Appearance

Omega is composed of two Multipurpose Rooms and a Large Room, all connected by a modified Basic Compartment with a Hatch and the Large Room joined directly to its midsection. The Large Room and Multipurpose Rooms cannot be scanned. Outside, there is a lone Foundation with nothing on it. The compartment contains a Medical Kit Fabricator, but it does not function and cannot be scanned.

The right Multipurpose Room has a scannable Glass Dome roof, and contains a variety of plants and planters (though the Plant Shelves here cannot be scanned), as well as a Water Filtration Machine and a Data Box with the Control Room blueprint.

The left Multipurpose Room is the base's living quarters, and is divided into three sections using Large Room Partitions: two bedrooms and a small entry area with Benches, a Coffee Vending Machine, Vending Machine and Trash Can. The left-hand bedroom contains a Jukebox Disk, and both contain scannable Picture Frames.

The Large Room is behind a scannable Bulkhead with a keypad lock. It serves as the main lab and contains various equipment, including Desks, a couple of Batteries on a Wall Shelf (though these cannot be picked up), a Power Cell Charger, a Nuclear Reactor, a Nuclear Waste Disposal, and a large table-like piece of equipment directly in front of the entrance to the room. The Outpost Omega Research Notes can be found on a pedestal that is part of this device, though they do not spawn until the Communications Tower has been repaired.

The bulkhead door to the main room requires a code to be opened: the code is 1679. It is normally given when approaching the base after repairing the Communications Tower, though it still works even if the player has not yet been given the code.

The base has internal lighting and a functioning oxygen supply, but all equipment inside except the door's keypad counts as powered-down and cannot be used.

Trivia

• The former name for the Research Base Omega was Research Base Cappa. The Cappa incarnation had a somewhat different structure including a Scanner Room, two Observatories and a Moonpool, and had a completely flooded interior. Nothing within it could be scanned.
  • During earlier builds of Below Zero there was a base in the Thermal Spires called Research Base Omega which was cut for unknown reasons.
  • Before the Methane Ice Caves biome was cut from the game, a second copy of Research Base Cappa could be found there as the first iteration of Marguerit Maida's Base.
• Research Base Omega contains a Centrifuge, which is cut content from Subnautica.
• The functionless single Foundation in front of the base, present in both the Cappa and Omega versions of the base, is most likely a relic of the cut Recharge Platform.
