I had a little trouble trying to attach a second moon pool, it ended up separate and i believe at an angle that means I won't be able to attach it to my base, which gave me the idea of a flexable connector, which has a concetinaed black rubber exterior and a flexible standard connector interior, I've also thought of a hinge connector, which is basically 2 pieces which are, a tube section (which is a quarter of the length of an I connector), and a cup (which has a diameter that is a quarter of the length of an I connector), they go with one cup over the other, the interior in the tube section is the same as a standard I connector and in the cup section the lower cup has a metal circular plate with a texture like those pieces of metal that have raised parts to increase grip when wet, the connectors will allow other angles other than the current 90°, they may require both ends to be able to connect to something (or it's possible that you could angle the concertina connector and hinge connector if only one end is connected), the concertina connector may be able to stretch or squash (which would mean that sections between two of them that aren't anchored to foundations would move around in currents or when collided with) and neither of these corner connectors come in a glass variant, it would be nice to see one or both of these connectors implemented into the game at some point, if you want I can try to design some concept art for them
