No Man's Sky: Guide to finding resources with ley lines
Learn how to use ley lines in No Man's Sky to locate valuable resources, deposits, and structures of interest. Use the ley line calculator to find the coordinates and maximize your gains of money, materials, and nanites.
1. 🚀 Introduction to Ley Lines in No Man's Sky
- ✅ Ley lines are lines on planets that allow you to find interesting resources.
- ✅ They facilitate obtaining money, materials, and nanites.
- ✅ This method is crucial for future nanite and resource farms on the channel.

2. 🤔 What are Ley Lines and how do they work?
- ✅ Ley lines are vertical axes on planets that connect resource deposits and points of interest.
- ✅ They allow you to find large deposits of resources such as venom sacs or runaway mold.
- ✅ The procedural generation of the game follows predictable patterns through these lines.

3. 🗺️ Using the Ley Line Calculator
- ✅ Use the ley line calculator (link in the description) to find the coordinates.
- ✅ Land your ship and write down the initial coordinates.
- ✅ Move more than 1000 meters away from the ship and write down the new coordinates.
- ✅ Enter both coordinates and the distance traveled in the calculator.
- ✅ The calculator will give you the longitudes of the ley lines you should head to.

4. 🧭 Navigation and resource search along the ley lines
- ✅ Return to your ship and head to the longitude coordinate provided by the calculator.
- ✅ Once at the coordinate, move north or south along the ley line.
- ✅ Use the scanner and compass to find resources and points of interest.
- ✅ Resources will appear along the line.

5. ✈️ Automating the search with the freighter
- ✅ Point the ship south and activate the autopilot to maintain the current airway.
- ✅ Use the analysis visor from the freighter to identify resources and structures along the line.
- ✅ You can also use an exocraft to explore.
08:44 - 09:16
6. 📍 Save beacons and deposit selection
- ✅ Place save beacons on the deposits that interest you.
- ✅ This will allow you to return and choose the most valuable deposits.
09:17 - 09:59
7. ⭐ Curious three-star deposits
- ✅ Curious deposits are three-star resources.
- ✅ They include venom sacs, metal fingers, and other valuable resources.
10:00 - 11:23
8. 🪐 Strategies for finding three-star deposits
- ✅ Search in systems with six stellar bodies to increase the probability of finding suitable planets.
- ✅ Consider toxic or radioactive planets, although this is just a personal theory.
- ✅ Each planet has a specific type of three-star deposit.
11:24 - 12:32
9. 💰 Farming mold and nanites
- ✅ Look for planets with gamma root or radioactive planets to farm during storms.
- ✅ Combine this with the Starshooter and weapon bonuses to maximize mold collection.
- ✅ Refine the mold to obtain nanites, which are used to upgrade your freighter to class S.

10. ✅ Summary and upcoming videos
- ✅ Ley lines are useful for finding plants, materials, and buildings.
- ✅ Stay tuned for upcoming videos to learn more about how to use this method.
