Dismantling Base

[CMDR Erik Alan]

Do I get all of the resources for everything I built back?

I'm decently far along in the quests and would rather not regather everything from scratch again.

If you dismantle yourself yes, 100%. If you go the lazy way ( previous item cache ) i think you loose some. Note that if you rebuild container their content is untouched. So you can store most of the base inside them and build them first in the new base.

Edit: Rebuilding is very quick if you know where everything is. I can rebuild my base in <10 min if i find a nice planet. But its just 10 containers, roamer, landing pad, trade station, 3 biodomes and a few antimatter dispensers.

Wait what?

Explain that with the container

Build a container 01, put stuff in it, dismantle it, ie Z then CTRL and then F to dlete it.

Go to new base area, Build Container 01 and it will have what ever you put in it before.

The big containers 0 to 9 retain their content if you delete them. So you can dismantle your base put the building materials into the containers, then tear down the containers so you have their building materials in your inventory. Teleport to current station, and start your new base with building those 10 containers.

Somebody else can maybe comment on how much you loose the other way, cause idk.

Edit: del-dredd was quicker :)

If you use the new base transfer, you get not the buildings but have the rescoures that went into them, rounded down [just like dismantling tech] If you dismantle at your old base (or anywhere else) 'built' things, you get all the resouces. So, start by dimantling the trade terminal, landing pad, vehicle pad, maybe stuff with glass in it, Then just transfer the rest and rebuild.
