I basically just made a troll time capsule - an ion battery, two pieces of lead, one copper and a fish. Along with a message that read something random like "You'll need all this later, but don't forget to bring two of the red ones as well".

I just started playing this, after only playing it ~2 years ago during Early Access. I didn't realize time capsules are from other players. In that case, I have to thank whoever left me a full complement of Seamoth upgrades right next to pod 19, you just saved me the 45 minutes of scouring for resources I was about to do. I got really worried during some of those early release updates, but everything in the game feels about the same difficulty or easier. And solar panels are actually good now.

My first time capsule contained a single useless seed. Joke's on you, time capsule guy, I planted it anyway.

All of these capsules are still better than the first one I found filled with potato chips, weird fish fanfic, and a picture of a bone shark in a dress.

I just managed to build the HUD chip with the one piece of magnetite I found in the Jellyshroom cave and holy balls does that make my life so much easier. Time to start building some remote sensor bases.

Re: beacons, there is a wreck near a big thermal vent in safe shallows (near a creepvine area too) that has a bunch of them inside to scan. It has an openable door and I think a repairable panel for another door too. Didn’t need the laser cutter, I know that.

Do Ghost Leviathans, Crabsquids, or Reapers respawn if you manage to goop them with your drill arm? I made a base in the thermals in the Grand Reef and this Ghost Leviathan just sits outside of it and rams my Seamoth whenever I enter or exit it. More of a nuisance than a threat, really, but I still want him dead. It’s strange how terrified I used to be of Ghost Leviathans/Reapers/et al and then after a few attacks I realized they aren’t really anything major. Now they are a nuisance that I just try to avoid, and if they attack its not the end of the world. Warpers are the real bastards. I also just got to the ILZ last night. I’m playing with filmic filter and could barely see anything. People who have brought their Cyclops in there: did the Sea Emperor give you any trouble? All the warpers were loving my poo poo up last night in my Prawn to the point where I almost died several times, and I really don’t want to go back there without a Cyclops or something quicker than the Prawn to maneuver around with. I grabbed my Kyratite and bailed as soon as I could. It’s weird knowing that I am probably nearing the end of the game even though I haven’t set foot in probably 40% of the map yet. Are the torpedoes worth getting? I assumed they were just ways to get Sandsharks and smaller fish to leave you alone, but if they are fatal and work against Crabsquids I’m about to start a freaking torpedo factory in my base.

built my cyclops and I feel like Poseidon. Any way to make it self sufficient food and water wise? Can I put in a water filter, alien containment and stuff? What about another power reactor?

What about another power reactor? Growbeds for plants and eventually the thermal reactor upgrade to recharge the power cells in warm water is the best you can get for self-sufficiency. Which is quite a long way, to be honest.

Gf was a tester of the game and asked me to write bad fan fiction for one. It was surprisingly hard to write it under 1000 characters... so much so there was 2 more ' chapters' worth. So...Uh... my bad Though researching for it made me buy the game and I'm loving it. Having the thermal power generation for the Cyclops is a godsend in the lower depths. That and the force field.

A few minutes playing with the Cyclops and I was already also thinking that someone needs to make a spaceship game with similar mechanics. edit: I would love it if I could pick a custom music track to play when I hit the engine power switch on the Cyclops

What about another power reactor? I don't know if they nerfed it but a single pot with a Lantern Tree in your cyclops was more than enough to fulfill your food and water needs during early access.

Yeah, they nerfed that. Plant a bed of Marble Melons instead for all your food & water needs. Lantern Trees are pretty tho, so i planet a few of them in my Cyclops anyway.

Lantern trees are still my go-to for water. I eat the 3 melons, 4 potato and 8 or 10 lantern fruit and I'm completely set. I haven't thrown up horribly or whatever that pre-1.0 nerf was yet, but I'm also not pushing it too hard either.

Bhodi posted:I'm not in game but I'm pretty sure melons only give +3ish water. No melons give about 10, lantern fruit are what give 3. I find bulbo trees actually easier for bases cos you can just cut them a bunch and they give a lot more food/water per tree than 4 melons do. Less fiddly than melons also with being bigger. Lantern fruit are OK for food at +10 each but they have virtually no water content while bulbo trees are very good for water.

Is there a way to deal with getting stuck outside the level geometry? In the tunnel of the prawn bay of the Aurora it shoved me out of bounds and now I'm in a weird state where I'm trapped in the space between the Aurora interior and the outside. \/\/\/ Thanks. warpforward 2 put me back in the level and achievements worked after saving and restarting.

Yeah there are multiple ways via the debug console: http://subnautica.wikia.com/wiki/Debug_Console_Commands "warpme" will probably be the best bet, takes you to your last "base". Edit: Remember to save after tho, fully exit the game, start it up again and reload your save to re-enable achivements. Dongattack fucked around with this message at 02:30 on Feb 3, 2018 |

A tank full of reginalds gives you all the food and base power you need. It's easy to salt a couple reginalds for long trips and not have to worry about running back somewhere for food while clearing out wrecks. They can also give water via water filtration if you set it and forget it while out exploring. Sitting in base and grabbing the water too frequently will bottom out a single bio-reactor though, even with 1000s of energy of reginalds in the juicer.

The first time capsule I found contained six ion power cells and I had no idea what they were or what they were for so I put them in storage and when I made the Cyclops I was like ooooooooh.
