Cona1210 Posted February 17, 2017 Share Posted February 17, 2017 Base building Does anyone think Base building should be improved withing the game? As in editing terrain within a base and also foundations extend in height with uneven ground so we don't have to use pillars as support? Hopefully they bring more add ons out for bases.

orionwinterfire Posted February 17, 2017 Share Posted February 17, 2017 Yep, it would be nice, but I doubt it will happen anytime soon, if ever. Mods pretty much have it covered, and I imagine we will leave it at that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hmm, no to the editing terrain and foundations that extend in height. The terrain is purposely level in some places, not in others (in my opinion) to encourage or discourage bases in certain areas. Yes to improving base building. If the game was designed to build a base just anywhere, there would be no challenge to building a base and also bases would be all over the place. Now there are a lot of tricks you need to employ to create certain types of looks and things like double walls. They should add improvements to building such that those "tricks" are a standard part of building and don't require knowing the "trick" to make it work. Such as the ability to lower foundations. Why not make this some kind of option instead of requiring the use of an extra pillar, etc.? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Khaos1107 Posted February 18, 2017 Share Posted February 18, 2017 Dont see it happening but it would be great. Make my life a lot easier. But it makes you have to think. Finding ways to build with pillars and ceilings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danne92 Posted February 18, 2017 Share Posted February 18, 2017 building needs alot of work, stacking walls is pretty stupid and unrealistic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest BubbaCrawfish Posted February 18, 2017 Share Posted February 18, 2017 Base building would become messy as heck as everyone starts expanding further and further out with no need to plan anything. I personally look at a place, put out thatch foundations to get a sense of how big I can get, and then use pillars to bring my foundation heights down to another height to fill the gaps then go through to see if the new height will allow a complete setup. Fresonis is a real good educator in building... https://www.youtube.com/user/Giliam84 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wacca1664 Posted February 20, 2017 Share Posted February 20, 2017 I use fence foundations. The walls I place from the ceiling down, but I use an extra width of thatch roof and snap the walls to this. After I delete the thatch. This puts it out by a tiny bit but it's enough to then fill the gaps by snapping a wall to the fence foundations behind the walls.
