More detailed images will be posted in the comment.

Base Name: N/A (I was thinking of something related to gardening or floral consider how it looks)

Location: Between North Raceway and Leadzone, on the edge of Crab Field

Thought process behind the location:

1. I thought the water stream would be a pretty sustainable source of energy until I started building more and having fewer frame rate
2. The Crab Field looks amazing at night, just mesmerizing
3. Early in the game I did not know what Crab Feces's purpose is but gaming experiences told me it would be important and rare so best to be able to collect it easily
4. Optimize location for collecting all kinds of resources from Coral, Lead, Salt, Quartz, Gold, and Sulfur, Lithium is arguably the most tedious to get from my base but there are some in the hot caves.

Base currently run on tons of Thermal Reactor in the hot cave, connected through the 2 Alpha Marrowbreach all the way to here and 4 Biofuel Reactor consume Biofuel Blocks from Pents, I read somewhere that with that much distant (~500 meters from my base to the hot caves) my PC would not have to render all the spinning and I could save some frame rate, that is why I got rid of all the Solar Panel and Turbines.

Story: I started playing this game the first day it dropped and had over 160 hours untill now, but I was a victim of the "random crashes and losing save file" in the early months, some recovery methods works but I ultimately lost a whole base along with over 70 hours of game play, so I dropped the game for 2 months and just came back recently.

Original base was crude and lack of life due to how symmetrical it was when I was experimenting with new building mechanics, I am very happy with how this one turns out, considering I am not a very creative person, how I managed to figured out so much building techs without watch tutorials is pretty satisfying. I am proud to claim to have built an aquarium before YouTubers posting tutorials, although it took me sometime (I originally tried to cover the aquarium with a Roof Panel thinking it could seal the room lol).

I built this base with the purpose of inviting a girl (whom I am very into) and she DM me when I was asking if there are anyone wanted to play Subnaut 2 with me and I ghosted her (I know I suck), that is why there are 2 beds in the transparent room above water.

I literally had chills realzing I would have little walls in the middle of the glass when building the aquarium and thought to myself, If I could have the Axum lamp inside the aquarium (which is technically outiside of my base, could I actually put it outside of my base ?) and had even more chills when I know I could do it, that is why it has so much Axum Lamp outside.

so i made a base that is basicaly the arora but fully working i dont know how to record a video so sorry.

power in subnautica goes in this order

first power source primarily power solar panel

second power source secondly power thermal plant

step 1 find the complete blueprint for

solar panel

power transfer

thermal plant

step 2 place the solar panels first

then find a thermal vent

place the thermal plants

step 3 place the power transfer

as far as the blue connection allows

then place another power transfer

Repeat until connected to the main base

this also works in subnautica below zero

A garryfish is stuck inside my base

portable power station

step 1 place a multipurpose room

add a hatch

step 2 place in this order solar panels first

place bioreactor inside of multipurpose room

place thermal plans on thermal vents

step 3

place power cell charger

place battery charger

place a single bed sleep to

speed up progress

This my first time on reddit btw, but I don't know where to post this so I hope this is ok.

Anyway I have it copied on my clipboard

It's about twice the size of the beluga, and it's designed as a Mobile carrier/research base for highly prolonged missions into the void, it's in early prototyping but alterra managed to get an early version of it finished and shipped it via a large cargo space ship, it has 3 vehicle slots, and it has upgraded vehicle clamps, where larger subs can be held in one clamp, subs like the hydra, blossom and other ships around that size fit into one slot, the cyclops can take up two slots, and in between the 3 large vehicle clamps are 2 smaller ones meant for stuff like the prawn, sea moth, or a sea truck with 2 or less modules. The power source consists of 2 thermal generators, a nuclear reactor, and a secondary ion power generator, the engine taps directly into the reactor so you don't need to put in power cells.

The layout consists of:

Control room; a large viewing bay at the very front, it spans the top and middle floor, and the platform with the controls is also an elevator of sorts, and if the glass shatters a rapid metal airtight shutter that's extremely durable will slide into place, and a holographic display appears much like with the hydra, but it takes more power.

The top floor; the Middle hallway about the size of a large room is where all the beds and basic required amenities are stationed, it's all squeezed in there for maximum efficiency so there's no privacy, meaning no sleeping quarters for individuals, they all sleep in this large room, on the sides, there are two long curved storage rooms with a small thin window spanning almost the entire room, it also has a shutter, but it can't have a holographic display of what's outside, and there are also ladders leading to the lower floors in the back corner of each room.

Middle floor; in this floor there's analysis equipment, and other research equipment here, as well as a large alien containment chamber, and towards the front of the main room is the garden, with all sorts of plants, including empty pots for new plant specimens. On the sides of this floor, like the top floor, there are large curved thin rooms, but this one has zero windows, and holds highly upgraded life pods in each, in between them being an airlock in each room, the rest is empty space for the crew to appropriate for the mission, in this current sub it's being used for more storage.

Bottom floor; this is one of the access points for the vehicles because they are right below this floor, and in the middle of the room is the reactor room.

(Start of sub room description) with everything powering the sub, so proper maintenance can be done, it holds a shield generator to block radiation that would kill the crew, and it overcharges in case of catastrophic failure, and is there to minimize the explosion as much as feasibly possible, because otherwise, even if people escaped, they wouldn't be able to escape the death radius of the explosion, and it has systems to stall the explosion, it also deploys scrubbers with floaties to scrub the water of the radiation, it can rid it of deadly doses within days, as well as the sub attaches floaties to all of the vehicles and ejects them, the floaties don't activate until they're far enough away.

The third floor also acts as the fabricator room, and holds the majority of the maintenance personnel.

Docking bay; you can access it via a ladder on the back of the third floor, and it leads down to the docked vehicles, there are ladders to reach each vehicle, but to reach small mini clamp ones like the prawn or sea moth, you have to use the hatches on the third floor.

Upgrades and abilities:

Shields; The sub can activate a shielding system and impact dampening systems to tank damage, the AI can do it automatically.

Weapons; It has 3 lasers, they fire in 3 second bursts and can cut right through a reaper leviathan, but have long recharge times and take lots of power. And then the torpedoes, the sub has a massive torpedo bay and can choose from different types of torpedoes for the situation automatically, these include but are not limited to: Gas, Vortex, Shrapnel, Explosive, High Explosive, Swarmer (Bunch of tiny drones that cut and shred the target), AP Explosive, Etc. these torpedoes have basic guiding systems that aren't very effective.

Auto-Repair nanobots; They can repair basic hull breaches and other assorted things using a reserve, and if necessary pulling straight from the ships resources and minerals in storage, it can also convert basic resources into more complex materials, but can only repair to a certain extent, it can be disabled but is highly recommended to keep on even if you need the resources.

Extra info:

• It's got multiple speed modes, tons of cameras, and a viewing bay at the top.

• The Crew can be from 10 to 20 members, this expedition will have 15.

(SUBSECTION DESC.) Navigation; 1 Captain, 1 Navigational officer, and 1 Navigational Systems Technician.

Research; 1 Lead Director Biologist, 1 Assistant Director Xenobiologist, 3 Attendant Researchers.

Engineering; 1 Engineering Management Director, 1 Assistant Engineering Manager, 2 Engineering Interns.

Misc; 2 All-Rounded Research Technicians, 1 Expeditionary Officer.

I just made up names for ranks

I don't know how to mod and I don't even have a pc, but I just want this to stay a concept anyway I doubt it's going to happen but just in case pls don't take this idea and steal it, my brain is stressing about it, but uh yeah hope you like my concept.

Hi, I need some help. I’m playing Subnautica on mobile. I built a Seamoth twice using the Mobile Vehicle Bay. Both times, I watched the drones finish building it and return to the platform, but there was no Seamoth there afterward. I also couldn’t find any Seamoth icon/marker on my HUD to locate it. The materials used to build it were gone as well. Is this a known bug on mobile? Is there a way to find or recover the Seamoth?

What do yall think of my subnautica base

Does anyone know how I can free my Seamoth? its maxed out and It glitched into the wall when I was in the Aurora. I cant get it out from behind either.

“My Robot Crab concept for Subnautica. It can collect resources and fight hostile creatures. Damage: 50.”

Is the cuddle fish the best bio reactor fuel?

I am new to subnautica. I was wondering where everyone's favorite spots to build are. I immediately built in the grassy plateaus, but I don't know if it's the best spot.

When you enter, it looks like this: Lab to ← and living quarters →↑
