Observatory (Subnautica): Difference between revisions

Revision as of 18:24, 14 July 2015

The Observatory is a Seabase module.

It is constructed with the Builder and placed on top of a Foundation. It is possible to build off the foundation or remove the foundation afterwards. It can be rotated before placing it by pressing Q or E.

Purpose

The Observatory's primary use is to observe life forms in their natural habitat.

Recipe

×6

Expansion

Hatches can be placed on the single side-panel, the end-panels, and both the floor and ceiling.
Windows can be placed on the side-panel, the end-panels, and the ceiling.
Ladders can be placed on the floor and ceiling when there is an adjacent seabase module to connect.
Reinforcements can be placed on the side-panel.
The T-Corridor can be expanded with other modules from its three end-panels.

-== Description ==
 [[File:Observatory.png|thumb]]
+The '''Observatory''' is a [[Seabases|Seabase]] module.
-The '''Observatory '''is an in-development [[Seabases|Sea-base]] Module scheduled for release with the next patch and is as of right now is not available in any way in either stable or experimental builds.
+It is constructed with the [[Builder]] and placed on top of a [[Foundation]]. It is possible to build off the foundation or remove the foundation afterwards. It can be rotated before placing it by pressing Q or E.
-== Construction ==
-It will be place-able with a [[builder]] and will attach on one of four sides to either regular or the unimplemented corridors. given the inability of players to place modules on windows it is unlikely that anything will be able to be placed inside the observatory, unless dropped. From the appearance of the WIP model on Sketchfab it does not appear that [[Hatch|hatches]] can be placed on the top or bottom of the Observatory, though they may be able to be built on the sides..
 == Purpose ==
 The '''Observatory's''' primary use is to observe [[Life Forms|life forms]] in their natural habitat.

-n.b. Given the room flooding mechanic and the implementation of Base Bulkheads in future, a player could pheasably deliberately flood the observatory, seal it with a two-hatch corridor, and then fill it with fish in order to use it as an over-sized [[aquarium]]. However without the ability to test this method it remains a theory.
+==Expansion==
+*[[Hatch|Hatches]] can be placed on the single side-panel, the end-panels, and both the floor and ceiling.
+*[[Window|Windows]] can be placed on the side-panel, the end-panels, and the ceiling.
+*[[Ladder|Ladders]] can be placed on the floor and ceiling when there is an adjacent seabase module to connect.
+*[[Reinforcement|Reinforcements]] can be placed on the side-panel.
+*The '''T-Corridor''' can be expanded with other modules from its three end-panels.
