Scafandr Mod FAQ
10 questions players actually ask, answered.
Why am I spawning in a bunker instead of the normal Minecraft world?
Scafandr Mod replaces your spawn with an underground bunker as the starting point for the mod's story campaign. This is intentional—the bunker is your base station where you'll find your first spacesuit and begin exploring the abandoned city above.
Do I need to wear the orange spacesuit at all times outside?
Yes, the spacesuit protects you from the hazardous conditions in the abandoned city. Without it, you'll take damage outdoors, so always equip one from the suit rack before venturing to the surface.
What do I do if the Watcher appears?
The Watcher spawns when you enter dangerous zones and is an ominous threat you should avoid or escape from. Return to safe areas like your bunker or use your vehicle to flee quickly.
How do I expand my bunker base?
Use the UTKER terminal inside your base station to access construction options and upgrade menus. The terminal will guide you through building new rooms and installing equipment like filters and generators.
What are skint minerals and why do they spread?
Skint minerals are crystalline hazards found throughout the city in three types: Regular Skint (expands when you travel between dimensions), Antiskint (reduces your max health on contact), and Infected Skint (corrupted blocks in danger zones). Avoid touching them when possible.
How do I travel to other dimensions?
Use special portal items to shift between dimensions, which consumes spark energy and causes skint minerals to spread. The Prunus pocket dimension is one accessible location, but dimension travel is a core mechanic tied to your story progression.
Can I disable the abandoned city generation?
Yes, use the command `/gamerule deadCityGeneration false` before creating your world to prevent the city from generating. This only works on world creation, not on existing worlds.
What's the best way to loot abandoned buildings without dying?
Always wear your spacesuit, use a vehicle when possible for protection, and avoid hazardous zones where the Watcher appears. Search microstructures and smaller buildings first to gather supplies before tackling larger, more dangerous locations.
How do I complete the mod's story?
The final goal is to defeat the Ender Dragon and craft the world restoration device using materials and knowledge gathered throughout your journey. Work with NPCs, upgrade your base via UTKER, and explore all available areas to progress toward this objective.
What are the rubber ducks for?
Rubber ducks are collectible rewards you earn by unlocking in-game achievements. They're cosmetic items that celebrate your progress through the mod's content.
