Repair bases of Degasi

[Artem]

Hello!
Thanks for so perfect game!

Add an availability to repair of Degasi's bases.
It would be fantastic to restore its (under water) and use it as own home :)
Please, consider this availability.

You know, it's funny. But unless we were able to attach our own built power options to them, most of the Degasi bases would still be useless even if you were allowed to repair them.

Consider floater island's surface bases, for example. Sure, there are the destroyed remains of searchlights laying around... But do you see the remains of any power sources? Nope.

Man. No wonder they all died. They would have run out of air anyways "We finished our deep grand reef base!" "That's nice. Where are we getting out air from?" "...I knew I forgot something."

I had this thought myself, however, what would be the point?
The Mushroom Cave base is a dead end, the three on the Floating Island are, well, on an island and using them would be very annoying because of the time it would take to reach them.

Realistically, the only one that is in a suitable location to be used is the one in the Deeper Grand Reef and since it's the only one, implementing a the mechanic to repair those bases would be a waste of time, imho.

Unless they make player built bases destructible so that restoring them would become an actual mechanic. But that would be a bad idea because it would be impossible to have a base anywhere near a place with predators - which is pretty much everywhere - since it would just get destroyed while you're out exploring.

Not even directly underneath your lifepod is safe, a longstanding quirk as old as the game's development.

Starting up a brand new game and already having gaspods spamming your lifepod within 30 seconds of entering the water for the first time, even in recent times.

+1 I like that idea

That wouldn't work either as the Crabsquids would keep shutting down the power with their EMP.

Which is why you need an automated base defense.

I don't see troubles, that see you.
What's a problem to build power sources?
Sun, for example, Bioreactor, Nuclear?

> Where are we getting out air from?
When you build your own base - Where are you getting out air from?

Player can kill all crabs :)

Stasis Rifle + Upgraded Knife makes quick work of them... if you want to go hands on.

I agree, repairing the Degrasi based would be great!! I've just started piping air down there to explore and am about to setup my first base for some mining operations down there, but all the best spots are already taken by broken bases!

It would be much easier if I could repair, even just one dang general purpose room with a fabricator to get me going down there. Slap on a bio reactor and good to go. That cavern is HUGE.

Looks like I gotta go alllll the way back to my pod to make another batch of air piping before I find a suitable place to lay foundations

Let me guess! You thought this was a recent post because Google brought you here only not to realize that it wasn't as "recent" as you thought!
