EASY BUILD - I found a way how to MAKE IT WORK!

[0x0x0™]

Hi ROBOTS,
after HOURS and DAYS of pure HATE versus EASY BUILD I found a way HOW TO use the HANGAR.

DISCLAMER:
I do not think the DEVS modified something and all I'll will explain in here is MY PERSONAL EXPERIENCE and it WORKS for me twice after MANY FAILURES and COMMENTS to the DEVS!


The most IMPORTANT ASPECT of EASY BUILD is that is it easy as much as you PREPARE yourself with modules PRIOR to building and you need to stay CALM!

The most ANNOYING part is once you are in BUILD MODE and you are ARRANGING your TOOLBAR.

--- ZERO RULE:
DO not DRAG MODULES, use NUMBERS associated with your TOOLBAR!
SO you can SAFELY use 10 modules at time, be organized!


--- FIRST RULE:
DO NOT ARRANGE your MODULE LIST in your TOOL BAR if you are in BUILD MODE in EASY BUILD, it will happened that you will place a NON EXISTENT module in SPACE that you will be UNABLE TO REMOVE but in fact IT IS NOT THERE so, you can keep building.
You can keep building IF YOU HAVE NOT MERGED with another STILL PRESENT module, then the PROBLEM become a little bit complicate that I'll try to explain in other rules.

--- SECOND RULE:
DO NOT EXIT with the ship UNTIL you finished the DESIGN.
I found that some times you like to SEE if it works and just TRY it.
DO NOT DO THIS STUFF, there is a MECHANISM that will FLAG your ship as NOT NEW so there is not MORE WAYS to get it WORK or ADD MORE MODULES.

Once you star a PROJECT, END IT or you will PROBABLY LOOSE IT.
P.S. I found that you can even go out and return, but is not 100% that when you return the EASY BUILD will allow to SNAP more modules.

--- THIRD RULE:
BE aware the EASY BUILD is LIKE LEGO BRICKS so it is EASY but it accept ONLY LEGO, not DUPLO or CHINA LEGO, only MODULES.
What I means, I means that if you like to PUT ON a NON MODULE part like an ADDITIONAL REACTOR while you are building your ship in EASY BUILD HANGAR you can make the SHIP not any more ABLE to SNAP other MODULES.

The EASY BUILD SHIPS MUST BE MADE ONLY WITH MODULES.
Once you finish you go out and ADD the stuff you like as a SPEEDOMETER or a ROD, etc.

--- FORTH RULE:
Placing engine MODULES is the MOST CRITICAL STUFF in EASY BUILD, 90% I failed thanks to ENGINE MODULE PLACING WRONG SNAPPING!

I found that the ENGINE MODULES must be PLACED 100% careful and be INFINITE CAREFUL that the SNAPPING is GREEN, calm down and place.

Many times in the beginning I was OVERLAPPING the ENGINES MODULES like ONE IN ANOTHER and not ON ANOTHER.
WHY?
Looks like to me that the EASY BUILD SCRIPT have SOMETHING OFF related RECOGNIZING if there is another object.

Also they SNAP ALONE just by trying to TAKE THEM from the tool bar.

In this RULE the MODULES in the TOOLBAR are CRITICAL to success.

Be aware in that situation you CAN't DETACH THEM so you LOST THEM.

The remedy is to exit EASY BUILD and remove the modules MANUALLY as you would do in space with an ABANDONED SHIP.

You can also STORE YOUR SHIP, go to the other AREA without those WRONG PLACED engines and you star there a new EASY BUILD SESSION.
I tried to log off just to see that the ENGINES are still there for some hours.

So better change the AREA and keep modeling your SHIP!

NOTE you must STORE not MOVE the ship, in this way you are preserving the VERGINITY of the EASY BUILD that you are assembling.

--- FIFTH RULE:
Be aware that the BASIC module have 2 sides, one is WHITE and the other is some GREY.

You must ROTATE the MODULE to be able to make the UPPER DECK of your ship.

It looks SO SIMILAR that I was angry for 2 days after I discovered HOW STUPID SOLUTION the DEV employed for MAKE IT WORK.

Once you rotate the MODULE it snaps just GREAT as EASY BUILD was CONCIVED to work!

Probably the dev was not working in the REAL HANGAR and there was much LIGHT from the SURROUNDINGS to see the difference.
If you build your ship at night and you do not use your light, it is dark enough that you will not NOTICE the difference, that was my PRIMARY PROBLEM.

--- SIXTH RULE:
BE CALM, do not LEAVE YOUR BUTTON UNTIL you are 100% sure you got the right snap.

This rule is ONCE you star to be more FAMILIAR with easy build and you are BUILDING repetitive things like CRATES or BASIC MODULES for decks that you will PROBABLY encounter this RULE USEFUL.

The problem is that AS THE ENGINE MODULE, but A LOT LESS, the module can MOVE OVER placed MODULES and if you REALISE THE BUTTON, you are MERGING the MODULES together.

There are 2 solutions about that:
1 - You go out of the EASY BUILD and your RECYCLE the modules.
Very risky if you do not have some familiarity with BUILDING and recycling and it can FLAG YOUR SHIP like NOT ANY MORE VERGINE, so you LOST YOUR PROJECT!

2- You do the same as with the engines, you remove the SURROUNDING modules, you store your ship and you go to the OTHER area (EASY BUILD HAVE 2 AREAS, take a look) where there are not "SHADOW MODULES" preventing you to CREATE!.

--- NO MORE RULEz:
At the end of this post I like to say that EASY BUILD is the BIGGEST and HUGE CANCER of the game and EASY BUILD is the COLUMN that will decide if the GAME will be SUCCESSFUL or not.

Easy Build is CRUCIAL for NOOBS, if you keep not FIXING the EASY BUILD no much PLAYERS will be READY to WASTE hours finding HOW TO BUILD a BOX SHIP.

Easy BUILD is the TIRE 1 level of PLAYERS INTERACTION, if you keep screwing that part NO MORE NEW PLAYERS, sorry DEVs, I posted that you many times, we all know what is and can be EASY BUILD!

To be FAIR, I must say that I MAKE IT WORK, it took many hours of patience and I have also a couple of VIDEOS just showing you the problems and the SOLUTIONS that I'll post to help the NEW commers untill the FROZENBYTE wake up and pay 1K euro an expert CODER to FIX some VARIABES and RETUNE/CALIBRATE some thousand lines of codes.

As a ROBOT I ask FROZENBYTE if they can made an EXTRA EFFORT and GIFT US an USABLE EASY BUILD for the new YEAR!

It would be GREAT!

Best regards,
ROBOT

Just another NOTE about EASY BUILD!

The SPACE BASE building is what EASY BUILD must be and in fact it is the same but uses other MODULES, from what I can see from OUTSIDE and as a player!

OWNING a SPACE BASE in game means that you can have your own SPACE BASE that you DESIGN and craft as you are in EASY BUILD in origin STATIONS.

You craft MODULES and you SNAP THEM!
For SPACE BASES all the SYSTEM works like PURE GOLD, NEVER HAD ANY PROBLEMS but there the SCRIPT recognize the OTHER PLACED modules so it is EASY to snap and get a HUGE BASE :).

So it is VERY VERY ANNOYING to see that SPACE BASES work just as a DREAM while the OLDER BROTHER, the EASY BUILD for ships is very very ANNOYING.

Please try to FOCUS the problem and make this game FLOURISH!

Best regards,
ROBOT

Mod should make this a sticky post, it can save new players some headaches when it stays visible and easy to find, as it is always the same complaints about Easy Build Mode going wrong on discord.

Hi dude ;)

Thanks to reply.

I have done even a VIDEO to TRASH those who are SPITTING on Starbase.

25 minute and Ill publish it ;)

53 mins of PURE PASSION and REPLY to ANGRY "BIRDS"!

In fact I show in the VIDEO how I TROUBLESHOOTED the easy build and make USE of the RULES with NOVELTY while RECORDING :)

STARBASE is THE BEST GAME OUT THERE but NOBODY HAS discovered it YET!

Best regards,
ROBOT
