There are no walls but you are probably talking about rooms and stuff. For this you need to find abandoned sea bases where you can scan the rooms so you can build them as well. There are 3 sea bases on the floating island, one in the jelly mushroom area and the others I can't remember.

There is one on the floating island. Just google how to get to the floating island and you will have directions. It's facing Auroras engines, SW if you have a compass.

Head southwest from the safe shallows (where your pod is) and you will find the floating island. Run around and scan all the abandoned structures

You don't need a compass. Just swim in the direction the Auroras engines are facing until you see the island. It is obscured by some low clouds until you get a bit closer.

Thanks found one

Doesn't the room modules automatically show up as buildable when you finally own a base building tool and have the appropriate materials in you inventory like titanium and glass? I think if you just equip the base-builder tool and right click there are automatically things that show up that you can build without needing blue prints. All you need is the resources. Sort of like the tool has pre-programmed building options.

Yeah but only the small connecting tubes etc. The big rooms and observatory and stuff like that you need to scan first from abandoned sea bases. They change that a few updates ago.

Skip the foundations, you don't even need them. Just start building modules, they automatically get "stilts" to hold them up.

Foundations do add to your overall integrity don't they?

Yes they do. I guess it depends where you build. If you go for a deep sea base then foundations are required. If you build in shallow water or above 300m depth you are fine. But if you plan on building 500 or 1000 meter deep it's better to build it with foundations :)

Yes, but I believe they only add 2 pts though.

2pts per and it’s additive as you connect more. I know this is old, but some may find it in the present like I did. I’m in shallow water. I need to see if I can deconstruct my foundations. I was losing my mind trying to make walls. I have a full office and cafeteria of blueprints, all of the sea moth and cyclops parts, but I still haven’t gotten the walls!
