Base relocation

[Purplepetrify]

base relocation is very painful when you have a big building and the game refuses to let you place it anywhere. there needs to be some king of auto height adjustment. this is just not fun. having to spend 30mins trying to find the perfect position to be able to place your base then not being able to, just makes you want to close the game. which is what ended up doing unfortunately.

Ya moving sucks, I ended up leaving it where it was, tearing it down, placing all my storage and deviants on just a few foundations, and then moving and rebuilding. I couldnt even use the blueprints because it still wouldnt let me place even individual buildings where I wanted them.

fly mode, have a big base never had any problems with adjustment. 100% how i want it.

Didnt work for me to set it down, it might work for some though depending on where you're trying to put it.

Adjust height by holding control button and moving mouse wheel if I remember correctly. It could be something else.

Consider you have a big base and if you move onto a slope area there bound to be a problem even with small territories. Lesson learned is if you are going to build big, find a location that you will never move again. ctrl + mousewheel as mentioned above to adjust the height.

Driving around the server yesterday made me think ... why DO people build these massive big buildings really? With the limitation of furniture and decoration they just look empty and abandoned. I prefer a smaller but detailed and lively home, where I try to make use of the space as effective as I can while still making it look as someone actually lives there. And they're easy to move.

the fly mode is garbage and doesnt help, yes you can move it a lil better but still mostly you cant oversee your whole property and cant see what is getting f*ed up when you place it. if your base is using flat space overall its probably easier but if its not its mostly a guaranteed f* up.

There are really two main types of base, one designed to be moved and one that is going to be a pain in the finger to place! My current base is actually three seperate buildings and has an entire floor that is submerged and all my plants are underwater. It's my aqua garden. With the varying levels of foundations it is impossible to move the base unless I only have one main foundation to align for moving. On a final note, if you cannot place you base even on somewhere like the salt flats in the north then you need to fix the foundations before trying to move. Finally, and this is something I'm going to try and the next run, I am not going to expand my base territory for a long as possible, this will then allow me to slip into smaller plots that 99% of players can't get into.

Be sure to remove all external stairs to ground and smaller foundations around main build. Should help you relocating.

I forgot to mention, I didn't try to move my building by choice. i was quite happy with where it was and it could of stayed there forever. but my building was removed due to "inactivity or instance merge" or something of the sort the game mentioned. and I tried to place it back exactly where it was. at least give me the option to just drop it back into it's last location. It's pretty annoying tbh.

damn, that sucks. Dev. do you see this please fix this problem asap, considering some servers might be merging after phase 5.
