Alright, let’s dive into how I managed to whip up some silicone rubber in Subnautica. It wasn’t exactly a walk in the park, lemme tell ya!
First off, I needed the darn recipe. I remember swimming around the kelp forests for what felt like forever, scanning every nook and cranny. I knew I had to find those damn fragments to unlock the blueprint. It was tedious, I’m not gonna lie, but finally, after a good hour or so, BAM! The Mobile Vehicle Bay fragment showed up. Scanning that gave me the silicone rubber recipe. Victory!
Okay, so now I had the recipe. Time to gather the ingredients. Silicone rubber needs Creepvine Seed Clusters. These things are all over the place in the Kelp Forest biomes, clinging to those big ol’ Creepvines. Getting them is pretty straightforward, just swim up and grab ’em.
Next up, the tricky part: crafting it. You need a Fabricator for this. Head back to your base (or wherever you stashed your Fabricator) and interact with it. Navigate to the “Basic Materials” section, and there it is – silicone rubber. Each one needs a single Creepvine Seed Cluster.
The actual crafting is super quick. Just chuck in the Creepvine Seed Cluster and poof, silicone rubber! Rinse and repeat until you’ve got enough. I remember needing quite a bit for my Seamoth, so I made multiple trips to the kelp forest. Gets a little boring, but hey, gotta do what you gotta do.
And that’s pretty much it. From zero to silicone rubber hero in a few simple (albeit grindy) steps. Now get out there and build something awesome!
