📋 About This Mod

These fish have been swimming around in these metals and minerals - now you can extract it from them.

I would strongly recommend using  Respawning Creatures by  gurrenm3 so that you don't wipe out your fish population  ;)

Description

Extract Minerals From Fish adds a new “Fish Extractions” category to the Fabricator that allows you to process fish into mineral resources. Different fish correspond to different materials based on their biome, rarity, and progression throughout the game.

The mod is fully configurable through a simple

config.txtfile, allowing players to customize:

  • []Which fish produce which minerals [/]

    []How many fish are required [/]

    []How many minerals are produced [/]

The DEFAULT is set to 3 fish per ore/mineral for balance - but feel free to modify the included config.txt file to cheat as much as you want.

Designed specifically for Subnautica: Below Zero using modern BepInEx + Nautilus modding methods.

These are the DEFAULT recipes:

Fish Type, Cost#, Resource, Produced#

Bladderfish,3,Titanium,1

ArcticPeeper,3,Copper,1

Boomerang,3,Quartz,1

Hoopfish,3,Silver,1

Spinefish,3,Lead,1

DiscusFish,3,Gold,1

Brinewing,3,Lithium,1

ArrowRay,3,Magnetite,1

FeatherFishRed,3,AluminumOxide,1

NootFish,3,Nickel,1

SpinnerFish,3,Diamond,1

Triops,3,Kyanite,1
