In the game, there should be a simple diver support scooter between the portable crate and the tadpole to facilitate resource gathering and material transport. This would also enhance exploration throughout both the early and late stages of the game.
Simple diving/transport scooters exist in real life, so why not in a high-tech world like Subnautica 2?
The design of the diver scooter could look like this:
- The chassis could be the size of a signal buoy and powered by a simple battery.
- It would feature a small, switchable headlight on the front.
- It would include mounts on the left and right sides for tools and transport crates, as well as a propeller drive similar to the “hydro-propulsors.”
- Its speed and energy consumption would be comparable to those of the hydro-propulsors.
- It does not have oxygen support like the Qaulkuape, but can be taken to any depth like a normal box and serves as expedition support in the early game up to the late game.
- The blueprint could be unlocked upon acquiring the hydro-propulsors and portable storage crates, or by scanning a fragment found within the starting area.
