What's the current method of clearing cache?
I tried to recently and I think I did it right? But the guides all mention this folder that's not even there for me but the only guides I can find are older so I'm assuming the folder I'm not seeing had something to do with the removed terraformer?
Thanks for any help. I appreciate it

SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\Subnautica\SNAppData\SavedGames\slot0000\CellsCache

slotXXXX is whatever save game slot you want to clear.
All the files in the CellsCache folder can be deleted.
This will result in a lot of things being reintroduced/respawned into the environment. Your base and all the things you have done will still exist, those are in a separate file location.

A little late, but you should backup the whole folder before deleting anything, or bad things could happen.

Well, I tried deleting those batch files and it loaded the game in like 20 seconds.

I was just inside the alien weapon facility and now all doors are locked and I need purple tablets to open them again. Of course I have none as I used them all up.

Now I have to figure out how to warp out of here with the console commands. Am d before I die from thirst. Under 10% and walking slow as hell. lol
hm, restore the files? ;)
you should be able to leave the gun on the bottom, there is a moonpool big enough for the cyclops
and for everything else: https://subnautica.fandom.com/wiki/Console_Commands
dont forget: achievements are disabled with console

You can safely remove the BatchObjects folder as well.

Cellscache folder holds all the things assigned by the batchobjects folder.
The batchobjects folder is just a copy of the default subnautica map with some scripts to put things in their assigned random locations. If you delete the batchobjects folder, it's just copied back when you load subnautica. There's no point in deleting the batchobjects folder.

Removing the cellscache folder resets everything in the map back to whatever the batchobjects assigned (defaults with randomization). So if you saved inside a lockable room, exited, then removed the cellscache folder, you're now in a locked room... stop doing that.

Anyway, the console commands can get you out easy enough. And only a few of them disable the achievements and they're clearly listed as "CHEAT", all others are safe to use if you care about achievements. Achievements are also only disabled for that single play session. So if you use a cheat, save, exit, reload, you can get your achievements again, they're not saved into your save file.
