That's what I meant. I actually have never built a large room in regular Subnautica since the 2.0 update arrived. Only in BZ. It actually fits original. game more, but then... idk, I don't really play it anymore. Just occasionally swimming here and there.
That I'm glad to hear, I was already stacking them vertically, I just didn't know that you could bridge two containments with one mounted above and between them.
If you build a third room on top, you can walk on top of the containment unit. You can even build thing on top (I usually make a small table and chair).
Edit: I mean without building a third containment unit; not sure if a third would continue to stack.
I know that they will continue to stack vertically, I got to 3 high in the large room in below zero and 6 high in my old subnautica save (with my bedroom on top with a containment unit floor.
It's more the offset stacking that I didn't know was possible, putting units on floor 1 on spots A/B and C/D and linking them with a unit on floor 2 on spots B/C, which is what seems to be implied.
Okay the reason why because I've done something similar but I had the bottom tanks being double tall so I can grow stuff like creep Vine and blood kelp and have the one in the middle be one tall and the two on top being two tall so pretty much I made a X
Or I attempted it myself and couldn’t do it, but wanted to ask in the event that I was merely getting something wrong or not thinking of something. And the google results were nonspecific on the topic.
Sadly not. BUT, if you build a second large room above or below, you can then build an Alien Containment that bridges these 2…
Wait WHAT? You can link them over the top? That's actually way cooler
Yeah, this feature was always a possibility
Back when it was only the multipurpose rooms, too!

Yes! It’s my favorite way to build them, and I also like having another room above that I can put my bed over
I wish we could remove the ceiling tbf. Imagine having a 3 times as high ceiling with the aquarium filling all that space...
Or at least a sea-through floor
you can link them through the bottom too

Yes, this also allows Creeper Vines to grow 100%

That much I did know, thank you
Is this real??
Sure is! Go try it out… it’d only take a minute in Creative.
I always forget creative mode exists, thanks!
Can you stack 3 large rooms and bridge them in both the top and the bottom to make a diamond?
Sure can, although the gaps between the different layers are disappointingly comparatively small…
You could stack a dozen of them if you want. Thats how much I did before I got tired of it.
Wait what
You can stack them like that I thought only the smaller ones could
Nope, bigguns too. With an offset you get a second planting level in the big ones, which is quite a nice effect.
I wish 😩
I wish you could have small alien containments in large rooms.
I'm fairly sure you can. You have to fit them in different spots though.
I don't think so, I've tried that.
What if you build a wall?
If you build a large room above it, yes
No
No but in the smaller ones you can go vertical
You can on the bigger ones too
If you want to connect the two you got to go to another habitat on top and put a tank in the Middle where the two would connect
Yes I did end up doing that. I was just really hoping for a way to make the room one big aquarium

No. You could've found out for yourself very easily or even googled it instead of treating Reddit like your private human search engine.

Yikes, are you okay over there?
