Building without jetpack killing survival ?

[Paracelse Alchemist]

Anyone has some trick for me , it's realy getting on my nerve to build on planet in survival. Take so much time just to weld stuff 3-4 block high ....

How does you guy do it ?

Usefull tip: Some people made mods where you can toggle the need for hydrogen in jetpacks / ships

Some Normal/ion thrusters in mods are purposely not updated (the code that nerfs them in atmos/grav) Most of sektans for one you could build a small ship backpack.

I made a claw machine, only with landing gear instead of a claw, it picks up whatever im working on and moves it around so I can build under it.

Picture plox.

Second, this is a cool idea, would love to see they way you implemented it.

A clever engineer could build a ship yard with pistons and rotors to move walkways making building easier.

Scaffolding is a pain and I can't get control+g to do anything while flying a ship. I may go get a mod for infinite jetpack.

if planets is too hard dont play on planet , learn the game , easiest start "and planet sort of" is moon , you able to fairly jetpack for about 30 seconds , more if you dont fly much , gravity is 0.25

i started first on mars , too hard for me for a "start on planets" , once i learn the game and how planet works and get used to "having deal with gravity" ill start planet

Besides moon lets you instantly fly to space and mine asteroids , YOU can fly to planet later on , make own base there after you build your own landing ship:d

I have hundreds of hours in SE so i'm not a new player dont answer me like I'm like of a new player that joined during the week end

Is it control-g or shift-g?

Does the cockpit inventory have building materials? Is it connected to inventory?

I really like the jetpack limitation on planets. yes, they can increase the time to 20 seconds or a little more, but not unlimited.
At least now we have two game styles and this is fun <3

To alleviate the "problem", I built a mini elevator car

but i still use scaffolding in some cases i don't see the problem, i like it.
I just think there could be some type of ladder or rope in-game or a new type of block specific for scaffolding, more organized with different metal/wood appearance from normal blocks.

I've been placing station blocks from my welder ship, works great after switching to 1st person view! (Though I'd like an option to always keep the block ghost in front regardless of viewing angle for 3rd person view!)
For building small ships the jetpack does enable you to get on top of already placed/built blocks to continue building from there. It seems you can safely walk on any block or its framework. Carry a hydrogen bottle, it'll be used every 1-2 trips and lasts long (6+ refills?), something like 10 times up or down a small ship.
Building on a planet feels most limited by the power consumption of staying alift, making my welder ship's 4 batteries last barely 15-20 mins so I tend to plan & place most of a ship to then efficiently weld it together. 24 solar panels recharge my station just about the same amount in that time...

This is awesome Idea , any modder in the room ? :P

Protip: if you place a "stairs" block in a 2-high orientation instead of a 1-high, you can still walk right up it.

I believe an alternate suit with atmospheric thruster will be more preferable.
Something like:
-Ion suit/jetpack. In it you won't be able to survive planet fall, may be compensate fall acceleration a little. Slower acceleration in space in comparison to Hydrogen suit, but it does not require fuel.
-Hydrogen suit/jetpack - what we have now
-Atmospheric jetpack - planets only version that can last a minute in 'hover' mode thatnks to suits energy supply, does not require fuel.

Changing station would be the medbay suit selection screen?

Hey, fun fact, if you have inertia dampners on %100 of the time like a pleb because you lack the motor control functions to pilot yourself properly, you are not entitled to an easymode!
build a ship!
Use your brain!

Stop complaining about things that aren't broken or unfair!
