Later on, its main role is to replenish the health of the Seamoth, Prawn Suit (Subnautica), and Cyclops, and to fix holes in the hull of the Cyclops and most Seabase modules.
The Repair Tool is first used to repair the damaged panel to the left of the Fabricator (Subnautica) in Lifepod 5 and the Lifepod's Radio, which allows messages to be received (though not sent, as the protagonist is silent).Īfterwards, early on in the game while exploring Wrecks, there can sometimes be a damaged control panel usually identical to the one in Lifepod 5 for doors, which then allows for access or easier access to an interior.
