-{{SubnauticaLink}}'''Temperature''' is an environmental game mechanic that, like [[Radiation]], affects the player. In [[File:Exosuit_Thermal_Reactor_Module.png|thumb]]most circumstances, extreme heat is harmful to the player. However, unlike Radiation, the player can also harness heat sources for [[Energy]] applications.

-==Heat Sources==
-High Temperatures are typically generated by underwater volcanic activity. Such sources of heat include [[Lava Geyser]]s, which can be found in a few biomes, and Thermal Vents, which can be found in some of the deeper biomes. Certain biomes are also quite hot, such as the [[Inactive Lava Zone]] and [[Lava Lakes]]. Direct contact with lava will instantly kill the player.
-==Heat Protection==
-While cold temperatures will not hurt the player, temperatures above 50°C will. The UI will indicate that the player is too hot by showing glowing orange lines on the edges of the screen. However, the player's thermal resistance increases to 70°C if they're wearing the [[Reinforced Dive Suit]]. Note that water near lava in the lava zones is significantly hotter than elsewhere within the biome, and is above the 70°C that the suit can protect against.
-To survive any more extreme Temperature will require the use of a vehicle, particularly the [[Prawn Suit]]. The Prawn Suit is especially useful for collecting resources near heat sources that are too dangerous for a player on their own. However, direct contact with lava will damage the Prawn Suit.
-==Energy Production==
-Heat can be used to generate energy for [[Seabases]] through the [[Thermal Plant]]; because these are external generators that have to be placed at specific locations to work (any source above 25°C, which can be found in the HUD of the [[Prawn Suit]] or on the [[Thermal Plant]]), the Seabase needs to be close, or otherwise connected via [[Power Transmitter]]s.
-Prawn Suits can generate energy from heat using the [[Prawn Suit Thermal Reactor|Thermal Reactor]] upgrade (any source above 30°C). The Cyclops is also capable of this, if the vehicle has the [[Cyclops Thermal Reactor Module]] installed (any source above 35°C at the engines).
