GARDENER'S PARADISE SUBNAUTICA BASE - 1.0

This base was made for those who want a quick jump start on having a luxury safe shallows base towards the beginning of survival mode. It was made to combine convenience with a pleasing and homey aesthetic.

Since this base was made in a survival mode save file, the story can still be played to completion. Be warned, however, that it contains spoilers, so if you haven't played through story mode yet, you may want to wait to use this save file.

REQUIRED MODS: (see this file's Nexus Mods page for links)

QModManager
SML Helper (Modding Helper)
Base Clocks?
Exterior Plant Pots?
Decorations Mod?

ALSO RECOMMENDED:

Radial Tabs? (avoids issue of some fabricator items being off screen)
Cheat Manager? (makes customization easier if you wish to use console commands)
Customized Storage? (makes lockers and personal storage hold more - highly recommended)
More Quick Slots? (allows you to use the provided tools more easily)
Alien Rifle (it is preconfigured in this save file. Keep in mind it can inhibit the fear factor of the game though. If you don't want to use it you can delete the RifleSaves subfolder in the save file).

KNOWN ISSUES:

- Depending on your system, this base may cause a few FPS lag issues. I get a range of anywhere from 16 to 80 FPS on my custom AMD system. If you experience these issues, try pressing F3, then F8, then setting texture quality to 3.
