does anyone know where i can drop suggestions for devs? i just started playing a couple months ago and i have 2 VERY small ideas that would make the game even better
okay ima yap before i forgort (sorry)
1: searchbar in the pda
2: scramble animation for ladders in bases!!!! like the one in the cyclopes. just feels weird and disorienting to teleport up ladders.
3: ability to put interior stuff like wall planters on the inside of reinforced walls
4: "toggle snapping" as a tool function (like the same binding as the map on the seaglide) for the hab builder so you can perfectly align growbeds and cabinets and stuff like that.
5: something that allows u to use all items in a base/vehicle to build/fabricate
I guess that's more than 2 lol. sorry, it feels like i'm overstepping a little, but i heard the devs for this game in particular are really chill and responsive and i'm a chronic communicator. :)
What made you choose #๐wiki-discussion ?
brain
I just found an unused voice log thats not on the wiki
Sounds like something you would hear in BZ lol
Also a female version of the lifepod 4 distress call
is that ming na wen??
Is the wiki wrong? I can't find the power cell charger fragment
This is in-game though.
theres an unused tab
At least, as far as I remember? I've heard it numerous times throughout my playthroughs.
oh you were talking about that one
Yeah, Ency Aurora Living Area PDA2b.
i lowk forgot it existed but the other one isnt used
Yeah, the other one was probably scrapped for lore reasons. Or something else.
I posted a vid on subanutica if anyone can watch sub or js tell me how to play better it would be aprrecaite yt- landogameplanet
#๐บstreams-and-videos please
They left
shouldn't there be a subnautica wiki that's not fandom? i know you can do the antifandom thingy but it takes too long and sometimes doesn't work
oh nvm that's already been asked. oops.
@normal quiver crypto scam
who say the date for the early access pls i cant wait
No one knows.
As unfunnymancer said, the exact date is unknown. It's believed to be sometime this year, possibly the middle or near the end, but there's no definitive answer if they haven't already stated when it will be.
I thought it was nov. 7 this year
is this something that actually happens? ive never seen this happen. i always assumed you were supposed to explore the lava zone to find it.
Theres no official release date
hello, I would like to know why subnautica 2 does not have a Russian language. Do you have any suggestions?
Subnautica 2 isnt out
That's what I mean.
The game could have other languages than english in the early access but this isn't really happening in most of the games. And about the official release the game probably will have other languages but steam doesen't show this yet beacuse the game is translated when before the release
thanks
no problem

I am an intermediate student and a dedicated fan who views the original Subnautica as a survival-horror masterpiece. As we look toward the 2026 launch of Subnautica 2, I have developed a formal proposal for a "Vertical Slice" Demo designed to maximize player hype while protecting the gameโs core mysteries from "Early Access fatigue."
My proposal outlines a cinematic opening sequence that shifts the series' focus toward "Stage 3 Kharaa Mutations"โentities so psychologically terrifying and biologically unpredictable that even the Architects feared them.
Key highlights of my attached proposal include:
The "Shadow in the Clouds" Hook: A scripted opening that establishes immediate emotional stakes and a sense of "Supernatural" scale.
Tool & Gameplay Philosophy: Strategies for maintaining "Hardcore Survival" tension without relying on weapons or "Stasis" mechanics.
The "Vast Eye" Reveal: A cliffhanger ending designed for viral community engagement and content creator impact.
I believe this structure would help Subnautica 2 stand out as a heavy 2026 Game of the Year contender by doubling down on the "fear of the unknown" that defined the first gameโs legacy.
Thank you for your time and for creating worlds that continue to inspire my interest in game design.
Best regards,
๐๐๐๐ซ๐๐ฃ๐จ๐ ๐๐๐ฉ๐จ๐ฎ๐

Concept Overview:
To preserve the "Masterpiece" status of the Subnautica franchise and avoid the common "Early Access Spoiling" effect, I propose a curated, narrative-driven Demo/Early Access structure.
Proposed Opening Sequence (The "First 15 Minutes"):
The False Safety: Players begin during a planetary descent. Unlike the first game, they are part of a coordinated mission with a companion and a follow-up crew. This establishes a sense of security that is immediately subverted.
The Atmospheric Encounter: During the descent, sensors fail. A massive, supernatural-scale fin is glimpsed through the cloudsโsuggesting a predator that dominates both air and sea. A sudden, violent collision splits the vessel.
The Isolation Hook: Upon awakening on the wreck in the open ocean, the player is met with a hauntingly beautiful but empty horizon. The core question is established: "How can a world this beautiful be this lethal?"
The Emotional Stake: The playerโs primary objective is a rescue mission to the second half of the wreck. This provides a clear, urgent tutorial path while building tension.
The "Supernatural" Horror Reveal: Inside the second wreck, the player witnesses their companion being snatched into the abyss. The sequence ends not with a jumpscare, but with a Scale Reveal: a massive, intelligent eye peering through a structural crack in the hull, observing the player with calculated intent.
Strategic Benefits:
Narrative Protection: By limiting the demo to this "Upper World" encounter, the deeper biomes, DNA modifications, and "Stage 3" Kharaa mutations remain a total mystery for the 1.0 release.
Player Retention: The "Eye" cliffhanger creates an immediate viral "hook" for the community and content creators.
Appendix: Core Gameplay & Evolutionary Mechanics for Subnautica 2
- The "Horror-First" Tool Philosophy:
To maintain a high level of vulnerability and dread, the technological progression should avoid traditional weaponry. While tools like the Scanner and Sea-glider should receive modern, "next-generation" visual redesigns for the Unreal Engine 5 era, defensive tools like the Stasis Rifle or Grav Trap should be removed or heavily nerfed. Instead, the focus should shift to "utility-stealth" gearโsuch as a successor to the Spy Penguinโthat allows for scouting without direct confrontation. A simple knife remains the only "blade," ensuring that players must rely on their wits and environment rather than combat. - Biological Evolution & Strategy (The "Biomod" System):
A central pillar of the experience should be DNA Modification. By harvesting genetic material from the planetโs diverse fauna, players can physically adapt their own biology to survive the depths. This creates a high-stakes strategy where players must decide which "human" traits to sacrifice for alien "Biomods" (e.g., pressure resistance, bioluminescence, or enhanced sensory perception). This evolution should feel earned and visually distinct, directly impacting how the player interacts with the world's verticality.
- The "Stage 3" Kharaa Mutation & Supernatural Horrors:
The sequel should introduce a level of horror that even the Architects feared. Moving beyond simple predators, the world should be inhabited by "mysterious" and seemingly supernatural entities born from a catastrophic "Stage 3" mutation of the Kharaa bacterium. These entitiesโsuch as the Collector Leviathanโshould exhibit calculated, predatory intelligence. The ecosystem must feel unpredictable, with dynamic spawns and tracking AI that prevents players from feeling safe in any "fixed" location. - Environmental Purity & World Design:
The world should return to the high-tension verticality of the original, avoiding "calm" frost biomes in favor of dense underwater forests, empty trenches, and deep-sea caves. The ocean should feel like a living, dangerous entity, featuring vortexes, strong currents, and underwater volcanoes that physically challenge navigation. Land sections should be kept rare and mysterious, serving as lore-heavy islands that hide vast, ancient secrets beneath their surface rather than being primary gameplay areas.
- Multi-Crew & Cooperative Dynamics:
While the game remains a solo masterpiece, the Co-op mode should be balanced to prevent "tragic comedy chaos." New vehiclesโincluding a redesigned Prawn Suit and a large, multi-crew vessel like a modern Cyclopsโshould require tactical coordination. By making resources scarce and survival difficult even for a group, the game ensures that having a friend doesn't kill the fear, but instead creates a "team survival" pressure where one mistake can be fatal for the whole crew.
Appendix: Stage 3 Kharaa Mutation โ The "Supernatural" Threat
The Concept: Biological Deconstruction
In Stage 3, the Kharaa bacterium stops merely infecting the host and begins reconstructing it. The creature is no longer a "predator" in the traditional sense; it is a sentient, biological manifestation of the plague.
Visual Characteristics:
The "Vast Eye" Motif: The most striking feature is a singular, oversized Primary Eye that glows with a sickly, pulsating green-white luminescence. Unlike the black pupils of natural fish, this eye has a fractal-patterned iris, suggesting an intelligence far beyond a simple animal.
Translucent "Glass" Skin: Large sections of the creatureโs hide have become completely clear, like frosted glass. You can see its blackened internal organs and a network of glowing Kharaa-veins pulsing with fluid. This creates a ghost-like, "supernatural" appearance in the dark.
Fractured Silhouette: Instead of a smooth body, the creature has jagged, crystalline growths (calcified Kharaa cysts) protruding from its spine. It may have multiple "limbs" that look like fused bones, used to crawl along trench walls or grip onto ship hulls.
Bioluminescent Lures: It doesn't just have one light; it has dozens of tiny, flickering lures that mimic the SOS lights of a Lifepod or the glow of a Power Cell. This is how it tricks players into swimming toward it in the dark.
Behavioral Horrors (The "Supernatural" Feel):
Phasing/Glitching: Because its DNA is so unstable, the creature doesn't just swim; it seems to "flicker" out of existence for a split second, reappearing a few meters closer. This mimics the Warperโs technology but looks organic and terrifying.
Auditory Mimicry: The most disturbing trait is its ability to mimic the sound of a human voice or a PDA notification. It uses the "Save me" cries of lost crew members to lead the player into a trap.
The Stare: Unlike a Reaper that just attacks, a Stage 3 mutation will stop and stare at the player through glass or cracks. It observes. It waits for you to run out of oxygen. This "calculated" evil is what makes it feel like a GOTY-level antagonist.
Guys don't think that I copied it by Chat GPT ideas Ideas are my own I just converted them into text using AI because typing here takes a lot of time
This chat is for talking about the wiki
Sorry I am new to discord where can I post my idea Please help me
Better off using #subnautica-2-chat
Additionally I would put all of this text into a Google Document
Instead of directly into chat
Thanks for suggestion
Last night I was thinking about the upcoming games and it went way too far
<@&85343211593166848> 
<@&85343211593166848> again
Is the subnautica releasing on may 2026 true?
Not confirmed, also this is the wrong channel
what is the channel
thanks
Iโm sure thatโs not gonna be tedious and annoying to do
How long will it take to include the continued history of the Kharaa bacterium (continued from Voices from Beyond) in the Wiki entry of Kharaa?
The general consensus is that the wiki team isn't moving sites.
Bro help im scared to found a reaper is my first tyme playing subnautica
๐ breath while it goes in
[[MediaWiki:Wiki-navigation]] probably needs to be changed, I don't think we changed it when the BZ Wiki originally got merged with the main wiki.
@late island @sharp oak @remote leaf What do you think we should add? Also, we have a lot of disambiguation pages, would it be easier to just document the exact same content in both games on the same page?
I have wanted the latter thing for awhile
Every other wiki I have seen never separates things between game releases if they are basically the same
It just makes navigating a pain
Like, I understand not doing that for content that is similar in both games but visually or functionally different.
But like, for example: [[Bar Table]], it's the same in both games.
The same can be said for a lot of items and some fauna
Coffee barely has a difference between the two besides stats
Yeah, Titanium is the same, it only differs with quantity in recipes and whatnot.
It made sense back when the wikis were split between games
Really the question is, what pages SHOULD be separate
as that was an immediate way to separate the granular differences
it's more complicated now though
(though who knows how the general wiki situation may shift in the future)
If we don't want most of these pages split we're definitely going to have to reformat a lot of them
why does the wiki say there's currently 4 known bulb zone cave systems? as if the number/location of bulb zone caves is subject to change?
Most likely a left over from early access
<@&85343211593166848>
I thought of something that might be genius
What if you add a plant that let's you make paper so you can write down you own notes or make books and you can also use the paper to make a map
there isn't really a dedicated suggestion channel here
if it's something to add to sn2, suggest it on the nolt page, or talk about it in #subnautica-2-chat
sn1 or bz aren't really taking suggestions because, well, yknow...
but also while on the topic, I don't think that makes sense? we have digital pdas with seemingly infinite storage, or at least more than enough
kind of how robin made her own notes
Well, the PDA's are in emergency mode, it might make sense that we could write our own notes in it, but unless Riley is the one writing all PDA entries for everything we scan, then that might've been a feature that was missing from emergency mode.
I definitely think the idea is good, but I just think that the feature would work better if implemented into the pda. It seems a bit weird that you can take pictures (even in emergency mode) but not write down important details for yourself.
I fear making paper notes out of a plant would add unnecessary clutter to storage, when it could almost exactly as well be digital.
But maybe a discussion better suited for the sn2 chat, for others' opinions?
Hello guys I played subnautica: below zero in mobile, it's nice to meet you guys!
what if 4546B is real
If it's real, then [[Planet 4546B]] will eventually have a link to [[wp:Planet 4546B]].
so I just checked something and
Uh so how long has Sam's voice actor been listed as her og VA from the old story?-
I just edited it, linked to her imdb page instead though,
Since it was added probably.
We mustn't have gotten around to updating it since they changed the story.
It's be cool if someone took the time to go through every track in Below Zero and write down their in game titles. Then we could add that to wiki.
Like how The Void is called "Spectre" in-game, or how This Planet is Cursed was called "Terror from the Deep"
Okay I started it, some of them are labelled with a question mark because I couldn't find their name online
I can rip through the game files and see if I can extract the audio or their names or something.
That'd be peak, yes please,
My lazy ahh is too tired to go through every biome with devug open xD
Okay, there's no text file containing the song data or anything, so I'll use ILSpy to try and dig through some decompiled assembly code.
Gotcha
Someone must be spamming bot stuff here, cause everytime I come back it says someone has spoken here, but there's nothing new.
I'll try looking again soon, I got sidetracked with something else.
The bots really love this channel and it annoys me cause I like talkin with communities about wiki
Do the bots like the other channels as well, or just this one?
I notice people in general seem to go to this channel first. Despite it being so low on the channel list.
My other wiki I work on had to remove its discord channel cause people would ignore the giant "THIS IS NOT TECH SUPPORT" text.
My current theory is channels with "wiki" in their name have an anomalous property that draws people in.
no idea how they decide which channels to post in but it's often the lesser used ones like this one
I wonder if there are any invite links for this server that point to #๐wiki-discussion .
I just checked, and it seems like one needs the Manage Server permission to answer my question.
The Discord Chat module on the Wiki points to #announcements, so I'm not sure.
Added a bunch of sn2 concept art to the concept art page
Damn, someone really wants people to check their bio.
boo
didnt know this channel existed
and even if we dont end up using this specific miraheze wiki i think its a really, really good idea to switch away from fandom for subnautica 2
it said to come here in the warning
to talk about collaborating on a wiki
My recommendation is to chat directly to the Wiki Keepers, especially if you're interested in wiki contributions, @loud turret. They're all in here ๐ I might ping one of them (sorry in advance), in case you'd like to speak privately about providing contributions. @manic field
I am simply the best wiki keeper. (not really)
We're already in the process of writing content for Subnautica 2 for the wiki, we have to wait before announcing if we'll be having a separate wiki for Subnautica 2, and where it will be hosted and whatnot.
So, feel free to contribute to the main Subnautica Wiki for now, until we have further information we can share.
Great. I'll let you know. I do want to contribute to the Subnautica 2 wiki when it eventually releases
Guys, if they keep asking us, maybe we should look at their bio? (Don't actually)
looking at this page for the first time in a while
hmm
I wonder if there'd be a way to condense this into a calculator of some sort, to better see the end result of given modifiers
thereโs a crazy thing going on on the Cyclops page that seems very excessive and confusing lol https://subnautica.fandom.com/wiki/Cyclops#Energy
I don't even think it's bad to have this information there but there has to be a better way
surely
it's actually kinda scary
No itโs not bad info to have it just seems like an insane way to do it
Someone added it in 2023
that's at least a few extra bytes
apparently that was like the first thing this user ever did on the wiki, and one of the last. sudden stroke of inspriation I guess
https://subnautica.fandom.com/wiki/Thermal_Plant_(Subnautica) they also did it to the thermal plant page
This guy is a single issue editor
11 edits in total
8 of them on the Cyclops page
1 on the cyclops sonar
1 on cyclops thermal reactor
Then just one more on the thermal plant
makes wiki account
makes worst tabbers known to man
refuses to elaborate
leaves
the thermal plant one doesn't have tabbers it's just a raw always open 75-item list
Oh wow I hadnโt seen that
the tabber one might be our fault for opening the door to recursive tabbers as much as we did
I will take the blame
Teenage me learned what a tabber was and lost my mind
I thought tabbers could solve all our problems
One of my friends moved the GTA wiki off of Fandom recently. If thatโs something youโre interested in, I can send you a link to the guide he followed.
the weird gloop one?
Yep! Thatโs the one.
Yeah weโre familiar
Who is a Juvenile angel comb?
Subnautica 2 creature
oh ok
In the page about ryley its not mentioned that he became a famous author
I regret opening the channel at that moment
Did the bots send something here again.
Did someone enable comments on the wiki?
Cause they are back. #๐wiki-changes message
OH, I forgot to turn them back off again.
Just leave em on
I wish the fabricator category containing the Tools and Equipment subcategories had a better name than just "Personal"
seems like it'd be a very useful grouping for the wiki but I'm having some difficulty finding a suitable replacement word
could just do "Tools & Equipment" I guess but that's so lengthy
I guess my worry then would be if that's confusing to players who only know the fabricator categories
as bad as the name can be, it is better to just stick with what the game uses
could maybe keep "personal" but have another word after it too..
personal tools?? personal blueprints?? something
personal items??
personal craftables? or some better word For craftables
@summer kindle Uhhh, It goes in Biomes?
Maybe?
also where do I upload the images
Aww
didnt even credsit the man...
I DO wanna put in some legwork helping the wiki for S2 though
Even on the existing wiki there's still a lot of room for improvement if you or anyone else does want to help
even if it's not necessarily all New Content
I mean tell me some stuff and I can do it
is "fear the reapers" from the sn1 OST actually not a reference to the song?
it really, really feels like it would be, but there's no mention of it in the wiki, so I'm assuming it's not...?
it definitely is
Is it a common phrase before the song?

Peak song
peak mentioned?!
Benefit of the doubt, add it as a reference
Beats not adding something as a reference because "ohhhh there's a slight chance it couldn't though!!!"
I mean you did mention wanting things to do on the wiki
that kind of going over pages and checking information, and potentially adding or removing stuff as needed, is the kind of thing we need a lot of right now
more than anything else
OH also
please don't spam
yk the cover for the BZ OST?
is there a version of it without text?
Istg ive seen one somewhere
well if you can find that definitely let us know
I don't remember seeing anything like it myself
also
how do I make a word blue to add a link
ALSO, should I link the song on yt or the wikipedia poage
got it nvm
Ok how do I do this
Oh Tab
Like this:
* 1
** 2
*** 3
**** 4
Like, the composer who made the soundtrack?
I guess not.
Lets keep it like that <3
I thought we did, but it just links to the Media section on the [[Subnautica]] page.
How come?
?
hes like
Racist iirc
and a huge phobe
OH ALSO, this dont work
nor does this?
did that Unity exploit force them to remove these codes
I can ask someone about it.
Yes
The Unity exploit led to all branches getting removed (including legacy), and a new update to the stable ones
@manic field If you're interested in the answer as well
The BZ branches also got removed
I'll add rhis
Aw shucks.
The void Chelicerates, like the standard ones, will not respawn, but only if after killing them you stay in the void "biome", allowing you to move freely the void without any worry. However, as soon as you leave the void, reentering it will cause them to respawn. It is unclear if this explains that the void chelicerates, it is unclear if this explains some form of Recolonization as a consecuence of the previous group demise, the vacant territory was naturally recolonized by members of the same species, as it is still unclear if the wold's edge around sector zero is occupied solely by the void chelicerate or there were other leviathans (like the void leviathan from the original game)
I'm sorry what?
I so want to clear this up, but I don't even know what message is being conveyed here
the first part is saying that they don't respawn if you kill them and then stay in the void but they will respawn if you leave and then go back in
the rest of it seems like pure speculation based on how that works
this part I think I understand pretty clearly(?)
The void Chelicerates, like the standard ones, will not respawn, but only if after killing them you stay in the void "biome", allowing you to move freely the void without any worry. However, as soon as you leave the void, reentering it will cause them to respawn.
HOWEVER, what comes after that...
It is unclear if this explains that the void chelicerates, it is unclear if this explains some form of Recolonization as a consecuence of the previous group demise, the vacant territory was naturally recolonized by members of the same species, as it is still unclear if the wold's edge around sector zero is occupied solely by the void chelicerate or there were other leviathans (like the void leviathan from the original game)
there are like 3 simultaneous sentences going on here all at once
It sounds like someone is just overthinking a gameplay mechanic from a lore perspective
I'm getting a vague idea of what they're after, but the wording is EXTREMELY unclear, no?
it should be rewritten imo
On another note
I'm pretty unfamiliar with the common practice on the wiki
this part is already on the page earlier
The void Chelicerates, on the other hand, like the standard ones, will not respawn if after killing them you stay in the void "biome", allowing you to move freely the void without any worry. However, as soon as you leave the void (most likely by going back sector zero's playable area), reentering the void will cause them to respawn, thus preventing it's complete extintion from the game. It still hasn't been tested if they respawn if after you kill them, you save and reload the game with you still in the void.
Does it bring real value to include it again in the trivia? should one be removed, or should both be kept?
(also could use some cleaning up on the wording I feel)
I am just removing them entirely
Looking at edit logs they were added fairly recent and just slipped under the radar
I waas trying myself, but I'll obviously trust you with it. I think I'll hop over to the vent garden page. it's really disconjointed with parts saying "ventgarden" and others "vent garden"
actually, to double check, it IS "Vent Garden" right? I'm 99% sure that is how it is ingame
it is 100% "Vent Garden"
I changed most of the names, but I don't know how to mess with the databank template ๐
there are a few titles, names and links left as-is, otherwise I'd just break stuff (again...)
why is it called bulk upload if its gonna ratelimit you...
Unfortunately, if you don't have any special rank on the wiki, you have a pretty basic api rate limit.
I can't remember what the ratelimit of users is.
MediaWiki (wiki software) default is 8/minute.
Ah yes, that makes sense. I think Fandom set the limit to ten? Or maybe it's still eight there, I remember having to get a Wiki Rep to up the ratelimit for users to at least 20/s.
No moving, only an additional one for SN2
tapping the sign a bit more aggressively
There will be official statements in due time. For now, assume nothing you've heard is 100% correct
I'll say it more outright. There will be news next week ๐
#memes-and-media message just wondering, how come there is no mention of this in the wiki? like is there a specific reason
actually, I may as well add it, if there is something wrong with it, it can always be removed
it might require some experimentation, i've done it while low health and died so i'm not sure of all the variables
Oh is there really no mention of this
Itโs a common feature across the majority of predators I believe
I added this, if you wanna be a professional judge, otherwise there is not afaik
Stuff like that should be in the behavior section not trivia
Additionally do not have "note that this might not work every single time. There is no reference to this anywhere in game."
@primal geode
on it, thank you
so is it fine to just add
"If the player holds any small fish in their hand, it can cause the Reaper Leviathan to eat the fish instead of attacking the player."
under behavior?
A general better description would be along the lines. "Like other carnivorous fauna, the predator will eat any fauna held in the player's hand and become temporarily pacified"
can you elaborate on temporarily pacified?
Temporarily pacified means that it will not attack the player for a short time
I tested it, and the reaper did not attack me at first, but did turn around and attack me like the next second
Yeah. It is a very short time.
Compared to other fauna
You could add onto this. "The pacified time is significantly shorter compared to other carnivorous fauna."
so it's okay if I add
"Like other carnivorous fauna, the Reaper Leviathan will eat any fauna held in the player's hand and become temporarily pacified. The pacified time is significantly shorter compared to other carnivorous fauna."
under behavior
Yeah
and remove the one in trivia obv

saved the edit, thanks a ton for the guidance
No problem
messing with debugging stuff, looks like most carnivorous fauna react the same to eating fish. where it just lowers their aggression value, just some fauna (like leviathans or bonesharks) just constantly increase aggresion so they might just end up attacking you anyways. Stalkers seem to be the only fauna with a dedicated "feed them and they are friendly for x time" system
DEATH TO FANDOM!!!
You wish death to the entire Sn fandom? ๐คฏ 
No, I think they just meant the website hoster.
Yeah I know
Maybe

Aw man
With the game being very Early Access. Is the wiki going to track updates with changes in a way that a user can see items effected by updates on their page?
Like update 1 alters fish a, update 3 alters it again. On the fish a page, it could show mention of each change that altered it. With links to the update pages.
probably should look into tracking things like that
I recently setup something similar, using two cargo tables. One for updates, one for changes. Updates mention which pages they effect, cargo query pulls the changes.
Or you could manually go and update all pages, just sounds like a lot more work.
basically a per page changelog?
๐ค
like this
Correct, page per update. Each change in the update can be linked to a page or multiple. Pages query effected changes with a cargo query.
Good bot(?)
Can someone look into https://subnautica.fandom.com/wiki/Subnautica_2?curid=233624&diff=562886&oldid=562852
is that link official?
no it's not

The Fandom wiki wonโt be updated with any Subnautica 2 content going forward.
wasted my time
Wiki is looking CLEAN btw
Channel description needs updating.

Currently working my way through everything. If you know of anywhere else it's linked, I'll update it ASAP.
I'm also defo interested in doing work for the new wiki!
There never was anything more about anything else here (sorry Donya lol)
#๐wiki-changes will it track the new wiki too?
Yes. We're moving over the the new Wiki. Everything connected to Fandom will be discontinued.
We'd prefer you not continue to update the old wiki ๐ It's fine if you'd like to remove any vandalism, but the new Wiki should be the home and please avoid duplicating content across.
It'll undermine the move.
the BZ FAQ has the wiki linked, does that count?
Also, related, the sn1 faq DOESN'T
Understood, thank you!
Any changes you made before today should be present on the new wiki.
(and if there's anything important that's happened in the last day we could copy it over)
question!
is there a reason vent garden is spelt "ventgarden" on the wiki?
idk
I changed all I knew how to for the old wiki a few days back, since that's the in-game spelling, but it's back on the new wiki, so I wanted to ask
I- uhhh- I see the discrepancies my own edits left
sorry ๐ญ
if any of your edits were overwritten with the edit summary "rebase staging changes onto prod" then that was just a bot edit, I think we reconciled all the conflicts but if not you can let us know or just redo the edit
Hi the page looks cool
Like, what I mean is, I don't know how to mess with the page titles and stuff without messing up other pages and links, so I edited what I could, but there are places left where it's "ventgarden", instead of the in-game spelling of "vent garden"
I think I will try again though and I do want to know how
We can have this done by bot
Have a bot go through and change any instances of Ventgarden to Vent Garden
well that's useful lol
Can I just say this is amazing? Everyone working on this, incredible job 
lol
what's up with the (no target detected) on https://wiki.subnautica.com/sn/Ampeel#Energy_Value ? I added a category to track other instances but idk what is up there
Three months ago, someone updated the underlying template without fixing the affected articles.
they're called Ampeels but the template seems to reference "Shocker" which was its early dev name
And the Ampeel page stills calls the data with {{Recipe2|page=Shocker}}. The template in question is a huge switch statement that selects one of many instances of {{Recipe}}. Recipe2 used to have |Shocker=, but it no longer does.
The solution for [[Ampeel]] is simply to change it to {{Recipe2|page=Ampeel}} (and similarly with the egg line).
Recipe2 will be deprecated shortly, once I update the new template.
I was hoping that'd be the case.
using bucket? ๐
definitely look into using bucket https://meta.weirdgloop.org/w/Extension:Bucket
@agile spindle I unprotected your page for real this time
first time I was on the SN2 wiki
thank you ๐
Second time I was still on the staging wiki
Then I thought I lost my 2fa codes

what do we think of combining these two pages (with redirects) https://wiki.subnautica.com/sn/HTC_Vive and https://wiki.subnautica.com/sn/Oculus_Rift into a single VR page? i imagine people will search for VR info about subnautica 2
subnautica 2 wiki is going to have its own url, not sharing space with sn1

Disinfected Water is a food item that replenishes the player's H2O levels, similar to its less-filling counterparts, Coffee Americano, Reclaimed Water and Filtered Water as well as its more-filling counterpart, the Large Filtered Water. The in-game description states that it contains 12 oz of water, an equivalent of about 340 grams.
When playing...
the icon for disinfected water (subnautica) is broken everywhere
@late island is this to do with the new icons you were uploading
W in water should be lowercase to match filename
Idk which direction it got changed but thats the quick fix
I moved the file back to what pages are expecting
Ohh
idk if thats "correct", but it was easy
Yay I was correct (even though I have no proof because I didn't have time to spell and send the message)
another page some random person made that I didnโt know existed
Iโm deleting this one
why delete it?
Also rq, pages like Fauna list the fauna of the crater and sector zero on the same page, where as blueprints send you to the disambiguation page for either sn1 blueprints OR bz blueprints
Is there a reason for this or has there just been no time to do everything for the sn1 and bz wikis
Thereโs no reason for this collected page of rays to exist
6am mobile brain ๐ fast good
Some time down the line we are probably going to split the BZ and SN wikis so hopefully that wonโt be an issue forever
Did you see how many people were visiting it before you nuked it? It seems like a reasonable class of things to ask about
Idk what the page was bc now its deleted
Like if i search Rays on the wiki or google, now itll probably just give me a lot of bad search results
Its existed since Feb 2022 and had 5 unique editors. Unilaterally deleting it on a whim seems like a bad idea. Especially because now only fandom has a page on rays
Thanks! Just noticed the discrepancy and though to check in with the professionals
How do you do that
Donโt remember how
special:analytics
it wont show anything on new wiki yet though
So how do I check it on the fandom wiki
Because that seems to be completely different there
You cannot
Idk itโs a page thatโs been edited 8 times over the course of its existence
fwiw, if i'm an inexperienced player and see a ray, try to search for it, that is the only page that comes up if i don't already know the specific type of ray name
They also all just come up if you press enter though
being led to a search page rather than a content page is bad ux
you'll want to keep an eye on https://wiki.subnautica.com/sn/Special:SearchDigest - creating useful redirects to content pages for things people are actually searching for is incredibly helpful
yeah, for example i remember during my recent playthrough i was trying to find things like lifepod 7, but lifepod 7 doesnt have a page
or a redirect
if you assume the search results are bad you will be correct 99% of the time
is there any pushback on deletion of all the developer pages
and then you also get smoked on google for it
this seems fine, dev pages for a game like this seem a bit weird
There are definitely things we can do with splitting into their own pages yeah
The collected cache pages are a mess
yeah
i think especially with inline maps it makes a lot of sense to do things like split out lifepod pages and give each a map
map was the #1 search term from when we checked, followed quickly by leviathan
and then everything else was a factor of like 3x lower
fwiw with sn2 coming out, the better approach rn is to just make sure that happens on the sn2 wiki
you want to be really careful with deletes right now, because anything you delete will still be on fandom forever and if its a popular search term then it will keep people going to fandom instead of the new wiki
^especially with short words like "ray"
I donโt think anyone is really looking at these
Developer pages
And they also are just a pain because theyโre all extremely outdated
Weโd do better just listing the development team elsewhere
Iโm deleting them also because I donโt want to set the precedent for the same thing on the SN2 wiki
Which has a much larger team
the dev pages you can probably safely get rid of
@tight harness color-invert was black because of
ah hmm. I changed it cause the black looked bad on delete
thats fine, delete is used 1000x less. I changed it back to black
i think that also changed these tabs
i also tried removing the transparency from bg-neutral on staging at one point like you did, but the alpha on it is so low that you also have to change the actual color to be darker, but then it clashes in a ton of places like ace bg/gutter/highlighted line
I didn't think inverted text was used almost anywhere
it's used on a couple visual editor buttons too i think
the transparency on that color is why random things are see through. MW core theme doesn't expect anything to be semi transparent
yea...
yeah and i can see why after we did it. It's a cool idea in theory but leads to a lot of bad readability cases
i was making individual exceptions for stuff using base-fixed when bg-base had alpha
https://wiki.subnautica.com/sn/Sea_Emperor_Leviathan
just a heads up that the infobox has a Voice actor linked that was probably one of the pages you deleted. What do you want to do here/other places? Removing the link seems fine but I don't know all the cases they got linked to
wipapedia ๐
should her NAME link to the subnautica page
and not the actors wikipedia page
I did not delete her
She never had one
i see
I was not deleting voice actor pages anyway
i guess that section just got removed at some point or renamed
we should make her one
on it
I think anyway
how do i make a new page 3:
I think itโs reasonable to have voice actor pages
related, what about simon re: ryley va?
Not exactly a large enough role there to warrant that
I thought you were deleting dev pages?
fair
I was, I viewed voice actors as a different category here
1โฃ Yes
2โฃ No
wait can we pause for a second here?
this seems like something that is not all that important in the context of the launch
and there's definitely a lot of other stuff we can be doing
so maybe it's a good idea to just table this and come back to it
sure but itโs 3am here and Iโm too tired to be doing actual writing
But Iโll stop derailing
i think something that is really worth thinking about is how youre going to do spoilers for sn2
because i think what is happening on sn1 is less than ideal, and it's obviously going to be something that comes up once people get cracking on sn2 work
At least for sn1, the most obvious case seems to be maps based on what people are searching for. We have coords for a bunch of stuff on pages which makes me think it's fine to just inline maps on pages without spoilers. If people are searching this stuff on the wiki it's probably good to set the expectation that there will be some info spoiled for them
we arent going to be able to spoiler everything, like the peeper infobox spoils a bunch of other biomes and if you look through navboxes youre going to stumble upon pages like the sea emperor/dragon
instead of a red panel on the top of the page, how about making a popup window alerting them and with a single checkbox, the popup will be disabled for 24 hours?
i think that's going to get annoying fast
realistically i think the way forward here is to just spoiler the Story subsections specifically
if you want spoilers at all
People generally understand that wikis contain spoilers
https://wiki.subnautica.com/sn/Sea_Dragon_Leviathan is a good example of that
you also end up with weird cases like this if you try to spoiler absolutely anything related to story
i mean, had any complains about that was received?
(also all the collapsed stuff in general like recipes is just terrible UX)
||Something like that would be better, less content jumping around||
Yeah I have also not been a fan of the way spoilers are handled for a long while
Yeah this tag pretty much gives a spoiler in itself
"Huh, I wonder what a spoiler tag in attitude could mean"
yeah
yea obviously the first thing i did was i expanded it lol
With another one in the biome
If we want to avoid spoilers
Then we can just omit something like the Primary Containment Facility being listed in the infobox
Fair
and at that point you're obviously spoiling it for yourself
yep
I think the passive thing should be entirely removed though
like being clever here is going to make it harder for readers
Technically speakin any fauna can become passive just by feeding it
yea that one seems like something that could just be mentioned on the area page
Yo new channel?
This channel has been here for eons
a smaller spoiler template like this one can be decent when used sparingly https://terraria.wiki.gg/wiki/Template:Spoiler
Oh damn.. Ig I just never got it
this is basically what im suggesting (alternatively just dont spoiler passive but agree its not worth having in the infobox)
Can't we just add a user setting that completely hide spoiler content site-wide
like
<div class="spoiler-content">
...
</div>
to me, the way i handle a story-related entity is to just list out its first encounter with no spoiler tag. anyone want to know more about it would be redirected to the page with spoiler alert
you can, but is that going to default to on? If so then it wont help the readability issue. If it's default off then realistically only editors are going to use it because not many people know about preferences
I think the facility being in a spoiler tag works fine when the one in attitude is gone
yeah...
a simple redact layer that would gone when you hover your cursor on it
i dont love that it breaks ctrl f
yeah thats what i suggested, like discord's
we have a beta-content toggle like this on vampire survivors wiki, it's toggled similar to rsw's appearance settings (eg floor numbering), and defaults to hidden
found an example for my suggestion. do you think you can replicate that?
This brings up another thing to consider
SN and BZ had an experimental branch
We got a fair amount of complaints basing the wiki around experimental and not live
Yeah
yeah it should almost certainly be based off live
that's what most users are going to be using
If we could repeat that we should not base it on experimental
Agreed
I think thatโs just how it was when I started editing
And it just kept being done like that
We should check the guidelines to make sure it doesnt state use experimental
woops
Due to an editing accident there are now no rules
i'm assuming only pc/steam gets experimental and other platforms are only on live? it's similar for vs with beta - we make some edits for beta content, like creating pages for new content and adding things to navboxes (inside a beta template so they're hidden), but on main content pages, we hold offlisting beta changes until after they're live
Making every page now talk about fight club
This sounds like the best way to handle it
I never liked updating live for betas. Infact for SL we just made a separate wiki for betas. In the long run, it was a bad idea
do you keep track of changes that happen in the beta branch? that way something doesn't get forgotten?
like, didn't we have a page for all updates on SN and BZ?
Live updates
Not experimental
Xbox is also a problem child at times
Hopefully it isnt as outdated compared to SN 1 releases
yeah, it's still a bit of an ongoing project (especially for older updates), but we have an update history section on most pages that link to copies of the steam news posts
We did have a page where we tracked experimental changes on a day-to-day basis: https://wiki.subnautica.com/sn/Experimental_Mode
personally i think that can still exist, even if the rest of the wiki sticks mostly to live content only
viuce actore
also regardless of if this is a subnautica wiki i believe all voice actors should have pages regardless
their efforts while not in universe should be appreciated
https://jojowiki.com/
IMO the JoJowiki is kind of a perfect example of a fanhosted wiki in the sense of it being an everything in one situation
it credits directors
voice actors
storyboard artists etc
ultimatley i think it creates a better hub of information
rather than needing to jump to four different wikipedias
id even debate we add NS/NS2 stuff
but thats pushing it
For the new wiki. I'd like to suggest dropdowns to close/open larger folders
For example in the databank, a fold for each of the main categories like, advanced theories, blueprints, etc
Would be nice
Man, this wiki is empty... Excited to see what will appear here in two days
did you manually go to the desktop version of the site, or was it like that by default? (there's a mobile link in the footer at the bottom, if it mistakenly sent you to the desktop site somehow)
Nah, that's the desktop version
Manually did it
alright, just making sure we didn't need to fix something lol
Haha of course
Yeah, I posted this in our other chat earlier, not sure if anyone noticed when I said it.
I had to sleep before I could update it, if it's not updated I'll do that later tonight

Thanks for reminding me, done
Regarding the wiki for Subnautica 2, will it be an entirely separate wiki, or will it be under one wiki documenting Subnautica, BZ, and 2?
Not that I'm an "official", but what I understood is that eventually sn1, bz, and sn2 would all have separate wikis
Thus, I assume sn2 will start off as separate to help with the end goal
I do believe that is the case, yes.
Also, can I just say, that waking up to and seeing the increased activity in here and the excitement for the Wiki and the contributing got me a little emotional this morning ๐ฅน
I've been working on making pages for the voice actors actually
I think I've made two so far
I love telling people stuff, I want people to know things
(MAYBE to the annoyance of mods sometimes, oopppsieeee...)
Even I want to do anythng I can in contributing to the wiki, no matter how scary the real keepers are with their fancy wikitools and knowledge lol
I'm someone who usually edits a bunch of other wikis (not Subnautica), but I do follow the news of wikis moving from Fandom, and I'm happy to see another major wiki moving off from the platform
and it's nice to see official developers also help support the move too
I just migrated :>
I really hope to join the team building the SN2 wiki, even if just so they can use my archive of screenshots and trivia 
never would have thought i get to see this happen
Is there a reason everyone is moving away from it?
Just open fandom without being logged in and without ad blocker

It sucks to use, loading and viewing pages is hard because it tries to load about 5 different ads at different locations on the page
FANDOM does not care about editors or readers
They only care about ad revenue
Infact, a few years back they gave the McDonald's Corporation full edit access to the McDonald's Wiki (yes this exists)
The Corporation vandalized the main page and the grimace page to advertise the shake
Straight up gave a company edit access so they could advertise
They still downplay that issue in their Discord Server as a nothing burger.
Yeah, nothing burger when you allow a corporation to vandalize a main page and delete documentation for a shake
But yeah. You can see why many wikis are done with FANDOM and leaving. They do not care about their community at all.
This is why, basically. As you can see here, there is so much screen estate reserved for ads, bloat, recommendations, and other garbage.
That's also not mentioning the increasingly more limited control that you have over your wiki, censorship, strict policies with moving away your wiki from Fandom, shady business practices, lack of transparency with some recent changes/features, attempted integration of AI, and hiding history, comments, and all special pages from anonymous users.
Fandom took custom cursors from us
We used to have the PDA Cursor for our wiki
They hate creativity
BTW, don't worry, this game has also has an official wiki, and the amount of space reserved for the article is much larger than on Fandom (plus no advertisements!)
To be fair, custom cursors do cause some accessibility issues
doesn't absolve them from the fact that the customization policy is still pretty restrictive
Seeing wikis like this again reminds me of the Gamepedia days.
Although Gamepedia had adverts, they had maybe two or three minor advertisements?
yeah, and wiki.gg wikis remind me of gamepedia too
yeah, wiki.gg is like this too
honestly, I'd say whatever today is, I'd consider it as the potential golden age of wikis, with more wikis moving out of fandom
or often starting outside of it
and I feel like collab between devs and editors, as well as the number of editors, increases with more wikis moving out from fandom, which is always a great thing
Hello guys! Thank you for the work you're doing. i just wanted to check if this is supposed to happen? it's not the first time I've not been able to access websites on my uk eduroam, but might be good for you to know that the website has been flagged :(
I blame Alterra
In my terminal:
> nslookup wiki.subnautica.com
Server: 192.168.1.1
Address: 192.168.1.1#53
Non-authoritative answer:
wiki.subnautica.com canonical name = weirdgloop-unknownworlds.org.
Name: weirdgloop-unknownworlds.org
Address: 25.25.25.25```
and 25.25.25.25 is UK Ministry of Defence, rip
UK hates us. Damn.
lol..I think they have a very very sensitive filter
probably because of a lot of AI generated websites atm
for instance, almost no lovable made website can pass
what is eduroam in this context? Like the educational wifi network?
Sorry yes it's like a European wide wifi thing, where if you're a student/staff you get an account and the purpose is that you should be able to connect to wifi anywhere in europe near an educational institution
for many of us students who live in student accommodation, it's our day-to-day wifi
Isn't it normal for those to block websites like this?
wikis of games? no not really
or give me another website i can try?
to me that sounds weird
we have eduroam in the states as well, I think it goes through the normal institution firewall. Can you navigate to subnautica.com?
Well, any random website, especially a new one, would reasonably trigger it
yeah that's fine!
didn't know it was in the states, cool!
yeah that works
hmm yes maybe because it's new
okay that is using the exact same setup but its an older domain so that must be it
you can try asking your university IT to see if they can unblock it
yeah was thinking of that but i think it's uk wide..
they will be able to tell you more
Send a complaint to the royal family
true but last time i didn't get a helpful reply rip
the admin at my uni sucks
great idea!! will send a letter of complaint!!
dear king, please fix wiki subnautica
Could create a mirror to link from a doman your uni likes.
Weird, I'm on eduroam currently and the wiki isn't blocked for me
really?? this is news to me! might be oxford then
You could try DNS 1.1.1.1

is there a reason for the clears on pages like https://wiki.subnautica.com/sn/Creepvine_(Below_Zero) that push the databank section way way down the page? I've noticed clears being used a lot in ways that seem to leave a lot of blank space on my monitor at least
im happy to get rid of any like this if I stumble across them, but just want to make sure there's not some reason theyve been sprinkled around
ive slowly been phasing these out as well! I think we used to use them to resolve some funky page formatting but currently they just make the pages look worse
sounds good, i can help get rid of them when I stumble on them
On Fandom the databank table would get screwed up heavily if it was squished next to the infobox.
Of course, we don't have to worry about that now, so it's just an old thing we can stop doing now.
So like any ideas on what the large submarine will be in sub2
Get out of wiki discussion
no need to be rude, just kindly redirect them to #subnautica-2-chat

When is the wiki coming out
apparently *launching today, but they will provide the link when they are ready
for now we can only wait patiently and let them do their thing in peace
https://wiki.subnautica.com/sn/ 1 and BZ are here
noooo I want the s2 so I can see all the leviathans!!!!!
Actually I change my mind I lowkey want it to be a surprise
Well the sn2 wiki isn't going to automatically have all the information, it's a community effort!
Oh yeah forgot about that
now that the new wiki's out, if you want to do something like this, it has bucket (wg's version of smw/cargo-type data storage/queries), so you could look into making something using that - https://meta.weirdgloop.org/w/Extension:Bucket
I've been researching them. I'd like to help with the wiki if I can pull myself away from the game when it releases.

Hi there! We see you've been editing a lot on the Fandom wiki; Official support has however been moved to https://wiki.subnautica.com/sn/ and https://wiki.subnautica.com/sn2/, so we recommend taking all of your edits there
with SN2 edits specifically going on https://wiki.subnautica.com/sn2/ rather than the other one
also be sure any information you're adding before tomorrow isn't sourced from leaked copies of the game
I honestly only want to make sure you meant to post the link, since no dev like Donya or anyone has posted it in like announcements or anything, instead saying only
well provide the link when it's ready
We're soft launching in this channel first โค๏ธ
Oh okay, I didn't know. Thank you!
the SN2 wiki is ready to edit, we just don't want to go straight to a ping/reddit post since its basically empty still. Those will come with the full game release
That makes sense, yeah
subnautica 2 wiki lfg 
Hey are we still doing voice actor pages
I can see all the past changes and syntax is that intentional?
Yeah pretty sure
interesting choice
yup, that's how most wikis outside of fandom work, nearly everything is publicly viewable and you can even edit most pages without even needing an account
I've done like
Five
I'm scared someone tell me to stop
Itโs good!
https://wiki.subnautica.com/sn/Air_Bladder?diff=prev&oldid=564592 this is probably worth adding to other pages that also exist on sn2
that adds the (2) in the icon slot
Anticipating the Josh Keaton wiki page Donya...
for items/vehicles/etc icons, are the devs providing it? i can export / upload them if needed
I think the icons for stuff will be handled differently with UE5 games compared to Unity. But I'll ask.
@clear shell hello.
anyone interested in creating some basic content for the pages in the sidebar? Right now they go to blank pages, which is going to be pretty confusing on launch
i don't think they need anything crazy or specific, just "Wrecks are explorable locations where resources can be found" level so that when people go to the page it isnt
There is currently no text in this page. You can search for this page title in other pages, search the related logs, or create this page.
Id be down just point me in the direction and I'll do it
https://wiki.subnautica.com/sn2/ the sidebar here
so just, like
wreck info??
Yeah just make a basic page
Having something makes it sooo much easier for people to add to it
Blank pages are intimidating
Yep. Most of those links are just to blank pages right now
So yeah just a general "wrecks" page with a little bit of text. No need for a table or list or anything like that
Just click anything in the sidebar and see if it's blank
so just a blurb
Yeah just write whatever you know about wrecks in sn2
Perfect
Uppercase Coal Gardens
Gotcha
for what it's worth, when you don't know the location for something (or any info) you can just write the sentence to not include that information rather than leaving a place for people to fill it in later. Or you can say "It is not known where [thing] is found."
And don't forget periods
MOVE Bro
i would focus on the sidebar stuff. If you dont know anything about a red link, it's best to just leave it blank
oh what the heck. That's some scuffed css
Ok Define Sidebar, all I have for Sidebar is wrecks
do you mean like
Databanks etc?
this sorry!
yeah, all those links!
those are the important ones since they look like they exist and they'll be visited pretty often
@supple wedge, your Discord tag doesn't match the wiki user "DoktorWeedus".

i have no clue how that bot works tbh
Well, I don't think you get a role for verifying on the wiki.
it seems very confusing though
Because you already have access to this channel.
Usually that feature is used for servers that are locked down for verified wiki users.
it doesn't actually do anything here unless you're admin I think
Yeah.
an hour twenty ooooo
Im gonna find that deepwing
and im gonna WRITE ABOUT IT!
Dibs on writing for it
ive been a wiki person since 2024 ๐ญ
Just not THIS one
Me watching as everyone hops on Subnautica 2 and write wiki articled while I'm stuck at college
this photo is amazing tho
sorry Iโve been the only person making these pages lol
can i play subnautica 2 with my friend when i play on xbox gamepass and he on steam?
oml that one guy is LOCKED IN on the wiki, just the entirely wrong one ๐ญ
yes but this is really not the place for these
#subnautica-2-chat will have to do
also the pins and discords own search function in the sn2 chat, along with https://discord.com/channels/85342800492634112/1497212756674478220 and https://discord.com/channels/85342800492634112/220252976390995969
answer 99% of all questions
yes
aight-
do you guys prefer plain lists for the equipment or rather a kinda table - ยด
actually i could also set up a little test build on my user page for both options
ive done this stuff on wikis for months i have a system i developed over time
ill do plain for now and see if ill set the previews up later
We usually end up building tables for those kinds of pages but since we're still setting everything up on the SN2 wiki a list should be just fine
more important to get the info on pages first then make it look nice
i often do it for employees and equipment in certain ways but ill do that stuff when we have the basics down
adding a basic page for Alterra rn
with the info from the PDA
Hey, for gameplay questions please ask in #subnautica-2-chat , you are more likely to get a response there ๐
ok the wiki automaticly closing the link brackets is tripping me up rn lol
Oh yeah, I hate that as well
is the wiki up yet or no
been up a good while
It's up! We're still working on adding information to it, though. It's a big community effort
well you have me
my literalt main job on several wiksi is doing faction info lol
doing that got me mod rights once lol
but i do it on like 8 or 9 wikis i think
I shall be free soon from college and can start editin things
its also pretty relaxing to have a fresh start for this wiki without all the info from the old games making it messy
oh hey the game mentions Ryley lol
one of the Acronyms in the PDA entry
BLR: Be Like Ryley
and the text at the end of the entry is about him surviving the first game
I believe I also heard NoA talk about him not becoming a motivational speaker and instead going on another adventure
the PDA History entry mentions our worlds PDAs
these oneshttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Personal_digital_assistant
A personal digital assistant (PDA) is a multi-purpose mobile device which functioned as a personal information manager. Following a boom in the 1990s and 2000s, PDAs were mostly displaced in the early 2010s by the widespread adoption of smartphones and tablet computers. In particular, smartphones based on iOS and Android took their place, causin...
those are now canon
we have lore for smth from the 21st Century
@remote leaf@jade solstice Under the advanced preferences auto-closing brackets can be disabled
Got it
can someone text me the names of the possible starter characters rq im mid game doing pda stuff
one pda entry mentions the SR3 Stryker from Natural Selection 2
and how the Multitool is its civilian version
ill also set up smth for the TSF info we got later after i get a basic alterra page done
or no at the same time as usual lol
would be nice to have a link back to subnautica 1 main page in https://wiki.subnautica.com/sn2/
just like how subnautica 1 wiki links to subnautica 2 mp
just needs the gadget/template/module copied over
yeah
functionally speaking, are subnautica 1 and 2 wikis completely separate?
as in, like no shared templates between the two?
Yes, they are separate
Recommendation: Page about silver in SN2 would probably do numbers ๐ซฃ
got it
there is one, https://wiki.subnautica.com/sn2/Silver, though it needs to be filled out
I mean, every page starts somewhere
I see lots of people asking for locations
for silver
I don't actually own the game ๐ซฃ but if anyone who knows where silver is can edit that page or just share the location here that would be extremely helpful
its in a cave when u go north from ur lifepod about 150 to 200metres where u find a cable going down the cave
trawling the chat this is the best description I can find for silver location
okay I made a basic edit on where to find silver
@clever blade legend thank you for the picture!
No problem happy to help!
Does anyone know if theres a keybind to disable the HUD for future pictures?
dunno if you still need it but ill put it here for anyone who does:
made a minor edit to the quartz page
also is anyone able to set up a page for coral domes i dont know how ;-;
the big secret to wiki editing is find a page that is similar to the one you want and copy paste it and change it
good info to make sure is on the wiki
@olive coyote each page has an edit button at the top
ah
how do i create a subcategory i found a cave with quartz
what do you mean by subcategory
waxmoons, halfmoons, harvestmoons and bluemoons seem to have schooling behaviours can anyone confirm or am i just delusional 
they dont seem to continue schooling after being spooked though unlike irl fish
this
jesus whats next Sailormoons?
should work via editing
To the tadpole page: one fragment can be found 100m from the base farther from the tree below the cliff edge, another can be found 30m from the Old Habitat
the third one is 150m northeast from the Old Habitat
if you go from the lifepod towards 240 and 255 at 224m you find a large quartz deposite
looks like everyone is asking about lead now ๐
@ornate plume login/create account in the top right
the 10 min slow mode is killing me in #subnautica-2-chat but it would be more chaos without it
when we have more gathered info ill also prob set up a page specificly for the Colony crew we are part off
I think I might already be logged in when I look at it, but it's not letting me upload the image haha
Am I doing smth wrong?
oh its the stupid temp account thing. click exit session
Ahhh I see, thank you! Then I can make a proper account now xd
the temp account stuff is pretty new and its weird cause its like a fake account but it takes away the create account button
Yeah that is a bit weird - the wiki on its own website is pretty new right? So I guess that's something that can be updated maybe xd
I managed to create an account now, thanks for the help!
yeah I'm one of the people who hosts the wiki. I've created an issue to track this unintuitive interaction so hopefully it'll be fixed soon
Can someone add the fact that to repair the fabricator you need to actually build one in a base?
How do I transmit electricity from hydroelectric turbines to my base?
you can just click edit on https://wiki.subnautica.com/sn2/Fabricator and add it
why is everyone asking for console commands? I've only played a few hours of SN1
Oh god, what is that.
THE DEEPWING!
the deepwings seem to
follow a line?
I think
im approaching these wiki entries a bit like
a whats it called
Wildlife documentary
Not a bird
wrong chat, shoo
alterra page is making progress
external links look a little wrong
show?
they look like this
there should be taht little box after that indicates that it links outside of the site
it either shows like that or the link becomes white and shows the box properly
the space for it is still there but idk maybe my browser is just bugging
https://wiki.subnautica.com/sn2/Titanium_Ingot does anyone know where to find this and can add it to the page?
what page is this on
the whats it called
nvm i seems that my browser was just screwed up
