subnautica-chat

[amber cairn]

using mods that expand the slots and add multiple tiers of armor mods

i can crash this thing at full speed and not damage it

[stone root]

makes sense lol

[amber cairn]

which is good because I drive like i;m left-handed

[stone root]

is 500m deep enough? im in some place with blue balls connected to the ground with ropes

entering some underwater cave

[amber cairn]

Deeper

[stone root]

how much deeper damnit

[amber cairn]

||Look for green fog...||

[stone root]

what spoilers does this contain???

[amber cairn]

what you should search for where you're at

[stone root]

oh

alright i'll look for the... fog...

[stone root]

omg i found it!!!

tysm, is that deep enough?

[amber cairn]

I've told you enough I don't wanna say anymore

[stone root]

Aw, okay!

[amber cairn]

Where you're at now where will be a lot to do and find

May even consider making a thermal powered base around there to rest at

[sudden lake]

Ok we sadly cant do polls So ill do it that way

Your favorite sn 1 leviathan:
1️⃣-reefback leviathan
2️⃣-seatreader leviathan
3️⃣-reaper leviathan
4️⃣-ghost leviathan
5️⃣-sea dragon leviathan
6️⃣-sea emperor leviathan

Imo sea dragon, i like its design and its roars are scary ash

[last vault]

hate the sea dragon with all my heart but his design is peak

[sudden lake]

Yeah

I think its roars might be scariest, reapers are scary but its, Just in some deep cave and everything you hear is this crrepy sound somewhere above you

Nice choice, i dont really like its mouth but generally its scary and cool leviathan

Bro @amber cairn The heck you mean 7 😭

[amber cairn]

The most dangerous leviathan... is Dark Ryley

[sudden lake]

😭

Aint Talking bout most dangerous but your fav

[stone root]

Well... didn't encounter any one other than the reefback so ig i'll vote 1

Didn't even know there were that many levis lol

[neon jungle]

this is how the first ten minutes went. Find seaglide. Dive deep. Find a time capsule. Realize it had a laser cutter. Find another time capsule. Get cuddlefish egg. And boom, thats subnautica for you

[neon jungle]

update, found this time capsule 10 mins later

[amber cairn]

are the time capsules submitted by players\patreons or something?

i notice most of them have misspelled words

[sudden lake]

I think you can Just ||build them before you leave but im not sure||

[amber cairn]

Meaning what?

Are they content created by other players

[scenic oriole]

They are made by real players

[amber cairn]

Appearing in my game?

I assume they were vetted or handpicked somehow and there is a small list of them

[scenic oriole]

The list is quite big, excpet for mobile which has had only couple of months time to grow the pool. Basically at the end of the game you can create a time capsule. But it has to be manually approved before being added to the active pool. Also there are blacklisted items which will be automatically filtered out of the time capsule

[amber cairn]

Makes sense

[stone root]

what items are even blacklisted?

[amber cairn]

Plot items, super advanced tech and upgrades, 1 or 2 specific materials

Eggs you haven't identified yet (as the capsule creator), one or two rare plants\seeds

Seamoth upgrades (all are blacklisted), the Propulsion Cannon

[scenic oriole]

Batteries and power cells are also blacklisted, but tools can have batteries inside

[odd dove]

Great, all these chat makes me want to revisit 4546B again and wreak havoc. Slam em leviathans with Cyclops.

[narrow pilot]

I thought they got rid of that list

Because literally when I was capsule checking I got a whole bunch of blacklisted stuff

[rocky hazel]

Lowk feelin genocidal towards leviathan

[torn olive]

Wait so if you upgrade modules for example in the time capsule they will blacklist it so no one will find it???

[median valve]

"I'm in some place with blue balls" at first, had me thinking that comment was going in a very strange and personal direction not appropriate for a subnautica chat 🤣

[stone root]

In what realistic scenario will i find myself in a room full of blue balls (suggestive version)

[solemn glade]

Is building my base next to the Aurora a good idea if I repair it? I know there’s reapers, but I mean on the side facing the lifepod.

Because I know there are those big chunks of material nearby.

[scarlet fiber]

if you want reapers nocliping their heads inside your base trying to eat you then idk

[solemn glade]

I just encountered one, I’m less than an hour into my save.

Somehow escaped.

[scarlet fiber]

i stopped playing the game after finishing the red plague mod.

[solemn glade]

Where should I build my base currently though? I’m still in the lifepod. I’ve got a bunch of blueprints able to be printed.

[scarlet fiber]

idrk what else to do in the game

[scarlet fiber]

i built mine behind the Aurora but not in the crash zone.

i called by base: base: delta

[stone root]

I always make a small base below or close to the lifepod in the shallows. just so that i can get a proper footing

[scarlet fiber]

i dont like the lifepod AT ALL.

[stone root]

...WHY

[scarlet fiber]

it bugs me for some reason and just ruins the vibe of the shallow waters a bit for me

i just find the lifepod a lifesaver place if your about to die or need resources

[cyan owl]

I have a "practical side" of the base where I have a tower of reinforcement rooms.

[scarlet fiber]

i once tried to build a base on the edge of the void and i shortly deleted my save after attempting to do so

thing is i just cant do anything in my current save because its modded and everything is infected. i cant even fix the aurora 💔

[scenic oriole]

Time capsules will always have to be manually approved before being added to the active pool. I've understood that if time capsule with blacklisted items in it is approved, the blacklisted items are removed when it is found.

[crisp cedar]

I had ampeel noclipping

[gritty heath]

᲼

[odd dove]

Did it attack or you can attack the eel?

[slender shadow]

Was it too scary

[scarlet fiber]

no i finished the story so i hopped off

but now im gonna do prototype mod

[thorny tide]

Hey does anyone know where I can find the cyclops engine fragments? I'm in front of the Aurora and can't find anything

Well I've found one but that's it

Cuz I need the cyclops to help getting kyanite for prawn upgrades

Nvm, just found last two

[shrewd bobcat]

at long last

[long flame]

.

[neon jungle]

Boys, the forth time capsule has hit my inventory

[cloud egret]

Its beautiful

[thorny tide]

What's that

[shrewd bobcat]

finally beat the game, honestly a 10/10

20 hours of playtime

Yeah I guess but still I enjoyed my time and I don't really wanna replay it

Maybe sometime in the future

Idk I heard some bad things about it so I'm a bit skeptical

[subtle bronze]

Nah Bz is great

[ornate stump]

Are there instructions to make this

[cloud egret]

yea

want me to send it later

[ornate stump]

Yuh pls, whenever you can

[nimble spear]

@pliant mesa Also bring at least a laser cutter, ideally also propulsion tool

[long flame]

finally built a scanner and base in ||tree cove in lost river||.

[sudden lake]

holy moly

[cloud egret]

Its beautiful right

[sudden lake]

yes i love it

i love lego i love subnautica i love it

[cloud egret]

Same

[cloud egret]

Frfr

[sudden lake]

there was lego ideas idea, a reaper leviathan

[cloud egret]

Ooo

[sudden lake]

it got 10k votes and now they'll decide which one out of over 100 projects they will choose

[cloud egret]

I see

[sudden lake]

so there isn[t a big chance but maybe

[cloud egret]

Oh

Where is your base in Subnautica

[sudden lake]

there's 146 projects with 10k votes considered to be made into sets, but they usually choose only 2

so it's very small chance

[cloud egret]

I see

[sudden lake]

between grassy plateaus and underwater islands

[dreamy gyro]

gng i need some help, i cant get the "disable" thingy box to appear and i want to enable cheats

[cloud egret]

Grassy plateaus is peek

[sudden lake]

bro

[cloud egret]

What

[sudden lake]

just writed whole essay and bot deleted it for "foul language" when i didn't say anything i have said before 💔

[cloud egret]

Oh man

That sucks

[dreamy gyro]

someone help me srsly

[sudden lake]

i wanted to say that i was scared as hech, because ||i'm currently getting ready to search primary containment facility, and i'm moving between portals in thermal plant and platform to get everything right. At place i have cyclops, and i needed to upgrade its depth module from 2 to 3, but i have to make new one cuz if i would take old one the cyclops would implode. So i was making it, when suddenly whole submarine just tilted. I turned out, that sea dragon touched it a little and moved it 💔 ||

idk how to also mate

[sudden lake]

but yeah shat my pants

[cloud egret]

Oh

No

[scenic oriole]

Crush damage is so slow that you can take cyclops depth module out, upgrade it in onboard modification station and put it back. You won't even need a repair tool afterwards.

[sudden lake]

oh, tho i dont have onboard station and im not sure to build it

it would still require me to go through portal some times

what i hate the most about ||sea dragon||, is how it can so easily go through any solid wall there is

as i said, i'm currently at ||thermal plant|| or more, outside of it, and there's big rock formation around it, making some kind of loop, and this guy can casually go from one end to another which is so difficult to survive

you think you're safe, go somewhere for moment, want to get back but no, it came from nowhere and now attacks you

[supple knoll]

Ive got a similar clip with the ghost

Tbh that is unity shenanigans for you

Will always be better then Ue5 though

[thorny tide]

Any tips for making my cyclops my base? Storage is kinda hard rn

[kind sky]

how many lockers do you have

[thorny tide]

Uh like

10?

Along with the base ones

[kind sky]

10?
how are you placing them and where

[azure hare]

yeah

it followed me to the trench

[scenic oriole]

Build growbeds for food/water, lockers for storage, fabricator, modification station, bed. Carry materials in a locker to build small charging base for power cells

[kind sky]

yeah that ^
for food/water marblemelons are usually the best bet. Plus something like chinese potatoes for food.
charging base is helpful. If you have growbeds bio works fine for temporary charging but having thermal reactor stuff can also help

[obtuse jungle]

I usually cram the wall opposite the built-in lockers with as many lockers as will fit, then use glass cabinets upstairs. I have a single growbed with 2 sections of marblemelon, one for a chinese potato plant, and one lantern tree.

I’ve got the water filtration suit, so that usually does fine for food & water.

I throw the fabricator, battery charger (I use the propulsion cannon a lot) and medkit fabricator in the small room behind the pilot deck.

I usually put a bed in there as well, but that’s not necessary at depth.

You might find a modification station helpful.

[cosmic sparrow]

help my map doesnt want to load

[kind sky]

uhhh maybe reload the game?

[cosmic sparrow]

ok

it didnt help

thee is still no ground

[cosmic sparrow]

even new save doesnt work

[kind sky]

uhhhh verify files on steam?

redownload?

[cosmic sparrow]

ok i will try

i cant seem to fix it

where

oh alr

how do i click thing in there

my mouse is locked

nope

OH ALR

i just had to open my pda

where is the reload chunks thing

i cant find it in there

nvm i found it

[amber cairn]

Yeah most of them. All Seamoth upgrades and most Cyclops upgrades and Prawn upgrades

[cosmic sparrow]

it doesnt help

bothing happens

[amber cairn]

That's lit, now do it at 2x the scale

[cosmic sparrow]

how

uhm

sory

it just breaks sometime

ye lol

thats what i get

what about the f3 menu tho xd

ye lol

yeaa. thanks for the help tho

[north moon]

Guys i created every véhicule but im too scared to go explore

What should I do now

[kind sky]

explore

[tacit hearth]

3 beers and a voyage

you'll thank me later (go to lost river first)

[tawny tusk]

you can also pause the game, that too will unlock your cursor

[long flame]

i finally finished my 3rd base in the ||tree cove||

[kind sky]

nice

i built a base there once, it was cool but resources were a pain

[north moon]

I dont like there its scary

I dont like leviathans

[north moon]

Bruh they destroy my seamoth like 5 Times

And I got a heart attack too

[long flame]

build a scanner

and upgrade with the HUD module

wait can my cyclops fit through the ||inactive lava zone?||

[kind sky]

yes, ive done it many times

[north moon]

Bruh am i dumb

And how to repare cyclop

[subtle bronze]

Repair tool

[north moon]

It has nothing from the outside but I CAN see his earlh at like 60

[north moon]

I know that

[subtle bronze]

Then why ask

[north moon]

I can’t see where its broke

[long flame]

Alr

[north moon]

No

[subtle bronze]

Maybe check the inconspicuous holes on the outside of the hull. Also the hologram in The front shows you where breaches are

[north moon]

No

[north moon]

Ight ima search

[narrow pilot]

If yall would want to see a new base game biome what would it be

[sudden lake]

Bloodkelp forest

[amber cairn]

I found a ||tablet door somewhere deep underwater in the grand reef, sparse reef, or sea treader's path long ago, and I can't seem to find it again|| anyone know whereabouts it is?

[sudden lake]

||Tablet door? ||

[long flame]

How do I upgrade my prawn suit to mk1

Where

[sudden lake]

Depth module?

[kind sky]

vehicle upgrade module

[narrow pilot]

No idea where I would put that but thanks for the help 👍

[long flame]

Yea, im in th ||lost river tree cove|| and my prawn suit it 900m max.

[kind sky]

you have to make it at your base

[long flame]

Don’t tell me I gotta go all the way back

mf damn it

[kind sky]

make sure you bring nickel with you since you need it to make it

3 nickel ore specifically

[long flame]

Alr

[sudden lake]

You didnt know 💔?

[amber cairn]

So Warpers teleport when they die - are they just despawning, or can I find their corpse somewhere?

[long flame]

f***

[amber cairn]

Yeah, I can tell they are playing a death animation, but they teleport away

Even in Dunes where it's open water I can't find their dead body

Do these ||6 Ion Cubes respawn or is this just a cache of loot?||

I wish there was a module to run a base off of battery power

Yeah but I wanted to build a base near that door I mentioned and it's deep underground, far away from solar, no thermal nearby. I would have to make a nuclear\bioreactor which was more effort than I wanted to spend (I just wanted to craft a beacon)

I don't really need to return to that particular cave

The cave with the 6 Ion Cubes. You loot it, or don't, and get the PDA entry, then you don't need to come back

It's a lovely planetary system

Having a moon that's only 2000m above the planet seems dangerous though

I would post the gif of the moon from Majora's Mask here but I don't think memes are allowed in this channel

[mint gull]

is the grand reef any good

[amber cairn]

Lotta quartz and a few good wrecks

Very low danger

Wait, I was thinking of Sparse Reef

Grand Reef has some extreme danger

[mint gull]

wym

i got the game only a bit ago

dont rlly know anything

[amber cairn]

deep shrooms

[spare sable]

this game gonna give me a heart attack

[amber cairn]

Yes

[spare sable]

i did swim around the whole aurora

and 2 reapers there

😭 idk how im alive

[tacit hearth]

dont be dude just run it silent

[amber cairn]

there's like 8 or 9 lol

[spare sable]

nah idw get one in my face suddenly xD

[amber cairn]

close your eyes and drive the seamoth around the edge of the void

open your eyes periodically

[spare sable]

im still swimming with fins lmao

[amber cairn]

Yeahhh there's a very very scary road like that out here that I take when coming back from out west and it's like that. Pitch dark, no lights, no reflectors. Pulse the high beams now and then...

My cyclops is parked down there, I'm just exploring the map of Sea Treader and south dunes before I go down there

I am using MrPurple's upgrade mods so at this point my Seamoth is so fast I doubt a Reaper could touch me

Could find out. It's comin' for me lol

[proven shoal]

Vertical seamoth

[long flame]

guess what yall

my new favorite biome is the grand reef

both

[drowsy sandal]

uhhhh
alright then- (i guess its a spoiler??)

[odd dove]

What?

[tawny tusk]

bizarre

[amber cairn]

What am I gonna do with this thing??

I stuffed him in a cabinet

[glossy sun]

How do you have that

[amber cairn]

I'm really not sure. When I kill them they start playing a death animation and the cursor changes to "Get Warper" while they teleport away

[somber nova]

Just wanna say Subnautica is my favorite game of all time. Thank you to everyone involved in the creation of the game.

[gloomy wraith]

man i love prawn suit so much

its quite hard and dangerous to make... but if you made it once, the suit will become your great companion for long times

thats the good example of loving reward for hard quest

it gives a players to motivate for playing the game more

[proven shoal]

Guys is the seamoth torpedo upgrade good?

[gloomy wraith]

nah

sea moth's greatest nemesis is leviathans and you can't getting escape from leviathans only with torpedos

[wild mirage]

Perimeter defense is better

[proven shoal]

My base is at the edge of the dunes-grassy plateau border and it's a pain trying to not get eaten alive

[gloomy wraith]

if you make a stasis rifle, you can hunt the leviathans only with knife and airs

[wild mirage]

Hence, perimeter defense.
Reaper grabs you? Shock it, let's go and you can have time to repair.

[gloomy wraith]

yes thats great options too

[wild mirage]

Not only would you need to aim the torpedo properly for the creatures movements, its also pretty slow

[gloomy wraith]

and if you want shoots torpedos, you gotta make a lots of them

[wild mirage]

Or if you just dont wanna be bothered by leviathans, kill them as mentioned above. It'll take time so I suggest you use gaspods instead of a knife

[proven shoal]

My seamoth John doesnt need protection, he survived 4-5 reaper attacks and 1 ghost leviathan

[wild mirage]

You named it John 🥹

[gloomy wraith]

ooh thats the tough one

i named my sea moth to BUDDY

[wild mirage]

My first seamoth was names.mothra

After one of the godzilla kaijus

[gloomy wraith]

maybe it can kill the godzilla

[wild mirage]

Uhhh

My seamoth? Or Mothra itself?

[gloomy wraith]

maybe both?

[wild mirage]

If I calculate the exact velocity at which to propell myself, to pierce godzillas skull, probably.
But godzilla has regeneration, the speed of which varies throughout different iterations

As for mothra, it can kill godzilla or atleast defend well against it, again depending on iterations

[obtuse jungle]

Honestly, once you have the seamoth’s perimeter defence, Reapers are not a threat. Which begs the question: why doesn’t the Cyclops have a perimeter defence??

[proven shoal]

My firsts seamoths were named "Ranger 1" and "Ranger 2" because of the movie interstellar

[wild mirage]

I mean leviathans aren't too big a threat to the cyclops. Also its got shields and creature decoys

[wild mirage]

Loll, nice!

[proven shoal]

Is it unethical to ram into stalkers with my seamoth until they die?

[gloomy wraith]

not really?

but its quite pointless though

since they dosnt gives you anything when dying

[stable ravine]

Uhhhh... I didn't know that tablet is needed to meet the mommy leviathan

Is there a free tablet outside the alien building? Bcz i ain't going back to base to get allat

[obtuse jungle]

There’s one free one, but it’s in the ||power facility||. You’ll need a ||purple tablet|| to get it. And hint: ||you’re going to have to manufacture at least one more blue tablet||.

[stable ravine]

So i need to go back on my base and make some tablet?

[obtuse jungle]

Yup.

[stable ravine]

💀 💀 rip

[amber cairn]

definitely not, it's really pathetic

[lone grotto]

Thats a reefback..

[runic pier]

no whats a reefback

its just really shifty purple land!!!

[jaunty axle]

my damn cyclops just exploded

[wild mirage]

How 😭

[lone grotto]

Skill issue

[jaunty axle]

uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

[lone grotto]

I fw the bio heavy 🔥

[jaunty axle]

stop lookin at that

[lone grotto]

Nuhuh

[jaunty axle]

[lone grotto]

Shut your mouth

[amber cairn]

I killed a juvenile to gain control over the descent area so I can park my cyclops here...

[wild mirage]

Go on

[long flame]

i just got jumped by a fat ah ||sea dragon leviathan||

[amber cairn]

I'm finally exploring that area now

Is it correct that the lava maggots don't respawn if I clear them

Asking for a Cyclops friend

[white belfry]

@long flame rip

[long flame]

idk wth that is

bro my cyclops like depleting my power cells at such a quick rate

And im not even powering the engine

[amber cairn]

you should go outside and carefully inspect it with a flashlight

[long flame]

why

[amber cairn]

see if there's anything wrong that might be affecting your power usage?

[long flame]

nope

oh I think it’s my power cell chargers

[sand lintel]

Hello

[long flame]

sup

[scenic oriole]

Cyclops engine only uses power when moving. Sonar, silent running, charging docked vehicle etc use power regardless if engine is on or off

[scenic oriole]

Oh yeah, those are useless in cyclops: they just transfer power from cells in engine to cells in charger at 1:1 ratio

[long flame]

damnit

Dude im tryna kill that ghosty above the entrance to the ||inactive lava zone|| with my prawn and drill but its so tedious

[amber cairn]

stasis rifle and gasopods can get it done a bit quicker, they each do 185 damage over their duration so something like 45 of them will kill it

i did it with stasis rifle and thermoblade :X that's heckin tedious

also the claw arm does more DPS than the drill

~31 dps for drill and ~50 dps for claw

[long flame]

how much health does a ghosty have

[lethal sky]

oops

[amber cairn]

they got 8000 HP so 160 seconds with claw, 258 seconds with drill

[long flame]

💀

[long flame]

My cyclops got bombarded by the ghosty when I was descending down

[amber cairn]

sea dragon has only 5000 HP

[amber cairn]

yeah, I wasn't comfortable leaving him alive either

[lethal sky]

its dangerous, just park the cyclops at the entry and go with prawn suit

[long flame]

then how do I get my prawn back onto the cyclops

The entrance is like 400 m deep

[amber cairn]

i never built a prawn suit, using a modded game so i can stick with sea moth

[lethal sky]

jumping jet and hook

[long flame]

ah

also I can’t find any crystalline sulfur

[amber cairn]

it adds arms for seamoth as well as mk 4 and mk 5 depth module and other stuff

[long flame]

Where do I find

[long flame]

wut

[amber cairn]

lava fissures

[long flame]

lava what

[amber cairn]

the cracks in the ground with lava

[long flame]

I thought it’s in the green brine

[amber cairn]

no

[lethal sky]

lost river, lava zone. scanner room will be helpful

[long flame]

I have my scanner in tree cove

[lethal sky]

theres at green brine too

[amber cairn]

really? dang I need to look harder

[long flame]

Hm alr even tho I searched for it

[amber cairn]

i explored ||the entire lost river and never realized there's nickel here||

[lethal sky]

but be quick and have some meds because you will take damage

[long flame]

I searched for this s*** for an hr and couldn’t find it

[amber cairn]

claw arm from the prawn suit can loot for you

[lethal sky]

theres lots of nickel 😅

[long flame]

Can’t u use a prawn

[amber cairn]

yeah i haven't found\noticed 1 piece of nickel yet

I'm a baddie lmao

[long flame]

How

[lethal sky]

yes you can as well

[long flame]

I got sm nickel, 2 stacks of lockers

[lethal sky]

theres alot of nickel and everything except kyanite

[amber cairn]

i got kyanite before I got nickel smdh

i didn't know what i was looking for. probably kept passing by it

is the nickel all inside the brine?

just found some sulfur in the brine too lmao. nice

[lethal sky]

you can find above the brine too

[amber cairn]

hmmmm

[crisp cedar]

what the hell

i can!t reapir mz czclops

so its bugged

[amber cairn]

i think my game is bugged out and nickel doesn't exist

[lethal sky]

i built large base at the tree for nothing 😅

[amber cairn]

(if I say that, it will appear to make me look dumb)

[crisp cedar]

i think i won't be taking the blood kelp exit

[sudden lake]

Sorry 😔

[crisp cedar]

im in my cyclops

[amber cairn]

i found a large node of nickel under the brine

collision in this game is so buggy... i left a few nickels on the ground and went to drop some titanium on the ground, came back and the nickel is already gone (sunk into the ground?)

[long flame]

[sudden lake]

Nice and thankfuk ||sea dragon|| on the other side of ||thermal plant||when it hears that im leaving || to find primary containment facility|| but it didnt say goodbye 🥰

[amber cairn]

leviathans been getting stuck inside the terrain for my whole playthrough. the adult ghost got down into the lost river because of this...

[sudden lake]

I hope sn 2 wont have problems of big SOLID animals going through any walls they want

Maybe Just give them more Space

Or any collision

[amber cairn]

it's a really unsatisfying situation in that sense, totally unmodded game and the reapers just vanish into the ground

[odd dove]

Love the game, hate the bugs

[frosty ridge]

[vast bridge]

SN2 probably won't suffer the same problem, because the technology is different.

The clipmapping used for the current games isn't really used anymore, not the same way at least.

[frosty ridge]

Would you work for Alterra in real life?

[vast bridge]

It's old tech.

Here is the distance where the collisions exist. Past this area there is none.

[amber cairn]

they have a lot to offer but at what price?

[vast bridge]

It's a difficult question, the Alterra depicted in SN1 and BZ is a bit different and I would assume it will be too in SN2.

[amber cairn]

much like Lynx Corp from Hardspace Shipbreaker. You have very little to offer compared to them so they get to dictate the terms in a very uncomfortable way

[frosty ridge]

you owe them at the end of your shift

[vast bridge]

Because the writers changed through the games.

[amber cairn]

Ryley is a slave for life (as well as his children and their children)

I used up about 100 diamonds on 4546B...

I haven't played BZ but from what I've seen from videos the followup writers were pursuing very different goals from the SN writers

I think it was a fat mistake not to keep Ryley as the MC, in SN1 he attains gordon freeman status in my opinion... then he's just gone and forgotten and replaced by (someone else)

[sudden lake]

Depends if other trans-govs actually care about People or if they're worse than alterra

Avery quinn seemed like nice guy but we dont know nothing about his trans-gov

[amber cairn]

everyone else see that large nodes still show up on the scanner after you fully mined them?

[vast bridge]

Are you playing an old version?

[amber cairn]

nah, latest afaik

[amber cairn]

it was titanium nodes in ILZ for me, but I also saw it with Magnetite nodes in Jellyshr.

maybe mods are causing this

using seamoth arms and improved scanner room\scanner blips

[upbeat crag]

Which lost river entrance y'all rocking

[sudden lake]

north ||bloodkelp forest|| or in ||grandreef under floating island||

[upbeat crag]

Valid

Me personally

Bulb zone - mountains entrance

[sudden lake]

yhmm

north ||bloodkelp forest|| is epic for me cuz not only it can easily fit cyclops, but also is like 150 metres from my house

[verbal bone]

Northen bloodkelp

[upbeat crag]

The bulb zone one can also fit the cyclops without much issue and I moved my base near it for the hell of it

[sudden lake]

👍

[upbeat crag]

Who doesn't want to hear reaper screeches in the distance and have ampeels ram into their base

[sudden lake]

noone would not want it

[upbeat crag]

I picked this one specifically because there are no warpers in the biome

[sudden lake]

where i live ther also aren't any

[upbeat crag]

Istg warpers are the only dangerous thing in the lost river

[sudden lake]

||ghost leviathan?||

[upbeat crag]

I kill the juvenile ghosts with my fully upgraded prawn if they get too bothersome

[upbeat crag]

they deal like 10 damage

[stone root]

Would you mind telling me what is the lost river?
I'm still a newbie in this game lol

[upbeat crag]

to the prawn

[sudden lake]

50 🙏

well to the prawn

[odd dove]

Teach me, master

[sudden lake]

but warpers can be easily avoided

[upbeat crag]

It's a late game biome don't worry about it yet

[stone root]

aw okay then

[upbeat crag]

You can latch onto them with the hook and use the drill arm to deal damage

Or just

Stand still and hit them while they hit you and occasionally fix your prawn

[sudden lake]

that's why you add spoilers ||||

[odd dove]

Wait, you said Seamoth

[upbeat crag]

too inconvenient

[sudden lake]

how 🙏

[upbeat crag]

oh wait excuse me I'm dyslexic and severely brain-dead

I meant prawn

[odd dove]

Ah alright, it is unfortunate that lost river is not that cavernous. I would love to dance with juves if it is bigger.

[upbeat crag]

It's not that cramped

[odd dove]

If we have destructible objects maybe more fun, like destructible skulls/bones etc

[upbeat crag]

The main issue would be the ghost lagging into the map mid fight

Also a weird glitch that I've been experiencing recently is whenever I fall like 100-200+ meters with the prawn I straight up glitch through the map

This happen to anyone else?

[wild mirage]

Nope

First time im hearing about it too

[upbeat crag]

interesting

oh well then

[sudden lake]

nah

[wild mirage]

I have had a reaper shove a prawn / seamoth through the floor of the map though

I suppose that kinda counts, not really though

[upbeat crag]

similar enough

speaking of reapers, that one time I dragged a reaper into the void and got attacked by said reaper and 2 ghosts leviathans

[wild mirage]

Tag teamed 😭

the enemy of my enemy is my friend

[upbeat crag]

LMAO

I also somehow survived by zig zagging out of the void with the seaglide

[coral slate]

I want to play subnautica again but my seamoth is 1200 meters away and I can’t swim that far, so I’m going to try below zero now

[errant lantern]

1200 meters is quite doable with a fully charged Seaglide

[wild mirage]

That is indeed the correct tactic

[frigid flicker]

Guys how do I survive a leviathan?

[errant lantern]

Drop a lure to distract it?

[frigid flicker]

Alright, thanks

[errant lantern]

Lit flare might work, but the lure device def will

[frigid flicker]

Okay

[errant lantern]

I think it's called 'creature decoy' ... maybe

[odd dove]

Shove some poo against it, especially acquired from Gasopod. Very effective.

[upbeat crag]

manoeuvre em

[upbeat crag]

Isn't that for the Cyclops

[scenic oriole]

Yes, cyclops has decoy tube launcer, but you can also deploy it from your inventory/hotbar

[upbeat crag]

On right

I used the decoy from the Cyclops like once in my playthrough

The sea dragon from the inactive lava chamber chased me down to the lava lakes

...where there is also a sea dragon

so I got into a bit of a predicament and used it

[frigid flicker]

Uhhh okay

[unborn torrent]

what are these growling noises near the aurora

[tardy tundra]

Stab it with a knife until it dies

[odd dove]

Some radio messages might give you hints about what lurks near Aurora

[sudden lake]

just opened a time capsule and it had: 2 advanced wiring kits, 3 plasteel ingot, 1 enemaled glass, and a few other things, how good loot is that?

[slow anvil]

The ship's engine gets a bit loud sometimes

[coral slate]

It’s quite good

[sudden lake]

it's my second ever, and first only had some water and food so i got quite shocked

[iron knot]

does the airpump glitch still exist

it looks fun i wanna try it out

[lethal sky]

you can use statis rifle to stun them up to 30 sec at full charge

[supple knoll]

Or dodge them

Strafe keys carry

[frigid flicker]

Okay

[frigid flicker]

Thats going to be hard

[supple knoll]

Use the thermal

[frigid flicker]

Alr

[sudden lake]

tell it that it looks great, has great personality and shouldn't care what others think ❤️

[frigid flicker]

Thats Probably the best idea😇

[supple knoll]

Tell them that their contacts do a great job covering up their yellow eyes

[wild mirage]

Do you have a stasis rifle, and the will to use it.

[sudden lake]

i don't like when my crag field bacomes a lil too much orange

[median valve]

seamoth gets attacked by large roaring death noodles
Makes defense module to counter this
Still gets volleyballed around between reapers
"Why the heck isn't the defense module working?!"
Realizes I was too stupid to TURN IT ON IN THE FIRST PLACE

[amber cairn]

This isn't looking good for you

[amber cairn]

A time capsule has 6 slots (2x3) are you sure some of that didn't come from somewhere else?

[sudden lake]

then probably without "and some others"

still tho good loot

[amber cairn]

yeah advanced wiring is a ton of materials, 3 gold, 2 silver, 2 copper, 2 coral iirc

In my game they almost always have a thermoblade and water

I did get one that had all six basic tools

[storm badge]

Could any1 give me some tipps what i should do. I an pretty new i just unlocked the "submarine"

[amber cairn]

find blueprints by visiting wrecks. make sure you've got a welder, repair tool, flashlight, scanner... some beacons are useful now and then to orient yourself since there's no map

[grand ocean]

hi

[amber cairn]

"oh the beacon for my base is over there and the beacon for that last wreck I did is over here"

[amber cairn]

you have a sort of soft timer going on based on the wrecked ship leaking radiation which will get worse, so make sure to find and build a radiation suit early

[grand ocean]

does anyone here play modded subnautica

[amber cairn]

yeah im using a lot of mods now

there's really fun stuff to expand the capability of vehicles and add more tiers of upgrades

[grand ocean]

can you recommend me some mods to try

[amber cairn]

the map mod, arms for seamoth, quick slots plus, slot extender, upgraded vehicles
those are a few of my favorites

Visible Locker Interior is useful

[grand ocean]

ok thx

[sudden lake]

i kept one bladderfish in my tank for quite some time, now i'm finishing game and i wanted to let it live. I let it free, but together with two lava lizards cuz they were also at the time in tank and like 5 seconds later one of them ate bladderfish 😭

[amber cairn]

"not sure what I expected"

[sudden lake]

i didn't know bladderfish is gonna be so slow

😭

send prayers for it 🙏

[unborn torrent]

wait what do the cyclops parts need 3 fragments each

[scenic oriole]

Yes, so 9 fragments in total

[sudden lake]

you don't build fragments, only scan them

cyclops you build in one piece

[storm badge]

Do u mean the big 1 on the horison

[median valve]

So this dude's been following my gameplay clips on PS4 and I guess is under the impression "good" despite nothing about these clips indicating such, and asks me for help making the prawn suit. So I spend a good 15 to 20 minutes writing out a whole guide for him along with maps and routes to each of these items he will need. After I send it all to him he says
"This is all really confusing. Can we just do share play so you can do it for me?"
🤣 How bout nah brochacho.

[scenic oriole]

The wrecked ship (Aurora) is kinda obvious landmark. Also I wouldn't consider radiation as a timer for game progression; it basically just prevents you wearing rebreather and other suits near Aurora

[wild mirage]

Lmao

[wild mirage]

This is unrelated but I honestly did not recognize you because you had a pfp.

[amber cairn]

Yeah ecept if you wait too long to make the rad suit, you'll have problems

[long flame]

Yall

Is the ||lost river|| connected as a big fat cave. Like if u enter from the grand reef, will u see the bulb zone entrance

[jaunty wadi]

Yeah all entrances connect to the same places

[median valve]

Steve the engine corner leviathan is no more. Figured the best way to get over the fear of these things...was to hunt one.
Seamoth bait, A stasis rifle and 20 gas pods later, Steve got farted to death.

[sly laurel]

Poor guy

[amber cairn]

Nice, that's how I handled it too. I just cleared the crash zone ones and left the rest alive

[median valve]

Yeah that's the only reason I am doing it in the crash zone because there's some stuff over here I could still use but they are literally the only reason to not come over here. Eventually I would like to build an observatory in the mountains just to look at them because the reapers are pretty cool.. just not when they're in your face giving you a danger hug with their teeth

[long flame]

Alr

[median valve]

He gave me a heart attack. I gave him a fart attack. The scales are balanced. 🤣

[amber cairn]

there's no way to get table coral in the ILZ or LR is there

[scenic oriole]

Lr has it, it's black/green in there

[scenic oriole]

Not really, because majority of the map still won't have radiation (in vanilla, mods can change things)

[amber cairn]

Is there a limit how far the radiation spreads from the wreck?

Sustainable materials :D

[proven shoal]

Is it normal for reapers to go into the grassy plateaus?

[wide thorn]

depends which one

[stone root]

Hey uhh, WHAT is that thing?? should i fear it???

[wide thorn]

ive already killed all of em

what happebed to using spoilers in this channel :-;

[stone root]

I mean the game was out for like years so me getting spoiled is on me lol

[wide thorn]

back in tge good ol

days

[median valve]

Steve the reaper. You know one of the beautiful things about this game is what starts out as absolutely terrifying, can eventually become a challenge to overcome.

[stone root]

Can yall js tell me if it's important story-wise, and if it is killable

like easily

and i don't need some super advanced tech that requires... kyanite?? whatever that is

[median valve]

Wait, what did I spoil? Steve and Sammy are like the two most well known leviathans that most players run into at some point when going to the Aurora to the point where there's tons of forums and videos on how to avoid them.

[stone root]

wdym going into the aurora?? that thing is near the entrance of the aurora??????

was i just super lucky or what

[median valve]

Idk about story wise I'm not THAT far in but I don't think so. And yes, you see Steve got got by a bunch of gas pods and a stasis rifle.

[stone root]

so i can kill it...

how do i get those gas pods

is it from those gas-mask looking creatures

[median valve]

There's quite a few around the Aurora, but Steve and Sammy are the two most likely for a player to run into trying to explore around the Aurora crash site or getting into the shop.

[stone root]

Atleast i know where to look for em

[wide thorn]

everyone used to use spoilers

[stone root]

large room for spoilers is crazy work

[median valve]

Yup. Those big ole manatee looking things. Bring your propulsion gun to grab them from a distance though, otherwise the other gas pods will go off and you'll get caught in the cloud.

[stone root]

if i was you i'd only gatekeep like important story points

[stone root]

uhh... i kinda went to pick em up by hand rn...

[median valve]

Ill advised

[stone root]

how do i use those pods against the steve though?

[median valve]

Open your inventory and drop them REALLY QUICK while theyre stunned. Also this was my first time ever doing this and other people here have done this far more often and are better at it.

[stone root]

isnt the game like paused while looking at your inventory

[median valve]

HA! I wish...

[rough whale]

You can turn PDA pause on

[median valve]

YOU CAN WHAT

[stone root]

oh right i forgot that was a setting

[rough whale]

Yeah been in the game for a while

[stone root]

literally the first thing i looked for, cause i got terraria experience

[median valve]

insert gif related to frustration here

[stone root]

hey one more thing

what the hell does the stasis gun do

never got to use it

is it like electrocuting thing or??

[median valve]

Freezes stuff in place for a bit.

[rough whale]

It makes any fish stop for awhile and you can charge it for a longer freeze

And you can chain stuns so infinite freeze time

[stone root]

awesome

[rough whale]

Makes gas strats so much easier too

[stone root]

well, imma go mess up steve

wish me luck

[median valve]

Oh yeah, that's another thing about the stasis rifle. You have to charge it for a leviathan. I uh....I didn't the first time Steve came at me and he body slammed me into a rock.

[rough whale]

Nope you don’t need to charge you can set up a small stun then use that to buy time for a max charge

They just have odd hit boxes

[median valve]

He rammed right through five shots to the face though?

[rough whale]

Yeah

That happens

[stone root]

where can i find said steve? and what is steve's actual name?

[median valve]

Steve doesn't have a real name. That's his Internet name. Also, the internet names for leviathans get far weirder. Like one of them is named Burger King lettuce or some such?

[stone root]

just tell me what does the PDA adress it as darn it

like the reefback levi

what levi is steve

[median valve]

Back of the Aurora

Steve is a reaper

[stone root]

Reaper Leviathan

ominous

Does steve give off any signs that he is nearby?

[median valve]

You'll hear him before you see him. Also, hell see you before you see him.

[stone root]

Im actually kinda starting to get nervous

[rough whale]

Here’s the Levi map with the names

BKFL is the best one hands down

[median valve]

Yeah I didn't know if I could post that here or not, but that's the Levi map I use as well. Pretty sure about everyone does lol

[stone root]

I'm not gonna ask about ghost or dragon leviathans

[rough whale]

Don’t worry about them

[stone root]

are they more or less dangerous than reapers

[median valve]

Ghosts are overrated imo. Reapers are far scarier.

[rough whale]

They are very deep in caves you won’t see most of them until you’ve got enough to deal with them

[cerulean leaf]

Don't reapers respawn in the world even if we kill them?

[rough whale]

They do not respawn

[stone root]

so i can make them extinct?

does that affect like, the ending or anything?

[rough whale]

No Leviathans respawn and yes you CAN extinct them

[median valve]

I mean really if you're worried about general exploration then you could just take the prawn suit and go Pacific Rim on them. Even the base prawn suit with a bit of practice is pretty OP

[cerulean leaf]

Whoa, that's very interesting

I didn't know we could extinct them

[median valve]

Oh, I thought it just took a REALLY long time for them to respawn

[stone root]

i don't wanna alter the ending and get a bad version of it

[cerulean leaf]

I thought they were like fish, constant spawn

[stone root]

so does killing em change anything plot wise

[rough whale]

There’s only one ending no bad version

[stone root]

oh cool, time to recreate my fave movie as mentioned above

[rough whale]

You do need to keep a special one alive but it’s unkillable anyway

[stone root]

is swearing allowed

[rough whale]

And obviously plot related

[stone root]

i have a few things to say after hearing steve sing

[long flame]

I CANT kill this stupid ghosty

OMFG

bro this ghosty already made my cyclops drain sm power and almost sunk

[weary tartan]

What I see in the corner of my eye half a second before I'm eaten alive

[stone root]

OH S*** THAT'S STEVE

[rough whale]

Steeve has backup so stay alert

[stone root]

can i go hunt a steve without backup??

[rough whale]

Eh 50/50 another reaper shows up

[stone root]

I'll get Sammy at the entrance

YESSS

[pliant mesa]

you "slimed" sammy?

[stone root]

not in that way

[pliant mesa]

hmm...

[stone root]

why was it even removed darn
do any of you watch tiktok??

[pliant mesa]

all caps

[stone root]

just admire at my work

[cerulean leaf]

What or who is sammy and steve?

[stone root]

I ran outta pods before i could get him so i kinda sliced him to death

[stone root]

reaper levi names

refer to this map for their names

[median valve]

You ran out? Goodness I loaded up nearly the whole inventory and dumped it all in one go lol

[amber cairn]

It's worse than odd.. you can really only hit them in a tiny box attached to the center of their skull\mouth

[cerulean leaf]

Oh ok

But just because yes?

[stone root]

i figured that out fairly quickly

[cerulean leaf]

The reason they have those names

[stone root]

i really assume there's no lore reason for their names. people just love naming stuff ig

[amber cairn]

The reddit community just gave them random names and some of those names stuck and others didn't

Steve and Sammy are the two that most people know

[cerulean leaf]

Hmmm right

[amber cairn]

Unofficial

You can call them whatever you wanna

[cerulean leaf]

I assume they are associated with the reaper location where each one live

[stone root]

in what way is the name Sammy associated with aurora explosion wreck entrance

[cerulean leaf]

Understandable

[amber cairn]

I use it to keep track of which ones I killed

[stone root]

i will carry on your legacy

[amber cairn]

Some of them are mythology and fiction, some are just random people names. The sea dragons are named after donald duck's nephews

[stone root]

I just have one question

[amber cairn]

yo

[stone root]

In what conversation did people agree to name a reaper burger king foor lettuce
what is even the context of that????

[amber cairn]

The context is a 2015 meme where a Burger King employee in Ohio posted a picture of himself standing in the lettuce trays at work. The picture included EXIF location data so he was quickly caught and it caused massive damage to Burger King's brand image. I'm not sure why they chose that reference

[stone root]

Reddit just be making references damn

[cerulean leaf]

Hehehe

[stone root]

how did they even remember that?

[amber cairn]

Casper = Casper the Friendly Ghost
Nemo = Captain Nemo of the Nautilus from 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea
Jules = Jules Verne, author of the above book
Davey Jones = Fictional figure referenced by Sailors when they say death = going to Davey Jones' locker

[stone root]

WHY did it cause such a damaging effect that it stuck for 10 years

[amber cairn]

that will be remembered forever

They teach about that incident in college business courses to illustrate how much damage a thing can do to a business

[stone root]

for all we know the lettuce would be made cleaner

is there any image reference

[amber cairn]

just google burger king foot lettuce there is a wikipedia

[stone root]

you guys really do be documenting the most random shi

[amber cairn]

I'll be 43 next month I know hella unnecessary facts

[stone root]

there's a song about it cuh😭

they coulda named it galaxy destroyer but nooo they decided to name him burger king foot lettuce

[amber cairn]

Phobos and Deimos are the moons of Mars, also mythological figures. Samwise and Frodo are hobbits. Most of the Reaper names just seem to be regular names though

[stone root]

maybe not galaxy destroyer, but def something badass

[amber cairn]

then one of the ghost leviathans is just "Susan"

[median valve]

See and here I was associating Phobos and Deimos with assassin's creed Odyssey 🤣

[amber cairn]

Phobos is the god of fear and panic, son of Ares

Deimos is the god of dread and terror

Also a son of Ares

[proven shoal]

A reaper just got stuck under my moonpool

[amber cairn]

It's his moonpool now

Invite him inside for snacks

[stone root]

milk a gasopod of his gas-o-pods

wait a hot second

[proven shoal]

vro

[median valve]

He needs to recharge

[amber cairn]

Need a screenshot of that lol

[stone root]

how do i put a spoiler mid-message

[amber cairn]

Click and drag to highlight the part you want to spoiler, then click the eyeball

SD||GSDF||SGg

[stone root]

ok

[amber cairn]

or you can use the pipe (shift-) near the enter key

[stone root]

as i wanted to say.
the reaper has ||echolocation||???

[amber cairn]

two pipes on either side will spoiler text

[stone root]

literaly saw me the second i heard it

[amber cairn]

Reapers honestly seem pretty dumb and oblivious to me. They take a while to notice me and forget me easily

They also have a lot of forward momentum so it's not terribly hard to sidestep them

But, noisy vehicles do draw their attention faster

[stone root]

Ohhh, so that's what the silent running on clops is for!

[proven shoal]

k

[amber cairn]

If you turn off the engine of the cyclops the leviathans pretty much forget it exists

[median valve]

Can we trade reapers? Mine are actively hiding from me now that I'm hunting them. Then as I moved further in and away from my seamoth, Samantha actually skimmed the surface to get up and behind me.

[stone root]

So their echolocation means jack. got it

[amber cairn]

clever girl

[proven shoal]

It's not the best but that's all i have

[amber cairn]

Simon has given me a lot of trouble because he's haunting the trench where I keep rising up from LR

and Chris is close to my base in Dunes

[stone root]

hey can i ask a question about loadouts in sn?

[amber cairn]

I killed Burger King because he was literally on top of my base where he attacked me when I came out the moon pool

[stone root]

is there like a universal morally correct loadout in subnautica like in minecraft

[amber cairn]

nah, do what you want

I'm using a modded game that buffs the seamoth a lot because I wanted to use it instead of the prawn suit

single player game, do what makes you happy

[proven shoal]

He escaped

[amber cairn]

here i am using the claw arm on my seamoth to collect metal scrap in the cleared wreck zone

[stone root]

Is storage stackable or is it a part of the mod?

[amber cairn]

these are all MrPurple's vehicle mods

along with Slot Extender

you can have up to 4 storage extenders and tey can be upgraded 4 times each in this mod to give +16 each tier

so I have about 200 slots of vehicle storage

[stone root]

I might try this on my second playthru

along with like, a map mod that would be really really convenient

[amber cairn]

yeah the map is pretty good

it shows wrecks, beacons, bases, etc.

[stone root]

wow that's awesome

i asume it's one nexus

[amber cairn]

you can set how large an area around you gets explored when you move around (the map starts hidden)

yeah its from nexus

beating the game without mods once is a good idea, I just stopped caring because my daughter wanted mods and I didn't feel like trying to add and remove them when I played

[cerulean leaf]

Damn u have a lot of bases

[amber cairn]

ya i put a base every 500-700m in a hexagon pattern so there are 7 bases now. and i just built one in ILZ

[proven shoal]

Guys i found a floating black cube in the jellyshroom cave, what does that mean?

[amber cairn]

it could be a voxel terrain defect i.e. a bug

can i see?

[proven shoal]

Yeah

Lemme take a screenshot first

[amber cairn]

i came up to the surface for metal because there's not enough titanium deep underground

[proven shoal]

Just wait a bit, because my xbox is acting up

[cerulean leaf]

That's a smart idea ngl

[proven shoal]

Here

[amber cairn]

I think i saw that before too. probably just a bug someone put there by mistake

he's sleeping... not moving around

[vast bridge]

Where is this?

[proven shoal]

Jellyshroom cave

[vast bridge]

Do you have coordinates?

[proven shoal]

No

But its near the lifepod 17 entrance

[nocturne kelp]

Isnt that the north blood kelp zone

[stone root]

Well hello there

[nocturne kelp]

One time the games texture glitched on me creating a purple chest

[stone root]

lol

[nocturne kelp]

Where is your base?

[stone root]

safe shallows

[nocturne kelp]

Oh then its kinda normal

Shallows are full of peepers/bladderfis so

[stone root]

Oh btw

what's the ideal spot for a second base? i've been wondering

[nocturne kelp]

Uh

[amber cairn]

@scenic oriole I keep asking similar question but, can the Lava Parasites be wiped out if I keep killing them? Or do they respawn like Biters

[amber cairn]

Grassy Plateau close to the blood kelp trench and dunes

[nocturne kelp]

I honestly put my first base between shallows kelp zone and the plateau

[stone root]

lemmie check map

[amber cairn]

Southwest Edge of Grassy Plateau like

[nocturne kelp]

I put my second base on the blood kelp zone (north) turns out it was right up the entrance of the lost river

Why did I choose the biome? I love the ambience/color + ghost leviathans are there

[vast bridge]

Neither of them respawns.

[storm badge]

Where to put ur base?

[amber cairn]

You're saying Biters don't either?

[vast bridge]

Indeed.

[nocturne kelp]

Depends on number

[amber cairn]

I felt like the biters near my Grassy Plateau bases were respawning, but it could just be that there's trillions of them (plus the warpers summoning more from nearby)

[nocturne kelp]

Anyways whats the best biome to secure my cuddlefishes are not getting tasted by a kind someone named sammy

[amber cairn]

But yeah, in this part of the ILZ the Warpers can't find anything to summon anymore.

[stone root]

Hey guys

should i deconstruct stuff like the moonpool and scanner room from my shallows base and reconstruct it elsewhere?

[amber cairn]

There were quite a few. Dozens easily

[stone root]

and other modules like power cell rechargers and battery rechargers

[scenic oriole]

Crash zone is quite good: reapers don't attack cuddlefish but they attack sharks that could attack cuddlefish

[stone root]

and the biofuel reactors, you get it already

[vast bridge]

There is a lot of larvae too.

[amber cairn]

Yeah. Fortunately, it's harder for them to hide, and they don't blend in with the other fauna here

If I keep going back and forth it doesn't take long to clear them out and it's very clear if I missed any

[vast bridge]

||WorldEntities/Creatures/LavaLarva 925 1037.6243 1038 1155||

In both biomes of course, but still.

[amber cairn]

Is that the total population number? That's surmountable. Besides, I mostly just want to clear a path from my surface base to my ILZ base and I'm nearly done doing that

It's troublesome how quickly warpers respawn though. The little spawner entity can replace the group of 3 every 1-2 minutes

[vast bridge]

The warper spawner will be disabled as long as it's active if you actually kill the associated warper.

You need to prevent it to unload basically, so you have to stay around.

Each spawner spawns one warper at a time.

[scenic oriole]

Does building a base piece also keep it loaded?

[vast bridge]

A very good question.

Let me check if it has the IObstacle interface.

It's interesting though. I need to test in the game.

I have a mod loaded by MrPurple which seems to change the behavior of warpers such that they teleport away only when killed, not when taking damage

That's probably causing their corpses to despawn and preventing this from working correctly

[vast bridge]

It doesn't seem bothered by the buildings.

[scenic oriole]

That's kinda hilarious to see it inside the base😅

[vast bridge]

This one is hand placed.

So I tried to build at the exact coordinates.

[amber cairn]

Smart

[nocturne kelp]

They are really rare tho

For me

[vast bridge]

They only spawn in two biomes, but there are around 1k.

[nocturne kelp]

I suppose 20% of them are in the aurora

[amber cairn]

Yeah, the places where they spawn you can find 3 dozen per acre

[vast bridge]

We were talking about the creature from the endgame biomes.

[scenic oriole]

You might be thinking of a different creature...

[vast bridge]

Endgame spoiler.

[nocturne kelp]

I was so oblivious that i didnt know i had to right click to get them off so I wasted 3 meds and died

[amber cairn]

I was testing this mod for MrPurple and never disabled it. It also doesn't work :p

[nocturne kelp]

So I fixed the aurora by going up and down the waer

[amber cairn]

As an artifact of testing that mod, I have a warper stuck in a locker in my base

[nocturne kelp]

Ohh that larva

The powersuckers

[amber cairn]

So apparently the problem with resource nodes not disappearing off the scanner after you finish them happens in the base game and you can fix it by destroying and rebuilding the scanner room?

[vast bridge]

It doesn't happen in vanilla, I made the video you watched.

[nocturne kelp]

I use vanilla and it never happened

[amber cairn]

It also doesn't always happen for me

[vast bridge]

It was a problem with older builds though.

[amber cairn]

It could be related to the way I place my scanner room or which upgrades I use or something else specific to my settings

[vast bridge]

I don't know if you play with current since you play with mods.

[amber cairn]

Or my ancient computer - could be an LOD bias problem

yeah, i'm using current, the mods I was testing for MrPurple are his August updates

[crisp cedar]

what the hell

[amber cairn]

lmao nice

Imagine if the Aurora had crashed headlong directly into the center of the crater and destroyed the entire underground ecosystem

[crisp cedar]

help im stuck in the portal

dont ask me how i am triggering thse bugs

[amber cairn]

I am at abou -675, -1135, 127 in ILZ and there are 3 spots here where Warpers appear

frequently (and I disabled the related mods)

they always disappear when I deal lethal damage to them and I have never found the dead body

[opal tiger]

Question for everyone, why does the cyclops ENGINE need power cells

[amber cairn]

because it should be called a motor

[opal tiger]

But its called an engine

Is it hydrogen based or what

[amber cairn]

as far as I can tell it's just an electric motor that drives the screw

Fun note but lava parasites seem to get a huge damage resistance bonus against collision with vehicles. While a seamoth ram will easily cause 100+ damage to most creatures, it does about 10-15 damage to these guys

[proven shoal]

How do i fix the aurora?

[vast bridge]

You're right they have 90% collision damage reduction. If they were killed just because your Cyclops touches them that would be bad.

[vast bridge]

Repair tool inside the drive core.

[proven shoal]

And where tf is the drive core

[vast bridge]

There is a sign.

[proven shoal]

Dawg i've never been to the aurora

[amber cairn]

Start by going to the Aurora. Swim in a big circle around it and say hello to Sammy and Steve <3

Also, your name is my current mood XD

[soft pollen]

why is the med kit fabricator orange?

[proven shoal]

Why does the aurora have thousands of batterys

[soft pollen]

i think they had a battery charging room but we acnt access it and the batteries spilled , thats just a theory

[proven shoal]

I'm fixing the aurora rn

no

[crisp cedar]

Okay, but make sure to visit sammy

He is really froendly, amd wamts to reach you about your car's extended warranty

A really friendly guy north of the aurora

Brib i just realized how useless is kyanite

And i have a ton of it

[proven shoal]

I finally fixed the aurora

[soft pollen]

built a seamoth b4 the aurora explodes hell yeah

[scenic oriole]

Afaik, warper dead bodies teleport away so you will always have a short window to see it

[amber cairn]

You can see them playing the death animation but you can never find the body

I guess the lore is that ||they're being returned to the containment enforcement facility near the space laser... to be recommissioned||

[sudden lake]

Welcome guys what do yall think bout this

[soft pollen]

i js found a time capsule but it had absolutely nothing

[amber cairn]

Aerogel is a pretty decent capsule gift

[soft pollen]

what tools do i need to explore aurora

[sudden lake]

Stay calm poster 🥰

[amber cairn]

sticks that poster to Sammy's forehead

[sudden lake]

I think benzene is even better as it is harder to get but idk maybe im wrong

[amber cairn]

Benzene's problem is it takes 12 inventory slots to bring one back to base. Or 4 if you farm it yourself locally

[sudden lake]

Yeah

So also decent i think

[amber cairn]

All my bases have a Bloodvine and Creepvine garden at the front door

But it took me a long time to figure that out

[sudden lake]

Magnetite for me was hell to find but then i realised its in some many places 💔

Also mini aurora statue is cool

[amber cairn]

If you can handle the fear of Crab Snakes in the jellyshroom biome, Magnetite is easy

[crisp cedar]

Yea

[amber cairn]

you need 2 for the stasis rifle

2 for each Thermal Power

2 for Seamoth Depth II

2 for Seamoth Sonar

1 for the Scanner hud chip

[sudden lake]

I once went there cuz of ||degasi base||, but then i realised ive never gotten coordinates for ||deep grand reef degasi base||So i came back there and it not only turned out i missed whole magnetite, but i also missed like 5 pdas

[amber cairn]

there's so many ||PDAs in there and they are super easy to miss.||

[sudden lake]

First Time i found magnetite was in ||lost River near big tree with ghost eggs under the animone or whatever its called||, and before i didnt have it So i couldnt go there with seamoth, and only after it i realised its not only in jellyshroom forest, its also in bloodkelp forest quite often 💔

[proven shoal]

How do i get stalker teeth?

[sudden lake]

Yeah, when i was still playing on my first world, i didnt want to get any outside help with anything, and i found all of pdas except one, and i had to watch tutorial cuz it was pda from paul ||behind doors on shelf||which was So hidden

[scenic oriole]

Stalkers have 25% chance to drop a tooth when they pick up metal salvage

[amber cairn]

The large nodes in Jellyshroom will cover all the magnetite you realistically need in the early-mid game, and it's abundant in deeper biomes

Can you drop metal scrap inside an ACU?

[sudden lake]

I dont think So

Guys, can i have a question, what would you think about a person, who have never called any character in fiction "mommy" except ||adult sea emperor||? Ofc question is theoretical and idk such person but im Just curious ofc

[obtuse jungle]

My first time through, when I was ||on the platform in the containment facility|| and it ||heaved itself up over the edge to stare directly at me||, I said “mommy”.

Well, “mother”.

Well, it had “mother” in it.

[sudden lake]

💔

[sudden lake]

Poor animal ||should've died like over thousand year ago, finally someone came So she could died, but first thing you say to it is "motherf-" ||

[obtuse jungle]

To be fair, I was quite surprised.

[zinc jewel]

The online map says there are ||three cyclops engine fragments in the aurora cargo bay||, I can only find two, and i cant find a video or anything thats showing where all three are specifically, does anyone know a good video/set of pictures so i can see where it is?

do i need to move boxes out of the way to get the third one or smth?

[sudden lake]

There arent three from what i know and experienced

[sudden lake]

Youll easily find it somewhere else

[obtuse jungle]

I think there may be three possible locations, but there’s at most only one at a time? I’ve only ever seen one.

(In ||the cargo bay||, that is.)

[zinc jewel]

i got two

[obtuse jungle]

Nice. I must have just been unlucky then.

[zinc jewel]

as far as i've seen going around (first time playing normally [first time actually playing i did a randomizer xD]), if the map says its there, it's there, there hasn't been any that are like "possible locations", if that makes sense?

[vast bridge]

There are slots in the cargo bay.

You can have from zero up to five engine fragments there.

[karmic lava]

Was just about to say that and Ignis magically appears

[zinc jewel]

gotcha, wheres the easiest place to get my third one then?

[vast bridge]

Underwater Islands and Crag Field are safe, sometimes a bit on the left of the Aurora.

[zinc jewel]

wait, what, are all those dots possible spawns?

[vast bridge]

Yes.

[zinc jewel]

and can you link that map? its way better than the one im using xd

[vast bridge]

https://ignis.errorfm.com/subnautica_map/?game=sn

[zinc jewel]

ty <3

oh, i see, you made the map? haha

[vast bridge]

I did.
