How to Build Processor in Subnautica 2
Quick Answer
Build the Processor after scanning its blueprint by opening the Habitat Builder inside a powered base room and placing it from interior facilities. Current sources list Titanium, Mild Acid, and Copper Wire as the build materials.
Requirements
- Processor blueprint
- Habitat Builder
- Powered base
- Titanium
- Mild Acid
- Copper Wire
Exact Location
- The Processor is placed inside your base, not outside. Put it where you can reach both the recipe/input side and the output side.
Step-by-Step Route
- Scan the Processor blueprint first; it will not appear in the build menu before that.
- Return to a powered base room with enough interior space.
- Equip the Habitat Builder and open Interior Facilities.
- Select Processor and place it on a valid interior floor/wall position.
- Check that the base still has power before starting long processing jobs.
Crafting Recipe
- 2x or 3x Titanium depending on current build/source
- 1x Mild Acid
- 1x Copper Wire
What It Unlocks
- Processor recipes
- Ingot crafting
- Strong Acid processing
- Tadpole and Sonic Resonator material chains
Common Mistakes
- Trying to build the Processor from the Fabricator.
- Placing it in a base with no power reserve.
- Leaving the output side blocked by other interior pieces.
