subnautica multipurpose room should be base

But it still doesn't add anything good to the game. Waste of time, tedious, not fun, pointless. But what do they do? Make you build storage in a tiny corridor in order to reasonably get to the island (or even find out about it, if you're new and not spoiled), then you have to tear it all down and rebuild it later when you find the room and go 'oh, that would be so much nicer'.

Lockers of all sorts fit much better in an MPR than in a cramped corridor. I've tried extending the hallway, but it still will not let me build. From that compartment, I tried to build a multipurpose room but it won't let me build. Off the back of it I built a small junction using a T-Compartment hanging off the room. They're nothing but a waste of materials and they don't hold nearly enough. I can provide a screenshot later, but I have a base with a multipurpose room. Interior Main Base Inside the Multipurpose Room there is an abandoned PDA on the Desk and a Purple Tablet beside it. My agrument was always that first reason to build a base is storage. At some point a landslide buried part of the central base and severely damaged the rest of it, being the likely reason for their departure from the island.

You're not going to be held up getting one of those because you don't have the blueprint for the room to build it in or anything.

I recognize that maybe it's part-in-parcel with some of the important base features that require the MPR - bioreactor, alien containment, water filtration), but it's not like all of those aren't FAR harder to get and later in the game no matter what. And yeah, it's pretty much pointless aggravation. It's not so much difficult (it's not like you try and somehow 'fail' to get the blueprint), it's just delayed.
