below-zero-chat

[pliant jetty]

Any other uses? I don't need details if it's spoilery

Gardening I guess

[west mountain]

No, just slows you down otherwise

[pliant jetty]

Aight, I guess I'll skip it

[west mountain]

It does not speed them up, you just sleep while it happens, so its faster for you 🙂

[west mountain]

Build one and if you dont like it just put it aside

[pliant jetty]

Sure, speeds then up irl

[broken badge]

or save before building, and if you don’t like it, reload your save

[tacit thorn]

I have a ton of ion cubes. should I make ion cells for all my tools?

[west mountain]

Thats an option yes. Ion power cells for seatruck and prawn. And most imporant the recyclotron

[pliant jetty]

I meant to ask about the quantum locker

Is there a trick to getting good use out of it.

[tacit thorn]

well, its basically extra 12 inv slots

[pliant jetty]

Obviously, it's a bit bag of holding

But I wondered if their was a way to get smarter use out of it

Like, setting it to auto empty at a set location etc, I dunno

[pliant jetty]

Less because you need to carry it

[west mountain]

Dont expect anything in that direction. Its only you and Robbin.

[pliant jetty]

Or is it 16-4

[west mountain]

It gives you 16 spaces for 4

[pliant jetty]

Ah, so +12

[west mountain]

Yes, but you have to go out and deploy it.

[pliant jetty]

Right, that's worth doing, they need to be outside to deploy?

Should be allowed to deploy inside tbh 😁

[west mountain]

Yes, its just not worth the hassle. I made one and its occuping now 4 spaces in a locker 🙂

[tacit thorn]

What happens if you put quantum locker inside a quantum locker?

[west mountain]

Thats what I wanted to ask you right now

[broken badge]

Nothing really

You can’t stick things inside a quantum locker and put it inside another one

[ivory charm]

i recycled mine

[broken badge]

Quantum lockers are nothing more than shared storage. Never found them to be useful tbh

[tacit thorn]

if putting a locker inside another q locker doesnt trigger explosion, the devs clearly didnt do their homework 🤣

[ivory charm]

the only scenario i can think of when they'd be useful is when ur trying to cram every last bit of ur inventory full of titanium

[ivory charm]

well that would be useless because quantum lockers are like minecraft enderchests

[broken badge]

Storage and fabricator module are more effective, you can compress titanium into ingots

[ivory charm]

they share their inventory so it wouldn't give more storage

[broken badge]

And then use recyclotron to decompress them when you get back to base

[ivory charm]

i know i didn't say it was useful i just said that's the only scenario i'd use it in

[broken badge]

Even better is when you’re out and about, make plasteel ingots

[ivory charm]

true

[broken badge]

I make whatever I can, plasteel, copper wiring, wiring kits, etc

Glass

[ivory charm]

smart

[tacit thorn]

Good news, scanner rooms stack

[west mountain]

Guess how much material is stored in this locker

[ivory charm]

my last play thru i didn't find all fabricator frags for my seatruck so i finished the game and didn't play it again before doing that

[ivory charm]

NAH BRO what 💀

caps lock automod sucks

[west mountain]

And its not my record holder anymore. I have a locker full of seatruck depth upgrade MK1. That is worth 13 pieces of material each. So 13 lockers in 1 locker.

[ivory charm]

💀

u too rich

tbh when i beat the game i never see the point in playing past that because there's not reeeealy any progression plus there's a lotta other games i want to play

[balmy saddle]

wrong channel

[west mountain]

I build 19 bases in each biome and starting my 20th base this week. I emptied the entire map of all resources. 350 hrs of gameplay.

[ivory charm]

no?

[hollow birch]

Compared to the smaller ones

[ivory charm]

why 💀

[west mountain]

Because I love to play BZ

[hollow birch]

Bro i like that

[ivory charm]

alright

[hollow birch]

Below zero is honestly kinda better than actual subnautica
I like the lore

[ivory charm]

do u got ||teleporter|| modules at each one?

[ivory charm]

unbiased, it is, but i prefer sn for like

og memories

[west mountain]

Teleporter module is useless to travel around, just to bring you back to the seatruck from where you are.

[hollow birch]

I was playing sn when I was kind of more foolish and I have bad memories with the reapers

I remember the first time I saw a repear in the distance
I was like "bro wtf is this snake?"

I saw only his shade and I don't know anything about the creatures

That outline scared me away from the back of aurora anyway

[ivory charm]

oh ok

[carmine bobcat]

@west mountain

[west mountain]

Most players like the one they played first better, because of all the first time memories.

[ivory charm]

i've never used it so i just assumed it teleports u to another module

[hollow birch]

Gg

[carmine bobcat]

time to do something

one thing*

[west mountain]

Then you are now heading to ||red crystal cave|| in the east of ||crystal cavern||. Good luck.

[hollow birch]

Well i have some reasons why I prefer bz

• lore
• the fact I don't have to be always scared of radiation
• its idea is far more cool for me and I know more about the character

[carmine bobcat]

time to release the fish

[storm imp]

I think it's spelled ||crystal||

[carmine bobcat]

it is

[west mountain]

Sorry, my German influence: Kristall

[hollow birch]

It took me a long time to realise how did ||Sam|| die
I kinda wasn't looking at the lore the first time and I was deeper into it a bit later

[hollow birch]

Kryształ in polish

[carmine bobcat]

it looks so cute I can't leave it

nice animations

[tacit thorn]

anything useful I can do with pile of flares?

they don't make great prawn cannon ammo

[carmine bobcat]

it can make snow stalkers run away

[hollow birch]

I used flares as a light source smtms

[next current]

Respectable.

[carmine bobcat]

can I get the trivalve blue come with me into my seatruck

[next current]

Also, they have a 10% resistance to the cold while held.

[next current]

No sadly.

[carmine bobcat]

:(

welp time to say goodbye

[tacit thorn]

can you poick it up and pack into pocket?

[next current]

No.

It's the same as the Cuddlefish.

[indigo moth]

You should be able to pick back up

[west mountain]

No, he will not follow you inside, just outside

[west mountain]

You just have to make him follow you and swim to the new location. He will always stay with you as long as you are outside. He will even walk on land with you

[west mountain]

No, once released you can no longer pick him up.

[indigo moth]

Yeah I know but they should make it where you can

[clever crow]

trivalves got stuck between seatruck modules and would constantly get 'run over'

[ancient crag]

Guy can someone help me? Where can i find the ||organs of alan?|| I just did the ||curing of the frozen l.||

[carmine bobcat]

||Crystal cavern||

[west mountain]

||organs are in crystal cavern||

[ancient crag]

Wait really?

ow man..

[carmine bobcat]

||Go southwest and u will see alot of crystals and a hole||

[ancient crag]

I was there

[carmine bobcat]

ok

[west mountain]

But did you already get the ||tissue||?

[ancient crag]

what ||tissue||

[west mountain]

Body part

[carmine bobcat]

||The tissue from phi||

||Phi dock||

[ancient crag]

Im missing only the ||organs||

[carmine bobcat]

good

[west mountain]

Ok great the you go down now

[ancient crag]

In the ||crystal caverns?||

[carmine bobcat]

yes

[west mountain]

Correct

[ancient crag]

And is it in the ||red crystal facility||

[carmine bobcat]

no

[west mountain]

No that comes later

[carmine bobcat]

||The red crystal facility is where u need to build the arhitect||

[ancient crag]

I know

wait there are other ||facilities than the red crystal one||

[west mountain]

If you want to save time then you bring all known ingredience plus one ion cube with you

[west mountain]

You have to find it

[ancient crag]

Okay

on the ground?

[west mountain]

in the ground

[ancient crag]

IN ?

i have to dig it up ?

[west mountain]

You look for ||a massive crystal structure hanging from ceiling and rising from the ground. Look inside there||

[ancient crag]

Alright

thanks guys without you i would be lost

[carmine bobcat]

I got into ||The red crystals||

[west mountain]

Great

[carmine bobcat]

but I can't find ||The fabricator base||

[west mountain]

All the way down

Deepest point in the game

[next current]

It's built into some ||crystals so the entrance is sorta sticking out||

[tacit thorn]

I like the looters marking method for cave exploration.
Are there any interactables or breakables in the area?
If yes, loot.
If no, the area has been visited before, move along.

[carmine bobcat]

I can't find it

[west mountain]

As you are the only looter in the game should be easy to track your looting 😄

[west mountain]

How deep are you

[carmine bobcat]

919

[west mountain]

Its at 950+

[carmine bobcat]

935 now

[west mountain]

You might be in a side cave

[carmine bobcat]

what is that

[tacit thorn]

Indeed. and if there was more of us, clearly I aint going to stick around if room was already cleared

[carmine bobcat]

help there are 2 leviathans

[west mountain]

Not the main area. Try to go back and deeper

[west mountain]

Great. Now you are getting closer

[carmine bobcat]

wait, I can see it on my seaglide

it wasn't there

I found it

[west mountain]

Finally! Well done.

[eternal garnet]

ideally, for more fun post-game, don't save now, and not until the end

[carmine bobcat]

post game?

[eternal garnet]

you can load your game, after, and play on. If you want

[carmine bobcat]

but there is one thing

I need water

[eternal garnet]

heatblade some fish outside?

[storm imp]

tasty fish grease

[carmine bobcat]

the process is slow

now I need to go back up?

[eternal garnet]

he tells you where to go

[carmine bobcat]

no like do I leave the ||Crystal cavern||

[eternal garnet]

yes

As soon as he tells you where to go

[carmine bobcat]

I forgot the exit

I found it

is || the arhitect phase gate facility on land or underwater||

[west mountain]

||On Land behind outpost zero||

[carmine bobcat]

||Idk where outpost zero is||

[west mountain]

You got a beacon to the facility. Just go there

[carmine bobcat]

ok

[west mountain]

Then you are gping to see it now

[carmine bobcat]

ggs

10/10 game

[tacit thorn]

This game could really use some conveyor belts and autosorters for unloading my seatruck

[west mountain]

I find it pleasing, rewarding and relaxing to clean out my seatruck and put the items in my mega storage after my gathering runs.

[tacit thorn]

while counting my hoard is pleasing, at some point, even a dragon has to hire an accountant.
I know I'm rich! Just put it with the other piles of gold.

[west mountain]

I started to fill up seamonkey nests with all the gold i have no use for

[tacit thorn]

do flares get used up?

[eternal garnet]

very slowly, but yes. Actually I haven't seen it happen

[west mountain]

Yes i did not believe it and tested it. But they do after about 2 min.

[eternal garnet]

then why no health meter? hmmmmmmmm?

[west mountain]

Yes wierd. Just grab one and time it till it runs out

[tacit thorn]

nice, that means there is actual sane ingame reason why we ever find more than three of them

[west mountain]

Yes and they are easy to craft more

[tacit thorn]

no more! I want to get rid of ones I have!

Shooting them at lobster leviathan didn't seem to have any effects

the very last piece of lithium in half click radius from my base and this happens

[west mountain]

Did you also drill out everything with prawn?

[tacit thorn]

are the nets drillable??

[west mountain]

No but down in koppa mine are lots of drillable resorces

[tacit thorn]

already looted days ago. I want this one last single piece of lithium

would vortex torpedo affect the piece? already tried propulsion cannon both handheld and prawn [can't target]. gravity trap moved it slightly, but still stuck in that spot

[eternal garnet]

dude. move on

or ghost into the wall

[true lintel]

im in ||the greenhouse||, what should i take home, and ||do some of the things expire?||

[eternal garnet]

for planting, nothing expires. Pepper fruit (below in the tunnel), Preston fruit.

3x PDA

was there only 2 PDA? I forget

[sterile shell]

Lmao just platinumed Below Zero on PS5

[true lintel]

this?

[sterile shell]

You truly love to see it

[next current]

Nice.

[next current]

There's only two.

Maybe you're thinking of the entry you get after scanning ||maida herself||.

[true lintel]

weird to see slight statistic differences compared to steam percents

[sterile shell]

now time to platinum the PS5 version of the OG Subnautica

[true lintel]

most are just story based

[sterile shell]

okay

i've played both BZ and the OG game on PC

so i know everything about em

[next current]

That's kinda how most story-based games achievements are.

[true lintel]

should i go into the dead zone?

[sterile shell]

yes

[true lintel]

for fun of course

[sterile shell]

yes

[next current]

Nothin' much there.

[true lintel]

actually no im too scared

[next current]

It doesn't even give you an entry.

[true lintel]

oh

so just an area you could go

[next current]

Yeah.

[true lintel]

frends

[next current]

Did you know that you can feed them?

[broken badge]

They seemed to think I had food
They put on quite the performance lol😂

I heard you used to could ride them. Sad you can’t anymore😔

[graceful girder]

Is there a lead outcrop to use the drill arm on?

[eternal garnet]

sorry, no

[wind stirrup]

is the void in this game or is this just a really deep hole

[eternal garnet]

there is, south, southeast and east

[storm imp]

managed to fit the seatruck into ||koppa mining site||

[naive lotus]

h-how

[eternal garnet]

yes, we do that. Go at the top, wiggle it in kinda sideways

[storm imp]

I just turned it sideways and strafed through

I keep mistaking these blasted ||red featherfish|| for rubies

[eternal garnet]

Bite into it hard. If you lose 3 teeth, it's a ruby

[graceful girder]

What if you loose 1 or 2

[storm imp]

half fish half ruby

[naive lotus]

the trick is cook it rare/medium rare

[naive lotus]

still can't find a habitat builder

[eternal garnet]

Best location, because it also has a large o2 tank: 120m down in twisty bridge canyon by a little building

[naive lotus]

tks, i'll go there

[edgy shadow]

Best location to find prawn suit parts would be near the frozen leviathan

[jolly marten]

man im dead

[eternal garnet]

hm? There's only one there. Go koppa mine. Also a couple at one of the wrecks

[edgy shadow]

Ah my bad

Remember that achievement for curing the frozen leviathan from the kharaa?

[wind stirrup]

I am have got ||architect skeleton woohoo||

[edgy shadow]

Epik man

[wind stirrup]

I also found a lot of diamonds, ruby, uranite, and chelicates

[edgy shadow]

How do i do that black strip again?

/spoiler?

[wind stirrup]

|| <-- this on each side

[edgy shadow]

Ah

[wind stirrup]

||spoiler||

[edgy shadow]

Well was the ||skeleton|| near the ||caves or ice worm place?||

[wind stirrup]

Idk where the ice worm place is

But it was marked as a beacon for me

[edgy shadow]

Ah ya got ||Al-An||

[wind stirrup]

||specifically, it was below the place of the lily pads||

[edgy shadow]

||well ya got the easiest of the three.||

[wind stirrup]

||about 600m below||

I've been looking for more places to go but i feel like ive explored the whole map

[edgy shadow]

Wait til ya gotta go ||1500 meters or so for the organs||

[wind stirrup]

Isn't it like ||1100? Thats the deepest the prawn can go||

[edgy shadow]

Try looking at the ||glacial bay past the bridge, yer gunna need a snowfox||

[edgy shadow]

Maybe

[wind stirrup]

Omg i forgot about that bridge

I gotta figure out how to cross it though

[edgy shadow]

||think thats where ya find the tissue||

[edgy shadow]

A ||canister of hydrologic fluid||

[wind stirrup]

I see

I also was told about ||a volcano||, i have not seen any evidence of this yet besides the ||expected random heat vents||

[stray breach]

Hey so I found a bug with the seatruck dock but I for some reason cannot report it to the bug report bot?

[edgy shadow]

What is this bug?

[wind stirrup]

I also really want the ||seatruck horsepower upgrade|| because holy is it slow asf with even half the modules

[edgy shadow]

||afterburners? That increases speed||

[wind stirrup]

Dunno what those are

Ill find it out sooner or later

[stray breach]

It requires set-up I accidentally pulled off. If the seatruck dock is directly connected to a multipurpose room or large room and you place a poster in the connecting hallway, the posters will begin floating in water if the seatruck docking area is deconstructed.

[edgy shadow]

Its another ||upgrade for the seatruck|| it provides ||a short burst of speed at the cost of some electricity||

[edgy shadow]

Odd

[wind stirrup]

Does seatruck have any mobile power source, so i dont have to bring a million power cells?

[stray breach]

For some reason the game doesn't do a check for objects in the seatruck dock

[edgy shadow]

Unfortunately the ||cyclops doesnt exist so you'll prolly need some power cells||

[edgy shadow]

Interesting

[wind stirrup]

Alr maybe i can make up some ||ion power cells|| and see if those work better
On the topic of those, do they get charged as a ||normal power cell|| would? And do they have benefits such as longer battery?

[magic cliff]

Garlic Bread#7332 has been warned

Reason: Too many spoiler tags

[edgy shadow]

Ah

Well i have no clue

[stray breach]

Just spoiler tag the entire message.

[edgy shadow]

Good plan

||I have no clue they may but they also might not even fit in the Seatruck. I do know they were originally used to power the neptune so id assume they're more powerful, but they might not even charge the same way||

[eternal garnet]

They have 5x capacity, and I think probably take longer to charge

[storm imp]

yeah, and you charge them the same as normal cells

[edgy shadow]

Chat wanna talk about creature eggs?

I know where most of them are

[viscid idol]

Is there a way to renew Reactor rods?

[west mountain]

No, you have to craft new ones and dispose the old ones in the nuclear waste container, that is a pitty.

[gleaming linden]

Can i move seatruck modules with prawn suit propulsion Cannon?

[west mountain]

Try it and tell us, it seems you are about to do it, right?

[gleaming linden]

Ok

[west mountain]

What have you done???

[gleaming linden]

Shadow leviathan ate my seatruck

[pure pike]

Un lucky I sacrificed my sea moth to kill a reaper

[west mountain]

Great, but wrong chat

[ancient crag]

Am i wrong for putting small Penguins in a bio reactor?

That electricity aint free

[west mountain]

This has been discussed countless times, so its getting old by now. Throw in whatever you feel like. Its a computer game, not real life.

[grave veldt]

Is that efficient

[ancient crag]

Probablly not

[balmy saddle]

i remember when i spawned seamoth but its has been with no textures , just white

[ancient crag]

Can someone help me how to save pictures that i take from subnautica?

[grave veldt]

My little brother started crying once because I accidentally crushed a pengling with the prawn suit lol

[ancient crag]

I do that daily

[steel stream]

And it happens even more easily with seatruck as it does quite a bit of damage on collisions...

[west mountain]

The most efficient bio fuels are: Kelp Root Pustules with 700 and arctic peeper with 350. From indoor plants its the small marble melon with 280 and preston fruit with 210. I use preston fruit because you can also harvest the leaves for spicy fruit salad. The complete list can be found here: https://subnautica.fandom.com/wiki/Bioreactor_(Below_Zero)

[ancient crag]

I use the pepper thingy

[west mountain]

Yes, also. Easy to harvest and quick to refill. Again from an efficiency point of view, if you fill the reactor with 16 preston fruits you get 3360 energy out of it. Where as with fevered pepper plants you only get 2800. With marble melon you would get 4480 and with arctic peeper a full 5600.

[nova walrus]

Couid anyone tell me which direction to go to look for the vehicle bay

[ancient crag]

Can someone give me a hint if the ||organs of the architect|| are in the ||red crystal cave or the blue crystal cave?||

[ancient crag]

ok dont need it anymore i found it

[nova walrus]

There are things screaming at me, its dark, i have no idea where i am

[ancient crag]

Is the ||shadow leviathan|| posibble to be killed?

Im so hyped.I just ||constructed al-an||

He is looking fresh

[west mountain]

Yes, you can kill it and it will not respawn.

[west mountain]

Probabely should go back to your drop pod then.

[west mountain]

Mobile vehicle bay fragments are all around your drop pod, in the seamonkey nests in the arctic kelp caves around your drop pod and in twisty bridges. So you should find pieces of it now and then when swimming around and exploring.

[amber sinew]

Yep

I killed one

[ancient crag]

Is it hard?

[nova walrus]

yup, found one

[west mountain]

two more to go

[west mountain]

Yes and no, give it a try

[nova walrus]

Blueprint made!

[west mountain]

Guess you are going for the seatruck now, do you?

[nova walrus]

yeah

i died in the kelp caves and dropped all my minerals before i lost them

[ancient crag]

1 killed !

[nova walrus]

Cant find the cave..

[ancient crag]

Bro just sat there and took it

both got beat up to death

time to make the ||crystal cave|| a safe place!

3rd one down

[ancient crag]

Just completed the game and it was beautiful. Wish there were more games from the world of SUBNAUTICA

[indigo moth]

They’re on their way

[ancient crag]

Wait there is going to be another game?

[indigo moth]

Yes

It’s in development

[west mountain]

Good advice

[true lintel]

i just want some kyanite

[indigo moth]

[west mountain]

Excellent and nickle too

[true lintel]

thinking of puttign a base there too for funni

[true lintel]

found some in lily pad area

i think you only need 5 for upgrades (not including the prawn jump i got already)

[naive lotus]

aint nobody tell me there's a lobster at purple vents?

[west mountain]

There is alobster at purple vents

[wind stirrup]

Idek where to find nickel or kyanite, i feel like ive got the whole map explored

[wind stirrup]

Shrimp*

[indigo moth]

I’m a shrimp

[west mountain]

Nickle is in lilypad crevices, deep lilypad cave and ||crystal cavern||

[naive lotus]

every feesh roaring like they're a leviathan

[wind stirrup]

Oversized shrimp leviathan

[west mountain]

Kyanite is only in ||crystal cavern||

[indigo moth]

I’m a shrimp

[indigo moth]

Not anymore my grandma mined it all up like a selfish hog

She ate it all

[wind stirrup]

ACTUALLY its kinda annoying when im trying to kill a chelicerate and it keeps running

[west mountain]

Yes, so just let it be and give it a zap now and then

[naive lotus]

you what now?

[wind stirrup]

Why would i do that

I named my prawn "real steel" for a reason

[indigo moth]

Punch, drill, grapple

[west mountain]

You are the intruder, they live here peacefully 🙂

[wind stirrup]

Even if that were true, which its not, i still wanna kill it

[indigo moth]

Somebody else finally thinks like I do

[wind stirrup]

Big fish = i gotta kill it eventually

[indigo moth]

Aggressive Leviathan = Creature That Need Euthanasia

[wind stirrup]

I'll be scared at first but once i have my boxing suit im good

Prawn better be in subnautica 3

[indigo moth]

Yes

[west mountain]

Go and kill the ||ice worm||

[indigo moth]

My buddy bob isn’t being left behind

[wind stirrup]

1. Idk where that is
2. Its unkillable i saw someone say

[indigo moth]

I don’t think ||ice worm|| is killable

How disappointing

[west mountain]

And that stops you two from trying?

[indigo moth]

I wanted to kill it when I get this game

[indigo moth]

Yes because it’s not possible so there’s no reason to try

It’ll just be stupid

[west mountain]

Then kill the ghost checlicerates

[wind stirrup]

Lets say you have to try and kill godzilla with only a feather, would you try?

[indigo moth]

What’s a ghost chelelyelegekelate

[wind stirrup]

Probably the chelicerates of the void

Replacement for ghost leviathans

[indigo moth]

Do they look differnet

[wind stirrup]

Idk

[indigo moth]

Different*

How do you guys remember how to spell chilereleieleeleirlate?

[west mountain]

They are about twice the size

[indigo moth]

I can never get it right

Chueldieleieate

[west mountain]

Cheli

[indigo moth]

Chelicerate

[wind stirrup]

Chelicerate

It took me a while too

[indigo moth]

Oh that’s actually super easy ngl

How do you pronounce it

[west mountain]

As you write it

[indigo moth]

I have been saying Chill-Kill-Er-Lit

Chell-Lis-Er-Rit?

[wind stirrup]

Chill-liss-er-it

[indigo moth]

Well I like chillkillerlit better

[wind stirrup]

Me too

Im calling it chillkillerlit now

[indigo moth]

I’ve been calling it that for a while now so it’s now it’s new name

[nova walrus]

Is below zero shorter than the first?

[clever crow]

feels so for sure. map is smaller

[west mountain]

Depends, its a bit shorter but the game does not require you to persue all tasks. So you can get out of it really quick without achieving the main objectives. So stay true to your quest and do all tasks.

[west mountain]

Map is smaller but the biomes are so much richer and more elaborate than SN imho. So its a pleasure to make your way throuth all the different areas and explore every single detail.

[west mountain]

Also very important, the game does not rush you in any way. You can take your time to explore everything in great detail and that is actually what the game wants you to do.

[edgy shadow]

What were y'all's thoughts on the glacial spires?

[west mountain]

Glacial basin or arctic spires, both are amazing places

[clever crow]

agreed.

[edgy shadow]

I need to look rq

[edgy shadow]

Arctic spires

[west mountain]

Yes, over the bridge

[edgy shadow]

Mhm

[west mountain]

Or what is your question?

[edgy shadow]

Whats yer opinion when ya first arrived there

[west mountain]

Stunningly beautiful but also proceed with caution The weather is a shame.

[edgy shadow]

Indeed

[west mountain]

And its a bit of a maze

[edgy shadow]

Mostly the proceed with caution

Wanna know an interesting fact about the ||ice worms||?

[west mountain]

Always

[edgy shadow]

They are the only creature that cannot be scanned while living

[west mountain]

True, and also they cannot be ||killed||

[clever crow]

i don't like the worms personally. i like the game for being ocean exploration (+some mystery) adventure, not kaiju fan service.

[edgy shadow]

Indeed true

[west mountain]

I wanted the game so badly because of the ice worm and the snow fox

[clever crow]

like those worms would not be a thing realistically

[edgy shadow]

I attempted to stay away from the ice worms

[clever crow]

my ion battery snow fox clipped through the ground💀

[edgy shadow]

But the ||architect skeleton|| is located there

[west mountain]

The reason is that I watched this video before I bought the game and I absolutely wanted to see that: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vM1wdwN9ELc

[edgy shadow]

Holy crap that is epic

[west mountain]

That guy is epic, he has other dioramas from BZ and SN

[clever crow]

worms have cool designs, but that's it for me

[edgy shadow]

Ill check him out

[west mountain]

You can simply ignore it. Dont even have to look at it. But I love the animation when he is doing his display in front of you

[edgy shadow]

I casually have the below zero map saved if yall wanna see it

[clever crow]

i like looking at it, but i'm a little bit of biology 🤓 , so their concept ruin the immersion.
even sea dragon and the spoiler leviathan were doing same thing for me in the original

i like both games anyway.

[edgy shadow]

Both games are good anyways

[nova walrus]

Shouid i investigate this moulin iceberg?

[west mountain]

What is that?

[clever crow]

bz leviathans are no chill tho. agressive af, will attack 100%. i like sn ai more

[nova walrus]

moulin, holey iceberg

[edgy shadow]

As shown by Chelicerates and the shadow

[west mountain]

If you found it, why not

[paper wyvern]

I agree but disagree. But I can't figure out a way to word it.

[nova walrus]

Yeah, why not, kinda boring though, my seaglide just shows a small maze

[clever crow]

glow whales are love.

[west mountain]

And bring the ||llaser cutter||

[paper wyvern]

I always turn off the seaglide radar. it takes up way too much of the screen.

[west mountain]

Yes, until there is a reason to turn it on, like now.

[paper wyvern]

True.

But I hate how it's on by default. Should be off by default.

[edgy shadow]

Yea

[paper wyvern]

Same with the light.

[nova walrus]

ughhh, i saw a small hole at the radar tower with diamonds inside, too small for me to fit in

[edgy shadow]

Battery drainer

[paper wyvern]

Speaking of, does the light take energy from the battery?

[west mountain]

It should be the same you left it last time.

[nova walrus]

ill see if the other alterra facilities have anything

[west mountain]

Dont think so, but once you have the swim charge fins its an obsolete question

[paper wyvern]

I never use swim charge fins

[edgy shadow]

Pretty sure it does

[paper wyvern]

I prefer faster swim speed with the ultraglides

[west mountain]

You need a little buddy to help with that.

[nova walrus]

Figured

maybe sams robot penguin can help, so ill go find how to make it

[west mountain]

I prefer not to worry anymore about batteries. Infinite seaglide time 🙂

[west mountain]

Dont forget to also make the ||remote control|| 🙂

[lime grove]

wait ultraglide fins are in bz?

[west mountain]

No

[paper wyvern]

I don't think they are

Either way, I haven't bothered building swimcharge fins

[west mountain]

First thing I do, but thats personal preference

[paper wyvern]

I respect it

[edgy shadow]

The robot penguin is require for an ||achievement, specifically the one for curing the frozen leviathan of the kharaa||

[west mountain]

I built everything in the game and now I have a lovely showroom

[edgy shadow]

Epik

[paper wyvern]

...wow

Never thought to do that. Nor do I understand the purpose. But you do you.

[west mountain]

That is what you do when you have done everything in BZ. Base building and decoration to the max

[edgy shadow]

You have every achievement?

[west mountain]

Yes, many times

[paper wyvern]

Achievements are all unlocked as you beat the game normally

[edgy shadow]

Impressive

[edgy shadow]

Not all of em

[paper wyvern]

It's stupidly easy

Yeah all but 1

[west mountain]

No, you have to do quests that are not required to beat the game, whatever beating the game means then. If you speedrun the game you will not get every achievement

[west mountain]

At least 2 or more. ||curing the frozen levi and riding the snowfox for example||

[paper wyvern]

Ah

Didn't think about that second one

[west mountain]

also ||cold suit, juke box, the entire Maida story|| are not required to bail out of the game prematurely

[edgy shadow]

I was about to ask dont ya need the second one to finish the game?

Then i remembered a certain item ||<The Thumper||

[west mountain]

No, you dont have to persue any of Sams story task to get out, but that is not really beating the game. it is ending it prematurely.

[paper wyvern]

Agreed. I'm upset I accidentally did this in my first run.

[edgy shadow]

Not the first one ||the riding the snowfox||

[paper wyvern]

There's absolutely no direction for that. It's based on luck.

[west mountain]

So are many other players. It should have been prevented.

[nova walrus]

uh oh.. im surrounded by weird jellies

[west mountain]

In the south or in the west

[edgy shadow]

Eye-jellies?

[nova walrus]

the west

[west mountain]

Eye-jellies

[nova walrus]

im looking for the alterra base

[west mountain]

Phi?

[nova walrus]

theyre funky.

[edgy shadow]

Hold on we can disect this better

[west mountain]

They cause damage to your seatruck, so be careful where you park it

[nova walrus]

alrighty

spoiler !

[edgy shadow]

Right now i gotta remember how to do that

/spolier aint it?

[paper wyvern]

You just click the spoiler checkbox when you upload it

[west mountain]

But once you uploaded an image without spoiler tag, how do you mark it afterwards, I have not yet found a way to do it afterwards.

[paper wyvern]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[edgy shadow]

Im just tryna figure out how to upload it with a spoiler warnin

Haven't done this for a while

[west mountain]

Over the picture there are icons that you can click. The one with the eye or so

[edgy shadow]

Ah

[paper wyvern]

Also I thought hover zone 3 was removed

[edgy shadow]

Figured it out! Finally

[paper wyvern]

Unless that's the ||path to end game||

[edgy shadow]

It may be out of date

[paper wyvern]

And frozen river is the ||one research base||

[edgy shadow]

As you can see ||crystal caverns isnt located||

[paper wyvern]

Well yeah it's under the sauce

[edgy shadow]

"thats not enough cheese!"

[paper wyvern]

Lol

[edgy shadow]

Indeed

[paper wyvern]

Glad you got that reference

[edgy shadow]

Who couldn't?

[west mountain]

Thats the map the shows all secrets, so dont klick on it OK: ||https://mapgenie.io/subnautica-below-zero/maps/world||

[edgy shadow]

Ill save this for later

Anyways shall we get back to the original discussion?

[paper wyvern]

Wow

That's a great map, thanks for that.

[west mountain]

Which was?

[edgy shadow]

The ||phi||

[west mountain]

Sure go there

[edgy shadow]

Im tryna remember whether or not thats where ya find the ||frozen leviathan||

[west mountain]

Its in the west

[edgy shadow]

If so ive marked it on a creative world

[west mountain]

Check the alterra facilities map from Delta island

[edgy shadow]

Wait theres a map there?

[west mountain]

Dont tell me you did not scan it.

[edgy shadow]

I used the station itself as a landmark

[west mountain]

its in the ||first room on the wall||. it is essential for the game

[edgy shadow]

Well thats why i cant beat it

I genuinely never knew about that.

[west mountain]

And the ||glacial basin map in phi robotics||? Did you get that one?

[edgy shadow]

Nope.

[west mountain]

But you have been in phi before or you are on the way now?

[edgy shadow]

Ill do it later but thanks for the tips

And no i dpnt think so

[west mountain]

wow, so much more story ahead of you.

[edgy shadow]

I have an hour on my freedom world

Because of the shark things

[west mountain]

You do it again in survival or you stay in freedom?

[edgy shadow]

Stay in freedom

Im preparing for completion of the game via different creatives

Also i cannot tell you how many times ive died of thirst in survival

Anyways ill be back later but i gtg for now

[naive lotus]

meet Mint, I have no idea how he get into my bag, but he refuse to leave

[west mountain]

You probabely pick it up by accident when you were collecting resource

[granite solstice]

my game gets stuck on the warning screen, i haven't had this problem before, how do i fix it?

[eternal garnet]

remove, or update mods

especially Qmodloader

[granite solstice]

i never installed any

[eternal garnet]

Do you know which CPU you have?

[granite solstice]

Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-9300H CPU @ 2.40GHz

i ran the game fine before

[eternal garnet]

That only leaves mods as a possible cause

in the game folder, is there a folder bepinex?

[granite solstice]

no

[true pagoda]

Is the picture frame at outpost zero scannable? I cant seem to

[eternal garnet]

it is, if you don't have it already

[true pagoda]

I dont but i cant scan it for some reason

[eternal garnet]

any QMods folder?

[granite solstice]

also no

[eternal garnet]

Let's try to remove where mods can hide, then verify game files after. OK?

The verify might fix it, but this is safer

[edgy shadow]

Ive returned

Should i go and finally find ||Al-An|| in my BZ freedom world?

[next current]

I believe it's not. I always go to Zero before Phi and I can never seem to scan it.

[edgy shadow]

Hey can i quickly ask ya sum?

[next current]

Sure.

[edgy shadow]

Should I get ||Al-an|| for my freedom world? Im still in early phases and have only a seaglide

[next current]

Yeah, this is optimal since ||Sea Monkeys will stop stealing from you.||

[edgy shadow]

Interesting

Ill keep that in mind

[next current]

What equipment do you have?

Like what air tank.

[edgy shadow]

Lemme check quickly

I think i have the first one you craft

"Standard O2"

[clever crow]

there are so many oxygen plants that i go there almost straight away

[edgy shadow]

I also casually have ||2 arctic ray eggs||

[next current]

Arctic Ray be kinda cool tho.

[edgy shadow]

Indeed

[clever crow]

rock grub is the coolest.

[edgy shadow]

But i havent even made the ||habitat builder||

[next current]

Agreed.

[edgy shadow]

I casually own the ||mineral detector before the habitat builder||

[next current]

Same.

[edgy shadow]

Im tryna decide bc my scared self dont wanna go deal with the death shark things

Ima do it

Wish me luck

[next current]

Good luck!

[edgy shadow]

I didnt even had to delta

Ima head there and quickly go get Al-an after

Got dat classic marguiriet message

I cant do it

Fear bested me

Ive failed

[next current]

🫂 There there, bud. You can get them next time.

[paper wyvern]

Take that to off topic

[edgy shadow]

Or memes

[storm imp]

bring this to #memes-and-media
or just out of this server. that'd be better tbh.

[rustic granite]

anyone want to call im terrified

[edgy shadow]

Whatcha terrified of?

[rustic granite]

EVERYTHING

SOUNDS MY HAND

[edgy shadow]

In BZ or in general?

[rustic granite]

bz

[edgy shadow]

Smae.

[rustic granite]

wanna call

so we not scared

[edgy shadow]

Sure itll help me get Al-an

[edgy shadow]

Guys i did it

I got Al-An

[west mountain]

Excellent so now the game begins

[edgy shadow]

Indeed

[west mountain]

Whats next

[edgy shadow]

Finding silver for a wiring kit

[west mountain]

But never forget why you came to 4546B in the first place. That is more important than AlAn

[pliant jetty]

Building a sick cave base

[edgy shadow]

Curing the Kharaa bacterium

[pliant jetty]

What no lol

Gorge4life

[west mountain]

To find out everything about your sister Sam

[west mountain]

Silver is in arctic seamonkey caves and everywhere in thermal spires and around delta island. Also in twisty bridges.

[edgy shadow]

I do not wanna head back to the coral bridge caverns

[west mountain]

Do you have rebreather and large o2 tank?

[edgy shadow]

Standard O2 and no rebreather

[pliant jetty]

That's gonna need fixing

[west mountain]

So back to twisty bridges

[edgy shadow]

Noooo

[west mountain]

You are looking for a crane plattform and a seatube

[edgy shadow]

Been to the seatube

And saw the crane platform

[west mountain]

There are databoxes with blueprints

You have to scan and collect stuff

[edgy shadow]

I need a mineral detector or sum?

[west mountain]

No no need

You have a scanner right

[edgy shadow]

Mhm

[west mountain]

Yes you have a scanner and you scan everythimg you come accross, right?

[edgy shadow]

Mhm

[next current]

I would hope so.

[edgy shadow]

Where do i find table correl besides the twisty bridges

[storm imp]

lilypads according to the wiki

[edgy shadow]

Anywhere else?

[eternal garnet]

Can't think of another place

[edgy shadow]

Darn

[storm imp]

doesn't seem like it. https://subnautica.fandom.com/wiki/Table_Coral_(Below_Zero)

[west mountain]

No, twisty or lilypads

[edgy shadow]

Darn

Well in the twistys i go

[west mountain]

You will go there a lot

[edgy shadow]

Seamonkeys being chads

Bro gave me a table coral

[eternal garnet]

Not entirely random. Got a recipe with coral pinned?

[edgy shadow]

Mhm computer chip

[edgy shadow]

After Ive gotten silver

No longer frightened of the Twisty Bridges

[latent rain]

is subnautica below zero the same planet as the first game?

[west mountain]

Yes 4546B

[latent rain]

Cool

[eternal garnet]

yes, BZ happens 2 years later

[lapis compass]

Where can I find spiral plant clippings?

[clever crow]

inside a big big jelly or in deep purple vents

[lapis compass]

How do I find the big jelly

[clever crow]

go south from delta island maybe? it's still pretty deep like 300ish m if i remember correctly

[lapis compass]

Is there anything dangerous around it

Or on the way

[clever crow]

ye)

[lapis compass]

Like what

[clever crow]

the screeching lobster

[lapis compass]

Is that actually its name

[mint badger]

Yes

[clever crow]

canon.

[lapis compass]

Chelicerate?

[clever crow]

yes

[lapis compass]

Oh fs

I saw one of them in purple vents it jump scared me 😭

[clever crow]

if you don't park next to it - you should be fine

[clever crow]

keep distance

[lapis compass]

If I see it in time I’ll try

What about the other place

Deep purple vents where’s that

[clever crow]

there's something to keep chelys off near by the jelly, but you can drown if you don't have depth upgrades and don't know where it is

[lapis compass]

I have 300m

[clever crow]

i think you will definitely need to leave your truck and do free diving

[lapis compass]

What about deep purple vents

[west mountain]

300m is just enough for the giant vent gardens. And you definitely want to see it

[clever crow]

the spiral plants i saw there are rare and i don't remember the exact location, but i think there's also a cheli nearby. but once u pass it - there are no predators

[lapis compass]

What’s there

Like anything dangerous

[lapis compass]

Hm ok

[clever crow]

that's the tree spires biome. it's my favorite, really pretty

[west mountain]

As already mentiond you go south from delta island dock and follow the terrain down into tree spires until you see it. And you will see it for sure.

[lapis compass]

Ok ty

[west mountain]

Chelicarate

But thats just how it is

[lapis compass]

Is the big jelly in vent garden?

[lapis compass]

Cant be too easy

[clever crow]

yes)))))))))))

[lapis compass]

Ok ty

[west mountain]

No the big jelly is called vemt garden and its in tree spires biome

[lapis compass]

Ohhh right I see now

[clever crow]

spoiler guy.

[west mountain]

Why its not late game its not end game why?

Its just naming things its not story related its nothing

[clever crow]

because person seemed to not know who's vent garden and up what they must swim

[lapis compass]

I just found a juvenile vent garden right above mercury 2 rocket damn

[clever crow]

cuties

[lapis compass]

They look so cool

[clever crow]

big ones are west from mercury

[lapis compass]

Cool ty

Are all 3 parallel processing unit fragments in mercury

[west mountain]

Yes

[lapis compass]

Damn I only found 2

I’ll look for the other now then

[west mountain]

But there is ||more than one mercury 2 wreck||

[lapis compass]

Oh

So the third will be in the other wreck

Ty

This is the biome right

[west mountain]

Yes that is tree spires

[lapis compass]

Ty

Hopefully I don’t get eaten by a screaming lobster

[west mountain]

He will be there

[lapis compass]

NOO

He’s right infront of where I was going

Oh no

Can he see or only hear or what

[west mountain]

You will find out

[lapis compass]

😭😭😭

He swam in my direction then a whale came and he swam off

The whale is peaceful I’m guessing

[west mountain]

Definitely you want to have a closer look at the glow whales. You can interact with them

[lapis compass]

Ohh ye u can ride them I remember

I found the big jelly he’s cool man

[west mountain]

Great now you have to find ||a way in||

[lapis compass]

I just did

NOOO

I’m so dead

The screaming shrimp knows I’m in here

He’s just waiting for me

[west mountain]

I am sure you carry health kits and a repair tool on you

[lapis compass]

A repair tool yes but med kits no

Is there a way I can lose the shrimp

Well I just drowned

I didn’t see the spiral plant clippings in the jelly

[west mountain]

You have to cut them off with the knife

[lapis compass]

I’ll check again

Nah man

I got loads of spiral clippings then died cuz I was too scared to leave the jelly 😭😭

Screaming shrimp is staring me down man

[west mountain]

That is not a good strategy

[mellow epoch]

How the hell can i find glacial basin easily , i cant find it -_-

[west mountain]

You have to go to phi robotics and scan ||the map on the wall||

[mellow epoch]

i did , but i have the capacity of a blind person with a map

[west mountain]

You want a tutorial video?

[mellow epoch]

more like just pass the second big squid or something

[west mountain]

Well thats like watching the video and stop when you dont want to see more.

[mellow epoch]

is it near the vent gardens?

[west mountain]

You talk about glacial basin right?

[mellow epoch]

ye

[west mountain]

That is on land

[mellow epoch]

I know but am i near it or its like oposite lol

[west mountain]

You start from phi dock in the north west. Vent garden is way down south.

Check the alterra facilities map. You have to go to phi robotics and the entire land area south and west of phi is called glacial basin

[mellow epoch]

so the purple icon?

[west mountain]

No the green in the west

[mellow epoch]

so from the dock i head west

[west mountain]

West-North west you go to the dock. And the go to phi on land

[mellow epoch]

kk , i miss my cyclope at least i could grow plans ahah

[west mountain]

West north west. West with a bit north

[mellow epoch]

got it , finally

with 21% power , jeeeez lol

[tacit thorn]

Random question:
Is there a base planning tool?
Like - I want to build 2 large rooms, 2 multirooms, 20 foundations and reactor, how many mats should I pack up - kind

[west mountain]

Dont know but an excel sheet would do the job just fine

[tacit thorn]

It would, hoping there is an existing solution I don't have to write myself

[true lintel]

HELP

please

i just want kyanite

[west mountain]

I hope you have the seatruck perimeter defense module installed

[true lintel]

well lets just say i might be a tad bit uprepared

[west mountain]

Then grab your kyanite and go out

[tacit thorn]

[shhh, what is on that tiny image?]

[lime grove]

water

[mellow epoch]

that picture have only friendly in it 😄

[true lintel]

halfway to all of the kyanite required for 1 of everything

probably dont need to the get final 3 though for now

[lapis compass]

Is the seatruck dock any good

[true lintel]

yea its pretty cool

[lapis compass]

Ok ty

[true lintel]

you dont need to leave it floating near your base and swap power cells

[frank token]

Pp

[true lintel]

i just pressed F1 and it showed up

[mellow epoch]

Its the console panel

[lime grove]

its a tool that helps a lot

[true lintel]

oops forgot to spoiler something

[lime grove]

its not anything cheat-related

[true lintel]

ok

is it kinda like the F3 menu in minecraft?

[lime grove]

it gives your coordinates and the biome you're in

[mellow epoch]

"you lost some belonings" literally took half of my inventory -_-

[broken badge]

That’s why you save your game often

[lime grove]

or enter bases often

[broken badge]

I’m not always near a base, but I sure do save about every 10 minutes, more if I’m doing important or risky things

[mellow epoch]

didnt realize how fast i could get frozen -_-

[true lintel]

if i go into a powerless base does the game still save?

[broken badge]

There is no autosave. Not sure about securing inventory

[true lintel]

oh i meant my inventory

oops

[west mountain]

You need a cold suit, or the snow fox that has a heated seat, or the prawn suit.

[mellow epoch]

fudge the snowfox , the only i find with that is death

[west mountain]

I love it. I do all my exploration with it and it is an achievment.

[mellow epoch]

Did they ever put back the sample piece?

[west mountain]

What is that?

[mellow epoch]

At the frozen leviathan

[west mountain]

The ||antidote|| is in the game

[true lintel]

moments before disaster

[mellow epoch]

You will be fine , he just want a hug 😄

[lapis compass]

How tf do u get there

[lunar flame]

After kelp biome there is a bioma with almost nothing, i think is here you enter the cave

[short thicket]

Search deeper there will be green Signals leadkng to there

[lapis compass]

Ok ty

Is there anything dangerous in that biome

[short thicket]

Uh

Kind of?

Theres an creature thats small but makes a bit damage

Just bring a med and youll be safe

[lapis compass]

I mean like any big creatures

Like a leviathan or anything

[lunar flame]

No

[lapis compass]

Ok ty

What does the cave look like I’m in one rn with like green twisted bridges

Is this it

[short thicket]

No

You are a bit early for that lol

[lapis compass]

Oops

Man I can’t find the cave entrance

[short thicket]

You cant miss it

Go deep until you see a cave leading there until there are green lights

[lapis compass]

Is it like proper into the biome with nothing in

Or near the start of it

[mellow epoch]

The ||antidote ||is not on worm side ye?

[lapis compass]

Wait I’ve already done this 💀💀💀

Why’s it still pinged on the map

[short thicket]

You got the cube

[short thicket]

You need to unping it

[lapis compass]

||the alien in my head||

If that’s it then yes

[tacit thorn]

Does water desalinator machine suffer from depth penalty multiplier? Or its flat -2 on any depth?

[next current]

If it's in a base piece that's above the water, then it'll make water at a much slower pace.

[tacit thorn]

No, I'm asking, if I add one at 500m below, is it still -2 to hull or more like -5?

[short thicket]

Yes

[next current]

The depth in the ocean has no effect on water/salt production.

[tacit thorn]

I don't care about production.
If my base has 3 hull integrity left. Is at 500m deep in the ocean. And I add desalinator - will my base explode or not?

[next current]

No...?

[molten shard]

i have a seatruck, should i go to the lilypad things?

[tacit thorn]

You might want a mk1 depth upgrade

[molten shard]

o

[molten shard]

do i need anything for the upgrade ?

[next current]

Plasteel and Enameled Glass.

[molten shard]

i just saw this

o

[wind stirrup]

When the game told me there were aggressive creatures in the ice, i didn't think that meant my prawn suit would crumble at my feet suddenly

[molten shard]

theres a big thing that looks like a leviathan

near the smokers

what do i do

[tacit thorn]

Avoid, or kill it. There is no other option.

[molten shard]

how do i avoid it?

[charred creek]

me waiting with my money for subnautica 3 👁️ 🫦 👁️

[tacit thorn]

well, don't go near 🤣

[molten shard]

o

[charred creek]

they hardly do anything

ignore them

[molten shard]

so the thing wont kill my seatruck right?

[charred creek]

it will damage it but its easy to avoid

[molten shard]

ok

THERES SO MANY

what is that big thing???

[next current]

Whale. :)

[molten shard]

im at the pilots last known thing and i dont see the base that im supposed to find

also r those squid sharks?

[charred creek]

they r

[molten shard]

o

but where is the base that i need to find

[charred creek]

tbh

worth searchign yt vid

[tacit thorn]

Go down from the pilot last position. Look for artificial lights and follow them

[molten shard]

ok

hmm

[tacit thorn]

Does moonpool antenna always show the correct docking direction? Eg when you dock prawn the antenna is behind you.

[indigo moth]

Idk

Doesn’t really matter tho cuz it just turns you around

[molten shard]

do i go down?

[tacit thorn]

that is eaxcly why I'm asking. I want to build my moonpool facing the 'correct direction' since rotating is broken.

[tacit thorn]

yes, down and down, look for lights

[rustic granite]

hello can anyone get on a call with me so im not scared and for tips

[molten shard]

this light?

[rustic granite]

yes follow the lights

will anyone help me with my game

[tacit thorn]

if you are looking for pilot, follow the humanmade lights. Might need going back the way you came. It was pretty hard to find the first time

[wind stirrup]

ive been in the ice worm place for like an hour what am i supposed to be looking for

[rustic granite]

can some one call with me i get scared and i need tips

[indigo moth]

My grandma

She’s lost

[wind stirrup]

all im finding is death from below i apologize

seriously though i cant find anything

[lapis compass]

Koppa mine is sick

[tacit thorn]

Created a direction-cheatsheet for BZ and broken moonpool/ladder/observatory rotations if anyone wants.
If you put down a foundation as pictured, the moonpool will always dock vehicles in direction of arrow, and the corridor ladders will be on bold side of provided squares. Observatory seems bugged - it will reset to pictured direction regardles of how you 'rotated' it, and will not connect to command/scanner automatically (it connects to other buildables). Can be connected if you build observatory first, then comm/scan room, but only if they are built from the marked side of observatory.

Does anyone know why my below zero is glitching? Used to not be like this. Is it the update?

[tacit thorn]

Could be drivers. Could also be hardware issue - it only does it in this one game?

moving diagonally with prawn is like twice as fast tf

[tacit thorn]

ah, the good old source engine bug.

[wind stirrup]

U talking about what i said?

So the pixilation is the gamma I toggle Ed because my whole screen goes white or black

It happens so often

It wasn’t like that before

But I started playing again for the first time in a few months and now it’s silly on me

[tacit thorn]

yes. There is a famous half-life bug where you could map multiple keys to same direction and move several times faster. I think it was HF.
So, some game developers don't get the direction vector and just do 'key pressed = add movement', which results in faster movement diagonally because you are moving sqrt(2) of regular speed as a result.

Might still be drivers.
If you are on steam/epic, the first troubleshooting is usually 'verify files' because steam sometimes gets the packs wrong.

[primal sky]

Yeah I’m on steam

Okay thanks I’ll check that out

[tacit thorn]

You can also try resetting the video settings in case its something weird with configuration.
But might be video card drivers. Windows just loves replacing them with broken ones.

[primal sky]

Steam verified integrity

I tired that before :/

Hmm

I’m mac not windows

Do you know if there’s a way I can go back to the old version before the update?

[wind stirrup]

im trying to find deeper areas and found this guy

ah-

[tacit thorn]

Don't worry, he/she is confirmed dead.

[wind stirrup]

I know ive explored

I found a thing that says it needs smth to operate

And im wondering if thats important or could i just leave it

Some computers with low end specs/old hardware are now not compatible with running the 2.0 update. So there was made a “legacy” branch available to use for people in these sort of edge cases. I don’t know if that’s what is happening to you, but if so, see if you can change to the legacy branch, it might work for you

I don’t play on PC unfortunately so I don’t know exactly how to change versions/branches

[wind stirrup]

why do they do this

This thing is so scary holy
