For all of you asking about my base. Sadly i had to upload it since discord wouldnt let me as file size was too big. Here is the first part of my project done, hope yall like it and yes its lego water as base makes game hella laggy @ornate shoal @summer palm

[quartz nacelle]

My below zero survival main base

[proper rover]

[nova yarrow]

what do you use to record?

[worthy tusk]

I'm not Luxy, but for pc I'd recommend either obs studio or the built in xbox game bar functions.

[nova yarrow]

i use OBS studio but i have to use lossless quality for it to even seem like a vid and not a slide show

and he has a huge void mega base

and is barely lagging

[worthy tusk]

Could just be difference in processing power
Although, I remember there being a setting for obs to use the gpu instead of cpu or something... Something along the links of nvenc?

[nova yarrow]

idk

[soft veldt]

im using OBS

i have 16 gb of ram in my pc so

[nova yarrow]

ah ic

[soft veldt]

and btw it lags like hell, my base is so big, its why its lego water

[worthy tusk]

How much do you have?

[nova yarrow]

idk

[soft veldt]

go to search on your pc and type in system info

[worthy tusk]

^

[nova yarrow]

i only have 237 GB left 💀 might need to delete a bunch of stuff

MB*

[soft veldt]

ye, low storage also lags out pc's

[worthy tusk]

...what.
Thats storage, not ram, and that's plenty left.

[nova yarrow]

read the bottom

[worthy tusk]

Ah

How is your pc surviving with that much storage left?

[nova yarrow]

idk its running BZ and SN1 fine

[worthy tusk]

How much total storage do you have?

[nova yarrow]

bruh wait i was right the first time

it is 237 GB

[worthy tusk]

Ah no wonder

[nova yarrow]

my pc specs are just doggy poo ig

[worthy tusk]

What cpu and gpu?

[nova yarrow]

correction* i have 237 GB in total and i have 13.4 GB free and 223 GB used

[worthy tusk]

Okay

[nova yarrow]

idk its a windows laptop 💀

[worthy tusk]

And that changes what exactly?
Go to system information and find out.

[worthy tusk]

Still may want to free some storage up

[soft veldt]

i use integrated intel graphics so

[worthy tusk]

No dedicated gpu?

[nova yarrow]

whats the gpu and cpu called in system info?

[soft veldt]

nope

just intel Iris XE intengrated

[worthy tusk]

Should be either cpu or central processing unit and gpu, graphics processing unit, or graphics.

It should show them on the first page

If you can't find them, install and run hwinfo. It'll show it better.

[soft veldt]

cpu is called proccessor

in system info

and total physical memory is how much ram you have

also #off-topic

[tropic blade]

base update

[worthy tusk]

Oh my

That looks like a pain to travel around

[soft veldt]

lol nah my base is worse lol

[nova yarrow]

I thought yours would be easier bc it’s just 4 lines in the cardinal directions isint it?

There’s twists and turns and has ladders

But yours would be more annoying in the long run

[tropic blade]

This is half of the structure

And its not done either

[soft veldt]

it takes 8 minutes to walk my entire base, and its only to one void direction, the dunes void tunnel will probably take about 20 minutes

[worthy tusk]

https://tenor.com/view/why-huh-but-why-gif-13199396

[tropic blade]

the real question is why not

[ornate shoal]

Why not?

[worthy tusk]

Because it would be super tedious to walk around

[ornate shoal]

Yes

So run

🏃‍♀️

[rare loom]

my base in the twisty bridges

[fast quest]

Nice

[ornate shoal]

Good job man

Might I suggest making an exterior garden?

[rare loom]

I have a small one off camera

Screen I mean

But I’ve got little use since I don’t have a bioreactor

I just use a ton of solar panels and thermal reactors

[ornate shoal]

Oh

That works ig

[soft veldt]

my base in BZ

[modern night]

nice

[rare loom]

If only we could build in the vent gardens

[ornate shoal]

Wow

That is.... Long

hull integrity

[nova yarrow]

Hull integrity: Below Zero

[heady jacinth]

It sucks there's no place to build a base with a good eye-level view of the vent garden, unless it's floating.

[prisma sigil]

uff

sad for you

[proper rover]

This exactly

[hasty sluice]

If only we could build bases on-top of reefbacks

[rare loom]

Omg

Yes

[proper rover]

Now you’re talking

Oh modders

[rare loom]

I’m so sad that we didn’t get arctic feedbacks as well

[proper rover]

They’d probably be too big for the game lmao

Already glow whales are swimming into the lilypad caves

[rare loom]

Yeah that’s true

The bz map is too boxed in by the icebergs

I really really want to be a modded because there are so many small changes I’d make to the game

[strange stump]

what should I do with this room?

[proper rover]

Research room. Add some aquariums with tables and microscopes nearby. On the opposite wall put signs and picture frames showing that status of one aquarium, normal, and another, which you could fill with ||infected fish, labelled infected||

Like this room

[strange stump]

any other ideas than just a room designed for research?

a Research Room sounds like a wonderful idea for this small satellite base.

[proper rover]

oh it’s a small base

[strange stump]

all the base was supposed to be was for a few modded Telepower Pylons in efforts to try and make a power generator that can spread the power to other bases around the map.

[proper rover]

Well, you could have provided more context

[strange stump]

I then attached 2 MP rooms and then stacked another 2 on top.

now it's a small cozy base alongside mods and stuff.

[proper rover]

What’s in all the other rooms

[strange stump]

Above the one photographed is a small lounge room with a TV and a bunk with a bunch of storage, and another has controls for the base's storage.

this is what's above the empty MP Room, just a small place with a Bunk, a bunch of lockers and a couch with a TV in front of it, with a small storage below it all thanks to the FCS AlterraHub mod.

[proper rover]

A cafeteria and greenhouse area

[strange stump]

also, there's windows there that you can close the curtains on, I have them open just to let all the underwater world seep into a lounge room personalised to my liking. I, of course, had made this base in a world in which I have a bunch of other bases in creative mode, but I want something to look lived in.

[pseudo rain]

You should add a kitchen for at least a crew of two people. By the look of it, the lounge has 2 beds implying 2 people living there

[strange stump]

done.

[proper rover]

Nice 👌

[strange stump]

fridge, microwave, stove oven, a cabinet to store stuff and a counter, as well as a table offscreen where that couch sits.

it also has a curing cabinet.

[proper rover]

you put my cafeteria to shame lmfao

[strange stump]

lol.

plants? what plants?

[proper rover]

lmao

[nova yarrow]

I wish I had FCS in BZ

[proper rover]

I wish I had FCS at all

[modern night]

[pseudo rain]

just doing some testing with some glitches to make better exteriors

done on Nintendo switch, using console and a glitch

[proper rover]

https://tenor.com/view/funny-cool-squad-thatguy-huntforredoctober-gif-4760240

[proper rover]

How do you do it?

This is revolutionary

[pseudo rain]

not really

It's a glitch speedrunners use actually

Pretty widely known

[proper rover]

damn

[pseudo rain]

Basically it registers you as if you're in a base despite not being in a base

You can search up "least time in water subnautica speedrun" on YouTube and this glitch should appear at least once

[proper rover]

Nice I’ll check it out

How did I not know about this????????????

[pseudo rain]

And the crates are just from console commands (l + r + a)

[proper rover]

cracks knuckles

Base building time

[ornate shoal]

What is that

Mods?

I wish I could use mods😭

Console lyfe💯😭

[jagged yew]

Cool

For those of you who cant see, he has a mod station and a power cell charger outside his base

[ornate shoal]

Damn

[jagged yew]

He used the glitch where you trick the game into thinking your on land, so you walk in the water.

Look up moist% run and you can see how

Basically you build 2 corridors connected to each other, go inside, half construct a bulkhead between them, go outside, deconstruct one of the halls, then go back inside the other, finish the bulkhead, and go through it.

[pseudo rain]

As well as a wall locker

I also have some flood lights and power transmitters on the inside

[rare loom]

What about this is glitched?

[ornate shoal]

@summer palm told you I gave you my word

My base

Subnautica OG

[summer palm]

Nice!

[ornate shoal]

Thanks

[pseudo rain]

Wall locker, mod table, and power cell chargers outside

[oblique cave]

did u use the propultion cannon to move the wreck boxes??

[proper rover]

Nah he used commands

[oblique cave]

vanilla or modded?

[proper rover]

Vanilla

ryft is on PS

[ornate shoal]

you remember

[proper rover]

[oblique cave]

cool

[ornate shoal]

good memory

[pseudo rain]

How you have these structures

Can I get this mod?

[versed schooner]

here http://fcstudioshub.com/subnautica/subnauticafcspda/

[pseudo rain]

No, I used console commands

[oblique cave]

ah

[opal talon]

could you take boxes from the aroura and put them in a base it would seem posible

[proper rover]

It would take ages and they could despawn

[opal talon]

oh

but it could be posible?

i wonder if i should try it i live close to the aroura

[proper rover]

You definitely could try

Bring a ton of batteries for the prop cannon tho

[opal talon]

ok

[oblique cave]

You can do it in survival

[opal talon]

:o

woah

[vivid panther]

Welcome to mi casa

Sub-Bay
Pathway go 1st floor

[oblique cave]

Modded?

[vivid panther]

Bathroom (the door on the left in the previous picture)

[oblique cave]

Oo shower

[vivid panther]

Multiple perspectives of the 1st floor

2nd floor
My quarters

[proper rover]

Damn that looks super nice!

[vivid panther]

Third floor (for some reason missing the POV from the observatory...? though you can see it from the control room)

[oblique cave]

What room is this

2nd image

[vivid panther]

Corridors top floor, the two balls on top of my base, picture taken from the angle in the back

[proper rover]

Why are there stairs going into a window??

[vivid panther]

??

Which one

[oblique cave]

2nd image

Last set

[rare loom]

The control room image

[vivid panther]

Casually sitting in my observatory looking at the progress taken by my external plantations

[rare loom]

I assume

[vivid panther]

Oh that's just how the model of the control room is, the floor is slightly lower so it has stairs at both ends

[proper rover]

Never noticed that in my base

[vivid panther]

The 1st floor felt quite empty in the middle so I filled it up with a floral plant at the entrance, a faunal front from the Sub-Bay and a workbench on the side of the kitchen
With three benches around the floor and some picture frames for all the cool stuff I saw around before settling down

[proper rover]

👌

[vivid panther]

After that, second floor is pretty straightforward, just a small quarter and the remaining space is just food production

[limber jolt]

My monstorosety i call home... But i guess im moving soon

[blazing prism]

oh damn it

wanted to show a big build i made, but the video has too much mb, and discord refuses me to post it

wait a second

hold on 1 second guys

https://youtu.be/fJljzQsf354

there we go

my epic build

please like and sub to my channel as i lost my only few braincells making this build (btw its not done yet)

[proper rover]

Looks pretty good!

[ornate shoal]

Nice

[tropic blade]

@strange stump how do you place the LEDS? i have about 16 in my inventory and the builder just does not do its one job

[tulip jacinth]

Ghost leviathan observatory base is finished

[worthy tusk]

Woah nice

What're you going to name the ghost?

[worthy tusk]

Which item, and by builder, do you mean habitat builder?

[pseudo rain]

Pretty sure they're talking about modded FCS LED lights that can be placed via hab builder

[tropic blade]

Yes thats what im talking about

[worthy tusk]

ah

I'll be no help there

[tulip jacinth]

i named it Blu

[proper rover]

Noice

Very fitting

[strange stump]

FCS AlterraHub and SnapBuilder.

[vivid panther]

Oh damn that's a nice way to structure the base, I like this cage aspect you gave it

[ornate shoal]

Suppose the top floor is the observatory? (actual observatory)

[nova yarrow]

Where is the observatory’s

[ornate shoal]

Top floor

See it?

[nova yarrow]

No

I meant

Where is the observatorys

[ornate shoal]

O

Oh yeah...

He went super cheap

Since stalker teeth are a pain in the butt to get😭😅

So I think he made the top floor the mega observatory lol

[nova yarrow]

Ohhh it’s in survival

[ornate shoal]

Yeah

[nova yarrow]

I’m creative I have multiple large rooms with a bunch of reinforcements

And then I spam observatory’s

[ornate shoal]

Why else would he not make observatories

[nova yarrow]

And glass corridors

[ornate shoal]

stalker teeth

[nova yarrow]

Imagine not growing your own stalkers, the. Releasing them in the wild, right next to a grav trap with a lot of metal salvage attached to it

[ornate shoal]

Wait!

You genius!!!

I NEVER thought of that!!!

[nova yarrow]

I know I know I’m very big brain

[tropic blade]

well hello gregory

[whole sable]

Why he in the red zone

[proper rover]

It’s a bug where reapers follow you

[rare loom]

Kinda yeah. The plateau biome he’s in though is adjacent to the dunes, however. Actually, the reaper pictured there is most likely Burger King Foot Lettuce.

[worthy tusk]

Creste is a better name than that.

[nova yarrow]

It’s taken

Tho

So he can’t use ut

It*

[wind rune]

Didn't know people remembered those names for the Leviathans

Or didn't use them anymore

[proper rover]

We can’t forget the Safety Reaper

[wind rune]

Nah, we can't forget sammy

[proper rover]

—Sammy the Safety Reaper—
Teaching you the dangers of the Aurora since Day 1

[pallid gyro]

lol

[nova yarrow]

I don’t get it

[proper rover]

Sammy the safety reaper

[nova yarrow]

There’s reapers with names?

[proper rover]

Sammy’s the reaper that follows you to the shallows

[proper rover]

Yep

[wind rune]

There's a map that has a name for every hostile leviathan and where they are

And people seem to have just accepted it

[cerulean zodiac]

Sammy the Safety Reaper is the one that people remember the most

[proper rover]

Especially since he played a big part in their lives

[rich vine]

Here's the map with the names. I just learned about this for the first time! I didn't know, either.

I need help actually

For the chellies

Chelicerates

My precious pink bois

Oh and for the ice worms!

[quartz nacelle]

can I borrow this living room design

[drowsy dome]

sure lmfao

[proper rover]

That looks so good ngl

[foggy walrus]

Any reason why it won't allow me to place it here?

[worthy tusk]

There's nothing in the way at all, yourself included?

[foggy walrus]

Correct, I move around to see if I'm blocking it and I don't appear to be. The only thing in that area is a foundation but the other rooms are on a foundation at the same level. I can place it out to the left one more if need be but I just don't want super long corridors if that makes sense

[fast quest]

Might be something inside one of the compartments you're connecting it to

The multipurpose rooms have a dumb hitbox though and might just not let you place another room that close

[foggy walrus]

That's probably it, it's strange but thank you for your help

[fast quest]

No problem

[limber jolt]

My little scavenging project

[ornate escarp]

Dedicated aquarium.... Nice!

Although he might be a little lonely all by themself. Perhaps you should give them a friend!

[nova yarrow]

There’s 2 tho

They have friend

[ornate escarp]

Oh... I did not see the one on the right. XD

[limber jolt]

They are married lol

Anyways The only room i pay attention to

[rich vine]

I did this when I was cleaning out the Aurora. My first playthrough, I never built anything anywhere except by my pod. This time, I'm gonna be building stuff everywhere!

[tropic blade]

the base is now connected and this looks omminous

[soft veldt]

what biome is that

[tropic blade]

its the grassy plateaus

[soft veldt]

ah, my base so far is in safe shallows, leads all the way to the crash zone void, and atm im working on to the dunes/blood kelp void

[tropic blade]

noice

[worthy tusk]

Where to get cat poster

[slim fern]

Aurora

[ornate shoal]

Looks like a fever dream. Never ending

The hallways go on forever lol

[tropic blade]

Kinda

[ornate shoal]

Smh

[worthy tusk]

Huh. I didn't see it when I was there, just an aurora one and three prawn ones.

[limber jolt]

Aurora cafeteria. Go right in

[tropic blade]

i just spent 15 minuets gathering the materials for a small amount of vials but they look good

[ornate shoal]

Nice depth too🤓😛

[modern night]

nice

[ornate shoal]

Nice

[rich vine]

ohhh we can put bottles down?!

[whole sable]

Modded prolly

[soft veldt]

decorations mod lets you put any item down

[rich vine]

Is it possible to mod on playstation? ps5? I didn't know about this 👀

[soft veldt]

consoles cant be modded

[rich vine]

ah, okay.

[soft veldt]

besides steam deck anyway

[nova yarrow]

Steam deck is so pog

I wanna get one when they back in stock

[ornate shoal]

Smh

[pseudo rain]

looks cool

[limber jolt]

I need that...

[tropic blade]

I have an ungodly amount of benzene

[proper rover]

[small forge]

On PS4 sorry i cant hide UI

The interior is not finished

it took me about a day and a half (I struggled to get a lot of lead)

[pseudo rain]

bazinga

[hasty sluice]

Lead sucks to get in BZ

Mainly because that there is no lead deposits

Or just a severe lack of them

[fast quest]

yeah and no large drillable lead either

[open rover]

3 story aquarium, went all over the map for some of these eggs lol

[pseudo rain]

How did u get cave's mushroom on the bottom?

[open rover]

If you dive into the small hole in the middle of the jelly shroom (where the crab snake usually hides) there’s an egg in there

[pseudo rain]

About the egg i know but how did u get the plant?

[open rover]

Oh yeah I misread your question sorry

I uhhhh

Forgot lol

Oh right

I just hacked it

With my knife

[pseudo rain]

Ohh ok

[dull dock]

or jus punch a mushroom with a prawn and the egg will drop while the shroom go delete

[eternal cliff]

lantern tree 😍 my favourite food in this game

[jagged yew]

You can get seeds from it like any other plant. Smack it with your knife

[pseudo rain]

Gotcha

[teal pecan]

Do you guys use survival or creative more often for these huge megabases

[brazen kelp]

creative

but if you want a challenge then i would do survival

[weary rapids]

i do survival >:3

[proper rover]

A fellow man of culture

[wide zinc]

Creative is def the best for epic base building, don’t get me wrong I have built some awesome bases in survival but it’s better when I’m trying to literally scaffold at least 20 meters off of the floating island to be in creative

[brazen kelp]

yeah its a lot easier to build in creative

[timid thistle]

LilyPad BZ Base.

[rich vine]

Is the map different in creative than in survival? I recently started a creative file and I swear the shallows are different and smaller.

And I couldn't find that giant coral tube.

[pseudo rain]

there are multiple spawns for the lifepod. it wont allways spawn in the same spot in every save slot

i think it just makes you explore

[rich vine]

But the giant coral tube should definitely be somewhere, right?

[jagged yew]

All potential spawns are within like 100m of each other. Theres plenty of coral tubes no matter what

[pseudo rain]

Yes. It's the same map, u just spawned in a different location

[analog schooner]

Any tips on where i can build a giant base in subnautica

I alredy finished the game btw

[jagged yew]

Literally anywhere

The map is massive and open. Tons of space

Unlike below zero. Much better building system but a much smaller map.

[quartz nacelle]

how did you get the screenshot from above

[timid thistle]

Freecam

[quartz nacelle]

how to use/enable that

[timid thistle]

Console commands/cheats

[quartz nacelle]

how

[timid thistle]

To open the console press shift + enter (Bz version)

In SN1 press f3 then press f8
To get a cursor then press where it says disable console then close everything and press enter.

[quartz nacelle]

what's the actual command to put in the console

[timid thistle]

You mean what’s the command for freecam ?

[quartz nacelle]

Yes

[timid thistle]

Just type “freecam” with no caps

[quartz nacelle]

Ah ok

thanks

[timid thistle]

Np

[quartz nacelle]

Also you're base is lookin awesome

[timid thistle]

Thx

[ornate shoal]

Smh

[keen oracle]

?

[analog schooner]

I mean, yeah but like a specific place with good views and mats

Thats what i mean

[strange stump]

Base 189

it isn't done yet.

[ornate shoal]

Ooh. Looks like a degasi base. Might I suggest putting observatories(2)? To that 3 stack multipurpose roon

2 observatories facing each other

[strange stump]

I have an observatory sitting on that x-section there that has a bunch of Data Storage inside of it.

[ornate shoal]

Ooh

[bronze spade]

is that mods?

[strange stump]

yes

some mods.

specifically the FCS AlterraHub was used for some of my bases to link them up.

[bronze spade]

okay

[oblique cave]

Ya like my base decor/farm?
(Done in survival, no commands)

[tropic blade]

laboratory room in the goliath of a structure i call a base

do not ask about the amount of benzene on the shelf

[hasty sluice]

Do the boxes stay there forever

[nova yarrow]

totally subnautica

Also read the desc of the channel

[rancid wren]

before and after

[wanton nest]

might replace solar panels with a reactor

[heady jacinth]

I really wish base modules had snap points for solar panels. Mine always look terrible.

[proper rover]

Agreed, and I wish multipurpose rooms would centre on foundations.

[dull dock]

is than SN or BZ?

[wanton nest]

it’s BZ. Also I’m kind of lost on what to do with the tippy top MPR so I’m about to just scrap it and use the pieces on my postgame base

[oblique cave]

Yes they do

[fast quest]

Snap builder mod

[worthy tusk]

I'd keep them as a backup

[modern carbon]

part of my vanilla subnautica base.

[bronze spade]

cute)

[nova yarrow]

Bro what, how

[jagged yew]

Glitch used to travel in water as if it was land

[nova yarrow]

How to preform

I mean ig I could just remove all the water in the game but how do I do it in vanilla subnautica

[jagged yew]

Build a 2 module-long hallway.
Build a hatch on one end and go inside
Half-construct a bulkhead between the 2 corridor modules
Go outside
Deconstruct the module that doesnt have the hatch on it.
Go back inside the remaining module.
Finish constructing the bulkhead
Open the bulkhead.

You should be able to walk through it, fall out of your base, and land on the ocean floor as if it was land.

This can be reset at any time by re-entering and then leaving a base.

[nova yarrow]

O ok

Noice

[modern carbon]

it can also be used to swim into your base

you can even drive the scanner room drones into your base. i posted a photo in #subnautica-chat yesterday

you can also release fish into your base

just be careful because they can go out through the moonpool

[pseudo rain]

I love my little room

[ornate shoal]

wait what room?

The room room or room

[pseudo rain]

... what

Both?

Both.

[ornate shoal]

Ok

I like it

[thorn patio]

Guys

i may or may not have filled a alien containment full of eggs and fish

it overfilled

and now theres like 70 fish in my base

[random meadow]

Eat them

[thorn patio]

no

[nova yarrow]

You have power for days

bio reactor

[waxen timber]

Trying to buy corn cube

[fast quest]

RIP

miss the base location polls, they were fun

[nova yarrow]

How far up did you go

Yo thst was in 2021

2020*

[fast quest]

I was just looking at some of my first messages in this channel and saw one of them

[thorn patio]

true

but thats what the cuddle fish are for

[worthy tusk]

No, oculus or even acid mushrooms are far better

[thorn patio]

Its a joke

Dońt put cuddle fish in bioreactor

Use trivalves

[modern carbon]

ooops! wrong channel!!

[worthy tusk]

trivalves?

[thorn patio]

yea

[thorn patio]

nope

dont worry about it LJ

dont look it up either

its a Sub zero thing

[modern carbon]

i accidentally posted some photos here that i ment to post in #subnautica-chat

[thorn patio]

ohhhhhhhhh

[pseudo rain]

Is it realistic that I could make ||a mobile base in the cyclops? Id just need outposts to charge powercells||

[worthy tusk]

Yeah.
Better yet, you could use thermal vents or geysers to charge it late game.

[pseudo rain]

Sounds pretty good

[rose flume]

I just removed a bunch of messages so friendly reminder that this channel is for bases, not for random conversations 😉

[nova yarrow]

I was just scrolling through pins and saw this absolute huge beauty

[worthy tusk]

oh my word

[nova yarrow]

Mans built the whole of New York City in SN1

[worthy tusk]

yah

just imagine the sheer amount of resources that would need...

[nova yarrow]

I don’t believe that’s not made in creative

[worthy tusk]

ah right

[nova yarrow]

If it’s made in survival respect+++++++++++++

[worthy tusk]

indeed

[nova yarrow]

Must have taken 5-20 hours either way 💀

[worthy tusk]

dupe glitches do exist, but still

[nova yarrow]

My PC would explode

After loading in 1/4 of that

Tbh now that I think about it you can make a base out of a single tube

[worthy tusk]

yeah

ultra compact base

[nova yarrow]

🤔

Can a single bed fit in a tube?

[worthy tusk]

uh... I'm not sure

[ornate shoal]

Yeah... Try

[fast quest]

maybe

[nova yarrow]

Can’t rn I’ll try tmmrw

[pseudo rain]

WHAT

[modern carbon]

don't worry about it!

[ornate shoal]

Is that vanilla tho?

🍦

[dull dock]

how much lag time is it when u add 1 compartment to that

[pseudo rain]

very vanilla

[thorny river]

1 to 2 minutes of a frozen screen

[waxen kettle]

y’all didn’t see this💀

[rose flume]

As in completely off-topic discussions, this is bases related.

[waxen kettle]

ok

[nova yarrow]

POV: you have infinite slow mode in general bc u said another word for pee that starts with “pi”

[waxen timber]

Wait you can do something like that?

[nova yarrow]

Yea look

I can’t talk anywhere but here

See in general I have 0:05 slow mode

But the number doesn’t go down

It just stays at 0:05

[rose flume]

Restart Discord

[nova yarrow]

It work now

Thanks thom

[nova yarrow]

POV: Wrong timeline

[modern carbon]

nice. i love that glitch. it's so useful. you wouldn't believe

[dull dock]

the time travel door

also how that work

[nova yarrow]

Build two tubes it can be glass tube or normal tube

Place a solar panel on the one that you aren’t going to deconstruct

(Solar panel isint necessary in creative)

Then place a bulkhead door in between the tubes but don’t fully construct the bulk head for

Door*

Than go outside and deconstruct the tube the solar panel isint on

And then finish constructing bulkhead door

And boom! Now you can walk underwater

Or just use it for asthmatics

Asthetics*

@dull dock

[dull dock]

ty

[whole sable]

Gonna use this for an island base so that I don’t need to use hatches

[modern carbon]

you can also swim in your base with it

[nova yarrow]

Lmao

to calculate how many meters per second the water and fish move compared to the bulkhead wich you must learn how fast opens

ahem

[vestal jacinth]

When you activate that glitch do you still lose oxygen?

[modern carbon]

if you walk out of your base with it: no! if you swim into your base with it: yes.

[dull dock]

it sop with ssg ig

[soft veldt]

you also lose air if the base isnt powered

[willow kiln]

Bedroom in the active lava zone , done in survival (decorations mod used)

[lone zealot]

That's really cool looking! I love building mods, I forgot what it was called but there was one where when you built, it would terraform the surrounding land so you could make really cool cave builds. It looks awesome, would love to see more :D

[nova yarrow]

Why is there a broken seamoth part in the middle of the bedroom

and where’s the bed

[dire dawn]

my base

[worthy tusk]

window superiority 👌

[willow kiln]

the bed is to the right in an observatory

[willow kiln]

mainly because my seamoth broke on the way down there (i have the more depth module mod)

[nova yarrow]

U should put it in a lava zone themed alien containment (or lost river themed if it broke in lost river)

[willow kiln]

yeah might put it in the lost river cos it broke near the entrance to lava

[proper rover]

[dark heart]

I have that as my xbox pf pic lmao also great base

[modern night]

🏠 awesome-base

[proper rover]

Agreed

[ruby nebula]

Only in bz sadly hatches turn into bulkheads when out of water

[whole sable]

Ye, I know

[ruby nebula]

What do you mean it’s just a seamoth bed

[whole sable]

I was referring to regular subnautica

[ruby nebula]

I know

[ruby nebula]

Place it like on the cove tree

[timid thistle]

Base

[fast quest]

This feature is coming with experimental though

[ornate shoal]

Ooh

I haven't played BZ/SN in half a month

[sharp frigate]

whwat happened to the ground lol

[ornate shoal]

Why is the terrain like that? A big divot like area

[timid thistle]

Was messing around with the terraforming mod.

[timid thistle]

I was messing with the terraforming mod.

[ornate shoal]

Ohh

I love that terrain tho

[half forge]

oh i love this location. built my first ever base there and loved it

[pseudo rain]

do yall think it would be appropriate to post modded bases here

Like heavily modded

[nova yarrow]

Yea

As long as it’s a base

If you can post a one tube base I think you can post a modded one

[pseudo rain]

true lo

Gonna find that stupid mega elevator I built with fcs tommorow then

[nova yarrow]

W it

W o t *

[pseudo rain]

still might add more room

[pseudo rain]

This looks very very close to mine lol

[quartz nacelle]

My end game Subnautica base

[stable moth]

Lol the random crop plots on the base 😂

[hollow moth]

I have this weird tendency to build my best looking bases on hardcore r any of u guys the same

[ornate escarp]

Respect.

[pseudo rain]

Are you having low Fps?

Because I have and when I started playing subnautica was playing on max and getting 80fps but now I'm having 45fps on medium

[quartz nacelle]

That's 100 something

Lol

[pseudo rain]

And you don't lose FPS?

[quartz nacelle]

Screenshot didn't cover it fully

[quartz nacelle]

Yeah a lot sometimes

[pseudo rain]

But how you don't loose your fps

Ah ok

I always have lags even that at the start I had 80-90fps

[quartz nacelle]

I don't think every biome or area is equally optimized

[pseudo rain]

Yes... Kelp forest

And mushroom forest

They are laggy

[quartz nacelle]

I usually drops at around 40-60 but I don't quite remember in which biome specifically

[arctic coyote]

I feel ya 😔

[random meadow]

is decorationsmod gonna come to blz?

[eternal cliff]

nono the growbeds WHY please

other than that nice base

[quartz nacelle]

I didn't pay too much attention to the growbeds lol as I wanted to get everything setup and get my depth modules done so I can finally explore the lava zone lol

[eternal cliff]

Ah alright lol

gl btw

[pseudo rain]

Probably not. If so it will be by a different author most likely since afaik the creator of the mod abandoned it

[fast quest]

The author has already stated that they've been working on a version for Below Zero so I don't know where you got that information

[lime marsh]

My base is 1 hall compartment

You dont need to see it, thats how awesome it is

[jagged yew]

Pfft. Mines one foundation

[random meadow]

umm what? I asked a question and didn't say they weren't porting it? lol

[keen oracle]

yeah he didn't say he thought it was coming to BZ, he just asked if it was
and not everybody keeps up to date on stuff the creator says

[oblique cave]

Ayo where the actual bases at? Lol

[tepid pagoda]

here

[jagged yew]

Woah

Thats got to be the best base ive ever seen

[nova yarrow]

You can do that!?

[modern carbon]

I'm going to have to try that

[proper rover]

I love how technically it’s a biome as well

[tranquil niche]

Here is my first official base of BZ its still a bit bare

[dull dock]

do u have control room?

[wanton nest]

I got a little sentimental with my post-game build. Such a great game series.

I guess for context, I name all my bases after historical sites, and the # just denotes the order I started building it in.

[ornate shoal]

Wow

[quartz nacelle]

my below zero base in the original game

[tranquil niche]

I do now

[random meadow]

Suggestment put the Multi purpose room on the x Compartment and movve the Foundation to the free Exit of the X Hallway. Put a Hatch there so you exit onto the foundation

[tranquil niche]

Thats not a bad idea

[random meadow]

Maybe put a extra Foundation under the X hallway aswell

[tranquil niche]

I can send a pic of how it looks now

[random meadow]

sure

[tranquil niche]

just gotta finish trucking home lol

[random meadow]

let me go start my game and show you my base one sec

[tranquil niche]

This is what it is currently

[random meadow]

I am Endgame btw I have beat the game already

[tranquil niche]

Im still probally early mid-game

[random meadow]

Nice maybe out the cannerroom on a free X hallway side and the multipurposeroom stays

Put the scannerroom*

[tranquil niche]

so the multipurpose is my Bio Reactor

and off of that is scanner and command

[random meadow]

yeah I do the same thing but I have a nuklear reactor

[tranquil niche]

I do want to move the Bio reactor out some

[random meadow]

those are 2 Vehicle bays yes

thats my main abse I have ssevral outposts Most of them are 1 Big room

*base

[tranquil niche]

I do like it I am upset the big rooms arent as modular as I would like

they have only 10 wall slots

and they do the bumpout thing

[random meadow]

Big Rooms are very glitchy with things on walls

I cant pick up half the posters I have on my walls xD

Wanna see interior?

[tranquil niche]

thats mine

[tranquil niche]

sure

I also run into the poster bugs

[random meadow]

okay come vc il stream it

[tranquil niche]

@random meadow

[random meadow]

nice

[tranquil niche]

Pda Export Quality is worse than just a steam screenshot haha

[modern carbon]

it's the other way around for me. but i don't export the screenshots, i just go into the save files and copy them from there. that's also how you can add custom photos to your save

[pseudo rain]

How do you find enough titanium

I can't find any except breaking crops

[random meadow]

At the edge of the map by the void theres lots of Ores to mine with prawnsuit

[proper rover]

Bz or Sn?

[pallid gyro]

in bz, all outcrops have a chance of dropping titanium, in base game, theres scrap metal everywhere around the map that you can fabricate into titanium

[waxen timber]

You can also scan some stuff you already scanned

Or at some point drilling

[pallid gyro]

mhm

[pseudo rain]

Bz

[proper rover]

Collect metal salvage near the ||mercury|| wrecks, or look around twisty for fragments to scan and in kelp caves.

[pseudo rain]

oh in subnautica you basically had access to infinite titanium

[worthy tusk]

and yet you still run out super often...

[pallid gyro]

mhm

||message: the lost river is chalk full of titanium nodes for the prawn to mine||

[waxen timber]

And other stuff too

[pallid gyro]

mhm

[waxen timber]

||For even later game ILZ is just full of resources||

[pallid gyro]

but i find a lot of titanium there

[waxen timber]

Yes

But there are tons of other stuff too

Especially in ||tree||

[pallid gyro]

really? i just thought that was a nice place to build a base and troll on leviathans

[waxen timber]

Yep

Just go below the blue stuff that doesn't even hurt you

[pallid gyro]

its the green stuff to watch out for

[waxen timber]

There is a lot of green stuff there

||Uraninite||

[pallid gyro]

i ment the brine, but yeah if subnautica followed real world stuff, that would be something to watch out for, too

[waxen timber]

As far as I know raw material isn't that bad, and concidering what radiation suit can survive according to PDA standard suit should still offer good protection

And it can't really get into your organism in the first place because you are in full suit breathing from a tank

[pallid gyro]

also we should move this over to #subnautica-chat

[waxen timber]

Ok

[wanton nest]

not pictured: power outages every time i have both water purifiers going at once. but i really enjoy the process of running the solar panels and topping off the bio reactor. gives me a reason to patrol the base.

[pseudo rain]

Is that a mod or dlc?

[pallid gyro]

they added bz base building into base game, although its only with certain things

dont believe you can get it with survival

[pseudo rain]

Guess I'll check it out

[pallid gyro]

i think you need commands for it

[rose flume]

You need to be in creative or use commands yes, do note that it isn’t available yet for non Steam experimental versions.

[pseudo rain]

Bummer

It would be a reason to restart playing the og Subnautica

[rose flume]

Honestly the devs should do a new base building competition once the base pieces are on all platforms 👀

[pseudo rain]

No foundations, a bit odd

[cerulean zodiac]

where legs

The entire base defies physics

[pseudo rain]

oh thats cool

[pallid gyro]

it only works in creative or with commands though

[chrome willow]

i'm in creative and i don't see anything new

[keen oracle]

probably not in experimental then

[pallid gyro]

its not on all versions

[keen oracle]

that too

[fair juniper]

idk why there weren't any legs sometimes when i log in there are and other times there aren't i didn't even notice they were missing

[dull dock]

sheee

[pseudo rain]

It depends if the your console can or cannot load them

[quartz nacelle]

Thanks😄

[proper rover]

Sometimes, if you deconstruct and then rebuild something like a reinforcement then it can make the supports appear again.

[keen oracle]

yeah it's an annoying bug that is mostly fixed in BZ

[pseudo rain]

Isn't your game laggy because of this big base?

[quartz nacelle]

I was too focused in making the base that I didn't notice the performance but yeah considering how many base pieces I put there, I sure've had lost some frames.

[fleet dragon]

My base and rides

My farm, power and storage

Other things

Thoughts?

Thanks

[quartz nacelle]

Looking clean

[oblique cave]

ooo experimental

[worthy tusk]

Two nuclear reactors? Holy moly

[worldly wind]

fully upgraded tree cove base i guess

[pseudo rain]

You must have very low fps

[fair juniper]

i finally finished my storage room

[vague shale]

Hi just wondering im making a journal/notebook/scrapbook on Subnautica DM pictures of ideas or gear logos
and i need some ideas

[fleet dragon]

Nope I'm on an Xbox bruv

[fleet dragon]

Yea? Is that rare or?

[worthy tusk]

Not necessarily, it's just that even one of those provides a lot of power.

[dull dock]

laughs in 100 nuclear reactors

[strange stump]

I did it. I have now made screenshotception in my Subnautica Base using FCS's new mod. Here's the TV it was done with.

this is the window to the left.

[stark dust]

It looks so mysterious

[pseudo rain]

What?

[pseudo rain]

Also how to have these structures from BZ

[spring sequoia]

experimental branch, i dont use it

[bronze thistle]

Looking nice

[spring sequoia]

damn thats a lotta solar panels
i like how you arranged them in lines tho

[worthy tusk]

holy moly, solar panels go brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

Do you just not care for bioreactors and/or nuclear reactors?

[waxen timber]

Does anyone have rough estimation to when new buildings will be added as a full update?

[timid thistle]

I did put nuclear and bioreactors.

[tardy lynx]

my base

[worthy tusk]

Why do you need that much power?

[timid thistle]

Idk

[heady jacinth]

I like using unpowered nuclear reactors as battery banks. While I'm away from base, a few solar panels or thermal plants can fill up the power capacity. Then, when I come back, I can charge batteries and power cells, run the fabricator, etc. This works especially well in the mid game, when you don't have lots of access to uranite yet, but need more juice.

[pallid gyro]

that is actually really smart

[heady jacinth]

I really wish there was a battery bank wall module, like the water filtration machine. Let it serve double duty as a recharger; you can slot batteries and power cells into it, and they can both get charged, or power the base if the main power supply is lost.

[pallid gyro]

i know

theres a mod that has it but it seriously needs to be vanilla

[worthy tusk]

I don't think that's how it works...

[pallid gyro]

its not suppost to work like that, but it does work

adding power sources allows for the base to hold more power

[worthy tusk]

Huh.

Welp, doesn't work for water filtration machines! 😄

[pallid gyro]

thats because they dont give power

[worthy tusk]

I know, they take massive amounts of power instead. When trying to store energy, it just gets guzzled by the machine instead.

[pallid gyro]

mhm

my question is: who would try using water filtration machines as batteries?

[worthy tusk]

Nobody. That was never my point.

[pallid gyro]

it sounded like somebody actually tried that

[pseudo rain]

s o l a r p a n e l

[stuck thicket]

https://tenor.com/view/unlimited-power-star-wars-gif-10270127

[ornate escarp]

Thom has more.

[rose drum]

I built this in creative (took pic with pda, then pressed screenshot button)

[keen oracle]

10k power

wait wrong screenshot

this one

3 nuclear reactors, 2 bioreactors and 6 thermal reactors

[worthy tusk]

goodness
got a lot of filtration machines? 😄

[proper rover]

How did you furnish all that???

[worthy tusk]

Probably with lots of time.

[proper rover]

I would never have the patience to do that 😆

[keen oracle]

5 to be exact

also, yes it just took a ton of time gathering titanium 😛

[proper rover]

Can relate

[keen oracle]

I'm also working on this

don't ask me how long I spent gathering titanium for this

[proper rover]

What the he-

How much titanium is in your world??

[keen oracle]

not much anymore xD

[proper rover]

What’s it even for lmao

And the lag 💀

[keen oracle]

containment site to study a certain creature...: )

surprisingly it actually doesn't lag that much so long as I'm not holding my habitat builder

the main frame is almost done, it still needs a roof then comes the interior and a couple other parts added on

[proper rover]

Interior??

You’re decorating that sucker?

[keen oracle]

I plan to put in a bunch of growbeds

so I can get some plant action going on in there

[proper rover]

👌

[keen oracle]

the main "interior" is gonna be inside the double 8-story multipurpose room tower at the back

I might add some more corridors to improve the viewing area

[proper rover]

I’m guessing those will be “observation” and “science” areas

If you get what I mean

[keen oracle]

yeah
I just wanted to make a Reaper containment in hardcore for the flex for fun but I'm giving it the lore that it's a scientific research site to study the Reaper more closely, sort of like the Kong Containment in Godzilla vs Kong (only not nearly as expansive lol)

[proper rover]

I get you xD

Good fodder for the youtube channel as well

[keen oracle]

yeah I'm probably gonna make a video on it when it's done

my thought process was pretty much, "if I'm gonna make a leviathan cage I may as well do it in hardcore" 😂

[proper rover]

Because why not 😆

[keen oracle]

yep

[worthy tusk]

It might go faster by abusing dupe glitches

[keen oracle]

nah I don't like duping stuff, it's cheaty

I'll only dupe if I physically run out of titanium in the world

which is entirely possible considering I still have a void base planned after this thing gets done LOL

[worthy tusk]

good grief

[keen oracle]

gotta make that epic stuff in hardcore

[proper rover]

Talk about dedication

[lime marsh]

Cyclops is a base, you cant change my mind

[tranquil niche]

Correct I can't becase I think it should be a base too

[worthy tusk]

Cyclops is a ||shield generator fabricator||

[lime marsh]

Lost River Underbrine Mining Site

Prawn Park

Underbrine Observatory

1 of 12 Underbrine Mining Tunnels

Emergency Base

A better view

[cerulean zodiac]

The bottom part is diagonal

Nice

I don't see that sort of thing very often

[lime marsh]

Yeah

Idk how i did it ngl

[cerulean zodiac]

2 separate bases in very close proximity, I presume

[lime marsh]

Maybe idk

[grim nebula]

is playstation really that color and so fuzzy?

[lime marsh]

Nah

Its just because im taking it from my phone

The real color is very vibrant

Its identical to the visuals on pc

[grim nebula]

fair enough I know how annoying consoles can be for sharing media

[lime marsh]

yea

[grim nebula]

used to only have a 360 and ps3 for years

was pain

[lime marsh]

oof

[grim nebula]

I spent waaaaay too long making this base look nice, I just wanted to show someone

I just really wish I had the same building options as the sims 4 in terms of object placement

[lime marsh]

Thats so noice

Mods, i assume?

[grim nebula]

yeah just a few.

[cerulean zodiac]

Which mods did you use?

[grim nebula]

big ones are: Decorations mod, FCS mods, Building tweaks, and snap builder.

[cerulean zodiac]

Ok, thanks

[real pond]

Ohaii:) Where can I find good mods, is there a reliable site?

[fast quest]

nexus mods should have most

[strange stump]

I like!

[stark dust]

prison huh?

[fossil warren]

Not full base but still

[proper rover]

👌

[lime marsh]

Now make the base under brine

I dare you

[fossil warren]

What’s that?

[lime marsh]

...make a base under the lost river brine

[bronze thistle]

What is brine

[waxen timber]

Green/yellow fog at the bottom

[fossil warren]

Yeah sure

[pallid gyro]

i love that location lol

[fossil warren]

:)

[keen oracle]

I like to think of it as more of a containment to study the Reaper more closely

[pallid gyro]

if yall want to study a reaper, do what i did and go out in the mushroom forest to find fragments. ended up next to a reaper.

[waxen timber]

[Sea Emperor is getting very hecking angry]

[keen oracle]

nah mate I'm camped out in the Dunes

also, the "studying a Reaper" part is more just lore of my save than actual function

it's mainly just a fun project to work on cause why not lol

[pallid gyro]

the forbidden biome

[keen oracle]

surprisingly I've only been attacked by a Reaper 2 or 3 times through the entire time I've been building this thing

guess they aren't too interested in me 😛

[pallid gyro]

i dont think ive ever been attacked by a reaper

[keen oracle]

I find that somewhat difficult to believe xD

[pallid gyro]

at least not in a few years lol

[pseudo rain]

is it smart to move in ur cyclops

[pallid gyro]

it can be depending on your playstyle

personally, i set up my cyclops to work as a temporary base away from home, such as adding farms, a bed, and a fabricator in it

[mental dawn]

and you can just put down a small base with nuclear/bio reactor and charge your cyclops

[mental dawn]

if i dont forgot it i will send a video of how i use cyclops as a base

it even has bed etc 💀

[pseudo rain]

yeah im planning to move in it hehehe

how do u repare it btw

[mental dawn]

with repair tool

when a lev attacks

cyclops starts leaking

and there should be spots to repair outside

[pseudo rain]

oh so u repair the cyclops in the outside

im not aiming for it to be attacked by a lev lol

[mental dawn]

it can easily take 6-7 hits from ghost levs

[pseudo rain]

but is it good idea to move in the cyclops?

how many power cell chargers do i need to make

[mental dawn]

i mean

yeah

[mental dawn]

personally

i just slap a base down and let it charge while i farm or just go afk

[mental dawn]

it depends on how often you charge

wirh engine efficiency module it cells last long

[pseudo rain]

ig ill just make one and use the engine efficiencuy

cuz ill be moving a bit a while

[mental dawn]

oh also

prawn suit

such power hungry thing

[pseudo rain]

ill make it sit in my cyclops ill abandone my sea moth

[pseudo rain]

does the cyclops charge pwarn suit or no

and damn that base looks hot

[mental dawn]

it charges

[pseudo rain]

so yes

[pseudo rain]

perfect

[mental dawn]

oh also

because of cyclops and prawn suit uses the same battery

every prawn suit charge

takes 33% of your power

considering you have no left

[pseudo rain]

OOF

thats ok ill make a modin effiecnt and a power cell charger just 1 and a bed

so ill sleep so it charges

[pseudo rain]

oop

perfectisn

[mental dawn]

i keep some nuclear rods

and whenever i need power i just put down a multipurpose room with powercell charge

tho boireactor is also usefull

as food

lantern trees never run out of fruit

so you can eat bunch of them without worrying and

marblemelons for

water intake

[keen oracle]

progress update

[pseudo rain]

wtf

[pseudo rain]

PROGRESS?????

[keen oracle]

there's still a lot more work to do after finishing the roof

[jagged yew]

How has your pc not detonated yet

[keen oracle]

that's a good question xD

[dull dock]

im sorry WHAT

[lime marsh]

Waht

How are u gonna even contain the reaper in there

[dull dock]

that lag time is gonna be 2mins soon enough

[worldly wind]

finally....

[worldly wind]

how

[quick apex]

Wow, this is the most beutiful subnautica base I have ever seen.

[worldly wind]

thanks😄

[quick apex]

Your welcome.

[worldly wind]

i have spent like 3 hours
