help reclaiming and removing old structures?
Okay back story:
Had a decent metal base built up. Went on vacation. Base destroyed, except for some random metal plumbing.
Recruit friend to buy and join game.
As Im trying to recruit him into my tribe, we actually accomplish the opposite and I join his. No biggie.

Except now I cant remove/access the old metal plumbing pipes which are in the way of building a new base. I tried quitting his tribe, and reforming my old one, and even with the same old tribe name it wont let me access them.

Is there any possible way to access my own former tribe/personal stuff? So I can tear apart/remove the old plumbing?
If not then what is the time required until it becomes demolishable?

I think the big Q is where do you play? If you play on a server that allows the use of admin codes then you can use the admin code to force yourself into your old tribe and make yourself either the leader or an admin so you can access the old stuff.

This is providing the "givetome" or "giveallstructure" codes dont work without doing the above. Can try those first.

Other than that IDK the timers on decay for buildings etc. I have PVE decay supposedly disabled on my single player game.

Im on an official serve so cant enter any admin codes.

What makes no sense is why my own former structures, owned by me in my tribe of 1, would now be considered enemy structures simply for joining another tribe? I am still the original builder of them.

Not sure how to help then sorry. :( IDK why the devs havent made it so that tribes with no members instant disband. They still seem to exist as "ghost" tribes and still "own" property/dinos etc even with no members. It really sucks.

Hopefully someone that plays on official will have timers/an idea for you concerning PvP/PvE decay. >.<

Thats actually a really good suggestion. Tribes with 0 members should instant disband and their structures become instantly demolishable.

It would solve this problem.
