Base Building Tips
📍 Location Matters
Build near multiple biomes to access diverse resources. The Grand Reef and Kelp Forest offer good central locations with varied materials nearby.
⚡ Power Planning
Solar panels are easiest but inconsistent (nighttime power drops). Combine with a Bioreactor for night backup. Nuclear is for late-game megabases.
📦 Storage Strategy
Don't wait until storage is full to build more lockers. Build them proactively and label them by material type for faster organization.
🌊 Depth Considerations
Deeper bases need stronger foundations and more maintenance. Consider the depth of your preferred biomes when planning location.
