Hi, I'm new to the forums but I'm new not to Subnautica, this game gives me humble feelings.

I came up with a speedrun challange which I also completed myself.
The goal is to dock a Seamoth in a Moonpool on Hardcore difficulty.
I thought it was a good challange to calculate all the resources needed and also to gather everything efficiently and in which areas.

I had much fun recording this but like any speedrun it was awkward untill I got a good run.

Of course you don't need to record this yourself but I would love to see how others try to complete this challange.
At first I thought : Just go to the fragment and research it, how hard can it be? But since this game is so !!F*****G AWESOME!! It was much more trouble than expected, with "limited time" aswell.
I should excuse my outburst, but then again, you've played the game.
I hope I get to see people doing their own version of this like The Fastest Cyclops or Race to the Aurora to repair it or whatever really.

Anyway, here's my run. (33 min 33 sec)



This is my planning and some last notes.
Step 1

-Find-
SeaMoth Fragment // If I don't find it fast I usually just waste too much time finding it later //

-Gather-
6 Titanium
4 Quartz
1 Lubricant // The huge coral tunnel is perfect at the beginning //
4 Copper
4 Shrooms

-Build-
SeaGlide
Knife
Small Storage Box // The box isn't really required but it's nice to have //
Tank // One tank is enough //

Step 2

-Gather-
12 Titanium
1 Copper
4 Quartz
4 Silver
2 Shrooms
4 Table

-Build-
Builder
Foundation
Corridor
Fragment Analyzer
Fabricator // I only build this close to surface, good for fluient crafting //
Solar Panel

Step 3

-Gather-
13 Titanium
8 Quartz
4 Copper
2 Lubricant

-Build-
MVB
SeaMoth

-Find-
Moon Pool Fragment (Deep Grand Reef) // Finding the DGR is harder than finding the MPFragment //

Step 4

-Gather-
42 Titanium
3 Quartz
2 Gold
2 Table
1 Silver
-Build-
Moon Pool
Solar Panel
Dock SeaMoth
Win // So much fun! //

-Last notes-
1. Sorry for bits of lag, the game runs fine on my computer when fraps isn't active.
2. It was most rofl that I lost track of the Grand Reef because of the awesome Aurora explosion.
3. I was really scared from the dehydration but it worked out fine in the end.
4. I wish we could kill the Reaper Leviathan because that would be such a good speedrun oppertunity, but it would also have to be very late game in my opinion. That thing is mean!
5. I'm thinking about doing a 100% speedrun with all the current content. This would require a lot more planning.

Thank you for allowing your time.

For Subnautica and Unknown Worlds!
