Atlas Field Kit
Unofficial No Man's Sky companion app and local save editor.
Atlas Field Kit is the first release from Subspace Foundry. It keeps a copy of the No Man's Sky reference data on your device: 3,538 crafting, refining, and cooking recipes across 4,257 items, 145 encyclopedia articles and survival guides, a 16-glyph portal converter, and all 23 community expeditions, in both Explorer and Commander themes. Open a local Steam or GOG save on Windows and you can add items, move stacks, unlock slots, and add or move supercharged slots. You can edit a starship or multi-tool you already own, add a new ship, and change frigate stats, frigate traits, and settlement perks. The Windows app writes that save on your computer only after it stores a backup, then you reload the slot in the game.
Not affiliated with Hello Games. No Man's Sky and the names in the game are theirs. Subspace Foundry built this companion.
What it does
Seven No Man's Sky tools in one kit
Four modules carry packed reference data and run directly in the browser. The other three inspect and edit a local save through the Windows helper.
Encyclopedia and survival guides
145 survival guides, settlement references, and story walkthroughs sit beside an encyclopedia of the items in the game, each with the game's own description, alongside worlds, weather, Corvette modules, and the galaxy. With a local save open, Your Records also tracks milestones and faction standing.
Portals and coordinates
The sixteen portal glyphs, a bidirectional translation between glyph addresses and Signal Booster Galactic coordinates, and 3,574 catalogued community destinations. With the Windows app, Travel can send you to the glyphs on the pad, or to a base, station, freighter, or settlement from the save after storing a backup.
Community expeditions
All 23 community expedition seasons, their phases, the milestones inside them, and every reward. Useful beside the game while a live expedition is running, and still there when you want to look back at an earlier season.
Inventory, ships, and multi-tools
Exosuit, starship, freighter, multi-tool, and storage containers. Add an item, move or copy a stack, unlock cargo or technology slots, and add, move, or clear a supercharged slot. Edit the class and bonuses on a ship or multi-tool you already have, or add a new ship. Save all stores a backup first.
Settlement
Population, happiness, debt, production, and the decisions waiting on a planetary settlement you already own. Its perks can be added or replaced. The same safety rule applies: a backup first, then the write, then a reload of that save slot in the game.
Frigate fleet and timers
Active frigate expeditions on the save, with live countdown timers you can leave running. A docked frigate's specialist stats and traits can be changed, and a frigate can be copied or released. The Windows app can raise a notification when a fleet returns or a settlement needs you.
Web tools & hubs
Standalone web tools and reference pages
Open any tool or reference directory directly on the web with its own shareable address, without installing software or launching the full companion workspace.
Portal glyph and Signal Booster coordinate converter
Dial a twelve-glyph portal address on the sixteen-glyph pad or paste a four-block Signal Booster coordinate string to translate between them in either direction. The converter checks sector bounds for invalid coordinates and generates shareable portal address cards with galaxy labels.
Crafting, refining, and cooking directory
Browse standalone recipe breakdowns, refiner ratios, and multi-stage crafting trees such as Stasis Devices and Fusion Ignitors with raw material totals.
Survival guides, walkthroughs, and biomes
Read field manuals covering early survival, main story paths, faction standing, planetary weather, settlement buildings, and Corvette ship modules.
Community expeditions archive
Check phase objectives, milestone steps, and season rewards across every No Man's Sky community expedition from Pioneers onward.
Local Windows save editor overview
See how local Steam, GOG, and Microsoft Store save editing works on Windows, including automatic backup pairs, supercharged slots, seeds, and stat card exports.
Screens
All seven companion screens
Select any capture to inspect it full size, or switch between the Explorer and Commander themes.
Crafting
Pick any craftable product, refined substance, or cooked dish and the kit breaks down every step to make it. Set a batch quantity, compare profit per craft, and pin plans locally on your device without needing a save file.
Recipes & RefinersEncyclopedia and guides
Survival guides and story walkthroughs sit with an encyclopedia of 4,257 game items, each carrying the game's own description, alongside planetary biomes, weather hazards, Corvette parts, and galaxy types. Keep it open on a second screen while you play.
Guides & Biomes (145)Portals
Punch the sixteen portal glyphs or paste a Signal Booster coordinate string to translate between them instantly, or browse 3,574 community addresses. With the Windows app, Travel can move you to the glyphs on the pad, or to a base, station, freighter, or settlement from the save after storing a backup.
Portal Glyph ConverterExpeditions
Every community expedition from Season 1 through Season 23, with phase breakdowns, milestone steps, and rewards. Tick milestones manually in the browser or let an open save fill them in automatically.
Expeditions (23)Inventory and starships
The grid reflects the Steam or GOG save you opened. Add items, move stacks, unlock slots, and place or move supercharged slots. Edit the class and stats on the ship or multi-tool in front of you, or add a new ship. Changes stay staged until Save all stores a backup and writes the local file.
Windows Save EditorSettlement
A settlement you already own, read from the save: how many citizens, how happy they are, what the debt looks like, which perks it carries, and which decisions are waiting. Those perks can be changed here. Save all stores a backup, writes the local file, and expects you to reload the slot in the game.
Fleet
Frigate expeditions on the save, with timers you can leave running. A docked frigate's specialist stats and traits can be changed, and a frigate can be copied or released. The Windows app can raise a notification when a fleet returns or a settlement needs you.
Browser or Windows
Browser edition vs. Windows save editor
Both editions use the same Explorer and Commander interfaces. Writing a save, watching the save folder, and Windows notifications need the helper packed inside the Windows app.
| What you want | Nothing to install In the browser | Save tools included Windows app |

Download Atlas Field Kit for Windows
The setup includes the companion and a local helper that sits in the system tray. The helper watches your Steam or GOG save folder and writes edits after creating a backup. The download is 174 MB because all item icons, the encyclopedia, and the recipe data travel inside it for offline use.

Windows may show a SmartScreen dialog the first time you open this setup. The file is signed. Choose More info, then Run anyway. Subspace Foundry is a new studio, so Windows has not seen this download often enough to skip the question. When enough people have opened this same file, Windows stops asking.
174 MB is the size Windows Explorer shows for the file, which is 183,453,360 bytes.
What the install does
- Windows 10 or Windows 11, 64-bit.
- Per-user setup. It does not ask for an administrator password.
- A helper runs in the tray on this computer. It watches the save folder and writes the file.
- It looks for Steam and GOG save folders.
- Save all stores a backup of the save pair, then writes. Restore puts that backup back.
- Includes both Explorer and Commander themes, and checks for new releases automatically.
How local No Man's Sky save backups and writes work
Edits wait on the screen where you made them. Save all stores a backup of the save pair, then writes the file on that computer. Restore puts that backup back. Cancel drops the edits and leaves the file alone. After a write, reload that slot from the game's save list.
The backup is how you return to the file you had. A later game update can still disagree with an edited save. The kit does not upload the save anywhere, and it does not speak for Hello Games.
Questions
Frequently asked questions
Do I need the installer to look up a recipe or a glyph address?
No. Open the browser edition. Crafting, the encyclopedia and survival guides, portals, and all 23 expeditions run directly in the page. Install the Windows app when you want it to find local saves, write edits, and raise Windows notifications.
Which No Man's Sky save files work with Atlas Field Kit?
The Windows app reads and writes local Steam and GOG save folders on Windows 10 and Windows 11 (64-bit). Console players on PlayStation, Xbox, or Switch, as well as Mac or tablet users, can open the browser edition on a second screen for recipes, survival guides, portal glyphs, and expedition tracking.
Is Atlas Field Kit free, and does it upload my save?
Yes, Atlas Field Kit is completely free, requires no account, and never uploads your save file anywhere. Reference data is packed locally, and every save read, backup, and write happens on your own computer.
What happens to my save when I press Save all?
The helper stores a backup of the save pair, then writes the file. Restore puts that backup back. Reload the slot from the game's save list so the game picks up the file you wrote. Cancel, before Save all, drops the edits and does not touch the file.
Can this promise my save will never break?
No. The backup is there so you can put the previous file back. An edit can still be wrong, and a future game update can disagree with a save that was changed outside the game. Keep the backup until you have loaded the slot and seen that it is the save you wanted.
Which game is this, and who makes that game?
Atlas Field Kit is an unofficial companion for No Man's Sky. Hello Games makes No Man's Sky. Subspace Foundry makes the companion. The two are not affiliated.
Windows says it protected my PC. What should I do?
The setup is signed. On the SmartScreen dialog, choose More info, then Run anyway. The question appears because Subspace Foundry is a new studio and Windows does not know this file yet. When enough people have opened this same file, Windows stops asking.
Where do I send a bug or an idea?
Write to @SubspaceFoundry on X. Say whether you were in the browser or the Windows app, and what you expected to happen. That account is the studio's contact for the kit and for whatever we make next.
