanation: US style is a single l on travel when a suffix is added. UK style is to double the l.
