The [Space Anomaly](https://nomanssky.fandom.com/wiki/Space_Anomaly) has them. There’s this one room that has a half dozen or so merchants for various things. Ship upgrades, base parts, vehicles, etc. You can also get various upgrades (some random) by doing [Base Computer](https://nomanssky.fandom.com/wiki/Base_Computer) Archive missions. ---

I am following the main story, or at least one of the paths of it. I just need more tech. slots and more inventory slots. I would, at this point, turn on creative mode just to “steal” 20 of them. I am earning currency to buy upgrades, but my stuff has no more slots to install them. I keep finding new things, but I have no inventory. I can make a storage container, but that isn’t accessible anywhere. I see many little quirks along the way, but I am one dense person as I don’t see where I can get a bunch of inventory slots. ---

I have figured out how to expand inventory and tech. slots. I am following, for the most part, the “Atlas” path. It’s kind of dull, to be honest. You warp to Atlas Stations, learn a few words, and activate an Atlas machine and it talks to you. I would go back on the Artemis storyline, but I see no indicator how to advance it past where I have. I don’t know how many Atlas Stations I have to find, but it’s a very uninteresting questline to just keep finding more of them and landing inside them. ---

“Scan 3 new/unique minerals.” “Scan 3 unique plants.” I go to locations to do this and I always end up with 2 out of 3 and then I can’t find a third. Whatevs. ---
