I don't think I had scanner room blue print.

Also found in great abundance around the red grass plateaus especially near wrecks.

You'll get radio messages from Lifepod 17, 6 and 7.

Lifepod 17 will give you a HUD marker that takes you straight to it, depending on where your lifepod spawned you'll likely pass a small wreck and a scatter, and there is a large wreck within sight of it. I would actually be surprised if you couldn't complete the Seamoth, scanner room and bioreactor right there.

Lifepod 6 and 7 are both "coordinates corrupted" quests; it won't give you a HUD marker but a picture and a hint as to their location (lifepod 4 is similar). 6 is similarly within sight of a large wreck and a scatter, going to Lifepod 7 will take you past a large scatter and a small wreck.

All three of these are fully explorable with a seaglide, high capacity air tank, and repair tool. I recommend a rebreather and an air bladder. You can find scanner room, bioreactor and seaglide parts in addition to scrap titanium outside the wrecks, and laser cutter, propulsion cannon, mobile vehicle bay, modification station, battery chargers, plus several useful databoxes including the vehicle upgrade console, and a strong chance of +30 bottles of water in supply crates.

It can be a bit of a bother for new players telling scannable fragments from the background scenery of the wrecks; act a bit like a bloodhound, drag your nose around looking for the scanner icon to pop up in the corner of the screen.

I'll give an oblique hint for further in the game: there may come a point where you say to yourself, "Well now what?" And the game doesn't seem to give you somewhere to go like it has been. go deeper.

I don't need hints because I'm not playing the game and I'm not planning on continuing. I'd gotten further than you think. But for context I'd already begun to explore the deeper areas when I ran into this conundrum. I built a stupidly long oxygen tube to get down there. I think the game expects you to have the sea moth first. That was one of the first moments I thought something was wrong. Then I think once I got it I couldn't take it down there without an upgrade because I also didn't have the moon pool unlocked. You're talking about life pods, I never had a problem finding life pods. Those were easy and fun. It was going deeper without the sea moth and upgrades that was troublesome.

Yeah, it sounds like you didn't explore the wrecks or their surroundings, because all the blueprints you say you need can be found above 250m fairly easily. There are Seamoth parts and a free depth upgrade for the Seamoth available right at sea level in the Aurora. I've finished the game several times without building a seabase at all.

I explored around the wrecks.
