Never click spam links. You don't know what they'll contain.

I knew exactly what bad stuff it would try (and mostly fail) to do.

Hello ! I have to a Game Doc of subnautica for a school project and i'm kind of stuck with the description of the graphism (like a more precise term than "detailled cartoon"), i don't know if there are any topic on the wiki (didn't found it) but if someone have a link for, it would be really helpfull !

heady gulch
#

hm, that is a tough one honestly.

#

I don't know how to describe it really either, looking at individuals like humanoids, it has a sort of cartoonish exaggeration aspect that gives the characters a lot of personality.

#

but in other areas of the game, it feels like the design is more around realism, example being the looks and feels of the Precursors/alien architecture. Although the entire world is alien.

heady gulch
# brave heart Hello ! I have to a Game Doc of subnautica for a school project and i'm kind of ...

I would call it Pseudo-realism, not in a way meant to call it a sham. But, some aspects of the game look passable as "realism", while other aspects like human characters, are more of an expressive artistic take instead of realism. Pseudo-realism to an extent. Since so much of the game is foreign with its fauna and flora design, who are we to say that the peeper's appearance in game is exaggerated or "unrealistic"? There's no real world peeper to compare it off of to deem the game's presentation of it as "exaggerated art style",

hey i got a lore question that i need answers for. so are the mushroom caps on the tree mushrooms a separate species growing on the coral trunk similar to how tree leeches grow on side or are they a part of the coral? parts of the wiki suggest they're a part of the coral while the databank entry suggests that they're two species.

The channel description still mentions the Below Zero wiki. I think that should be removed.

we should leave it to remember the good times

i love looking up lantern fruit only to be taken to a disambiguation page, and then after having specified the game and wanting to go to the page on the lantern tree i get taken to another disambiguation page, and then after that i click on the link to go to the lead page only to be taken to yet another disambiguation page

#

it's so much more convenient than two wikis

ivory steppe
#

It's the perfect experience! XD

fluid lagoon
#

i blame @edgy lagoon solely because he was the only wiki keeper that wasn't there for the decision-making process which makes it funny to do so

can't you get SLSBot to do something about it

#

I haven't put in the effort to do that, either.

#

why must you hurt me like this

cinder kestrel

I can't think of a good way for my bot to look at link and decide whether or not it's a disambiguation page that needs a Subnautica/Below Zero parenthetical note at the end.

I did that with around 1500 pieces of silver.

#

When the player launches the Neptune Rocket with a valid Time Capsule set it will be deployed. The data on its contents is sent to the voting site, where the users can upvote and downvote Time Capsules. Capsules with enough upvotes, after being screened, will be seeded into the game world for other players to find. Their locations have nothing to do with where the rocket that deployed them took off from
Going through the discussions, someone noted that the Time capsule voting page has not had anything new in 2 years.

#

But seeing that someone managed to find a time capsule from someone doing the Nintendo switch version of the game, I'm going to change the info to state all submissions are privately curated until I can figure out otherwise.

heady gulch
#

never mind, logged in with account to check now. it doesn't show up if you aren't logged in.

cinder kestrel
#

[[Special:Diff/418240]] seems too speculative. I see the similarities, but they don't seem similar enough.

willow vectorBOT
heady gulch
#

sure, that similarity will work if The elder scrolls wiki says Masser and Secunda, the two moons of Nirn, are references to the two suns on Tatooine in starwars.

molten tree
#

yeah I reverted it, there's more examples of two-moon planets than just Elder Scrolls

heady gulch
#

that reminds me of years long ago when I tried to say that the crashfish home was a reference to the eggs from Alien because of how they opened and deployed

#

Why doesn't the Subnautica Bioreactor wiki page have a list of energy values like the BZ one does?

cinder kestrel
#

Because we like to cling to the false hope that everyone will notice the [Expand] under Energy Values.

ivory steppe
valid eagle
#

so for a physics project i found the radius, acceleration due to gravity, and mass of the subnautica planet 4546B. i found the radius to be 915 kilometers, or 14% the radius of the earth, the acceleration due to gravity to be 12.8 meters per second per second, or 30% greater than the earth's gravity, and the mass to be 1.778*10^23 kilograms, or 3% the earth's mass. if this seems like reasonable values feel free to employ them. if not just enjoy the numbers i got

#

if anyone would like to hear my process for getting these numbers just to authenticate them let me know.

turbid ermine
#

So basically g = 12.8 m/s² but you have a smaller radius and a smaller mass. That doesn't sound right.

pastel raptor
#

Yeah I’m not an expert but that doesn’t sound quite right.

valid eagle
#

yeah there are some issues since it's a game but i concluded with a friend that the planet might just be really dense which makes sense since it's mostly water and water is really dense. also the radius might not be super accurate since i used the distance the aurora disappears at and plugged that into the horizon equation, d=sqrt[2rh+h^2]. the aurora was only getting culled since nothing actually will dip below the horizon but it's the best we've really got. i could aslo try it with the below zero mountains and see if i get similar results.

cinder kestrel
#

which makes sense since it's mostly water and water is really dense
Water has less than half the density of most types of rock.

valid eagle
#

oh

#

guess my friend was wrong

#

i dunno the gravity is kinda strange but i don't know if it's impossible persay.

#

i dunno if you wiki lads think that sounds like reasonable measurements for the planet feel free to use them. if not i wont be upset.

molten tree
#

It's not my place to say, but if we're just going by the distance of the Aurora getting culled, it's probably not good enough to really say definitively

valid eagle
#

that's fair but it's the best we've got to solve for the radius, and therefore the mass, using that method unless the below zero mountains get culled even further.

#

there might be other ways like using the neptune rocket cutscene but i don't know how to use those methods. the acceleration due to gravity is pretty close for sure.

turbid ermine
#

Objects in a scene disappear further than the voxeland itself. (The Aurora is a scene.)

#

Gravity is 9.81 above water and 1 underwater.

#

But you have drag values as well. Above water it's 0.1, underwater it's 1. You can imagine the drag as a parachute attached to the objects, the bigger it is, the slowest the object falls. Depending on the objects those values differ, but usually g above water stays the same.

Hi, does anyone know of an efficient way to get the “Specimen With Infection Systems Inhibited”? I’ve gotten all other databank entries and I just can’t seem to get this one. I tried a couple strategies like using a propulsion canon to move enzyme host peepers to a infected fauna but to no avail.

merry oasis
# cursive vigil Hi, does anyone know of an efficient way to get the “Specimen With Infection Sys...

Just wait follow a enzyme host peeper around until you see it go to an infected fauna and scan it. If you don’t want to wait, just grab the peeper. After you grab the peeper, find an infected creature (preferably something like a boomerang) and drop both the enzyme host peeper and the infected creature and you can scan it then. You know it’s infected if it’s got green spots on it.

Hello wiki people. Can any of you confirm on what attacked the torgals and Marge?

#

Which leviathan I mean. I see that it says the reaper but it doesn’t seem the size of a kraken or it’s mandibles I don’t think can really be classified as tentacles

#

Along with my question. The wiki says that the sea dragon has tentacles and Paul Torgal specifically points out the tentacles in one of the databanks.

cinder kestrel
#

The Sea Dragon Leviathan has its tentacles in the back while its hands are in the front. I can understand Paul mistaking mandibles for tentacles; I can't understand him mistaking hands for tentacles. Due to its location, it's also easier for a Reaper Leviathan to get to the seabase than a Sea Dragon Leviathan. The final seabase audio also makes it sound like a Reaper Leviathan.

#

And some other reason(s) I can't remember.

heady gulch
#

But as a past wiki keeper had informed me, the writer completely forgot he was supposed to be writing about a reaper. And hence, almost nothing of that “kraken” with its “tentacles” makes sense,

tame smelt
#

Thank you. Last question, was the reaper the attacked the base the one Marge dragged down there?

Can't post/edit/message/etc. this anywhere on the wiki either due to permissions or nonspecific errors being thrown, and can't be bothered to structure this nicely anymore: BZ alien containment article mentions a pop limit of 10/containment, I ended up with 60 fish in 3 large room containments, sapienti sat kthxbai.

also another thing to note, the acquired from file is broken, File should read as [[File:Habitat Builder.png|30px|link=Habitat Builder (Below Zero)]]

Hey why is "A new strain of Kharaa evolves the ability to control and alter the structure of living creatures, causing the events of Natural Selection and Natural Selection 2." put in non-canon events?

Ok

#

Also there are a few quotes from Al-An in The Architects page that do not appear in the Below Zero Dialogue page...

is it because the quotes were removed from the full release?

valid eagle
#

So is this the channel we can discuss lore since I’ve come up with an issue I can’t quite solve. So the sea treaders during the events of the game are in their migratory season. Where do they come from and where are they heading? I’ve kinda deduced that the place they might be from is the sparse reef since the reason it might be sparse is that the sea treaders eat most of the plant life and then leave to go mate or whatever. In that time the sparse reef regrows becoming more lush. Where are they going? The dunes doesn’t seem too implausible but then you need to consider the reapers and how the reapers are bigger than sea treaders and they’d be effectively defenseless against them so where are they off to?

I've just updated the Subnautica Wiki's base theme. The Discussions area now has a background image! The header area has also been a little streamlined. I cleaned up some of the wiki's old code, which means Fandom's light theme is now functional, but there will be some color issues. If you happen to be on light theme, there will be a notice informing you that it's a work in progress and how to switch back to the dark theme.

#

On these disambiguation pages. Seems unintentional that almost every wikilink leads to one and that it's just a byproduct of splitting the wiki down the middle for Below Zero. Could throw my bot at this and bypass most of them when you're already reading a disambiguated article. E.g.,

Before:
Aerogel (Subnautica) -> click "Ruby" link -> Ruby [disambiguation page] -> Ruby (Subnautica)
After:
Aerogel (Subnautica) -> click "Ruby" link -> Ruby (Subnautica)

Would obviously sit and manually review/approve every edit. Don't mind spending the time doing it. But will I get an admin banhammer for my efforts?

late island
#

Admin banhammer?

#

The disambiguation pages absolutely are annoying though, and their whole nature is a result of the wiki suddenly being combined despite not remotely being designed around that.

It could become more disjointed. All it takes is a few people trying to overhaul pages in different ways without seeing through it 100% and then you got a bunch of oddball pages that are each trying to go in their own direction; last thing anyone wants is it to look like a disjointed art project.

Cleaning up piles of accumulated unfinished work is harder to deal with than the current state.

Fair enough. @molten tree @agile spindle Do you have any objections to inline wikilinks from game-specific pages to game-specific pages bypassing disambiguation pages? An example would be viewing the Aerogel (Subnautica) article and the link for Ruby being edited from [[Ruby]] to [[Ruby (Subnautica)|Ruby]]? Further amplifying discussion is above for context. Given the size of this wiki, believe I can accomplish this in a week or so, with the bot flag set and manual review of all edits before they go live. Disruption to passerbys is anticipated to be between very low to none.

cinder kestrel
#

~~In your example, why not do [[Ruby (Subnautica)|]]?~~How did I forget how the pipe trick actually works?

heady gulch
#

I'm looking at the page from the example rn, there's two links to the ruby disambiguation page.
One is in the recipe by clicking on the recipe icon.
the other is in the text: "Gel Sacks and Rubies"
but yeah, what SLScool said.

#

I'm honestly not opposed to the idea though. Looking at it and how the links are set up.... I'm pretty sure this wuold be a cleanup we'd be doing somewhere down the line anyways.

#

What I'm wondering is how many links go to disambiguation pages? Aside from just items?

"The Shuttlebug’s body plan is tri-radially symmetrical, a feature unique to the Shuttlebug on 4546B, and not seen on Earth since the Trilobozoans became extinct in the late Ediacaran period."
Subnautica wiki trivia entry on the shuttlebug page.

molten tree
# heady gulch iirc a couple templates were having problems a while ago with links and icons..

Those templates were something I was hoping to get around to remaking in a much better format at the end of last year, but I was pulled for more pressing matters on my team. The unified Subnautica wiki is still functional for the most part--a little messy, yes, but functional, so the templates weren't an emergency that needed to be resolved immediately. Now that those other matters are completed, I'm back to working on the Subnautica wiki. Hence, #📚wiki-discussion message as well as the new logo and favicon update I did a couple of days after that message.

molten tree
late island
#

None of the fauna on 4546 are fish, crustaceans, insects or any other grouping of earth species. It's just "common names"

#

nobody's suggesting we have to come up with new casual names for things on alien planets, in the same way its understood that starfish and electric eels aren't fish or eels respectively, but are called such as casual names

#

we also haven't gotten a good look at internal organs or the composition of these animals which might be very different from Earth's

#

but even if the life on this planet both evolved convergent bodyplans and chemistry as fish, that wouldn't make them fish in the end

#

even if it's easier to call them fish based on look

#

Oh you're talking about the Shuttlebug in relation to 4546B's other fauna my mistake

#

yeah it's a bit unique in that regard, though I have my own thoughts on where it could slot into certain family trees

heady gulch
#

I think writing up details about "very primitive eye" and "Doesn't appear to have any sort of brain capacity to any extent besides basic survival" might be too much of a stretch even for the trivia section.

#

I wouldn't use the ai as enough of a reason to define the behavior on a lot of the fauna. For instance. There are no scripted interactions between fauna and flora to my knowledge. The fauna you see in-game seem pretty indifferent to the existence of flora. There's even unused animations for peepers being scared by creepvines that was never implemented in.

#

certainly, but I don't think it's strong enough to put in as trivia on the wiki in most cases.

#

ah, alright I understand what you mean.

We try to keep anything speculation related into the trivia segments on pages. Such as real-word similarities and connections.

#

could also be amphibious breathing through it's skin. imo i think all of the fauna have some sort of amphibious breathing technique since they don't really suffocate on land and some could just have gills to bring in more oxygen more effectively.

#

i'm pretty sure cave crawlers can breathe through their skin so some are probably more robust in their ability to breathe with it whereas some probably rely on their gills more while still retaining the trait of breathing through the skin since it still comes in handy from time to time

Initially didn't realize it had to be set per-wiki across Fandom/GP, though I suppose it makes sense.

Bots with the bot-global user right do not need to be set per-wiki, but that user right is exclusive to staff-run bots for very obvious reasons 😛

west zinc

Suppose it's obvious, though generally malfeasance with a bot account would probably relate to its loss across the entire platform anyway so 🤷‍♂️

molten tree

Indeed, but it's easier to revert that malfeasance if it's on a single wiki as opposed to the entire platform xD

Nice to not be neck deep in setting up every single template and module needed, including all their documentation 😅

I dropped the Regex system above in favor of something different: find \[\[(Disambig1|Disambig2|...|Disambign)(?=[#|\]])(\#[^|\]]*)?\|?(.*?)\]\] and replace it with [[$1 (Subnautica or Below Zero)$2|{{subst:#if:$3|$3|$1}}]]. Disambig1|Disambig2|...|Disambign is a list of 189 SN/BZ disambiguation articles separated by vertical bars. An example is [[Special:Diff/420231]] (ignore the space added after each link, I accidentally had a space at the end of the Replace With field).

Figured you'd have the more automated approach fairly well covered so taking the more manual approach of backtracking all of the disambig pages. Won't yield as much fruit, but will get some of the weirder edge cases.

hey wiki lads i noticed this was for the music of the fabricator caverns page. is this from during below zero's development and needs updating or are these ambient tracks that play in the biome that aren't on the offical ost release? if the former i believe it should be "the shadow leviathan" and "fabricator caverns" for that biome but you might want to authenticate that. just wanted to let y'all know.

#

clicking on the link brings you to the OST page but no songs are titled creep and disturbed so it should just be a matter of renaming those two

Also tbh I kind of feel like the fauna pages for SN and BZ should be separate. I think it's weird having BZs just below the big list of SNs like that, possibly the same with other large pages like the flora page. (Concept art can maybe stay merged due to its unique nature but that one's also kinda weird feeling)

https://subnautica.fandom.com/wiki/Biomes especially considering that the Biome pages are already separate so it's weird that they're both handled differently

Does "taciturn" apply to physical disabilities with a physical cause? Because if not, that's one reason to remove it.

I mean I wouldn't say it belongs in personality

cinder kestrel
#

Along with other potential reasons to remove it.

heady gulch

I think it's passable as trivia

#

And even that, is a bit of a stretch. But, I do think it's not the most unreasonable thing to say

rigid jacinth
#

Well does anyone think it really needs to be there?

heady gulch
#

I don't think it's worth mentioning as part of the main article (personality section).

But, I think its plausible enough to put into the trivia section.

cinder kestrel
#

I feel like there's some societal rule somewhere that says not to theorize about people's disabilities and that this rule could apply here.

#

I don't like the mention of taciturn and I think it should be removed, but I'm still trying to think of an actual reason.

heady gulch
#

yeah in that regard I agree then.

#

Could we replace it with a notion that the Ryley possibly suffered from a severe concussion? Which can affect memory, judgement, reflexes, speech, muscle coordination.

molten tree
#

"Removing unverified speculation", something like that

heady gulch
#

well. I Think I found a better one to replace it

#

Also, im pretty sure Taciturn is not a disability. it's just used to refer to very quiet natured people. tbh first time I've heard of the word. "(of a person) reserved or uncommunicative in speech; saying little."

#

They're not directly stating Ryley suffers from aphasia

#

I think you've already covered this use case in editing guideline #11 personally: Always include a source when creating a trivia bullet point unless the trivia is about something that used to be in the game (such as previous names, model changes, etc). Anything outside of the game must be cited. Otherwise it will be removed.

#

At least in spirit, if not particularly in black and white.

heady gulch
#

hm yeah. If we put it in trivia, we'd probably have to cite a plausible medical reason to how that bonk to the head correlates to his quiet nature.

late island
#

I imagine he mostly doesn't speak because there isn't really anyone to speak to. The only possible instance could be the Sunbeam messages and we have no idea what fully was going on with those

heady gulch
#

true. I don't think the man is mute or anything, the dude does have a job with non essential systems maintenance; so I think its reasonable to say he didn't get there by being a man of few words the entire ways.

I can probably find a reasonable enough answer to make a correlation between the thwack to the head and his lack of speech (And I already have found something I think is plausible enough). However, tying to what SLScool said, I don't think it's a good idea to accidentally trivialize a medical condition

balmy mural
#

Wow, accidentally stumbled across this lol
Why would you even want to speculate about his head trauma?
I didn’t specialize in trauma but iirc strokes would be more likely to cause speech difficulty unless you’re just unconscious, and I’m not sure why you’d speculate to begin with
I wouldn’t broach the subject tbh
As mentioned, there isn’t anyone to speak to
And this isn’t the sort of game where you hear your own thoughts really😂
For those who don’t know me, I’m trained as a physician, no longer practicing tho, and I went into pediatric/neonatal medicine not neurologyvvWink Still I wouldn’t make assumptions.

stable cave
#

I mean not to throw my hat in the ring but this seems like a lot of speculation/grasping at straws just to find an in game reason why the main character doesn’t speak when all it is is just he’s a silent protagonist

heady gulch
# balmy mural Wow, accidentally stumbled across this lol Why would you even want to speculate ...

TLDR IS:
Someone edited the article on the wiki to say the silent nature of the protagonist is possibly related to getting hit in the head from that metal plate, in the main page. If we move it to trivia, we'd need to give it a citation to explain it. So a few of us are really divided on if we should keep this information up, where we should put it in the page, and how to handle it realy.

balmy mural
#

I see

#

I certainly don’t know how wiki rules are applied.

I can only say that imo, you don’t need to explain why the protag is silentvvShrug I know generally speaking anyone can make edits to most wikis, but what if what they added is just unnecessary? Or even incorrect? Why do you have to move that info “anywhere” or explain why it’s moved, such as in this instance? (If it’s too involved to explain that, don’t worry, I’m fine just taking y’all’s word for it👍)

I mean this really isn’t something that can be attributed to a medical issue. Doing so is reaching, jumping to some rather far-fetched conclusions (this is a game after all, you want to get technical about it, the player probably would’ve died from something like a depressed skull fracture, intracranial hemorrhage, or even smoke inhalation while unconscious😛). In other words it’s just gameplayvvShrug I guess what I’m saying is I don’t see why must it be moved anywhere when such an edit doesn’t add anything meaningful to the wiki entry, in fact I think in this case trying to insinuate its related to head trauma is misleading more than anything because it’s based on some faulty assumption.

Anyway, forgive me if I’m just not understanding how it works, or for butting in on something that’s really none of my business😅

heady gulch
#

Alright, I think you put it pretty well. I'll probably remove the edit then. Even in it's current state, it's still insinuating that it's medical related; which would be likely a faulty assumption just as you stated. Thank you for the input though

heady gulch
#

sigh fine, I'm testing it in game then.. jeez..

cinder kestrel
#

What are you doing damage to?

heady gulch
#

crabsquids

#

ive also made a fascinating discovery.

#

any thrown object does 100 damage.

#

regardless of what it is.

#

crashfish? 100 damage
peepers? 100 damage (if it collides)
gas pods? 100 impact damage, I dont even know if the gas has an effect.
mushrooms? 100 damage.

#

Im going to throw some nutrient blocks next and see what happens.

#

I started with bonesharks as the test group. no matter what I throw at it, 2 hits and it's down. moved up to stalkers, but decided to stop using those as due to their agile nature they kept avoiding me. Im just bad at aiming.

#

So I took the next best thing, crab squids. 500 hp.

#

5 hits from literally anything thrown by a propulsion cannon and it's down.

#

im going to see if I can throw stationary flora other than acid mushrooms at it

#

funny,

#

writhing weeds are 3 hits on the boneshark.

#

coral shell plates also follow the consistent pattern of being 2 hits.

#

no way.

#

this is the strangest discovery.. So, somehow, while everything else does 100 damage (most things). the knife (item) when thrown, does more than that. since it can kill a crabsquid in 4 hits instead of 5.. I'm going to try and see if the damage output is determined by range

cinder kestrel
#

It's not simply adding 100 plus the damage for the knife (20) because that would be only 480 damage in 4 hits.

#

Unless the propulsion cannon does at least 105 damage . . . ?

heady gulch
#

I'm going to try in the grassy plateaus, with the sandsharks. They have 250 health, it might provide better results.

#

3 hits from the knife takes out a sandshark. okay, so its between 100 < knifedmg < 150

cinder kestrel
#

If a crabsquid takes 5 hits, then at-least 105 damage/hit will kill it in 5 while knives, if the 105 is cumulative with the 20 damage knifes do, would be 125/hit, or 4 hits for 500 HP. That was my reasonng.

#

A crabsquid dies it 4 hits from a creature with half its health dies in 3 hits. Interesting.

heady gulch
#

I'm wondering if its a range related damage output

#

okay, I can confirm it's damage related to range/acceleration. one of the crabsquids was fleeing. the fourth hit didn't take it out.

#

did it again, the crabsquid flees after around 2-3 hits. twice in a row the fourth hit did not do enough damage to it. so there is some dropoff at some point.

#

froze one with the stasis rifle and tested a nutrient block on it. 5 hits. So one thing is at least clear. the knife does more damage when thrown as a projectile compared to other objects.

#

I'm going to try the acid mushrooms, crashfish, and gas pods on the crabsquid again to see if I can yield the same 5 hit results.

cinder kestrel
#

so there is some dropoff at some point.
Which is also true for exiting from the Seamoth and taking damage from colliding with the Seamoth (it can instantly kill at full speed but only does some damage at slow damage).

heady gulch
#

yeah, alright that rules out one damage modifier

heady gulch
heady gulch
#

So to make sure the damage numbers are as accurate as can be. I spawned in a sea treader leviathan. (3000 health). And the damage numbers line up. 30 nutrientblocks. so on average, items do 100 thrown damage

#

~27 acid mushroom hits, I'm guessing splash damage of some kind was for that one, either that or some of the mushrooms musnt have broken on impact.

#

~26 - direct hit from crashfish. Just to make sure, I manually hatched 30 so I could get them as actual items. In other words.
The splash damage of a Crashfish is not terribly high. consider this:
it took 2,600 damage total from the impacts of the crashfish alone.
and the total splash damage added up from all 26, is only 400 damage.

cinder kestrel
#

400 or 4000?

heady gulch
#

Yeah only 400 damage.

#

meaning, splash damage is around 15.38 per.

#

which is odd to say the least?
Because I tested this on other fauna, small fauna like reginalds and boomerangs. Thats around 30 health.

#

splash damage is enough to kill them.

#

Tested it against a cave crawler (50 health).
Test 1, splash damage wasn't enough to kill it, took a second hit to do the work, test 2: same results. Test 3: a direct hit killed it instantly, just making sure they had no.. direct hit immunity.

#

its somewhere between 30 < crash fish splash damage < 50

#

Alright, tested it again against the sandshark (250 hp). It Definitely has splash damage. 2 hits and the sandshark was out. compared to other items (like gas pod) taking 3.

heady gulch
#

well that was all very insightful.

#

the latter of which.. is there anything that backs this up?

cinder kestrel
#

Top or bottom addition?

heady gulch
#

the seajet

cinder kestrel
heady gulch
#

He literally ignored what I said.

#

Gas pods are not good

#

If it took 29 of them to do 2,900 damage, the splash damage from the gas only made up for 100 damage

#

That was the actual worst one out of all the items capable of dealing splash damage

cinder kestrel
#

Which doesn't make sense to me, since the gas does way more than 100/29 (about 3) damage to the player.

heady gulch
rigid jacinth
#

Also that's 3 not 4

cinder kestrel
#

Which "4"?

rigid jacinth
#

Says there are 4 extra effect items to use as ammo. He listed 3.

cinder kestrel
#

He put four in the edit itself.

#

"Mushroom" referred to acid mushrooms and deep shrooms.

rigid jacinth
#

Oh, ok

heady gulch
#

acid mushrooms surprisingly arent as effective as deep shrooms

rigid jacinth
#

Well aren't deep shrooms supposed to be more potent? Like from a canonical standpoint?

heady gulch
#

Yeah, I’m guessing so

#

I’m honest to god surprised the acid mushrooms are the strongest projectile

#

For a tldr if you didn’t read the entire thing I wrote up.

#

Propulsion cannon damage comes from 2 things:

  1. Collision damage (like the seamoth) is generally just, higher acceleration = higher damage. And the general highest this will be around is 100 damage, rarely past that.
  2. “Splash damage” - a small component that only comes from a few items including but possibly not limited too: crash fish, acid mushrooms, deep shrooms, gas pods.
#

I believe splash damage is inconsistent, as earlier I calculated that the splash damage effect from the crash fish had to be greater than (or equal to) 30, but less than 50 (as a cave crawler can survive the blast). These numbers added up when tested against something like a sand shark
(2x crash fish = 200 impact damage.)
(2x splash damage = ~60-80.)
Was able to consistently kill sand sharks in 2 hits because of that (250 health).

#

Although when tested on much larger fauna, the easiest being the sea treader (3,000 hp). And also an entirely immobile fauna if you box it in. Things get weird.

#

That explosion splash damage doesn’t add up quite right.

#

at the minimum. Assuming that at the optimal range, a crashfish will deal 130 damage LEAST (100 impact damage + 30 splash damage). it should take precisely 24 hits on a sea treader to kill it. Not 27 (tested 3 times actually).

#

overall, acid mushrooms are the most reliable ammo source.

#

Gas pods are utterly useless. (29x pods = 2,900 impact damage)
These were all fired one after another very quickly, Against a stationary target (sea treader, immobile. effectively in the clouds of gas each time).
that's about.. Roughly 3.5 gas damage per gas pod.

#

since it took the combined effort of 29 gas pods to muster up 100 damage of gas

#

now, something I do wonder. Is how does it work in below zero?

heady gulch
#

this is something.

heady gulch
#

They say it’s “previously unseen”. Is that true?

rigid jacinth
#

What do they mean by that?

heady gulch
#

Well, for context. Throughout the development of subnautica. The subnautica wiki only accepted material if the devs had shown it off before.

#

which had problems. Since Concept art sometimes fell into two categories. Material that was available to the public, and material that was not supposed to be available to the public.
Leaks happened quite often, including screenshots, concept art, and materials of in development areas or story material that was not ready to be revealed to the public.

#

Both the Subnautica discord server and wiki would delete any material uploaded to both the discord and wiki if it were not shown off by the developers in any capacity.

#

Including many precursor works, and the neptune escape rocket.
(The russian wiki didn't care, they uploaded it there anyways).

#

However, with the release of subnautica, below zero, and most related contents. I don't know how much this rule still stands as it's been probably years since it had seen use.

As far as we know there isn't much left to be seen... But if someone is uploading leaked concept art, or non public-available developer materials in 2022 this far after the game's 1.0 launch. I'm not sure if we handle it the same way as we did back in 2016 and 2017.

#

Can't find anything on google search at least. hm. well...

#

@cinder kestrel Think this might be something that was on one of the developer trellos?

have anyone stumbled into a disambiguation link when searching for resources on subnautica

#

#

these feel kinda annoying to me

remote leaf
#

I feel like the disambiguation links are a bit overdone

#

like if a page is over BZ content, clicking a link shouldnt take me to a disambiguation page and just auto take you to the BZ page

patent bolt
#

And we got an always broken {{Recipe2}} template

#

a nice catalog of recipes, but always takes the player to the disambiguation when they want to know how to obtain the material for example

#

The hard split approach might not be the best option as we see now

#

but it feels too late to change

#

So I've got an idea for a semi-automated disposable tool that operates on every article:

  • Find [[standard wikilinks]] to disambiguation pages
  • If the page title contains (Subnautica), replace every disambig link with link name + (Subnautica); similar for BZ
  • If not, the tool would prompt me to categorize if the subject is Subnautica or BZ, and fix links accordingly

In articles that cover both games and discuss a feature in both games at the same time, the disambiguation links should stay (e.g., If the console is opened and/or [[Console Commands]] are used, Achievements will be disabled while in that same play session in [[Achievements]]).

Other than that, it's a matter of SLSbot going through all the articles without (Subnautica) or (Below Zero) on the end and fixing the links as appropriate.

Edit request to either MediaWiki:Common.css or MediaWiki:FandomDesktop.css: Please add

#documentation {
  clear: both;
  margin: 1em 0 0 0;
  border: 1px solid #aaa;
  background-color: #000033;
  padding: 1em;
}
#

Afterwards, please remove the inline stylesheet from {{Documentation}}

#

I think this would make light mode support easier

molten tree
#

I got a better idea

patent bolt
#

And

.theme-fandomdesktop-light #documentation {
border-color: #0aa;
background-color: var(--theme-page-background-color)
}
#

that was what I thought but yours was better

#

thanks very much

molten tree
#

Yeah I love CSS variables so much

#

I didn't even know they were really a thing until UCP and it makes it all so much easier

patent bolt
#

more complaints on the theming of .article-table; stark contrast whith main text in light mode, and too low contrast for links

#

my opinion is to change --theme-page-background-color--secondary to #000033 for dark mode and unchanged for light mode

molten tree
#

Changing the variables themselves is not what we want to do, those are automatically generated through ThemeDesigner and Fandom's backend

#

The .article-table text color change I just made was just a quick fix for now, I wanted to go through and see all of the issues involved i.e. the link colors

patent bolt
#

is there an equivalent of redefining --theme-page-background-color--secondary in MediaWiki:Common.css in the ThemeDesigner

molten tree
#

no.

#

We can style these tables the old-fashioned way

patent bolt
#

as a quick and dirty solution for making the boxes elegant, we can add to MediaWiki:Fandomdesktop.css:

.theme-fandomdesktop-dark {
  --theme-page-background-color--secondary: #000033;
}

.theme-fandomdesktop-light {
  /* In case we want to style this in the future */
  /* --theme-page-background-color--secondary: */
}
molten tree
#

Redefining the global variables is something I want to avoid at all costs. I fear that modifying them could cause issues in certain global elements and violate Fandom's Customization Policy.

#

We can define custom variables, or even declare colors the old-fashioned way

patent bolt
#

For the "new custom variables" path:

.theme-fandomdesktop-dark {
  --box-background-color: #000033;
}

.theme-fandomdesktop-light {
  --box-background-color: var(--theme-page-background-color--secondary);
}

I am not sure about the naming but I am sure it is for documentation boxes and data bank entries etc

All navbox templates have now been replaced with a standardized format using a global Lua module from Dev Wiki to make it all much easier to use, simpler to edit, and faster to load

I just spent the past five minutes thinking about infoboxes.

It's a singleplayer game with a multiplayer mod available.

How come there's a page for the subnautica ost but not the below zero one?

inland carbon
#

Also, with the SN ost, where/when do "Precipice" and "A Tendency to Float" play?

viscid fossil
#

I think these were unused, or as concepts

#

But I could be wrong lol

cinder kestrel
#

How come there's a page for the subnautica ost but not the below zero one?
You have [[Subnautica OST]] and then you have [[Subnautica: Below Zero OST]].

cinder kestrel
#

Although, now that I think about it, the first page has four redirects to it, three of which would work really well for the second page.

remote leaf
#

I honestly wish the pages were just merged like every other game wiki

#

one page for the same topic

#

just split into two for each game

#

SN wiki is the only wiki I ever seen that makes a separate page for stuff like "titanium"

molten tree
#

That's because they were two different wikis before. We merged the wikis together, which means the pages are initially separate. Combining the pages requires manual work.

remote leaf
#

yeah I get that

#

would be a good idea to do that at some point

#

I really dont think you need to separate pages like this

#

makes it harder to find things and you get two different pages that are very similar

#

esp since all the SN page use the old recipe templates, while BZ pages are using the new one

fervent grove
#

Congratz, you just volunteered to fix the whole wiki. See ya in a few years!

inland carbon
cinder kestrel
#

Maybe because you didn't search "OST" and instead searched "Soundtrack" or something (since "Subnautica: Below Zero Soundtrack" et al. were not pages until I created them yesterday).

inland carbon
#

Alright.

inland carbon
#

It works fine by searching it up

molten tree
#

Clicking that link doesn't redirect me

inland carbon
#

Odd, it doesn't redirect on my phone either

I'm gonna blame it on windows.

I'm on Windows too

Allow us to stream in public voice calls here so we can show off cool stuff

instead of having to add everyone, put everyone in a private group chat

then playing

#

kinda irratating

molten tree
#

You're in the wrong channel, this is for the wiki

cinder kestrel
#

I once streamed AutoWikiBrowser with SLSbot.

#

But that was back when that was allowed (I just tried and it failed).

heady gulch
# calm briar Allow us to stream in public voice calls here so we can show off cool stuff

I'd like to clarify this right now for anyone who sees it in the near-future.

A. The Subnautica Wiki team is not associated with the Subnautica devs. We are a group of passionate users who want to analyze, study, and document the game's content and information as much as we can for others to see.

B. We Are not associated with the Subnautica discord moderation either. We don't influence changes to the discord server. We occasionally reach out to the server devs for help with channels or bots though.

C. If you need help for Subnautica or Below Zero, feel free to ask here; however, keep in mind you are more likely going to get a quick response if you ask in #subnautica-chat or #below-zero-chat. As this chat is primarily used for discussing wiki matters and information

cinder kestrel
#

On occasion, we'll ask the developers a question about something or I'll ask Tuna or Donya to make @willow vector better (and, of course, they provide us with #📚wiki-discussion and #📁wiki-changes ), but that's about it.

molten tree
#

(also it's not a Wikipedia, it's just a wiki :P)

heady gulch
#

Gotcha, fixed

balmy mural
# calm briar Allow us to stream in public voice calls here so we can show off cool stuff

I can respond to this. Voice chats aren’t moderated, and so are “use at your own risk” anyway. Sure, sometimes mods or devs even will drop into the voice chat to see what’s going on, or if someone pings the mod role about a serious issue going on there, but it’s not routinely monitored. Therefore we certainly can’t have people streaming in the voice chat because that would be way too much risk for who only knows what people might end up streaming in there (but I’m sure it wouldn’t take much imagination to think of the possibilities👀). So the devs don’t allow it. Pretty simple. If you want to mention a stream you have planned, that’s for Subnautica or Below Zero and it meets server guidelines, you can post it in #📺streams-and-videos but adding streaming to VC isn’t going to happen because the devs choose not to permit it.

calm briar
#

It’s a matter of trust

#

Which understandably is limited

cinder kestrel

My guess is that people send messages here that get deleted before you check this channel.

#

Maybe @balmy mural , who knows/can find out if messages are being deleted in this channel, can tell us if that's right . . . ?

balmy mural
#

I have that happen to me all the time, where channels on discord servers will highlight even though nothing new is posted, idk why it happens either tbh

#

But yeah I’d know if something got deleted

cinder kestrel
#

And there I was, thinking you were all just being really good moderators and deleting "click here for free money" before we ever had to see it.
Spam/advertising is annoying, but it's great you take care of it before we see it.

Yeah that's definitely accurate in the original Subnautica

ivory steppe
#

I'm referring to the Below Zero Battery page.

crimson crescent
#

Yes it's the same on both games

fervent grove
#

I thought all the pages merged?

#

Or was it just the wikis?

molten tree
#

Just the two wikis. Merging all of the pages is something that has to be done manually page-by-page.

cinder kestrel
#

And even then, we sometimes want to keep the two pages separate.

#

Although, I'm guessing that if I opened both [[Battery (Subnautica)]] and [[Battery (Below Zero)]] (too lazy to right now), I would think that they should be merged.
