[[]ReeO[]]

There are soime Debris likw and old Research chamber i have found but won't fit in my Large shredder. So how does one Dismantle it? errrr...... help?

[Zarinthal]

you cannot yet

[「wew」]

You cannot scrap them in either Shredder but you can destroy them with Dynamite (you don't get any scrap though)

I'm sure this is something in the mix to come at some point. Or what's point in all them lovely scrappies :)

its a tease

My initial thought was that the drill head would break them into smaller pieces, but nope. It's a shame, there are a lot of big pieces of scrap that would, logically, be the best pieces - But they're just clutter. We really need a way to shred this stuff, or, to repair it.

I would like to be able to
1. break large things into smaller things with the drill head so they fit into a shredder
2. repair platforms/modules
3. pack platforms and modules back into the box form so we can repair wrecked bases and move all the goodies to our own base

I think you missed where 「wew」said "I would like to be able to" ... you can not use the drill head to dismantle platforms/modules into smaller things.

Currently the Drill head is only usable with the Crane to mine dirt/resources.

yeah you can't actually do that

I do wish they allowed demolition of crashed ships. You would use 1-4 explosive charges depending on the side of the ship. The explosion would give you predeterined pieces of debris that you could feed into the scrapper. This would make dynamite worth something other than clearing out trees around you base, which I don't do that often.

sigh... Thought i finally found a purpose to all that trash for scrap :( They need to add this feature or what on the hell is point to all the broken big debris.

I know this is old, in case any one cares, what I figured, since I cant bring the scrap to the shredder - take the shredder to the scrap.
Large Rover, XL Shredder, lots of power modules and storage for scrap - drive around. return to base ship out/trade out scrap

Use a packager?

Use a packager?

a packaged debris does not fit in the shredder

The way i do is to explode the big debris with a dynamite and have smaller pieces wich fit into the shredder

use a packager so you you can store it one level lower and transport it. Then open it to put in the XL shredder.
