Underwater Home/Base that is drained of water... Possible? Attn: DEVS & Modders
So I was thinking that it would be cool to have a house underwater. There is a lot of it and I want to keep my water dinos protected. I figured it would be cool to have a large underwater home that was water free but you could perhaps go into a room that acted as an "air lock" that would fill with water allowing you to then open the outer door to the ocean or to a larger room that had your water dinos in it.
I have made a similar home in Minecraft and thought it would be awesome to implement it into this game. I know the 2 games are completely different in terms of game mechanics however if the water in ARK has physical properties that allow it to be dynamic when a structure is build then perhaps it could be "pumped out/in" to a structure with a mod.

Ideas? Comments?

There are already mods for this

Also there are 2 water bubbles in The Centre map which you can build inside

Wow thanks!! My sons will be stoaked too. They love building the houses in this game! In MineCraft they always build underwater houses. Sometimes pretty elaborately too so this will make them flip!!

Any chance you could share the location of those 2 bubbles?

Thanks! I like the official releases the most only because they seem more stable. I have tons of mods for Fallout 4 and some of them cause some severe issues!

I totally caved in and downloaded this one. Pretty cool mod for SURE! Although its awkward to see the fish swimming in air around you lol. I haven't messed with it too much but maaaaan does it ever stretch the possibilities of the game. Kudos to the modder that made that one.

Clearly, that mod doesn't exist any more, probably because it isn't needed anymore since the tek vacuum compartments were introduced for the purpose of building underwater.
