If anyone finds it difficult to navigate the text guide, here is a video guide . The description contains timecodes with memory card numbers.

All memory cards can easily be assembled according to the guide in 2-3 hours, especially if there is an established network of cables, during which time nothing will break.

Personally, I completely cleared the largest map (the one where the lake node is), including memory cards, reputation, etc., then moved to the first zone, knowing that I would not return to the second.

I recommend changing “Hide spoiler signs” to “Show all” in the settings. Then the corresponding signs will appear with the memory cards.

Go to the settings and turn on "display spoiler signs" in the game options. After this, signs of other players with the location of the flash drives will appear on the map; it is more convenient to search later using the guide.

Watchtowers also help in searching for memory cards
The scanner doesn’t always see everything, but with the help of the tower I found some maps that I walked around ten times
Then you can remove them so as not to load the network or leave them for other players

Do this trophy last, because... While you jump to different points, your buildings will be destroyed. When I found the last flash drive, I no longer had any buildings left on the map.

If you use this card
Then don’t check map 54, 55, 56 with those in your data.
In other words. The numbers on the cards are comparable to those you have in the game if you number them from 1 to 53.
But for 54-55-56 this numbering does not work.
If you have collected all the cards, but there is no trophy. Find these flash drives on the map manually.
And run there. They will lie there. Three cards will open 15 Higgs diaries.

I collected 55 cards, except for 55 - its slot was closed, but I didn’t pay attention to it. I read that her slot opens after receiving a task from the Ragman to collect materials in the Beasts zone. I went and received the task, the slot did not open, but I still went to check, maybe the card appeared. Indeed, the map ended up in a pickup truck where two destroyed bridges intersect. I took the card, took it to the node, read it, and received a trophy.

If you don't have the 40th flash drive like I did (next to the Distributor north of the Edge Node), then you need to create all the motorcycles.

If there are no letters to find the flash drive, you need to pay attention to orders with other requirements and orders for Sam to this node/survivalist. Do them and sleep in a shelter after each one. Keep in mind - after each sleep, your buildings will break down faster. Therefore, it is recommended to look for problematic flash drives without letters last.

If you already have 5 stars with the Paleontologist, but you don’t receive letters from him, move on with the story. 1-3 letters arrive in accordance with the plot. The 4th letter allows you to see the 30th flash drive.

Problems arose on the 30th flash drive. By the time I started finishing off flashes, I had finished the story, i.e. was in chapter 15. All the characters are 5 stars, there is no plot development, and I received 2 letters from the paleontologist. Sleep didn't help.
Fulfilling orders from a seismologist (for example) for a paleontologist helped! We fulfill the order (I also received a bunch of interviews and diaries) and sleep at the base. The 3rd letter arrives. We sleep again and get 4th! We go into the rift for flash.

Memory card #30 opens after reading a letter with an exclamation mark from the Paleontologist. Before this, 3 regular letters should arrive.

Memory Card #14 is opened after reading a letter with an exclamation mark from Charles Han at Point North of Mountain Knot. The subject of the letter is “I saw this glowing thing again...” , and not “Something is glowing in the crater...” as they write in all the guides. It arrives later than the letter about the crater.

For me, everything happened as follows: I upgraded the item to 5 stars, by that time I already had my first letter with an exclamation mark about the crater, but there was no flash drive in the crematorium. Because the letter is needed specifically about the crematorium. I started delivering orders to the point, but the letter did not arrive. Then I opened my mail and saw that I had one of the letters from Charles Han unread, but an ordinary one that nothing opens. As soon as I read the letter, likes came from Charles Han. Then I made a delivery to him and immediately the next letter arrived, the usual one. And then the long-awaited letter about the crematorium arrived and the flash drive opened.

ATTENTION! OPEN AND READ ALL EMAILS IN YOUR MAIL. As I understand it, this helps ensure that you receive the following letters from senders. If you made a bunch of deliveries to a person, but no letters come from him, it’s likely that some previous letter from him was not read.
In the mail, you can simply scroll through the letter, then the exclamation mark will disappear, but this will not make the letter “read”. To read the letter you need to open it, click on him. Then the letter line in the list will go out. Unread messages in the list are white.
In addition, I understand that email has some kind of queuing system . In a private room after sleep, you can only receive 2 letters (at least that’s what happened to me). And if you received a letter, and you seem to have 5 more pieces in the queue, then you will only be able to receive and see it after visiting your personal premises 3 times.

I return to my case. I upgraded the item to 5 stars, received a letter about the crater, then made about 6 deliveries to the item with the Legend of the legends rating, and then I saw that there was an unread regular letter from Khan, and with it a bunch of others. I read them all, and I began to receive the following letters from senders who were waiting for me to read all the letters. But the letters did not arrive all at once, but two at a time after each vacation in a private room. I had to go out and go into the room until the flow of letters stopped. And just at that moment a letter arrived about the crematorium. That is, without the order being delivered immediately before. The letter was just in the queue.
