Subnautica 2 Vehicle Tips

Scan Three Tadpole Fragments

To get your first vehicle, you need to unlock and craft the Tadpole first. Begin by scanning three Tadpole Fragments to unlock both the Tadpole blueprint and the Vehicle Fabricator blueprint.

Also Unlock Upgrade Blueprints

To unlock related upgrades, you will need to locate the Scout Ray Chassis or Tadpole Haul Chassis and scan their vehicle fragments. These chassis upgrades can be crafted later to improve your Tadpole's speed, maneuverability, and overall utility.

Gather Crafting Materials

Before you can craft your first vehicle, gather all materials needed for the Vehicle Fabricator, Docking Station, and the vehicle itself.

Note!	This includes basic resources and advanced components that may need to be processed using other fabrication stations.

Build a Moonpool and Docking Station

Moonpool	Tadpole Dock

After unlocking the necessary blueprints, build a Moonpool and attach a Vehicle Docking station to your base. The Moonpool provides the foundation needed to place vehicle-related structures, while the Docking station allows you to store and recharge your vehicles.

Base Building Guide

Safe Storage for Submersibles

Building a docking station is a convenient way to maintain your vehicles and ensure they are always ready for deeper exploration and resource-gathering trips.

Maintain Vehicles with Ease

By docking a submersible such as the Tadpole, you can restore its power, keep it protected when not in use, and access it quickly before your next expedition.

Install a Vehicle Fabricator

Fabricator	Recipe

The Vehicle Fabricator is a crafting station used to craft underwater vehicles and their upgrades.

Craft Vehicles to Explore Further

Constructing a Vehicle Fabricator is important, as it allows you to expand your exploration range and customize vehicles to better handle deeper and more dangerous areas of the ocean.

Craft the Tadpole

Once you have gathered all the required materials and built the necessary structures, use the Vehicle Fabricator to craft the Tadpole.

Note!	With the Tadpole ready, you can begin venturing farther from your base and travel to new biomes with greater ease.
