Building a base is very uncomfortable!

Building a base is very uncomfortable.

1.Need a free/flying camera, especially for high structures.
Now you have to constantly drive closer to each place where you plan to place the block.

2. The main floor plate sticks anywhere except the actual docking place.

+1 I totally agree with the OP the present situation of having to drive your tech all over the place to get different views is a Royal Pain!

At the very least let us jump from the Vehicle Tech into the Tech Yard to make that a central pivot point for the camera.

Also a lock base feature would be nice. To prevent accidentally picking up the floor when editing the tech.

Hi holdrunner!

We're disabling interaction with structure blocks when your Tech is in 'lifted' mode, which you should see in an update that's coming very soon!

Our aim is to always make building feel very drag/drop and easy/intuitive when playing, and we're constantly working on improving and updating the game. Please feel free to keep giving us feedback and ideas on what you'd like to see in terms of camera options/angles when building.

It's be great if we could use the D-Pad to rotate and flip pieces. Also a way to rotate and zoom camera when building. Use L/R 1 and 2 as modifiers to switch functionality of what sticks and D-Pad do.

yes pls

a base lock funtction and a free build cam is needed.

or make it a block to access a build drone

Yes and the whole problem with base building is THE CAMERA. I dont see why they cannot lock the camera to the pointer when building a base or even attaching things to you tech, it would make it sooo much better to be able to see.

[Mirages689]

Agree

As for improving constructing experience, I think <besiege> had provided a good case.
For example, pressing the middle key of mouse could locate the camera rotation center where the mouse pointer at.

"Very uncomfortable"
100% the most ample description of base building in this game.
