Blueprints (Subnautica)
Blueprints are special schematics that are required to make certain advanced items in the game. They are created through analyzing Fragments with the Scanner. Some items, however, like the Floodlight, require scanning relics left behind in wrecks of the Aurora. The player has to scan multiple fragments in order to research most Blueprints. Once discovered, Blueprints can be used an infinite amount of times for building purposes. Certain Blueprints do not require Fragments, and are pre-installed in the PDA.
