Habitat Builder (Subnautica)

The Alterra handheld Habitat Builder  is a tool crafted using the Fabricator.

Usage
The Habitat Builder allows the player to build a variety of stationary items. It is a crucial tool for the deployment of Seabases and the customization of the interiors of both Seabases and the Cyclops.

The Habitat Builder requires a Battery to operate, and objects cannot be constructed/deconstructed if the battery is depleted. It has a gauge on the back that tells the player how much battery charge it has left.

If a Bleeder latches onto the player's arm, the player can use the Habitat Builder to hit the Bleeder.

How to Use

 * 1)  (Xbox One:, PlayStation 4:) to open the Habitat Builder menu
 * 2) Select the desired tab: Base Pieces, Exterior Modules, Interior Pieces, Interior Modules or Miscellaneous
 * 3) Select an item
 * 4) Point the Habitat Builder at wherever the item should be placed until an outline appears
 * 5) Use Up and Down Mousewheel (Xbox One and PlayStation 4:) to rotate object, if applicable.
 * 6) Press  (Xbox One:, PlayStation 4:) to place the outline
 * 7) Continue building the item by holding  (Xbox One:, PlayStation 4:).
 * 8) Done.
 * 9) Placed items can also be deconstructed by pointing the Habitat Builder at them and holding  (Xbox One and PlayStation 4:), this only applies if the text "Hold to Deconstruct" appears on the screen. This also gives back all resources used in the building process.

The Habitat Builder cannot build onto a corridor section that has any wall-mounted objects at the end the new part is being attached to (for example, lockers on the walls). In addition, if there is something directly where a new module will be joined, such as a Water Filtration Machine or Hatch, it should be manually deconstructed first: if it is not, it will be deleted and the materials will not be refunded to the player.

Bulkheads can only be built in placed corridor sections, not in the auto-generated corridor sections created by some rooms, such as the Moonpool and the Observatory.

Trivia

 * The idea for the Habitat Builder may be taken from Natural Selection 2, where the Builder is used to create various machinery, much like Subnautica's.
 * And thus, the Habitat Builder's former name was the Builder.
 * However, the fabrication message was not changed
 * The Habitat Builder originally could construct many base segments that are now cut, including the Fragment Analyzer, the Specimen Analyzer, the Botanical Analysis Machine, and the Power Generator.
 * All have been removed in the final game, and can only be spawned in using Console Commands.


 * The power left in the Habitat Builder's battery can be seen as represented with a blue power meter.

Bugs

 * Both the T Compartment and the X Compartment, when constructing, require three titanium. However, when deconstructing, they only yield two titanium in return. This is a carryover from when the two pieces originally cost two titanium each, which was switched to three when habitat module recipes were being redone.
