Unable to build cyclops

[theshadowotter]

I am unable to build the cyclops and before you ask yes I have the blueprint, the problem is that the mobile vehicle bay keeps saying can not build here, build in deeper water, but i am trying to build it in water thats over 100 meters deep

also i did try building another mobile vehicle bay and i still get the same message

is there a fix or am i doomed to be unable to use a cyclops

The thing is big, and it drops a bit when you make it, go to deeper wider water. And make sure you aren't on experimental build (beta)

I could build mine in the Safe Shallows, I think this has more to do with something being in the way. Keep in mind that the drones fly forward a couple of meters, OP.

You shouldn't be able to build it in shallows. It has to be very deep water. They added that so silly people don't go building it in the shallows. xD

Go build it in the Kelp zone that is right next to you. That area should be deep enough.

I guess I was at a good spot, then.

Just pick up the vehicle bay and move it somewhere with deeper water until it works. Don't see the problem?

i have been doing that it is in the grassy platue biome its 100m deep and 100 widethere is ample rtoom to build nothign is in front of it anything, it has plenty of room to build but the ai keeps sayign that it needs to be built in deeper water

This actually might be a bug I've seen before. Try making a new MVB, and that should fix it.

First try going into like 200m deep water.

RIP me, then. Go deeper.

You cant for some weird reason build it in the biome around the quarantine enforcement island nor can you build it above the floaty islands

Having the same issue it's very annoying

It's not an issue -- the mobile vehicle bay needs to be in sufficiently deep water for the submarine to have enough space. This means the safe shallows and kelp forest won't cut it. Go out into the grassy plateau (red grass area) and deploy the MVB there.
