Hey, guys.
As I've read in multiple threads by now, some people, me included, think it would be a good idea to make the Exosuit able to have a Habitat Builder arm.
For one, I think it would be cool to just sit outside your base for as long as you'd like and take your time building it, not having to worry about O2.
As for strictly game mechanics-wise reasons, let's say that you'd be required to build bases only while inside the Exosuit after reaching a certain depth, let's say this would start around 800-1000 metres (maybe even earlier, but I'm not here to discuss balance, I hope you get the idea), because the pressure would otherwise crush you.
What do you, fellow players, but maybe more importantly, devs, think about this?

I would actually like to see the base building mechanics changed so that the handheld builder can only construct simple underwater shelters (the habitat builder uses far less energy than the fabricator and is much smaller, yet it can construct much larger and more complex objects, but that's another issue), and to build larger bases the player needs a vehicle mounted constructor. Since the Seamoth doesn't even require a base to be built, it could have a constructor upgrade as well for building bases without creating any dependency loops.
Given the Seamoth depth limit, this would fit nicely with an exosuit builder addon for building very deep bases.
