Transfer pets?

[Rye]

I started my expedition from the terminal on the anomaly. Can pets/eggs transfer back? after I complete the expedition?

[Jaggid Edje]

No, neither pets nor eggs can be transferred via the expedition terminal.

You cannot even use other players to assist with such a transfer because when on an expedition you only see other expedition players.

You could use the save editor to transfer them though. It allows you to 'export' pets, which you can then "import" into your normal save.

Go to the guy in the hub after ending expedition and receive expedition items.

Sadly that doesn't work for me, as I'm not talking about expedition items specifically.

You can give an egg to someone else/an other account who started the expedition on a new save, and transfer them to your main save after the end of the expedition (so their save turns to a normal one).

Alternatively you can start the expedition again from scratch, wait for it to finish and then transfer the egg with the help of someone or an other account.

Thats what I ended up doing, just hope I dont forget about it lol.

Good idea, I didn't even think about the expedition players who get to keep any eggs they have.

Wait, the expedition gives pet eggs as rewards for missions. What's the point if they are not transferable to your main save?

Although it likely won't help you in this instance,
anytime you find a creature during an expo that you want to keep as a pet, you should take note of the planet glyphs, or make a base on the planet.
You can then easily revisit the location after returning to your main save to adopt a new pet

The eggs you get as rewards can be claimed from the QS trader...

Except for the Phase 1 one.

I saw the eggs in that reward list, but I haven't verified it against what I got as a reward for the bonus missions. So those all can be reclaimed later? That's cool, not a big deal then.

Sadly, I made a base at a pet I had in the last expedition (one I had been looking for after accidentally not making a base at it last time), but when I went back the game had changed it into a different type of creature. It was one of those planets were there is only one fauna, so I can't be mistaken. My poor friend was erased.

Really? That's unfortunate...
Are you 100% sure that you didn't just find a different form of the same species?
Sometimes the males, females, and adolescents can look quite different...

[tinysalutations]

I'm pretty sure. I looked everywhere. My first pet was a big ball of electricity and the ones they were replaced with were those groups of metal clothespins that fly around. I don't know how else to describe those ones lol. I've seen those clothespins ones a lot.

[tinysalutations]

They were replaced in my analysis of the planet too, like the zoology info, which I don't think would change if I was just looking at different ones.

I'm sure I'll find one again though. It'll be exciting when I come across one again.

[Shadow Strider]

ah, yeah, that's definitely a different creature.
You'll definitely find those again though, just a matter of time ;)
