README

Build In Seatruck Plus

Release License: MIT

Build inside your Seatruck — and bring the music with you.

A Subnautica: Below Zero mod with two headline features:

  • 🛠️ Build In Seatruck — use the Habitat Builder to place buildables inside your Seatruck. Lockers, fabricators, planters, decorations — they ride with the vehicle, and detaching/reattaching modules works as expected. This is a BepInEx port, updated for the current game, of BluesKutya's Build In Seatruck.
  • 🎵 Mini Jukebox & Speakers — compact, Seatruck-sized buildables that play the music tracks you've unlocked from Jukebox Disks, plus a hotkey to control playback on the move.

Build anything inside the Seatruck

Features

🛠️ Build In Seatruck

  • Place buildables inside any Seatruck segment with the Habitat Builder.
  • Everything parents to the segment, so it rides with the Seatruck as you drive.
  • Detach and reattach modules freely — your builds stay put.
  • Normal base and world building are completely untouched (the Seatruck handling is scoped to when you're actually standing in a Seatruck).

🎵 Mini Jukebox & Speakers

  • Mini Jukebox — a 25%-scale buildable jukebox that fits the Seatruck. Plays your unlocked tracks through the game's own jukebox engine, with the normal in-world play / pause / next / shuffle / repeat / volume screen.
  • Mini Speaker — a 50%-scale speaker so the music is clear inside the cramped cab.
  • Very liberal placement collision on both, so they're easy to fit.

⌨️ Playback hotkey

While inside a Seatruck or base:

  • Hold the key (default R) → start / stop playback.
  • Tap the key → skip to the next track (with a "Now playing" toast).

⚙️ In-game options (Nautilus Mod Options)

Rebind the hotkey, tune long-press timing, cheap recipe, unlock toggle, default shuffle, and notifications.

Usage

Building in the Seatruck

Get inside a Seatruck, equip the Habitat Builder, and build as you normally would in a base. The placement ghost turns green inside the cab and attached modules; whatever you place rides along when you drive.

The jukebox

  1. Unlock the mini buildables. By default the Mini Jukebox & Mini Speaker unlock alongside the vanilla Jukebox (find Jukebox Disks / scan Jukebox fragments). Prefer them from the start? Tick "Unlock buildables at start" in the mod options and restart.
  2. Build a Mini Jukebox (and a Mini Speaker or two) in your Seatruck — they share the vanilla Jukebox's build-menu category.
  3. Play music:
    • Walk up and click the jukebox's screen, or
    • Use the hotkey: hold R to start/stop, tap R to skip. Only active while you're inside a Seatruck or base.

Songs are the ones you've unlocked from Jukebox Disks — the mod uses the game's own unlocked-track playlist, so there's nothing extra to manage.


Configuration

Open Options → Mod Options → Build In Seatruck Plus in-game. Settings are saved to BepInEx/config/com.tristyn.buildinseatruckplus.json.

Option Default Description
Playback hotkey R Key for play/stop (hold) and next (tap), in Seatruck/base

Building from source

Requires the .NET SDK and a local install of the game + BepInEx + Nautilus (the .csproj references DLLs by absolute path — adjust the paths at the top of BuildInSeatruckPlus.csproj to your install).

dotnet build BuildInSeatruckPlus.csproj -c Release

The build publicizes Assembly-CSharp (via BepInEx.AssemblyPublicizer.MSBuild) and copies the output DLL into BepInEx/plugins/BuildInSeatruckPlus/.

To produce release zips:

./package.sh
