u REALLY need to stop eating rotten fish as it LOWERS your water MASSIVELY, and can do it to your food as well if its rotten enough. when cooking food, eat it immediately. dont take it for your travels. if u want to take food for the way, cure it with salt first. later u will find more solutions for food on the way, but usually curing a few fish is ideal, especially ones that add a lot of food...like the fish that swims near the rock pillars in the red areas. love them. u REALLY should read everything from your PDA databank, especially the interesting ones. at the very minimum, read the "assessment" part at the bottom of the more useful data entries. this can REALLY help u understand the world and how best to interact with it. u should read the part about the reefback, at least the bottom. u also already scanned the cool fish that mesmerized u...u can read about it too! btw u can fight its effect using the mouse to look away...but its harder the closer u r, until its impossible. please carry as little as possible when going away from base. u really shouldnt carry an extra O2 Tank. leave it in your base or near it. it does slow u down and its hard to remember to swap it. its not worth it. u need your inventory for useful stuff like tools, the seaglide and some defensive weapons. u CAN use empty batteries for crafting, including for tools and power cells. i think for tools it doesnt charge it up but keeps the charge...as they fixed the bug that gives u a fully charged tool, but the power cell i think will always come out full. bright objects appearing for a moment is actually wrecks being loaded into the game. can help u locate them...but technically its a bug. u DO need to read about the brain coral...the one spewing bubbles...they are super useful, especially when deep or in caves. use them! u REALLY need to look around wrecks better. most are easy to get into. sometimes even without a laser cutter and often from multiple ways! when u found that last wreck, u actually looked at an entrance and totally missed it. u gave up super quick. ideally keep some distance from u and the wreck, and look at it from ALL SIDES, including top and bottom. some have multiple entrances that reach the same areas, while some actually reach separate areas of the wreck. u CAN listen to audio logs instead of just reading them. u totally missed the sunbeam landing...which is one of the best moments of the game. thats sad. please react to it from youtube so we can see your actual reaction. wish u didnt miss it and actually went there on time... to go to the beacon of the sunbeam landing (and trust me, u NEED to as its a MAJOR part of the story of the game), go north. if u see a large object coming out of the water, go to the left of it, unless u want the long way around...and to risk your life...

Thank you for the info. I tend to get sidetracked easy. So I'll try to be better.
