No Magnesium Spawn Found After Extensive Exploration

Philippe Normandeau shared this bug 40 days ago
Need More Information

Current SE2 alpha build.


I explored over 200 asteroids, traveled more than 208 km from the starter base, reached the moon, salvaged many wrecks and looted multiple stations.

Resources found:

  • Iron
  • Nickel
  • Silicon
  • Ice
  • Gold
  • Copper
  • Cobalt

But absolutely no Magnesium deposits anywhere.

The progression mission requiring:

  • rifles
  • rockets
  • ammunition

becomes effectively impossible without Magnesium.

Hello Philippe Normandeau,


In the Verdure sector, magnesium ore can be only found in the Viridian Halo - Verdure's planetary ring. I was able to find Magnesium ore in the ring just above the Vallation Station.


Let me know if this helps.


Kind Regards,

I had a similar issue and also explored extensively hundreds of asteroids around Kemik and in the various halos. Spent four hours at least asteroid hopping in four sectors and never found so much as a milligram of magnesium. There may be something to this beyond looking in the wrong place, but I couldn't tell you what it is.

Yeh, Mg is a bit of hit and miss. The easiest way i found is to grab a prospector ship (it's got the large ore scanner) head start out to the innner ring from the station, then putter along just inside the ring layer (u can also check out the workshop for mods that booster ore detection that help alot.) just keep working around and you should start hitting some Mg and uranium in the same area. also save game before heading out so if u don't find any, restart save. sometimes it helps.
