    What is the in game lore explanation for the abandoned bases? Were there other survivors after all?

    Yes! Maybe now we can finally avoid leaving a trail of dead ecosystems behind us!

    from what little I've seen, I think the bases are from... (spoiled just in case some people don't want to know)
    people that were sent out to the planet ahead of the Aurora to survey the planet. Though it could be other survivors and the player character was just unconscious for a long time after the crash.

    The ingame lore explanation can be found... ingame. If it is still the same as was on experimental, you can find something that will tell you a short story about those bases.

    @Detomaru You can find fragments of solar panel blueprints in the kelp, build a scanner to scan them..

    @omegataur I think the abandoned bases were only in the expirimental builds, and they're now 'released' into the regular early development build. PArts of the map were just sand, and have been completed/filled in now. I don't know if the size of the map is increased.

    Where did our builder tool go?
    Do we need to make one now?
    I am also having an issue with the game crashing since the update. I build a scanner tool and collect supplies as I search for stuff to scan (and try to find silver for my builder tool) and once I scan the second seamoth part it crashes. I have tried to do this 4 times now (each time was a new game) and every time it crashes.

    Also, pay attention to your escape pod, it seems like it is drifting away now instead of remaining in the same place!

    @paradine The habitat builder? you can make it with the fabricator: Personal -> Tools -> third from the bottom.
    I can scan fine, no crashes here.

    Just you all know there are 3 bases on the big island, two of them are on top of the mountains!!!

    I found out (after a bit of digging in the code) that the oculus (VR) system is still trying to run even when the game doesn't find the device. If this was fixed so the game checks for the device then completely disables the oculus (VR) system, or even just allow us to turn it off then it will reduce the total amount of work the computer has to do by as much as 50% and reduce as much as 15% of the total number of bugs.

    The game does scan for a rift at launch, but when it doesnt find one it doesnt reduce performance. I know, because I have a Rift here and I get the same performance with it on, or off, plugged in or not plugged in.

    The wall planter was in one of the bases on the island. Check it again.

    I Have to say with the last several updates I fired up the game, tinkered for a bit and then went back to whatever I was doing before. With this update however, I ended up not noticing the time until an hour after I usually head to bed for work (about 6 hrs later). Admittedly I have been waiting for this one, but it was more than that. Exploring and building have become fun again. With the culmination of the Scanner, Wrecks, new lighting, and now Farming... the game feels fresh once again, and I feel like there is more purpose in the gameplay mechanics.

    Still hoping for a larger expansion to Habitat (Lab, Control Room, Kitchen, Living Quarters and a 3D map buildable from sonar scans), but I'm excited to play again and hope the Devs are reading our gratitude for their excellent work.

    I think I picked up the wall planter from the wreck where the water machine use to be, its in the room where you cut through the door.
