Hello everyone, Figured I’d ask here 'cause I’m getting the problem that got me to quit my previous world again: When I’ve got a sufficiently large build I want to make I can’t clearly envision how I want to assemble it. To take the current example: I’ve just finished building my Miner Mk2 after redesigning it (lost my BPs when I upgraded my PC) and I can already see that while leagues better than the Mk1 it will be insufficient for the big projects I want to do… so I’ve begun work designing it’s replacement. Thing is the replacement is a Large Grid mining vessel with a special mining bore-arm that I’d designed separately and special connector-arm to be able to transfer material to my ground-base. I’ve got those two elements but I can see several ways to set up the internals and I’m not sure which one to go with… or how I’d want to stylize the Hull since I couldn’t exactly fly a LG brick.
Anyone else get this problem? Should I design the hull first and then fit the functional bits inside it?
Is there a sandbox/creative mode where you could try out the different designs you’re considering and prototype, calibrate, then save and use in a regular game? If so that may that may help in deciding which design you might prefer, as well as styling decisions.
Have you never actually played the game you are commenting on? Curious
Only ever part of a free weekend, so not enough to know a ton about it, but I’ve played other similar-ish games.
Fair enough. The game is a huge sandbox that started out as just the creative mode, survival came later actually.
Yeah, I have a backup of my survival world I use for that kind of creative testing. I still have this problem though.
