[Bug] No Saltwater fishes in arctic biome on Prometheus

1 votes

When fishing in arctic biome (or setting fish trap) no fish can be caught. Traps lays only sponges, fish chunks and spoiled plants

On prometheus salt water fishes are only available in swamp and volcanic biomes, you'll only get freshwater fishes in arctic biome. If you're doing the CELEBRITY CHEF mission you probably want to leave fish cages near two collect pods and bring your kitchen with you

Also I strongly suggest the requirements for saltwater fishes and freshwater fishes in that mission to swap places, it's a bit beyond reason the way it is.

In my opinion Prometheus was built to segment resources like soy, yeast, titanium, salt water fish, etc.

It's intentionally made to be like this from what I experience during play.

There are many things that are wrong or buggy with water
1. you don't know the water type, would be nice to see that when you look at the water. This can help when searching like in your case.
2. the swamp water should be brackish not salt. Only volcanic water should be salt.
3. You can drink salt water which should be severely debuffed if not purified.
4. Swamp water is like a few cm deep, took me a while to figure out you could fish here.
