How To Unlock Scout Ray Chassis Blueprint in Subnautica 2
You have to go to the Tadpole Pens and scan the Scout Ray Chassis for its blueprint. This place is roughly 650 meters east of the Lifepod, and at a depth of around 150 meters.
Once you arrive at this location, head inside, and you will find the Scout Ray Chassis resting in the back. Scan the fragment, and the blueprint will be added to your inventory.
Note: If the recipe is not added in the first scan, do not worry. Scan the Chassis from the other side, and both fragments should get added. This will give you the blueprint for the same.
