📋 About This Mod

Do you think that ion technologies are useless because you get them at the end of the game and don’t have time to fully use them? This mod solves this problem by adding a 3 ion batteries and 2 powercells as well as ion cube storage facility (on the border with the dead zone). Ionic technology blueprints remain locked! This mod also adds small Aurora fragments near the storage facility, in which you can find some useful blueprints. I think a more detailed description is needed:

  • []Fragments:

  • []Nuclear reactor

    []Exosuit

    []Exosuit grapping arm

    []Exosuit propulsion cannon

    []Statis rifle

    []Cyclop's engine

    []Power transmitter (yes, very rare fragment)

    []Thermal reactor

    []Led light

    []Powercell charging station

    []Workbench

    []One cyclop's hull fragment

  • []Resources

  • []A little more magnetite (and drillable)

    []A little more lithium

    []A little more sandstone

    []A little more slate

    []Diamonds

  • []Creatures

  • []More reapers

    []More warpers

    []Cave crawlers

    []Stellar Thalassacean (De-Extinction)

    []Filtorbs (De-Extinction)

    []Jelly spinner (De-Extinction)

    []Twisteel (De-Extinction)

    []Clown pincher (De-Extinction)

  • []Databoxes

  • []Repulsion cannon

    []Large aquarium

    []Swim charge fins

    Some bugfixes, added some decorations

    WARNING AND BUGS!1. When creating the mod, I took some creatures from the "De-Extinction" mod. Therefore, I recommend installing this. But I think that without them my mod will work, since I used the fauna from them to make the biome a little more alive

    2.  If you use SubnauticaRandomizer, some items may not load (I used to randomize data boxes, when loading a new save they did not load). Also the terminal wouldn't load, I don't know how this is related to SubnauticaRandomizer, but when I removed this mod, everything worked. Also data boxes may be duplicated.

    3.  Some creatures can stand still (not just me), restarting the game helped me.
