This guide will teach you how to make a mini observatory base as shown in the photo in Subnautica.
Introduction
As you’ve probably seen in the title and image of this guide, I will teach you how to make an observatory base. you can modify yours to however you like or even expand upon it to make a full base. Use it however you like! A base for your friends (if you’re playing with the multiplayer mod), a new base if you’re sick of your old one, or even just for fun!
Small note: this is not a starter base. At least, I wouldn’t consider it a starter base.
Item Requirements
For this build, you will need:
- Fabricator
- MediKit Fabricator
- Battery Charger (optional)
- Radio
- Modification Station
- Single Bed
- Observatory
- 3 Wall Lockers
- Hatch

My Script says to “acquire all blueprints first” or “build along the way”… you can do those if you so wish to.
Simply, put things where they fit that’s what she said and hopefully, you should end up with a pretty swag starter base! thanks for taking the time to read my guide, and I hoped you enjoyed it/ found it useful
