Transition from one design to another, base building question

[Lokilogic]

I may be missing something here not sure. I love being able to move my whole base around the map! Bravo! ... the problem comes when I want to change up the design. As far as I can tell you can only manually move everything around or demolish it all and rebuild. If there is a better way please let me know. If there is not then Devs, please add something to help with this. Yes I already know you can replace wood with stone in place. Problem is when you want to change the whole layout.

I would suggest doing the following:

1. Create a base blueprint in the blueprint menu if you have not already.

2. Follow the instructions and save everything you want to upgrade.

3. Then open your base blueprint menu there should be an option to toggle the materials used for the walls, floors, ceilings, roofs, etc. (i.e. everything wood, stone, whatever t3 is called and so on).
Note: Within the blueprint menu you under the materials tab you can see all the materials you need make sure you have at least that much or you wont be able to upgrade your base.

4. destroy your original base (or if you did not use the maximum of items then place a second base down) and open the base blueprint menu select the base and select the upgraded and plop it down.

Hope this helps.

Thanks for the suggestion. The base blueprint menu is great if you want to save your existing base, but that's all it does right? My problem is that I want to create a whole new base with a completely different design. I have to manually move all the crafting tables, boxes, deviation containers, etc, etc out of the way like off to a corner some where. Then tear everything down, rebuild then move everything back. It's just a really tedious manual process that's not fun.

What would be nice is if there was a button that would just suck all that stuff into your vault so you could just easily place it back down after rebuilding.
