A second hotfix for Subnautica 2 addresses vehicle docking issues, voice chat detection consistency, and power generator state persistence.

What changed

  • Resolves Tadpole docking geometry conflicts and out-of-bounds teleportation bugs.
  • Improves voice chat detection consistency across local and remote multiplayer clients.
  • Fixes power calculation errors for Thermal and Hydroelectric Generators when reloading zones.
  • Addresses crash diagnostics, memory leaks on Xbox, and display issues across habitat structures.

Submersible handling and physics adjustments

  • Fixes docking failures where the Tadpole vehicle geometry blocked clearance checks.

Multiplayer stability and base generator fixes

  • Standardizes Voice Chat detection handling across both local and remote session participants.
  • Corrects an issue causing multiplayer clients to perceive the host as dead following individual respawns.
  • Ensures Thermal and Hydroelectric Generators retain accurate power values when streamed back into active memory.

Interface corrections and crash diagnostics
