Are they supposed to respawn minerals? If so mine are not. :(

You should be able to cut as much as you like off of them. Are you now being allowed to do that?

Initially I took all the minerals. Hours later (real time) and they haven't reproduced.

If you're talking about the Limestone deposits found inside the larger ones, no they do not respawn - no resources in Subnautica do other than the wildlife. Just keep braving new areas as best you can, plenty to go around.

I guess the Sea Treaders generate an infinite amount.. Off topic though sorta.

Ah ok, thanks for the info. Too bad they don't respawn tho

They only give you copper and lead... As far as I know. Luckily tho, since copper are one of the most used materials.

They give lithium as well. Lead is one of least craftable materials except for nuc reactor and rad suit, and I have never picked it up since then. Copper and lithium are nice tho.

Sometimes it can SEEM like they do, because in the dark, middle sections of the "ceiling" and around the edges of the openings I often miss one or two nodes, which I then spot later on while passing by or through. But no, that's not them respawning.

On topic, if I remember corecctly, you can get 20 corals from each tubes, and they aren't respawnable.

That's changed recently then. It used to be copper and lithium only. If they added titanium and replaced lithium with lead, that's a new change. Also one that they snuck in past Trello.

@RCMidas It's not a recent change (or change at all), here's a thread from 2015 where they talk about Limestone drops; copper and titanium. Lithium has never that I know of spawned in limestone.

I meant the Sea Treader basalt outcrops. Crossed wires there.

I was referring to the earlier sea treader post...
