Scanner Room
Note: This page redirects to Scanner Station. In Subnautica 2, the functionality previously known as the Scanner Room is handled by the Scanner Station.
Overview
The Scanner Station is a critical base-building component that enables the player to detect and analyze nearby resources, fauna, and points of interest. It serves as an upgraded version of the handheld scanner, providing a wider range and automated scanning capabilities.
Key Features
- Resource Detection: Automatically identifies nearby deposit nodes for minerals and other craftable resources.
- Fauna Analysis: Scans local wildlife to unlock databank entries and provide behavioral insights.
- Range Expansion: Covers a significantly larger area than the personal handheld scanner.
- Integration: Can be linked with other base modules for enhanced operational efficiency.
Construction
To build a Scanner Station, players typically require advanced electronic components and power infrastructure. Ensure your base has sufficient power generation to support continuous operation.
