Nuclear Reactor (Subnautica)



The Nuclear Reactor processes Uranium and Disinfected Water into Energy for use by a Seabase. This process is referred to as "Process Uranium". The reactor is constructed with the Habitat Builder, and can be placed on the ground or on a Foundation module. (Note: It can not be attached to the exterior of the Cyclops.) The Nuclear Reactor generates energy twice as fast as the Bioreactor. It can also be damaged and destroyed by striking it 15 times with the Survival Knife.

The Nuclear Reactor generates 1000 energy units for each use of "Process Uranium". The reactor's power capacity is 500 energy units. Currently it only produces energy in some Game Modes.

The current model is a placeholder. In the future it will be placed inside seabases instead of outside of them. The in-game description of the Reactor Rod suggest that they will be powering Nuclear Reactors in the future.
