Subnautica 2 Tadpole Build Route

A progression route for Tadpole construction that combines fragment-style markers, early electronics and deeper resource prep.

Goal

Connect vehicle-part hunting to resources, tech fragments and depth readiness.

1. Collect electronics before fragment loops
Recipe
Silver, copper and battery-path resources should be secured before following fragment reports into longer routes.
Third-party research materials
2. Use the Tech & Story tab for fragment checks
Approximate
Fragment, terminal and loot-style points are grouped away from resources so route planning stays readable.
Third-party research materials
3. Add deeper resources only after the route is stable
Route note
Depth-module materials should be planned as a separate deep run rather than mixed into the first vehicle-part sweep.
Community research materials

Does this route draw an exact line on the map?

No. The route uses waypoint cards and approximate areas because the current evidence is not enough for a verified line.

What should I do after this route?

Open the Quartz and Silver guides, then submit any launch-build screenshots or video if you can verify exact coordinates.
