Fabricator (Subnautica)

The Fabricator is a placeable item which can be used to craft food, equipment, tools and machines from resources, as well as to refine raw and crafted materials.

The Fabricator can be constructed with the Builder and placed inside the Cyclops or a Seabase Module. In addition there is one located in the players starting location, the Escape Pod.

The fabricator menu has an auto-close feature, after it has crafted an item (you hold "shift" button to prevent this), and that allows player to reopen menu during the fabrication.

The Fabricator will drain Energy from whatever it is built inside. If energy levels drop to 0% then the Fabricator cannot be used. The Fabricator does not require energy to operate in Freedom Mode.
