imo prawn in subzero is nerfed
doesn't feel as badass
and you lose jump jet thrust by moving forward which sucks
Like they say there is always are bigger fish than you
Must there?
It's like the reaper skeletons in sb1
Oh my god there's a || arctic dragon ||
Bro I compressed all my items
This is still not fitting on my seatruck
Time for a yard sale.
I made two storage modules
Only two? That’s like a bare minimum for me starting out.
Bro the speeds gonna be so bad
I could add two extra lockers to prawn
where do i find moonpool fragments
You don't: you can either scan a moonpool in ||marguerit's base|| or find databox in ||koppa mining site||. You will also unlock seatruck dock blueprint at the same time.
Sorry for taking so long to get back. The issue is still persisting.
The issue was fixed in DM.
@coral siren in BZ we see PDAs without emergency mode
the reason why there no blueprints is that its XenoWorx and they haddnt gotten the new alterra PDAs yet after they bought most shares
and we have proof of it not beeing in emergency mode
I think the real reason is that Robin was not prepared and was just in a rush to get onto the planet
Robins PDA has basicly Mails and stuff from people
It's also got infinite power
she was a Xeno researcher for XenoWorx and they only had basic blueprints in their PDAs
well they diddnt buy the blueprint license from alterra
Robin is using an outdated PDA on purpose, because she doesn't trust Alterra. Xenoworx uses Alterra PDAs now.
the mail she got says one of theres (Lina) would be in touch with them to exchange old gen XenoWorks PDA for new Alterra ones
but we dont know when that was send, might aswell have been a few days before
I think it was part of Alterra's purchase of the company
Would make sense to have a homogenous work culture in your company
they diddnt buy them only, only the most shares
Her mistrust ends up being kinda funny ||while alterra isn't a great company by any means, they aren't exactly doing anything shady||
old story had sam says they bought it i think
And ||they ended up letting Sam go out as a noble worker who got caught up in an accident||
oh and Cal (the pilot in the beginning) says he casnt take Robin closer on ''Company Spacebucks'' suggesting hes also XenoWorx
I mean much better than ||crazed lunatic who killed herself and a security officer||
guess how many Employees died in BZ
Not that that's the full story but that's how it would be seen
||and also worked with a terrorist that blew up a nuclear reactor with no regard to the safety of others||
Yeaaa and knowing the affects ||nuclear reactors can have, that could've been much more disastrous||
I like ||marg as a character, but I really hate how she basically manipulated Sam with conspiracy||
People who died:
Frost Pack:
Dr. Samantha Ayou (Scientist, Robotics)
Parvan Ivanov (Security Specialist)
Jasmine (control room test volunteer)
unidentified volunteer
Honestly seems weird because ||Sam comes off as a very level headed person||
Everyone from Mercury II
||But she's biased and impulsive. Tried blocking access to the leviathan instead of curing it||
oh and Mining Crew Delta
Lost a fifth of the crew to ice Worms
Lost Marcus to them who was skewered
and 6 more were emergency shuttled of the Planet
||I know this is largely because of the story having to be rewritten, but she made the cure and everything, there's 0 reason for her not to just cure it especially since a syringe bot just for that purpose is right there||
fun fact the Mining Crew PDA is the only still existing source of the Shuttles by alterra
they were in the old story but where cut (one was at Outpost 0)
back when Robin still started as an alterra employee on the Planet
In the snow buried outpost?
yes
in an older build you start in it and the 'Alterra Shuttle' as it says in game, is on the current empty landin gpad
and in the last built before everything in the story changed Jeff fly away in it while we see the base get buried
I think my favorite variation of the story has Sam being your eye in the sky
yeah thats that old story with jeff
back then the sattelite (Vesper) was a space station
It starts the same as current build, but Sam drops you your pod
And talks to you off and on
sam in the old story was personnel managment on Vesper
with a crew of 96 in Total onboard
now its a sattelite
theres still remnants of that old built
A bit yeah
like Delta station Docks teleport name is rocket
and one PDA found there still accidently call it rocket island lol
even tho they changed the rocket to a com tower
any more questions
the old Glacial Basin was weird
@coral siren actually Robin had no blueprints at all
tzhey were downloaded when she makes the habitat builder
She has fab blueprints
nope
the pda says itself, it downloads them AFTER she crafts the builder
i checked what i scanned
and when you crafts or grab your first builder it says:
"PDA: Adding emergency shelter blueprints."
and it adds like Foundations, hatch, compartments (I, L, T, X), Vertical Connector, Ladder, Fabricator, Wall Locker, Sign and reinforcement
and if you scan the builder fragment it adds
Battery Charger, Bioreactor, Power Transmitter and Solar panel
When I say fab blueprints, I meant blueprints you can use the fabricator for
Scanner tool for example
well those are in the fabricator
its just that you need to be licensed to use them
You use your pda in conjunction with the fabricator
Otherwise scanned items wouldn't be able to be built in it
id assume the pda has the ID / license data that tell the fabricator that you bare allowed mto use the fabs
the fab does have to be what receives that info
its what blocks you from making weapons other then the knife
Nowhere near as good as the first game IMO, biomes and whether are nice but it’s not as, immersive, didn’t get the same feeling as I did playing the first game, feels off, prawn suit feels better in BZ, Sea Truck sucks. I don’t like that it’s impossible to have a mobile base without needing a built base. First game is better to me for that reason, and the Sea truck is just, bad. Other than that the game is ok, story is nice and the biomes are good. Lacks in the Levi dept bc none of them are scary tho.
So I'm hearing it's possible to build inside the vent gardens?!
How many rooms could I fit in there you think?
about one corridor or X
Oh that's it...?
try: observatory with hatch. So cute
there are two big ones
I'll try! Can a bed fit into an observatory?
I think so
@eternal garnet look at that 🥰
https://youtu.be/kZn_1RLC7MU?si=IIETAotVmzeWIDO9
hi there
i just made it out of joke XD
You can (almost) fit an entire base in an obsorvatory 🙂
She shed.
Or They/Them Shed.
Probably more appropriate in this game since you're playing as a couple. LOL
Almost at the end of this game
can anyone help me
what do you need
its hard to explain
then no, we can't help
But do ask a question
Done
sorry I can’t help to I’m a egg right now
I'm gonna craft 3 storage modules
what’s a sea truck I’m a egg I don’t know what that is
no please wait you can’t I’m in the tree safe from the humans 
please Don’t kill the tree
Btw will prawn get damaged below its depth limit if it's docked on seatruck
Bro it is not funny
I don’t know
Mmm so it doesn't
Like make another locker for prawn
I'm planning on having 5 multipurpose rooms
Bedroom, indoor garden, aquarium, workstation, reactor room and storage room
Sounds like a big base
I could save resources by just using a power cell charger in seatruck dock to charge prawn instead of moonpool
That sounds quite big and a lot of work if your in survival
Hope it turns out good for ya!
I am
Where should I go for loads of load and lithium
I can't remember ;-;
I'm gonna build my entire thing out of glass tubes and use windows
3-4 windows and 3 reinforcement
Well hope you get it finished and it has good hull strength!
Btw will it be a good idea to route thermal power than purple vents to crystal Caves
I'll keep that in mind if I ever build somin there!
Purple vents might be hotter than crystal cave vents
= more power and I have the gold to spare
So you don't know?
I would recommend going into creative and checking first before wasting more material's and time
Ye
Il check if the wiki has this info
You don't wanna end up wasting materials for nothing
Oh wait purple vents doesn't have themal vents
Oh
They have those fumaroles
;-;
It does get hot but it's on cooldown I belive
Like they eurupt
Oh wait some erupt continuously
So if you used them I'm gonna guess your base would randomly have power then just turn off
That would be very annoying
There are some that are always exploding
But does it give off more heat than the crystal cave ones?
I'm gonna get some sleep now tho hope your base turns out well!
Idk
Are furmoles hotter than thermal vents ?
I think the purple vents fumaroles are not very good for thermal plants...
Oh
Il just use crystal caverns one
Wait what if I transmit a tree spires lava geyser?
Delta dock to crystal caverns 
I ment tree spires lava geyser
k. basically the same place
Is it worth it to route
I think so
Mmm
Well I'm poor in magnite and kinda rich on gold so
I can place my thermal plants in the best area ever and route them
How close is the tree spires lava geyser to the crystal caverns
So is there a specific way to move things along faster or do I js gotta sit around and wait for AL-AN to tell me where to go
you are not meant to wait for him. Exploration drives this game. Especially explore around those green signals
Where to go for lead and lithium?
lead: galena rocks, black, best scanned for in many biomes
lithium: deep twisty, on top of purple vents, thermal spires
Thermal spires..
the biome delta sits in
Does that have galena?
yes
Mmm
It's gonna be a struggle trying to transport loads of resources
I'm gonna add a extra storage module and a extra locker on prawn
So +96
Appreciate it cuh
Bro 3 storage modules ain't fitting all my stuff😭
make more >:3
Lots more
Make a whole multipurpose room separate from your home base
And fill it
Rows upon rows of lockers
Use a Large Room.
Bro that's sick
For your workstation, my favourite combo is a large room with an alien containment in the center + 2 nuclear reactors on both sides. That's 3000 energy, alien containment makes a perfect decoration that uses most of the room (I hate empty looking spaces), but you still have more than enough space for your fabricator, desks, modification station, battery chargers, plants, etc...
That doesn't keep you from creating other buildings for bigger alien containments
And you can have your favourite fishes with you in your workstation
And nuclear reactors on both sides look really good
Even better, make your large room 2 floors so you can have a nice indoor garden just above your workstation (with an alien containment too, looks nice and you can grow tall plants like kelp)
is there any land flora that only take up one slot?
Maybe frost vase plant
Thanks!
Marblemelons too
Seed yes, but melon no...at least the melons you can grow
That's definitely 2x2
pepper fruit are the most convenient to put in reactor, but they are 2x1
Is there any way to kill the leviathan in the vent garden area? I want to build a base there but shes in the way
Vent Garden is immune
yes. I recommend truck bumping it, ideally with speed booster upgrade. Or prawn arm punches
You can kill the chelicerate, not the vent garden
Ramming speed.
There's no stasis riffle, idk how we are supposed to kill the chelicerate
I just told you
Truck bumping doesnt work it just triggers the cutscene
I havent unlocked a way to zap it yet
charged zaps can also kill it, very slowly
Try going to || Marguerites seabase||
been to the pilot? Go there if you have mk1 depth. It's on the floor
missable item
I went to that location and when the marker disapears it goes down to where the cotton things are
the beacon is not her base. PDA lost her there. Go deeper details:||to NW, target at 360m||
cotton things is the wrong direction. Important place though, called deep lilypads
Wait is her base where its at?
no, the PDA lost her part way to her base
oh the item. yes
not a scan either, ready to use
She won't mind, she has no truck
usage: short zap cancels an attack. Long zap is less useful, but does damage
Workstation is just one room with all my needs
Perfect! Thanks!
I feel probably, in the deeper parts
I'm 400 meters down
in maida's home tunnel there's some. Technically lilypads
Mmm yeah I need to build a small base fast and gonna make a thermal plant for it
Why hate for bz?
Because people compare it to SN1
even then, BZ is better at some things
it's more beautiful. The story is actually better. Jukebox
Tree cove and lost river are beautiful
yes
Where crystal caves
Ok the 5 module truck doesn't feel that bad
Maybe because bz map is smaller
Why can't I enter the pilots sea base
Have you met her at Delta island? Has she told you to meet her on an iceberg?
Nah
If you've been to the ||Prawn Pilot's Base, there's a way down to it from there right next to it.|| Alternatively, you can access it from the Deep Purple Vents.
No I meant where's it is the beautiful images thing
🤨
This
Also
What do void chilerates even eat
So I didn't realize lava geysers went through vehciles
Almost cooked myself
I like how I just randomly stopped yapping in this server for a while
Gave myself a break
microorganisms
or smaller fish that wander off into the void, possibly
Ye but chilerates aren't really built to eat those
Maybe
Maybe venture out sometimes and drag in other creatures
They could drag in normal chilerates, squid sharks and glow whales
Also what killed the ice worm?
I think there might be a arctic dragon
The || sea dragon cousin might be a land dweller ||
Or semi aquatic like turtle or crocodile
old age? Maybe a wound from a rival worm
Fred
Mmm
So there probably isn't a arctic dragon?
0:
Maybe chilerates transition to void chilerates
Great theory but sadly that's just a theory a game theory
Like transgender
They transition but their bodies get damaged in the process
That's why they do less damage and have shell rot
I'm loving these theories
i guess we will see in Subanutica 2 (if its even on 4546B)
It's not
What if it's on 4645B?
ah shucks😔
A similar planet?
No it's confirmed on diffrent planet I belive
same solar system?
maybe we will get to see those damn purple biomechanical creatures
Should I use nuclear
wdym
Nuclear energy
ye its good
I noticed bz has WAY less drill usage than sb1
Bio mechanical like AL-AN?
made from Alan's species, the Precursors
those annoying things that warped you from the first game
Ye but
Still there is a chance
Or the they will probably add another new character for that specific game like robin for below zero and Riley for subnautica (his name is Riley right?)
It seems like every game skips 10 years
So it would have been 20 years since the auroa incident
And the || sea emperor hatching ||
I would like to see a shark with double head on a same body (the color of the body would be red). And also the creature has 6 yellow eyes in total (3 per head)
Like a hydra but a hammer head shark?
they would have teeth, but they will have 2 bigger teeth at the right and at the left of their jaw (per head), once he die, you can collect his teeth
Sexism what if it was a she?
So rude!
Is there anything else magruit does after I go to her greenhouse
you can now visit her home and go in the kitchen
How so? Below zero happens about 2 years after the first game
I already did
"You again HMMMMMMMM"
10 years is about the time between Degasi crash and Aurora crash
Oh
I thought magruit survived on the planet for 20 years lol
She would probably be crazy if she was there for over 20 years
She probably is
She was already crazy before she crash landed
Yes but crazier
I was crazy once
"crazy I was crazy once they locked me in a room a rubber room filled with rats and rats make me crazy" -margruit
Marge eats another rat
4546b is pretty cold
Like excluding lava zones
Actually we can't really exclude those
Considering how big they are
Crazy? I was crazy once. They locked me in a room. A rubber room. A rubber room with rats. And rats make me crazy.
I needed an excuse to play with audio settings. Silly rats.. rats make me crazy.

@barren mural , so continue?
Strength modules are not that good/important compared to the sonar thingy and all those things
With sonar you can avoid everything
Cool!
Are glow whales dangerous?
Yes
I can understand that PRAWN Suit hasn't space for building fabricator or other important modules inside, and it has small space for upgrades, only 6 (including arms), it's the minus of PRAWN Suit, but it's plus its mobile and it's arms mods are useful. What about Seatruck, it's less mobile than PRAWN Suit and slower but it can be small portative base and it's smaller than Cyclops it's plus. My opinion that they're good combo and they're same by rating in best, it's just in taste what you like more.
banana
How dangerous?
Worse than reaper
||you've been trolled, they're just decoration||
It attacked me
HUH NUH
But i was in my seatruck
Now I feel not safe
Do they mot like light?
@plucky gate Pick up me Im scared
Anyways, which vehicle you thought will appear in below zero before it's release
🙂

I have a question
Where is the Fragment for the || PPU ||
The || Parallel Processing Unit ||
inside the ||wrecks. You will probably need to visit 2 of the 3. They are all bits of Mercury II||
Bring laser cutter
That's the hint you get. Yes
Oh ok, can you show pls?
3 scans. Only two in the back end
map, wrecks in orange
the wreck you probably found is the left one
I found another jukebox song!!! LETS GO
@sterile violet Robin was a Xenologist, aka alien life scientist
Ok so my base is right next to the crystal castle
Oh my god
I forgot to bring raw titanium
NOOO
He ate me bro
Dude he keeps killing me
How am I supposed to build my base
Maybe don't build in their patrol path?
Bruh
It's beautiful
Nope this sucks badly
I'm just realizing how bad it's gonna be to transmit power here from tree spires
so use nuclear or bio
Yeah
Is there any thermal vents near this area?
Like it's right above the crystal cache
no

Also so I don't know which way is out
I'm just gonna go towards my bacon at margs base
🥓
Help my power transmitter aren't connecting
Guys what to do if you are underwater drowning, and you saved just before you drowned?
got air bladder? select it, press F (on PC)
Or, just die. If you carry a beacon, it will drop
Finally almost got my transmitter chain down
anyone know any tips for getting the ||Parallel Processing Unit|| without the laser cutter or where i can find cutter fragments cause im having difficulties finding it
Onboard the ||Mercury II|| wrecks or Sea Monkey Nests in the Arctic Kelp Caves have the fragments.
y'all why don't I have the building recipe for seatruck docking build
There should be a ||total of 6 ppu fragments in all three wreck sections, and of these 3 don't require laser cutter. But it's easier to get laser cutter from places Rock Slicey mentioned. Also possible to find laser cutter fragments in Koppa mining site.||
It should unlock with moonpool blueprint. Are you playing older version which doesn't have seatruck dock?
idk it's an august 2021 ver I downloaded from internet archive
how can I dock my modules then if theres no build for it
I hope your download source is a legimite one...anyways modules disconnect when you dock in moonpool, or you can disconnect them manually before docking in moonpool
ok so to connect the module I just have to create it and connect it manually?
I got the game from a friend so ion know if its legitimate or not
Modules have a yellow handle to pilot them.
Possible missed achievements after completing the game:
||Curing frozen leviathan
Crafting snowfox
Crafting cold suit||
hey man I'm kinda confused on what to do next after disabling the satellite, I've got some spiral plants cuttings but idk what else to do
any1 can help me?
if you leave the island, you get a radio invite somewhere from maida
don't forget to push the panel button
from the iceberg?
I alr triggered the Maida dialogue about the satellite
idk what to do so I just collected random ahh stuff
make sure you can grow prestons and peppers
ok after that what I do
sorry about copy/paste this, common stuck point and question:
Note that you got a (very OP) salad recipe that you can grow indoors. ||The greenhouse finishes Marges storyline, but it ties into Sam's. Now you can scan stuff in marges kitchen and bathroom, and there's a PDA with her reaper story.
Go find and optionally cure the frozen leviathan. Phi map: the radio mast in the west. Find the PDA (Security Recording) in the blue rubble of the explosion next to a buried forklift, with the audio||
yes. Ending of a story thread, so you feel a bit lost
H
ngl sam just dumb
3 words: seatruck defense system
Exactly it keeps jumpscaring me
I have to be out on foot to build
Why would you need to build? Use the seatruck perimeter defense system
Because I need a base?
I'm moving out of twisty bridges
fire perimeter defense on attack, not before
short burst
I'm on foot
I mean like without vehicle
He keeps eating me and I lose my items
Why is my base running out of power Huhh
Help its flickering on and off
Ok now it's back
I think the lava geyser turned off a bit
I can't really check because my thermal plant is 600 meters away
Why would you build a base in such a place
It's actually pretty useful
My base is right above the crystal caverns cache
It's not useful to not getting eaten
I have died 20+ times to shadow
Try building a bunch of I compartments to block it from getting to you
Opulence
Excuse me?
if you kill it, it will not respawn
True
He will stay here
Killing leviathans is much harder in below zero, no stasis rifle
I mean, you can use prawn suit if you have one
Yeah I do
Grapple and drill him to death
What do you include as a mega base?
Idk like 4+ rooms
Prob like my 40-50th day
I haven't played below zero in a while but I am replaying the og and I made a base out of 2 big rooms stacked on top of eachother, 2 moonpools, in the bottom big room I've devided it to sections and I have a room with a bioreactor
Oop
Okay 12 rooms
8 multipurpose
1 moonpool
1 controll
1 scanner
1 seatruck dock
Oh I have a scanner too, forgot
Ohhhh, that sucks
For some reason my items only spawn on the ground after 5 minutes?
Why are you using multipurpose rooms? Use big rooms
I don't really have space
Ah
Also those are expensive
I have 2 XD
Large rooms need almost double the titanium and lithum
In sb1 I had 3 just for ac units
I have one with 2 aquariums
Wait, really?
No way 
Il probably build a large room for living room and ac unit
My base is powered by a single thermal plant that's 600 meters away
I have 2 ac units, they are larger in big rooms which is nice
Sb1 base
One full of kharaa infected fish and the other for fish I like
Coollll
In BZ?
Ye
I don't remember
There are less than in sub I think
You can get sea monkey eggs
Glow whale and squidshark eggs are a must
Sadly no
What small fish should I get?
Hmmm, let me do bit of research
Ok, so, Arrow Rays from the lilly pad islands or tree spires
Yo there's red crystals
Mmm
Yeah, that's the caverns
Have you never been before?
I been here
Ah, ok
I was planning a base here
Maybe get some discus fish from the deep lilly pad caves or tree spires
Personally love arctic peepers
And you can also try and get spinner fish from Arctic Kelp Caves,
Deep Lilypads Cave,
Lilypad Islands or
Lilypads Crevice
Crystal imo
The fabricator caverns are just a maze of death
Ye and the ambience and opulence isn't their
Nu
What
The ambience and opulence is indeed not there
But it is in the crystal caverns
Also that place is a lot more scary
The crystal caverns that is
Great atmosphere
My base is about 400 meters away
Fabricator?
Mm idk
The kinda green water of the fabricator vs deep blue of crystal
Yeah
You see that ugly thing
It's design is actually amazing
But it's still aweful looking
A face only a mother can love
And even she is half blind
more like, a face missing
Ye
Ngl i wish the ||Shadow Leviathan|| has a lingering poison like effect cuz it's PDA entry mentions it has a really acidic mouth that breaks down prey, so if it eats your vehicle there could be a bit of a poison effect like the hanging tentacles, would've made the creature more threatening
Thank you for listening my ted talk lol
That sounds cool
I'd be way more threatened by the thing rather me going like "get off me..."
The Seatruck tazer do be OP ngl
Yeah
That's a mouth I think I think that's that's it's straight up stomach
Terrifying
It is, it's mouth is straight up connected to it's stomach
Wouldn't shadow levithans acid be spilling out
Dont think it shows in game but it does in its PDA entry
I have his pda
Il read it
Me watching the shrimp try to eat me through the vent garden
Oh and with little legs to push in prey further
I guess it does have a mouth
I think the acidic mouth is from stomach acid
It brings some into the mouth
So its digesting you right then and there? That is if you're below 80HP of course
So oddly for smaller lifeforms the shadow levithan kinda hunts like a carnivorous plant
Yes
I think the mouth acid is used to partly digust the prey like our saliva does and also to incapacite it
If i ever see a Shadow Leviathan crawl on the sea floor like a Crabsquid, i'm blowing up 4546B
Acid could cause prey to become unconscious, die or become crippled
And than it brings it into its stomach
I swear I saw a video of it crawling on fabricator cave crystals
This is alien acid we're talking, who knows how corrosive it's acids are
You think it's related to ghost
I mean, Shadow and Ghosts are relatively far apart in terms of family, then again Stalkers and Snow stalkers are a thing, could be a Convergent Evolution thing
Idk they seem related
Ngl would it have made sense for shadow to be in void levithans
Imagine being in the void, seeing but pitch black and a giant blue mouth rushes towards you
Ngl i feel like the Shadow Leviathan should be like Adult Ghost size if it werent for the Crystal Caves being cramped
hey y'all, bit of a question I had. so I've found 3 prawn suit fragments from the Q59 Architect Artifact. don't spoiler me, but can you tell me which part to explore? (only the biome, not the structure nor building.)
I believe there's 4 inside that mine. If not, lilypads
Void shrimp are pretty scary I guess
Maybe I should have built a base their lol
Can I build snowfox in water?
no
Bruh
Isn't it like a hoverbike
Is it faster than seaglide
The void is unironically a good place to build
And I'm back
it's a land bike. The charge pad crafts it too
We can put out OWN music in our jukebox??
on PC, yes
I just figured that out now
Ima put ABONDON ship
I assume I build him and he like gives me instructions to build a rocket
don't let him live 😂
Imagine I tell him at the last second
"Nah remember the sea emperoress"
imagine if we could build creatures in subnautica below zero, like ||aliens|| crafted warpers or like us when we craft ||alan||
Unplayable game, completely broken, refunding
sarcasm+mods
Wish there were mods for switch
Fr
you can't say stuff like that even as a joke
How much power does my base need?
I dont have an really big machines or anything
Maybe one water thingy
Not much then. If you want to know use a control room.
3-4 solar panels
Oh
I went really overkill
Anyway
What is the best food to farm?
I dont like having to eat chips every time
It depends on your progress.
There is an overpowered recipe you get at some point.
You should plant its ingredients.
I dont have alan yet, but im decently far
Salad?
Yes.
I have a load of uranium but barley any lead
I'm probably gonna tear down my mini base and make a few more thermal plants routed to my main base
I only have one thermal plant in tree spires powering my crystal caverns base
I've got 3+ lockers, I'd be happy to send you some if I could. LOL
Twisty bridges, around Delta, lillypad areas. Make a scanner room and search for the galena outcrops.
You can also pin recipes with lead and you might get some presents.
Yes, that'll make the game run real well on the switch...
I have a scanner room
It's in crystal caverns
I have a drill arm also
Make more for those other areas. I put several in important areas when I'm hunting resouces. Drill arm won't help for lead, there isn't any large outcrop.
Doesn't crystal caverns have a lot of resources
Not much lead there. Titanium, magnetite, lithium, and quartz are the main things. Kyanite.
Mmm I need those also
Is 3 thermal plants at a lava geyser and 1 nuclear enough
Delete the nuclear and yes.
Why?
You asked if it was enough. Three thermal is almost always plenty.
Unless you're sitting in your base all day long pulling water out of 4 filtration machines and charging a bunch of empty powercells.
Also nuclear is a part of your base, so after you reload a save that will be your primary source, and the thermals will never be touched until the nuclear is depleted. Unless you somehow have the thermals directly attached to the base without using a power transmitter, but even then it's random on if any of those would be the primary source on a reload.
Yeah their transmitted 500 meters away
What happens if I attach a solar farm to the transmittion chain
Hi everyone
I apologise in advance as this question has probably been asked a hundred times already.
I'm in a playthrough of Below Zero. At some point, a sea monkey got in my seatruck, and was preventing from getting out. I tried the "unstuck" option from the menu, which indeed got me out of the seatruck... But the sea monkey was still inside, and preventing me from getting in.
I looked online for solutions, and someone on reddit suggested using the entreset command. After pushing on the seatruck and using the command, I finally got the monkey out.
It's now many many hours later, and I realize that I haven't got an achievement for a while. That's when I read online that using a console command permanently disables achievements for the save.
I'm very sad right now, because I've played a long while and really don't want to restart my game. I'm also frustrated that there wasn't at least a warning before executing the command stating that achievements would be disabled.
The only command I executed was because of a glitch, I did not and still do not intend on cheating. Are my achievements really absolutely trashed, or is there a way to bypass this? Would using Steam Achievements Manager to unlock only the achievements I should have unlocked be a problem regarding TOS or something like this? Is there a risk of getting any kind of ban doing this?
Thank you for your time
Should have shoved the sea monkey into a module and disconnected it
Or docked the sea truck
You decided to use commands before getting a module?
it was early in the game, i had not unlocked any module
i was just trying to get in my seatruck
and i couldn't anticipate that I had to go unlock, build and attach a module just to get a seamonkey out of my vehicle
i tried to fix a glitch with the first way i found, i had no idea it would permalock my save
Just use the manager ig
are you on PC? Installing the mod manager should re-enable achievements
The things you should have done, save often, and load a save after that unstuck try
Do seatruck upgrades work on seamoth
no. but the seamoth upgrades are still ingame
Oh?
even sonar...
it will not go in the moon pool
Can it dock to seatruck dock module
Bruh
I can just use a power cell charger
sorry, what do you mean exactly by mod manager?
no. remove cells or make new cells
(yes, i'm on pc)
The base installation you make to enable mod usage. Qmodmanager it used to be called
Btw statis is also in?
Dude that's gonna be nice while building
Because of shadow levithan
yes., but doesn't work on everything (worms)
What about shadow
I think that works
Same issue with power transmitters because it isn’t directly attached to the base, it will connect in last and be the last source used.
Bro I should I done this way earlier so I didn't die 20 times to Shadow
What if I have only solar and themarl no nuclesr
repeating, commands disable achievements/trophies
Il just use the manager
That’s still fine. Just saying that anything directly on your base gets used first,
Mmm will solar and thermal get used equally
20 solar panels and 3 thermal
I could make 6 thermal
Should be 2250 power
thank you very much, i installed the BepInEx loader and the Fix Achievements mod, and after loading my game, i got my missing achievements !
Isn't seamoth very speedy
it is if you press W+A+space and go diagonal
Faster than prawn?
depends on your prawn skill. With grapple it can be silly fast, at least on land
Seamoth could be really good in this game
Power is something a lot of folks don’t understand, and sadly the game didn’t implement it all that well…
A base will draw power from only one source at a time. During a save, the first power source created for a base is drawn from first, if you make another source (second solar panel, etc), that source is drawn from after the first is depleted, then the third source, etc, as long as the more primary sources are at zero. If the sun comes up and you have three solar panels, the first panel will kick in and be primary as long as it has power as long as it can keep up.
There is a point where a base may be drawing more power than a single source can keep up with, but if that source is still generating power and still falls to zero, the base will begin alternating between two sources, until that second source falls to zero, then you may end up alternating between three sources, and so on…
Each type of power produces at a given rate. Solar is tricky as it is less efficient the deeper it is, everything else produces at a set rate. Power demand at the base is for everything using power, chargers, dock/moonpool, scanner room, filtration machines, lights, fabricator, etc.
I mentioned earlier the order of power sources, all that is out the window after you save and reload. Directly attached sources are loaded in a random order so you don’t know what might be first. One reload it might be solar, the next a bio reactor, the next your nuclear. Anything with a power transmitters will take a few moments for that line to the base to be established, so those will load in last and be drawn from last.
I’ve found that three thermal reactors on a nice hotspot will almost never go completely to zero for available base power. You’d need to be using a LOT of power in the base for an extended period to drain all three.
I might bz, is it easier?
There is definitely something attractive by having a large number for your available base power, but the reality is that after a time the number is meaningless.
A bit easier, but definitely a different style of gameplay.
Yes, but more character interaction, dialog throughout the game, etc.
||AL-An?||
Original game still had a story, but you are alone and there’s not much dialog with others.
Dialog with him yes, and one other…
Also, heat?
Both games have many pda entries with dialog to go through, and your PDA talks a fair bit when you discover new things.
Not sure what you’re asking there.
Like tempature
There is temperature in the game, yes…
A lot?
In BZ you can freeze, in both games you can be burned.
Also does bz have prawn?
I'm in Crystal caves
Definitely
Solar will be a long way away then…
I'm gonna connect it to my trasmitter chain
I already have one from tree spire to Crystal
Put enough transmitters in there and you can go as far as you like. Circle the whole map if you want.
LoL
Should I just do thermal
I would. Tried solar via power transmitter once, just didn’t work out, and thermal is probably the best source in the game.
Always producing limitless power.
As many as you need. Usually one is plenty, I just pick up bottles as I’m leaving then it uses power while I’m gone, and usually two new bottles when I’m back. Most food gives some water and I use the local plants when I’m out. Also grow many things in bases, even small outposts will have a small garden for nutrition while I’m away.
Most of my runs after the first few times I don’t even use fish for anything, not even bio fuel.
I could just get water from salad
I want a powerful salad in SN like BZ does.
Marblemellons are as good as it gets.
Idk why that's a subnautica emoji.

Bulbos
Actually marble gives more food and water than bulbo. Though bulbo has lots of uses per plant.
Marbles grow pretty fast though. Eat three, knife one, plant more.
I eat them in BZ sometimes, but not often.
Pity the ||Bulbo|| in BZ isn’t something you could get seeds from.
It's literally in margs house why
Exactly
Salad is just so op though
It's also not that hard to grow
Preston's plants are ridiculous easy to plant
I don't even use bio power at all
Generally I’ll only use it for a scanner outpost while I’m needing to scan for resources or fragments.
Wouldn't solar usually be better for outposts
Wait actually no scanners need a load of power yeah?
@chrome cedar do you use floura or fauna to fuel it
Where the heck is the table coral
Twisty bridges
Bruh
You can run a scanner for a good while on bio. I usually use a lantern tree inside to double as a snack. Gel sacks are about the best power source though.
You can run a scanner pretty continuously on two solar panels up to about 100m deep. Maybe three after that.
How much do gel sack give?
Can’t recall, but wiki has a table of the fuel value of most things.
Powers by base with bio /s
But four gel is far better than a single lantern fruit and takes up the same space in the reactor.
Main base definitely thermal. But a scanner outpost only needs to run while you’re in the area scanning. Fire it up when you need it once you plant a convenient crop there.
Peppers would be better than lantern fruit both as biofuel and snacks
I’ll keep a seatruck storage module stocked with everything for a scanner room plus bio. Plus some fuel for it. Disassemble when I’m done and move to a new spot.
Probably, but I usually get the lantern early before I get to the peppers.
Is it possible to make a levithan containment facility in surival
Wait so shadow levithans always stay on the same path yewh?
Was it a bad idea building right in a shadows patrol path
I have a base there too, it's great
Right above the cache?
No, it's under the first leviathan's path
Is 92 degree good for thermal plant
Does crystal caverns have lava geysers
no. I remember you asking this
Also my base lights something flicker
There's at least one spot in the lower reaches that has some thermal vents, plenty for thermal plants - no flowing lava tho
Nah il just use tree spire
When it goes under 250 power
Are you looking to build just anywhere in that region? Or do you have a certain area in mind?
No I already built my base
And already routed one thermal plant to inner crystal caverns
What’s the max lower for your base? I’ve seen that happen when the base is using power and is between power sources.
I have had lights flicker when charging my Seatruck, when it has 2 ion power cells in
Oh wait it's because my prawn with 2 ion
Like, the large power draw causes it -- maybe
It shouldn't happen with 3 now
Ngl I could probably find enough magnite to make 5
Something with the power draw, definitely. Not sure of the specifics.
Glow whales as vehicles?
What should I do with all these uranium crystals
Toss them.
Ngl I have most of base on power off
Oh my lord this interior
Spin around it I think
That's what I did with shadow
But sometimes it runs away and then I gotta chase it but it pulls a 180 and bites my bum
I think there's also something else you could do
I know shadow levithan will sometimes still stay attacking a prawn suit if you exit fast enough
Maybe the shrimp works like that also
And you have a bit to scan him while he's chewing on your prawn
I'm not that far into the game yet ;-;
O rly? That's good to know
Make sure you stay under 30 seconds
Because a second one will spawn
Mk
So where do i get || rocket blueprints ||
You don’t. Not in the game.
So how do I escape?
Will Alan summon some portal or something
Why are my creepvines stuck at 53%
Are you growing them in alien containment? Need two stacked on top of each other. Might even need to be perfectly stacked in large room.
Yes in ac
Oh yeahhhh
Well uhhh is their another plant light source that fits in single ac? @steel stream
No idea🤷🏻♂️
Or something.
No other glowing plant that I’m aware of. There are those glowing things in the deep Lillypad area, forget what they are called. But not sure you can drop them inside alien containment.
Oh I have one
I suspect you can’t put it there.
NOOOOOOO
Sad
Wait I have idea
@chrome cedar I found a way
So there was a window in my ac room so I just dropped the seed outside the window
@chrome cedar
Wait a minute
Don't creepvines cluster float
I thought they did? May just sink slowly.
Window light is cool.
DUDE, shadow levithan literally ripped my prawn out of it's moonpool
It doesn't glow when item dropped
Ah, must need to be growing to glow.
Uhhh
I thought levithans didn't do this?
I’ve had my parked one gnawed on, but docked surprises me.
Maybe they only fixed it for the fabricator caves?
Ok I think I have a idea
Why
So the shadow was spamming attacks to eat my player and he was near my prawn
Because you can’t take it inside and folks were losing theirs.
So I think the attack was ment for me but prawn was so close the prawn got grabbed
When I build there I usually put a foundation down and park the prawn under that, then they can’t reach it.
That can happen.

where do i get a habitat builder
Just got killed on hardcore when I was going to finish the game👍
dang
find it? 120m deep in twisty bridge canyon in a small building
here
Where to get glow whale egg?
inside a couple of the floating rocks in lilypads
buy some RGB lights, attach
What are the glowing animals I can get
the most glowy are the small shrimp
My bedroom is a bit too dark
What is their name
rock grub
Also consider the flowering spores, they are large orange glowing seeds (?)
Well I already have one of those in my other ac room
But I want my bedroom to have more crystal caverns atmosphere
Their in this game?
Ngl I forget they exist
yes, rock punchers love them
So he just has to punch rock and I can find it
What bed did yall choose
I choose zeta
the lifepod
Lifepod 5?
That's zetas I think
5 hull integrity 💀
This is great
Base building in bz
thanks
