Survival to creative then back again

[Some_auzzie]

I was wondring if i started a survival game and swoped it to creative then back to survival would this effect anything like obtaining skins ect?

Other than the fact that your unknown signals will not spawn while in creative you should not see any impact. I do this all the time. Alt + F10 turn on creative tools, then when finished, turn them back off.

I have not noticed any decline in spawned cargo crates, or the rate at which the skins drop.

Grate, thank you. i want to have the full survival experience but i wanted to spawn to planets in the crashed ship map. :)

One thing you must be careful of is the inventory. You have infinite inventory in Creative mode. So if you move more inventory into a container while in creative than that containers capacity is in Survival it will get truncated when you switch back.

As Silverwing stated, the better way to access Creative building is by using Space Master alt-f10.

I'll admit I often do this particularly when trying to quickly work out some detail like how many thrusters I need. I'll copy a grid and workout the details then delete it and go back to Survival work. I found moving away from my other bases and ships prevents me from making the mistake of forgetting to switch it off before altering anything for real.

As for spawning in planets with the crashed ship map, I have one on the workshop you can use. What you want to do is take a blueprint the Red Ship. Then create the Star System map. In that map use Spectator mode to move out into space and then paste in the Crashed Red Ship Asteroid and the blueprint for the ship.

Save that map as a template then do a Save as and create a New map on which to build.

Edit: You can use any asteroid but the specific one used in the map is a Predefined asteroid you can find in the Spawn menu.

I did the same thing with the Lone Survivor Asteroid map.

Great suggestions ...sailor. I often take for granted that everyone uses the SpaceMaster menu and forget the details.

Will using alt f10 change everyone to creative? or just 1 person

Just one I think, but you should double check with a friend.
