Terminal Access Codes | No Man's Sky

October 2024 · 4 minute read
Terminal Codes are solutions to number puzzles in No Man’s Sky. When you visit outposts on the planets you travel to, you’ll sometimes find terminals which require you to solve a puzzle and enter the last part of the access code in order to unlock them.';document.getElementById("serge_648ac998c20ba86b43957c42").style.display = "block"; } The puzzles aren’t too hard, but you only get one shot at solving them – if you choose the wrong answer, the terminal will stay locked forever. In this guide, we’re going to show you all terminal access codes in No Man’s Sky, what they unlock.

Each terminal you manage to unlock is going to provide you with coordinates for another point of interest – a crashed ship, an alien monument, an abandoned outpost, etc. It’s also going to improve your standing with the faction it belongs to. Some of the problems can be solved by simply swapping around the digits, while others require a bit of addition/substraction.

9183 – 1839 – 8391 – XXXX

Type: Observatory
Description: The observatory hums gently as it scans the sky. The trader that manned it was clearly looking for something in the cosmos. And it seems the observatory may have found it.
If I can decipher this beacon’s code, I may be able to pinpoint its origin.
Answer: 3918
Rewards:

9780 – 7809 – 8097 – XXXX

Type: Observatory
Description: A beacon sent from light years away flickers tantalizingly on the monitor, awaiting a response.
But what response do I give?
Answer: 0978
Rewards:

3987 – 9873 – 8739 – XXXX

Type: Observatory
Description: Images show that this Observatory was once a warzone. Manngled metal, scorched walls and the heavily decayed corpses of a dozen hulking lifeforms betray a brutal firefight.
Now repaired, whatever transpired it must have happened before the Beacon that flashes on screen arrived. Perhaps if I enter the correct code I can decipher it.
Answer: 7398
Rewards:

4634 – 6344 – 3446 – XXXX

Type: Observatory
Description: Images of shattered Sentinels are displayed like trophies on this terminal screen. Seems the observatory’s former overseer had a penchant for hunting these machines.
Perhaps their time would have been better spent monitoring incoming Beacons like the one that flashes on a monitor before me. If I can enter the correct access code perhaps I can discover where it originated from.
Answer: 4463
Rewards:

1702 – 7021 – 0217 – XXXX

Type: Observatory
Description: A beacon sent long ago from a distant system awaits my response.
Three numbers are visible above an empty input box. I think I know what comes next…
Answer: 2170
Rewards:

17 – 33 – 65 – 129 – XXX

Type: Transmission tower
Description: A pulsing red light flashes on the console. Below it, a sequence of numbers repeats itself endlessly below it. It’s clearly a distress signal.
It is a cold, empty and distant way of viewing a disaster that, in all likelihood, cost a pilot’s life. If I can work out the encryption routine, I could perhaps trace a ship’s point of impact.
Answer: 257
Rewards:

2 – 4 – 12 – 48 – 240 – XXXX

Type: Transmission Tower
Description: A faint, but insistent, bleeping noise can be heard from the operations terminal.
A garbled distress call can be heard amongst it all, alongside screams and the tearing of metal. The only thing that’s clear to me is a brief number sequence. Cracking its code could lead me to the crash site.
Answer: 1440
Rewards:

1 – 2 – 6 – 24 – 120 – XXX

Type: Transmission Tower
Description: Long ago, it seems, an automated distress call went unanswered.
If I can crack the encryption pattern I could potentially extract the coordinates.
Answer: 720
Rewards:

99 – 92 – 86 – 81 – XX

Type: Transmission Tower
Description: The transmission readout suggests that, long ago, a distress signal went unanswered.
A sequence of numbers has been repeating itself for so long that its imprint is burnt into the screen. An input box flashes at me insistently. If I crack the code, I can find the ship.
Answer: 77

This guide is a work in progress. We’re going to update it with new access codes as soon as we’ve found them.
