Also when on a space station make sure you are selecting the second item, "Purchase Upgrade Modules." Also if you buy these and decide to upgrade, you will have to repurchase them again since they are not blueprints and require no materials to make them. You will get a technology module if you delete it before upgrading to a new tool or ship.

    Press up on your dpad and put down a base computer. Create a building and then put down a construction terminal to start base missions.

    Living glass and the blueprints to make it are found during the base missions.

    Large refiner and many other items are unlocked in the base building story.

    I have heard that once you get blue you only need to keep Indium drive. I have all three so no way for me to test. If you can travel to red and green planets then you do not. Go to free explore and find red/green planets to see if you can jump to them.
    So I'm guessing because I have only been to two systems, both of them Vy'Keen, that would be why I can't find any class S visor upgrades.

    How do I get the construction terminal? Only things I have available right now are Base Computer, Blueprint Analyzer, Signal Booster, Save Point, Communications Station and Portable Refiner.

The reason you are not making a bunch of money is you have been stationary and spending a bunch of time on the same planets. Mining used to the best way to make money back in the day but now it is all about the Scanner upgrades and farming. Money will come, you just need to start the base building line and getting those upgrades. You can get a large A class ship for much less than 100m. Want a better ship, go to a space station or trading post. As ships come in use your scanner, it will tell you if it is a class C, B, A or S and how many slots and tech slots it has plus the value of the ship, not including trade in value from your ship.
    I didn't know about that trick! I was running up to each ship and asking to buy their ship to see their class and inventory space. Scanning them for that info will save tons of time.

    And yeah, I do need to jump out of my first two systems. I keep finding so much stuff to do, I just keep going from place to place. But it did help some. I currently have 54 million units, did have almost 6,000 nanites before buying some multi-tool upgrade modules. While I only have 25 main exosuit slots, I'm now up to 18 high capacity cargo slots and 13 technology slots thanks to the shit ton of drop pods I've found.

    I've also already blasted out almost half of the milestones. I've already reached maximum milestone for On Foot Exploration (371ks), Alien Encounters (170), Words Collected (242 with 226 of those being Vy'Keen) and Units Accrued. I'm only Milestone 1 for Ships Destroyed (5), Milestone 8 for Sentinels Destroyed (61), Milestone 0 for Extreme Survival (0.0 Sols), Milestone 0 for Space Exploration (only 2 warps) and Milestone 2 for Planetary Zoology, having discovered all species on two planets.

    For Lifeforms, I've been at Templar standing with the Vy'Keen since Wednesday, up to Friend with the Gek and Test Subject with the Korvax.

    And one planet, in my second system, I managed to discover 154 sectors/save points/waypoints.

Be careful not to shoot near the freighter. Freighters have sections on it that hold materials and turrets for defense. If it thinks you are being aggressive, you will have and endless supply of sentinel ships coming to take you down. Find the closest planet or space station to escape, because they will not stop coming at you.
    Alright, so in that case, that must have just been a random freighter I discovered. Someone on OS I think it was, said you don't have to accept the free freighter the first time you get offered it. Apparently you can decline to accept it and warp some more and you'll trigger the freighter firefight thing again and you can try to get a better freighter if the first free one sucks.
