Building ahem roof

[WOLFHORS3]

For the LOVE of GOD please give us an inverted triangle slope for the roof! How can you have inside corner slope pieces, Corner slope pieces and no way to put a sloped roof on an octagon.
Please I'm begging you. I thought for sure when the second building piece set there was one but noooo. C'mon pretty please? You're the only game besides minecraft I know of that doesn't have one.

I agree with you the building system is a mess it seems like it was never finished with pieces that will not lock, like the small floor and triangle pieces and roof capping. I hate how they change models depending on what story they are at it, makes them look so untidy.

But hey, it seems they fixed the foundation strut quad! (holding up my landing pad)

Nope don't see any V, but I do see a hole in the 2nd pic, in the tall building, far right, top. We need that inverted slope wall too. What I'm talking about are the triangle pieces missing here.

[Galadhlinn]

I see yours is a roof piece. Mine is a wall piece. Ya, both pics show the same hole. I threw up a full wall on the second picture to highlight the hole better.

I am trying to use those quad supports under my timber floor pieces right now and they won't snap. :-(

[Galadhlinn]

No they don't snap. I place a floor tile between the strut support base and what they are supposed to be supporting. Then I run a second course of short/small wall around the whole thing to tidy it up (like trim in rl). Fun, fun!
And some wonder why building piece limits are reached. : /

For the hexagonal/dodecahedron buildings you can use the sloping roofs overlapping, yes they create some jutting edges but it looks ok. You could probably rotate the triangular pieces using the reverse wire glitch though.

The cuboid supports snap only to the cuboid room prefab. To get a support to align perfectly where you want it, just add a temporary cuboid room, snap a support to the bottom of it, then delete the cuboid room afterwards.

@Yxklyx How bout they just give us the piece that every other F'in buildin game gives us. I love NMS and I'm pretty pleased with HG but WTF? HG, do you not build anything with your own game? I mean either the people doing building are morons or they just don't give a S41T. I mean it's a basic building piece and the building mechanic is not that hard to get right. I mean give us pieces we need and make em snap right. Jeez! everyone else seems to be able to meet this minor criteria but HG just doesn't seem to know how.
Sorry but it pisses me off. Empyrion, Ark, Raft, 7D2D, Even Conan gets it but HG just seems to make building a frustrating experience on purpose.
