how do you remove water in a new base

[Vexel]

i was building a seabase but, when i went inside it was filled with water. so i do i remove the water

You need to weld the damaged areas or your base is done for. Bulkheads slow down the flooding. When all breaches are fixed the base automatically drains the water.

Is the integrity of the base the issue? Is something damaging the base? Are there cracks in the walls allowing water to flood in?

This is something I forgot to ask. If the first issue you need reinforcements asap. If 2 get rid of the problem asap. The third is the direct (and most current issue) which I gave an answer to.

i didn't says it was damaged i said i "made" a base "MADE" not damaged

?!? Are you in Experimental? The only 2 reasons a base should have water in it is 1 the Base Intergrity is a negitive value (you built too many modules and not enough foundations/bulkheads/reinforced panels for your current depth) OR some creature damaged your base. Both of these create visible breaches inside that you need to weld. Otherwise you sir found a glitch.

Did you build it partially above the water line?

That is a well known glitch.

Well yes, well known to many of us. But we apparently have to narrow it down to figure out how to help OP.

its a glitch, i did what you said nothing still water inside

Where or what did you build before you saw the water.

When you build it you have to add a power source to your house for it to drain the water from inside.

A.) WHere did you build it.

B.) Make sure you CHECK for any breaches. If you are in the safe shallows it could be a rrandom floater attached to the outside and you cant find the breach. Check behind your lockers etc.

C.) A screenshot or 2 would be nice to see exactly what is going on.

We cant help you unless you provide specifics.
