Submersible Information Thread

Can I ask a stupid question that I'm sure is covered in here, but I've yet to find it explicitly stated? How do you get started?

Do I just build the first class of sub and start running missions and then upgrade from there?

The parts you can put on your sub (or airship) are limited by your sub's/ship's rank. So the ONLY set you can use at the start is the first one. After you get some ranks you can start looking at building different parts and equipping them. Your sub/ship is also limited by the "gear slots" it has, which increase with rank, so even if you have the minimum rank needed to equip a certain part, you might not be able to equip a full set of those parts at first because you won't have enough space, so you'll have to pick and choose which part you want to upgrade first and which can wait.

I have an outdated guide I wrote up back when airships were new that goes through how to equip and level them. Submersibles work pretty much the same way. You can use this as a starting point but keep in mind some of the info is different now (though the basics for getting started haven't changed much which is why I think this still may be useful to you.)

Another observation about the new pieces, they are all direct upgrades of the previous model. Some or all of the stats are higher, none are lower.

All modified parts are equal in combined Surv/Retr/Spd/Range, at 105, with favor random.
