The mod also features an autopilot prototype to let you relax while navigating and enjoy the scenery making it second on our Best 10 Mods for Subnautica.
2. Nitrox – Multiplayer Mod

The mod will enable a multiplayer mode which will allow the players to have a multiplayer option and can explore and complete the missions along with other players. The experience of a multiplayer will completely change the dynamics of the game and the players will play the game in a completely different strategy than what they are used to with the single-player default.
