#

Possible reason: The game updated, and the dock moved. I have seen this

scenic lance
#

The only thing I can do is remove and add the batteries and upgrades. Being able to save the upgrades was nice.

eternal garnet
#

Because the dock model was edited, the dock moved. This is my theory

scenic lance
#

Ya so how can I destroy the truck. It wonโ€™t let me disassemble them dock because it still thinks the truck is inside.

eternal garnet
#

shoot it with ideally crashfish, or just rocks. Prop cannon

#

I believe "item crash" does not put it in inventory, sadly

flat totem
#

why are there bubbles lol

eternal garnet
#

I beieve it means damaged truck. Bit misplaced here, but hey it's a game

flat totem
#

but it doesn't make sense to have bubbles there

eternal garnet
#

no

flat totem
#

unknown worlds tends to misplace bubble effects lol

#

in the main game the same happened with the flame knife

eternal garnet
#

that was bad. never stopped

tidal sparrow
#

I also had such a bug. Just suicide

#

I also had a funny bug that allowed me to walk on the seabed as if on the surface.

scenic lance
#

@tidal sparrow what do you mean? If I die, it will just respawn my body in the base, it wonโ€™t move the bugged truck.

tidal sparrow

#

how's bz chat doin

eternal garnet
#

shooting the truck will work, not sure how fast

rugged meadow
#

Here have a pic of this beautiful kitty

eternal garnet
#

Sam was into robotics, and she made that leg

rugged meadow
#

I totally forgot this cat's name

eternal garnet
#

Potato is the inofficial name

rugged meadow
#

potato the fluffy little couch walrus

scenic lance
#

Ok I smashed the truck with the prawn suit and then disassembled the buggy dock. Thanks for all your help guys. Appreciated!

eternal garnet
#

I was going to suggest, but I thought it wasn't allowed in there

summer cliff
#

im so confused whatdo i do after i get the seaglide

#

theres no radio like the original lol

eternal garnet
#

explore all the things. Especially deep twisty bridges, any distress signals, and any island

#

no there isn't. You get something else soon

summer cliff
#

so explore?

eternal garnet
#

But, even that doesn't pull you everywhere. You gotta explore

summer cliff
#

i read a beginner guide and it said not to explore that much

#

like the original

eternal garnet
#

bad guide

summer cliff
#

cuz you can easily miss big chunks of gameplay

#

also do you mean by land or ocean

eternal garnet
#

Explore every area you find, if not now then come back and do it

#

Too deep? Do not forget to come back with the rebreather

summer cliff
#

aight

eternal garnet
#

the partial guidance you can get, is related to the distress signal

summer cliff
#

are there any o2 tanks after the first one?

#

or do i have to explore to get their bp's

eternal garnet
#

yes, ultra and boost (meh)

#

both for finding in seamonkey nests

#

oh wait. Large inbetween

#

this is in Twisty at depth ||120m ||

misty vigil
#

is it normal that i cant get out of this screen(with vortex and qmodmanager)

eternal garnet
#

you broke it. Note qmod is not compatible with experimental atm.

#

if that's not it, one of your mods is breaking it

misty vigil
#

i only have qmod

eternal garnet
#

and some mods. yes?

#

I don't know what vortex is

misty vigil
eternal garnet
#

on experimental?

modest pagoda
#

how many ion cubes are needed to beat the game?

misty vigil
eternal garnet
modest pagoda
#

nice, I can make the rest into ion stuff

eternal garnet
misty vigil
#

microsft store, i have gamepass so its free

eternal garnet
#

I don't know if it's meant to work there. Looks like no. Best remove it: rename or delete folder bepinex in the app folder

carmine bobcat
#

How much young cotton / Flowering Spores do I need?

eternal garnet
#

knife the small cotton and plant them, then you need 1.
spores, not sure. At least 2

#

Two makes 1 benzene

#

Looks like you may need only 2 ever. But they do make nice outdoor lights, just dropped

flat totem
#

Aw they patched the thing that you could use empty batteries in a recipe to make them full

#

big sad

modest pagoda
#

noooooooo

#

eh, only used that like once though

flat totem
#

it still works in the first game though

#

so sad that they realised the mistake

modest pagoda
#

yeah, used it in the og once because I ran out of copper

flat totem
#

I used it before I had the recharger

#

It was great because I didn't need to make new batteries all the time

modest pagoda
#

yeah, I always made sure to have only the lowest powered battery I had in my inventory and make something with that

flat totem
#

yeah same

modest pagoda
#

anything important I should bring to crystal caverns?

eternal garnet
#

a beacon, drop it at the entrance

#

and truck+perimeter defense, not prawn

modest pagoda
#

dont you need prawn to drill kyanite?

flat totem
#

doesn't that biome have the shadow thing?

eternal garnet
modest pagoda
#

okay

eternal garnet
#

gold, silver, nickel

modest pagoda
#

oh, I need nickel, so probably yeah

flat totem
#

I've seen it in videos. But I am trying to avoid storyline since I pretty much spoiled the original game for myself lol

modest pagoda
#

oof, but same

#

(and the second one too)

flat totem
#

haven't done that to myself for the second one

#

I've accidently seen some cloud city in a video but no clue what it means luckily

modest pagoda
#

oh, I should explain that then

flat totem
#

maybe it's heaven and the character died peacefully ๐Ÿ˜‚

modest pagoda
#

no

eternal garnet
#

maybe don't watch spoiler vids

flat totem
#

yeah, woops

modest pagoda
flat totem
modest pagoda
#

yes

#

and already completed it before

eternal garnet
#

oh, so 2025. ok

flat totem
#

what do you mean second one then?

modest pagoda
#

well, techniqually BZ isn't subnautica two, more of a side story, but its the second game

flat totem
#

Well it takes place after subnautica

#

I don't think our character from the first story has an interesting story to tell anymore

#

he has to pay off his debt

eternal garnet
#

I agree, second, not "two"

#

SN 2.0 and BZ 2.0 coming soon. These are just updates with some new items

flat totem
#

But ngl, I kinda wish I could choose the pda voice, the new one is not that nice. I also really dislike the character voice lol, being silent was much nicer. I do like Alan's voice though, it's soothing

quick terrace
# modest pagoda well, techniqually BZ isn't subnautica two, more of a side story, but its the se...

I've said this before and I'll say it again
I don't understand why everyone says BZ isn't "Subnautica 2"
now I know it isn't called that but think about it, they take place on the same planet, they both have Subnautica in the name and everything else about them makes it obvious that they're the same kind of game and that BZ is a continuation of the first one
just because it doesn't continue the exact same story from the first one doesn't mean it shouldn't be considered the second Subnautica game
I'm not saying it should be called Subnautica 2, but I also don't think that's a completely wrong name for it if people wanna call it that

modest pagoda
#

btw, that came from Shad4w the mod, I don't care if you call it subnautica 2 or not

quick terrace
#

yeah I know, I've just seen the argument so many times

modest pagoda
#

same, I'm tired of it

quick terrace
#

there have been no other Subnautica games after the 1st one except BZ so by logical conclusion it is the second game

flat totem
#

I don't think they should name the next game subnautica 2 though, it would get really confusing

quick terrace
#

agreed

flat totem
#

either they name it subnautica 3 or give it another name like below zero

modest pagoda
quick terrace
#

if it does end up being an actual Subnautica game and not just one in the same universe, I very much doubt it'll be called "Subnautica 3" as that's just a super generic name

flat totem
#

yeah I hope they don't do that

#

but just go with the star wars naming scheme

gritty coral
#

Subnautica: This One's Just All Lava.

flat totem
#

Subnautica: On Land

quick terrace
#

I'd absolutely love a game called "Subnautica: Into The Abyss" where there's tons of really deep, scary biomes and deadly creatures compared to either SN1 or BZ

modest pagoda
#

yes

quick terrace
gritty coral
#

Then after they crank out a few of those, they drop Subnautica: Dipping Our Toes Back In.

quick terrace
#

I'm sure the "Subnautica: On Land" thing was just a joke but if it was all on land it wouldn't be Subnautica anymore as the name literally translates to "underwater" ๐Ÿ˜›

flat totem
modest pagoda
#

I swear, why is it so hard to find the pilot when you need to, but when you don't want to, it seems thats all you can find

quick terrace
#

this is facts lol

flat totem
#

it used to be something special and scary, but now you get used to it

true berry
flat totem
#

problem solved

true berry
modest pagoda
#

why are there 3 squidsharks?!?!??!?!?!??!??!??!?!?

#

4?!?!?!?!

true berry
eternal garnet
#

Because 5 seemed a bit excessive

flat totem
#

I just hope they'll reduce the damn titanium spawn chance in the next game lol

#

it's a bit much now

quick terrace
#

I dreamed about a 3rd Subnautica game last night, interestingly enough
only things I remember was there was a biome in an underwater cave that sort of reminded me of the Jellyshroom Caves in SN1 and at some point it led to a giant underwater expanse that went really deep and there was remains of Chelicerates, showing that there could've been something even bigger preying on them
idk it doesn't make a ton of sense now but it was really cool at the time

modest pagoda
#

yo, thats interesting

flat totem
#

imo they should have kept the same spawn chance of titanium as in the normal game, with the lowered cost of the ingots (like, it costs only half what it used to) it would have been balanced enough. Maybe it would have been better if they had increased copper spawn chances

true berry
quick terrace
flat totem
modest pagoda
#

I want it to be less outcrops, like 3 for most things, with a chance of titanium in it

flat totem
#

I find more titanium than anyhting else

quick terrace
modest pagoda
#

also, limestone is the only outcrop that is impossible to not find

quick terrace
#

that might be because limestone doesn't exist in BZ lol

flat totem
flat totem
quick terrace
#

I hate the mineral detector lol, the thing is useless

#

scanner room is 10x better

modest pagoda
flat totem
#

It's a good tool at night, cause the night is so damn dark in this game lol

quick terrace
#

wait is it still called limestone?

flat totem
#

way less glowy plants

modest pagoda
flat totem
quick terrace
#

man I need to play BZ again soon xD
can't believe I got that wrong

flat totem
#

I don't get why they added new outcrops and different names. Nothing was wrong with the old ones

#

some are just the old ones with a different name too

opaque harbor
#

limestone doesn't even taste like limes sadStreamer

quick terrace
#

are you implying you've tasted one? ๐Ÿ˜›

flat totem
#

y'all like to torture us? ๐Ÿ˜‚

opaque harbor
#

I am from the team yes

#

Idk whos idea it was

#

Just kinda happened i guess, keep everyone on their toes

eternal garnet
#

artyom is a blobfish in your mind

flat totem
#

the worst part is, I don't think you can rebind it. Haven't found the setting in any case

quick terrace

also I'm pretty sure you can rebind it

dang

flat totem
#

so yeah, great sadness

quick terrace
#

is it not possible to rebind that? I thought I remembered doing it once

#

oh that's what it is

flat totem
#

I tried, it still used left click

quick terrace
#

it just switches hand use, not switch container
I remember now

flat totem
#

I just think they were aware of what they were doing and just did it on purpose to torture us. Every keybind can be rebounded except for that one I think ๐Ÿ˜‚

quick terrace
#

can you rebind the switch container key in the first Subnautica? I don't remember

flat totem
#

Don't know, never had a reason to look

quick terrace
#

like when I switch back to Minecraft after playing Subnautica for a long time and forget that tab doesn't open the inventory lol

quick terrace
#

true

#

except I don't cause I like e being the inventory button in mc

#

I'm fine with different games having different buttons for stuff

carmine bobcat
#

Can you kill ||Shadow leviathans||

flat totem
#

you can kill everything

#

they just have a lot of hp

modest pagoda
carmine bobcat
quick terrace
#

uhh not they aren't?

#

Ghost Leviathans are exclusive to the first game

flat totem
#

no there aren't lol

carmine bobcat
#

Wait wrong one

#

There i fixed it

flat totem
#

again yes

#

everything is killable

quick terrace
#

in the first game almost

#

in BZ there's a few unkillable creatures

#

in SN1 you can't kill the Sea Emperor

flat totem
#

oh really?

#

which ones are unkillable?

true berry
modest pagoda
true berry
modest pagoda
#

you never see poof

opaque harbor
#

lets move SN1 discussion out of here, especially with spoilers like that

modest pagoda
#

uh, ||is the body piece in crystal caverns past 650m?||

true berry
#

Fair point

quick terrace
bold monolith
#

Spikey trap.

quick terrace
#

oh you can't kill those either? didn't realize that

flat totem
#

Is it just me or are the kamikaze fish way less aggressive than in the first game?

quick terrace
bold monolith
#

I'm sure there are people who didn't play SN but BZ.

opaque harbor
#

I've encountered a good chunk of people who play BZ before SN1, so its just courteous there, especially with large SN1 story spoilers.

quick terrace
#

yeah I guess you're right

#

kinda weird that you'd play BZ before SN1 but whatever, up to them

modest pagoda
#

||how much kyanite for organs, and where are they||?

quick terrace
#

||Organs are in the Crystal Caves cache I'm pretty sure, I believe it's a couple kyanite but I'd have to check||

quick terrace
#

yeah

modest pagoda
#

crap

quick terrace
#

also it's 3 pieces of kyanite

flat totem
quick terrace
#

the ||cache|| is at 820 m

modest pagoda
#

||so 8 pieces to get thermal and the two depth mods, plus organs?||

modest pagoda
quick terrace
carmine bobcat
flat totem
#
  • the first game is arguably better imo
quick terrace
#

I really enjoy both games although I'd say the first one still comes out slightly on top for me

modest pagoda
quick terrace
#

there are aspects of BZ that I like better than SN1 but overall the first one is the best imo

flat totem
#

the story is better in the first one, at least from the point that I am in bz

#

also it was easier to know what to do, with the radio being a thing

carmine bobcat
#

If a 3 subnautica comes i want the ||precursors to still be alive and kinda help us||

modest pagoda
#

I'm guessing its gonna be kinda like the early acces story of BZ

flat totem
#

Yeah i heard that they basically changed everything from the ea story?

quick terrace
modest pagoda
#

theres only one kyanite needed for ||organs?||

quick terrace
#

3 pieces for the ||organs||, 2 for the Prawn thermal reactor and 1 for the mk II depth module

#

mk I doesn't need any

modest pagoda
#

oh, you forgot seatruck๐Ÿ˜‚

quick terrace
#

oh I didn't realize that's what you meant

modest pagoda
#

yeah, wanna get everything built before I go down

quick terrace
#

so yeah that would be 8

modest pagoda
#

k, I can drop stuff then

flat totem
#

btw, is the seamoth in bz?

modest pagoda
#

no

#

theres a land seamoth ish though

quick terrace
#

the Seatruck is the replacement for the Seamoth

modest pagoda
#

also, wheres water in CC?(crystal caverns)

flat totem
#

I will miss my seamoth :*(

modest pagoda
quick terrace
#

Cyclops definitely has a lot more features but yeah there are a few shared aspects

stoic surge
#

I like the Seatruck, I would even say it's my new favorite

quick terrace
#

hey Kaveta

modest pagoda
#

I like the snowfox a lot though

stoic surge
modest pagoda
#

idk which ones my favorite

quick terrace
#

I enjoy the modularity of the Seatruck, although I have to say the Cyclops is still easily my favourite Subnautica vehicle

#

you can just do a lot more with it than the Seatruck

stoic surge
quick terrace
#

someone needs to make a mod that allows you to build inside it, would make it the Seatruck better

#

and yep I did change my pfp

#

had the Rhett one for a long time so I decided to give it a switch finally

stoic surge
quick terrace
#

lol

stoic surge
#

Welp I must log out a while, I have my grand-daughter's birthday party to go to

#

guys i have a idea

#

large room upgrades- a buildible concle for a large room tha includes a layout of the large room and a uograde fabruicator || FABRICATOR INCLUDES: moonpool uograde: turns 1/4 of the large room into a moonpoll that can hold singular seaturck or prawn suit | power upgrade: adds a littyle expansuion to the outside of the large room that gives 100 more power storage for the entire base | observer upgrade. has a glass pipe going througha bit of the room wich allow fish to automaticly enter (can be upgraded for size to fit creatures lke for example warper size.)

#

ik they wont add it b ut if anyone wants to try and mod to make it happen go for it :p

eternal garnet
#

Seems likely :p What's a concle? that's not a word

vital turret
#

laggy keyboard

#

basicly the thing that you install in the moonpoll room to upgrade seamoth ect

#

but upgrades for the large room instead ;p

#

and if anyone wants to make it happen id be happy to help and you dont need to credit me for it ethier โค๏ธ

modest pagoda
#

uh, wheres good nickel?

vital turret
#

in below zero i think the best p-lace to find it is those little caves in the crustal caves

#

they have gold, nickel, some kyanite depopsits

#

good minerals

modest pagoda
#

anywhere without more shadows?

vital turret
#

LOL

#

the mine with all the prawn suit fragments

eternal garnet
vital turret
#

thats good mining to

modest pagoda
#

k thanks

eternal garnet
#

no, the mine doesn't have nickel

vital turret
#

i havnt played in a while so i forgor most stuff

eternal garnet
#

Also: pin a nickel item (unpin all), and find some monkeys. They do give nickel, and can see your pins

modest pagoda
#

good thing htat its there, I left my prawn there

vital turret
#

i honestly liked the players original actor

#

they're fighting in a pack

eternal garnet

You must taste better than me

echo latch
#

why didnt they add the stasis rifle to below zero?

eternal garnet

are you in the void? this isnt normal

echo latch
eternal garnet

there's only 2 shadows in the purple part, and 2 in the other part

bold monolith
echo latch

since im on switch i cant get rid of them

eternal garnet
#

Well, I congratulate you on having good taste

echo latch

and i cant use the grapple drill combo either :(

#

no amount of listening to Dont hold your breath can fix this

#

YES

#

I made it out

#

With my seatruck at 10 hp

modest pagoda
#

im wondering, should I make a base in crystal caverns?

echo latch
#

I made an outpost

#

thats why i was there

echo latch
modest pagoda
#

I heard mini base, Ill add that to my list

echo latch
#

I heard deathwish, good luck

modest pagoda
#

I'm wondering, should I build a base on a lily pad or in purple vents and tree spires area?

echo latch
#

i live in purple vents, next to delta station

#

So my opinion is biased

#

But i would think livin on a lily pad wud be cool

modest pagoda
#

k

#

imma have two moonpools in the water that lead up to a main base

eternal garnet
#

the water filters also need water

modest pagoda
#

they can go in moonpools right?

echo latch
#

im praying to god that my game doesnt crash

#

yes

modest pagoda
#

and also spicy salads are only slightly overpowered

echo latch
#

boys. made it

eternal garnet

Do you guys also rebuild your subnautica base cause' you know the layout of it?

kind totem
#

Nice knowing you all playing while I canโ€™t even start a world

#

๐Ÿ™ƒ

kind totem
#

Its only stay in loading

#

I wanted to start a world
But the game said wait for the loading to end
I waited for 4 days

eternal garnet
#

that was a new game?

#

not loading a save

kind totem
#

Yes a new game

spice seal
#

what platform or game are you even having the issue on?

kind totem
#

Both games

#

And in the console for ps4 and ps5

eternal garnet
#

check device free storage. Reboot the device. try one last time, but only wait 15 min

#

it hangs on ps5?

ya you broke it somehow

kind totem
#

Bro how did i Broke it

#

Yesterday I tried lunching it again
I slept while waiting

eternal garnet
#

Don't do that. After less than 1h, stop it

#

it may wear out disks

#

in fact that might be the issue

kind totem
#

Then there the problem of creating an account in subnautica

eternal garnet
#

I think disk dead. But I can't know that for sure. And you said this was on 2 or 3 devices

kind totem
#

Tried it in 7 consoles

eternal garnet
#

...

kind totem
#

What did i do

eternal garnet
#

So the game actually works. Millions of people play it

#

I've no clue. I can't help

kind totem

๐Ÿ™ƒ๐Ÿ™ƒi want to cry

kind totem
#

I upgraded my storage to 10 tera

#

I thought that is the issue but apparently its not

flat totem
#

If you're launching from epic or steam is installed there

eternal garnet
#

it isn't steam. it's ps4 and ps5

flat totem
#

Oh

#

Does the ps store it on the main drive by default or?

kind totem
#

I donโ€™t know but if its a storage problem i have a huge storage place

flat totem
#

Idk, I would make sure all your drives have some space left

young nacelle
#

your storage is damaged?

eternal garnet
#

maybe too much in there, but I'm clueless with ps

kind totem
flat totem
#

Anyways, might be better to go to #below-zero-ps . This chat is more for the pc version or general discussion

young nacelle
#

when did it stop working? do other games work?

flat totem
# kind totem I upgraded my storage last month

You added storage right, you didn't replace the main drive? So if the ps stores saves on the main drive, and it's full, that could prevent it from making new save files. Idk I'm just going from experience on pc

you wake up in outpost zero. A meteor storm is about to break the base. Sam works in an orbiting station

You do find Alan also. Stuff gets weird

That sounds like a bit of a mess

eternal garnet

you can of couse find playthru's, from summer 2020

Like they had 2 ideas and used them both

But after the writer quit they went back and only kept going with 1 idea

Was the old story worse or better than the new one in your opinion?

it was good... but a bit of a mess yes

there was a bad guy!

Oh?

oh and Alan threatens us before transfer

man, this stupid bug again...anyone get the glitch where the sound gets stuck and loops repeatedly until it fixes itself?

it's happened a lot more in BZ than in the original, just now I got it right in the title screen as I clicked play on my one save

#

very annoying

#

Ah ... never happened to my Switch version

quick terrace
#

it happened in SN1 a couple times, funny how it only started happening as I was recording me beating my hardcore save...

modest pagoda
young nacelle
#

one great thing bz fixed is the terrain renderization

quick terrace
#

yeah

#

terrain in general can still be buggy sometimes though

#

a while ago my Prawn went right through the floor of the Deep Twisty Bridges, but I suppose that was after a problem happened where my world refused to save

another glitch that I get a lot, is base colour getting messed up

particularly when I make it black

#

do you get that problem in Switch or no?

stoic surge
#

I'm used to my bases and vehicles being default colors, if I start changing them, it would only be a distraction for me

hmm, interesting

#

I can't type today lol

stoic surge

The only color I change is the beacons and signal markers, I make them green so I can see them ... getting old sux

# quick terrace I can't type today lol

my friend and I came up with a term we like to call "fyping", which manages to mean "fast typing" while also somehow simultaneously showing how you could misspell typing when doing so too fast ๐Ÿ˜‚

I try to avoid that, but it's a cool word play

modest pagoda

#

If I were to try typing on a phone my messages would look alot worse

so in order to have dark rooms you also have to sacrifice any powered things in that room

#

which is why I really wish you could turn only the lights off

modest pagoda
quick terrace
#

sounds good

#

I just love the vibe of the Tree Spires, probably mostly due to the fact that it was the one biome in the game that I hadn't heard of or gotten spoiled (even in a minor way) before I played the game so it was finally something new and exciting, that coupled with seeing the full grand scale of the adult Ventgarden for the first time complete with the stunning music that plays, just gave me such a first experience and it's been my favourite biome ever since

stoic surge
#

I just hate a couple shrimp dudes hang out there

modest pagoda
#

I drive my seatruck into them if theyโ€™re at a appropriate health

#

And if I can see them

stoic surge
#

My Seatruck just loves the cryptosuchus, I'm bashing them constantly

quick terrace
#

the Chelicerates, although annoying at times look so freaking ominous swimming their circles around the Ventgarden, (especially when below them) and the opening portion of the Cathedral soundtrack (the one that plays in the Tree Spires) fits perfectly with the Chelicerates patrolling I realized

stoic surge
#

It also plays in the passage I mentioned ... Have you been there?

modest pagoda
#

Which direction was it from pilots?

stoic surge
quick terrace
#

ah that area

#

yeah I used to drive my Seatruck through there going to and from the Crystal Caves

It's not a large passage, but has enough minerals to warrant at least one expedition

I'm getting constant periods where my fps will drop to probably around 10-15 or something bad like that for sometimes over a minute, then it will be fine again

#

it's making it very hard to enjoy myself

#

I haven't even done anything in this save that would cause it to lag like that, I only have a couple of small bases so far

stoic surge
quick terrace
#

Firefox, Brave browser, Discord and file explorer (and Steam of course)

#

but that's pretty normal, I have those up all the time and closing them never seems to improve the performance of any of my games when they get like this

#

it's quite frustrating

stoic surge
#

You may need to shut down the browsers, they may be using some system resources

quick terrace
#

I'll try that although I'm not sure if it will help

stoic surge
#

If not, you can always start em back up

quick terrace
#

my best guess is that it's just my computer

#

this thing with games has been happening on and off for quite a while now

Then you can get it to run a defrag, I think it's from the 'my PC' folder, right click on the hard drive to open the menu

I just realized, its very easy to find pilots base when you know where and what to look for

quick terrace
# stoic surge It should be under 'properties'

alright I do see an "optimize" button under "optimize and defragment drive", but before I do it I'd just like to know what exactly it does, so I don't end up accidentally deleting something somehow

stoic surge
#

It takes a long time tho, it would be best to start it when you're going to bed, hopefully will be done the next morning

quick terrace
#

I'm reading some articles on it right now

#

it says you shouldn't do it if you have a SSD, which I think my laptop might

#

I have to see but I'm pretty sure it does

stoic surge
#

I think that's what your screenshot had on it ... Yes, more reading about it is good, you may want the 'optimize' instead

quick terrace
stoic surge
#

I think I've told you all I remember already, lol

quick terrace
#

well I'll keep reading, man I really wish there was just an easy solution to these lag problems

#

they've just been getting worse, sometimes I think the only way to fix them is just a new and better PC with a proper graphics card

stoic surge
#

Play on the Switch, you'll get used to lag, lol

quick terrace
#

can you see FPS on Switch?

stoic surge
#

Not in BZ, the menu was disabled

#

The OG runs around 30 fps tho

quick terrace
#

that's pretty standard for some of mine

#

which is probably why even 60 seems so nice and smooth ๐Ÿ˜› even though I know people who will complain about anything less than 100 being used to their super high end PCs

#

which is kinda dumb as anything beyond 60 you really can't tell the difference

stoic surge
#

My vision is poor enough that 30 looks just fine, that may be why the Switch version works for me

#

Well it's getting late here, I must off to bed

quick terrace
#

I'd be happy with 30 if my game didn't constantly have periods where it drops to around half of that for several minutes on end

So I've not played the game long but I've got to a point where:

  • I have most of the talls needed early game.
  • Running out of room in my pod
  • I've go tthe habitat builder

Should I start to build my own base?
I have also just got the vehicle bay thing.
What vehicles can you get early game that are decent

modest pagoda
#

seatruck is the only one really, and yes, make a base, I think scans are at delta island and pilots base

high bridge
#

I went to the bit where it said 'Pilot last seen here' but found nothing. Should I look a bit closer?

eternal garnet
#

to find the pilot, I recommend truck + one depth upgrade

modest pagoda
#

yeah, its in the cave system below

#

if youre lucky you can go with only seatruck, but I would advise against it

eternal garnet
#

It's deep. Depth of target is ||360m||

modest pagoda
#

not again

#

how do you move him?

high bridge
#

okay, so get a seatruck and get more depth

#

and where would you recommend I build my base?

modest pagoda

twisty bridges

So alan mentioned some bridge like structures and that I would find something there, did he mean the deep twisty bridges?

He mentioned them after getting data from the sat

yes, and no. Note you can have more than one panel. Put them on the roof, or nearby on the ground

Other power sources available later

Biopower available now, probably. In a multipurpose room

eternal garnet

bioreactor is biopower, yes. You don't need it, but it equals 3-4 panels

high bridge
#

alright thank you

eternal garnet
#

And will work deeper. PAnels reduce power at depth

high bridge
#

okay, thanks

#

is there like an amount of power you need for certain things

eternal garnet
#

not really, but there are some power hogs: the water filter machine, the scanner room

#

And battery charging, when you use them

high bridge

alright, thansks

eternal garnet
