Roseum Sinuous Tubers

[CMDR DragonHorn]

Can someone please share a wisdom on how to find these things? I'm on my way back from Colonia, hit the Inner Orion Spur, trying to mop up codex entries, only couple left and this is one of most elusive things I've ever looked for. Read several topics on it, folks say body should have silicate magma or gaysers, spent at least 3 hours scouring every bio site, found none of Roseum but the rest of Tubers from the class are neatly grouped in each bio site close together... Plus bodies with geysers don't seem to have any bio signals. Can these things spawn in geo sites?

Some people also report these are bugged. So, is it possible to find them? Any info or pointers is appreciated.

They don't spawn in geo sites, I've never seen them associated with geo and there are no reports of it, it would be a new discovery if they were, only crystal spikes so far are associated with geo, and they will report as bio sites in the FSS not geo sites.

There's always one annoying type that seems hard to find, have you considered looking in the codex at EDSM for the nearest site and visiting that to see if it working ok?

According to the Codex, Silicate Magma is their only listed requirement on the body.

EDSM strangely doesn't list any, neither within 5000LY of Sol nor within 5000LY of the Nyeajaae Sector.

If I remember correctly, one type of Sinous Tubers was bugged.
That wouldn't explain the presence in the Codex but at least the lack of presence in the public Databases.

PS.
I find it extremely unusual to see all Sinuous Tuber Codex entries for the Inner Orion Spur all stemming from a single System : Nyeajaae VU-H b16-0
All reported by different CMDRs at completely different dates (?)

I'd say something is clearly bugged there.

IIRC there are more than one subtype on each BIO site with tose tubes. It's been a while since I last encountered them, but IIRC they all popped up when scanning several specimens on one site.

Tubers in general are probably The most bugged surface life currently present in the game. Various variants display or register other variants, and so on. There were also bugs, some later fixed, where scanning one wouldn't register them for the region: that should be the reason for what @FalconFly mentioned, that a single system had various types present, yet they were reported to the Codex at various times. They would have been reported earlier, had the Codex registered them then.

If a body meets all the conditions for a lifeform to spawn there, and there is enough space for the site(s) to spawn, then they will spawn there. It's entirely possible to have a planet with, say, amphora plants and bark mounds. Now, there are often overlaps between requirements, but another problem with the sinuous tubers is that if the requirements listed on the Codex are correct (a pretty big if, because they often aren't entirely, but I haven't looked into tubers in detail yet), then there would be lots of overlap there. (For a handy overview of all variants and all lifeforms, see here.) A Metal Rich planet with volcanism could have blatteum, violaceum and prasinum if(!) all three are present in the region, and roseum too if its volcanism were silicate magma. (I'm not sure why geysers were suggested to you, but I wouldn't even be surprised if the Codex were wrong on this too.)

Thanks for replies, I just really hoped someone has came across those recently in their travels and could point me where they found them. Desperation creeps up for me... I really don't want to leave sector where I am now, since there are still many systems left where they should be, but searching also feels futile, since every site is the same and these tibers just don't seem to be anywhere.

They don't spawn in geo sites, I've never seen them associated with geo and there are no reports of it, it would be a new discovery if they were, only crystal spikes so far are associated with geo, and they will report as bio sites in the FSS not geo sites.

Yeah, this one seems extremely annoying one. And yes, I did search through EDSM, which highlighted quite a lot of systems around me where these particular tubers discovery is registered, but none of that type to be found so far...

According to the Codex, Silicate Magma is their only listed requirement on the body.

EDSM strangely doesn't list any, neither within 5000LY of Sol nor within 5000LY of the Nyeajaae Sector.

Curently I'm near the edge of Inner Scutum-Centaurus Arm and EDSM highlighted plenty of systems where these very tubers should be. Some screenshots posted in the webz indicate that these are colored blue or yellowish, but I never seen any like these, only red and pinkish ones on magma (high metal) worlds I've been so far. It seems that any magma (iron included) worlds have exact same set of tubers in each bio site, but lack Roseum for some reason.

"Roseum" is Latin for "pink". Roseum tubers are therefore supposed to be pinkish in colour. If they're not, then that's another bug about them.

Looking at my records I have found exactly 4, I don't know if any are near you, good luck;

At Eotchopt DA-H d10-852, in Empyrean Straits, Roseum Sinuous Tubers, Biological and Geological, Organic structures, Nearest:Biological Signal (2)

At Myriesly PX-I c23-8109, in Galactic Centre, Roseum Sinuous Tubers, Biological and Geological, Organic structures, Nearest:Surface signal: Biological (5)

At Myriesly PX-I c23-8109, in Galactic Centre, Roseum Sinuous Tubers, Biological and Geological, Organic structures, New Entry, Nearest:Surface signal: Biological (6)

At Hypiae Aurb RU-O d6-556, in Empyrean Straits, Roseum Sinuous Tubers, Biological and Geological, Organic structures, New Entry, Nearest:Surface signal: Biological (6)

Ran a 5000LY EDSM search around my present position and those are the Roseum Sinuous Tubers I found :

Iockols PI-B d13-4868
Dryoea Flyao RU-D d13-827
Dryoea Flyao SU-D d13-1558
Dryoea Flyao RU-D d13-1476
Dryi Aoc CH-C d13-4016

Looks like I found the mystery behind it and looks like I'm screwed for good with that discovery. Judging by that: https://issues.frontierstore.net/issue-detail/15062 tracker of 08 May 2020, it seems Fdev put Roseum Tubers in a group with Albidum, Caeruleum and Prasinum, which are yellow/whitish/blue/green. Running EDSM search in Inner Orion Spur, both around Sol and my current position, it looks like these tubers simply do not exist in our sector, and discoveries from other sectors don't count for Inner Orion Spur in the codex. What a bummer...
