The Trident is a long-range exploration submersible Vehicle.
Overview
Based on its current implementation, accessible through the use of Console Commands, finding and restoring the wrecked sub to working condition will be the main focus of the EA2 update. However, the ending screen that displays upon completing the restoration process suggests that the sub may not be drivable until a later update.
The wreckage will be found buried in the Tar Delta region, and require the player to fix its power system. The power core will need to be scanned and repaired with the Bioscanner and Habitat Builder, respectively. Afterwards, the Molten Reactor Fuel Cell will need to be constructed and placed in its respective slot in the core.
The Key Item is referred to internally as the Axum Fission Core. Considering this, as well as the need for the Bioscanner, it seems plausible that the submarine may be of Axum design, or a hybrid model.
A log in the experimental branch reveals that Sophie was the creator (or one of the creators) of the Trident, and that it was designed to be invisible to the NoA.
Remaining information regarding the Trident is sparse, though the developers have discussed some key aspects of it:
- Unlike the Cyclops from ''Subnautica'', this submarine will not be fully destructible. It can be put out of commission, but repair will still be possible.
- Multiple players will not be required to operate the submarine, with it being equally usable in both singleplayer and multiplayer. Distinct roles will be able to be fulfilled with additional players, however.
- Though unconfirmed, lead developer Anthony Gallegos has suggested that the submarine could have a modular interior that makes use of both free-build and pre-built compartments.
Repair Recipe
The wreckage in the Tar Delta region contains a damaged Axum Nuclear Reactor that needs repairs in order to restore functionality of the Trident.
