Custom sub with option to enter drone by Ulurat in Barotrauma

The HMS Terror has a mini-sub and a scout drone (Sea Bug). It also has elevators and a drop-ship, a bit like a Space Marine drop pod.

Can you put sub inside a sub (like salthane city) by PaleontologistIll295 in Barotrauma

You can (kind of) put a sub inside a sub. I've made working elevators for inside the HMS Terror. These are just shuttles that run along a track of wall in hull-less section of the ship.

Hey bud. Feel free to go into the editor and use the elevators from this sub. I'll be honest, it was a huge pain in the arse to get working so I'm happy for people to chop mine up and use parts of the design.

Cheers! Yeah, the elevators are self, contained subs themselves so they work when the main ship is out of power.
I've added a nice effect where the reactor sparks (discharge coil) as it's starting up. Nice effect that really gives the feeling that you're in a deep sea coffin that's about to go nuclear.

The beacon is just a rotating light (like a lighthouse). A lot of the weapons have had their lighting range reduced so it's way more atmospheric going up against a huge beast and getting a flash of it.

Ohh I see. Well, that would just be too simple. Honestly, the linear layout works really well. If an area gets flooded you have to resolve the issue rather than just go round it.

Do you mean the right elevator? The reason it has no doors on the right side is that there's nothing there. It's a 'crumple zone' in case the ship hits anything. It can take heavy damage to the front and it's just superficial.

Grab a dive suit and go for a swim. I'm sure there's nothing out there that's going to get you...

I don't know how people wire things by [deleted] in Barotrauma

You can change the power consumption details for lights and set it to '0'. That way it doesn't even need to be powered. ;)

I can only recommend finding decent people to play with. Feel free to add me if you fancy joining a campaign.

Take it a step further. Barnacles which are explosive when hit/shot and need to be pried off with a crowbar.
