🎯 Tips & Tricks
Place the mod files in the Subnautica game directory, typically under 'Subnautica/Mods' or use a mod manager like QModManager if required.
Since it's new game plus, start a new game plus save to see the added items and base.
Check the floating islands biome for the new base — it's not in the starting area.

- Last updated April 2024 — could break with future game updates
