Placing A Blueprint Model

[Ricebug]

Survival Mode. I grabbed the Tutor House bluprint from the workshop. I can move it around in the world but it will not plop down. It turns red on incompatible terrain, obviously, but when it's not red, how do I place it?

Hi, you can rotate the blueprint with Q,W,E,R,Y, and once you get it where you want left click your mouse button.

Survival mode = we must use the Medieval Master tools.

I usually add one stone cube on the soil first to have a Bounding Box, then aim at this block to position my Blueprint.

I know all of this. Problem is, ieft-click does nothing. According to Dan2D3D, I have to don the Medievil Master robes when in Survival mode.

Well, it absolutely would not load until I went into Creative Mode. (Yes, I did a file integrity check.) The Medieval Master mode doesn't do anything for blueprints, AFAIK.. However, I've only been playing ME for a few hours and there's a ton of stuff to learn.

In Survival, I could double-click on any blueprint but it would not "clamp" to the ground. No amount of rotation could get it turned to the correct orientation.

In Creative, the blueprints are aligned to the ground and plop down as advertised.

Yes, we must enable "Creative tools" in survival to paste blueprints cause it's not allowed so only the host of the world can do this with the Medieval Master, well you can give the permission to other players.

Oh! do you use the "O" key?


Here is what I do in survival to paste and align :

First thing to do in survival = hit Alt + F10 and enable "Creative"

Hit Esc to close the MM menu

★The first block goes =/+ 2/3 into the soil★

Find a Flat Area, add one stone cube 2/3 into the soil and do the following :
1- Open the Bp menu F10.
2- Double click the item and wait.
3- Ctrl + Mouse Wheel to move the Bp forward and backward.
4- Position the Blueprint with Q and E keys to rotate.
5- Hit the ''O'' key for free rotation and pasting.
6- Left Click to paste.

Still won't paste, plop, fizz, or belch.

Publish your world on the Workshop, tell me when ready and I will try.

Oops. I started over with a fresh map. Deleted the old one. If it happens again, I'll publish it.

I had a similar problem pasting in blueprints. My perception is the game prevents you from pasting in a blueprint if there is a structural integrity issue, but my evidence is only inclusive, not exclusive.
