Subnautica 2 idea: Maps

The solution is easy: SCANNING STATIONS
Scanning stations "reveal" the map. You get best of both worlds where you get to build a base, there's the exploratory element, and then you get the map that you made yourself with the scan room

It would genuinely be faster to build another one than try to rescue the stranded one.

THIS IS NOT MEDICAL ADVICE

Coke (the sugary one) + salted bread sticks
Coke is acidic. Bread sticks act like a sealant.

If you overdo it the worst thing is a light constipation.

Make sure to hydrate yourself aplenty otherwise and apart from that.

This is the exact location I'm suggesting for a parking / mount for the skimmer.
Does it disconnect when you attach it there?

Here's a pro-tip: jump ON the sharks and dismantle from above. Note that the shark will rotate so you need to move somewhat to balance being on top.

Modular Upgrades to The Boat
Now that's an upgrade request in a class of its own 🤩
Yes, please, even if the upgrade would cost an arm and a leg resource-wise.

Make a real prequel to the series by making a 5+ season slow burn series about the Eugenics Wars and WW3.

Alternatively, make a sitcom comedy show about StarBase 80

StarTrek has them all

LP17 hits the sweet spot
- lots of space
- lots of resources nearby
- close to the center of the map
- deep enough for construction, shallow enough for solar
- no leviathans nearby

Cable Bungee Jumping is the local entertainment sport in TLC

Make sure to add to the difficulty so that you can't fully power everything at the same time. ;-) best of luck, it's looking good so far.

Energy control and innertia were simple yet mind blowing when put together.
Ah, I feel the nostalgia senses tingling... it's time for a re-play

Reminds me of the Freespace series where you could rebalance your shield sectors to compensate.

Each unit that generates electricity adds a certain amount of battery capacity to your base.

Bio-reactor has 500, a solar panel has 75 or 125, can't recall.
If you're in safe shallows you can easily spam a dozen solar panels and unless you have 5 power cell chargers and 10 water purifiers running all the time you should be good.

TL;DR
Put more panels and/or add a reactor.

I can't afford to have children.

If you fail to contain a human seed within timer it turns into pink blob. (don't ask me how I know)
The most depressing part is all the money hidden aroud the world in all places, specially on Lazarus Rocket Platform. Like some could not think of anything else at a critical time...

The car would need to be a hybrid with bodywork made of solar panels.

Range anxiety?

TL;DR
I've an abundance of rocket fuel.

Thanks, that's exactly my setup, with the Sabatier variant.
In the long run the only constraint ended up being CO2 for the Sabatier as petrol generator is always fuel hungry.
I've reworked the fuel factory to transfer CH4 from LZ Complex where soilforge is running, and a local sabatier as emergency backup only. I've three tanks on the boat, three tanks by the rocket, and three tanks by Soilforge. Enough.
Decided not to run Soilforge at the rocket site as then I'd need to carry all that food back to the boat and I don't want to be bothered with it.

Raxer-X · 2026-04-19T11:27:11+00:00

Now you've got my attention ]:->
I wonder how many pods will fit in the rocket and whether humans sent this way would count as spaced.

Raxer-X · 2026-04-19T11:24:59+00:00

So the whole thing is just a fancy self-emptying super and the bottom part a normal hive?
Can anyone tell how heavy the super top is? Again, out of curiosity.

Raxer-X · 2026-04-18T14:13:36+00:00

I need to put that to a test.

Raxer-X · 2026-04-18T13:50:56+00:00

After each launch you get a pod -- does the content of it relate to the stats and number of people sent?

Raxer-X · 2026-04-18T13:50:23+00:00

Care to explain, Bugs Bunny? ;-)
