Problems placing Base platforms and Palisade walls
I have had issues with the placement of decks often an area where i can attach say a stairs or that is clear will not allow a deck to snap or connect, I feel with elevation of the decks and the nature of human building these should be extremely flexible. I.e. you should be able to build a cabin on the side of a hill as long as it is not sloped to much.

Also I have had terrible issues placing Palisade walls areas where they would clearly be able to run will show red and i have checked all around making sure nothing was blocking on the ground, often times ive had to build in extremely wierd angles, i hope to see this remedied by much more flexibility in the walls, they should be able to angle pretty much any angle a human could realistically build them....

I find building to be a key element that draws me to games, and being this is not a voxel tech based game, i know building is done differently like the forest, ark, conan many snap and build style games, but Developers all seem to make the same mistakes in limiting position of items based on strange things like them clipping into an object or angle of a hill these should be considered and adjusted for as a human who can build a deck can cut the area say where it would clip, to make it fit or lengthen and shorten walls and platform legs to make them work at angles. So please consider fixing this what i see as a bug or limitation in building as building is important to have realistic flexibility. I can see it would be hard to throw a foundation on the side of a sheer cliff, but a steep hill many cabins have been built in such places.

We hope and aim to give you guys more placement freedom in the future and see what cool creations and bases you make. Rest assured, this will be improved and we are aware that placement can be really annoying at times.

Ok i have a base that is on a slight angled hill not to bad. So i can get a 3 middle section but the other 2 sides i can only get 2 decks to place, the one deck refuses to place it either will go green lower down or stay red and refuse to snap to the other deck spots its super frustrating. Then on the otherside the deck is perfect to snap but there is a nice sized rock in the way, and no way that i know of to remove the rock but the deck will snap ontop of the rock. These building limitations are aggrivating and should not be in place, they limit building in a bad way, i can in RL cut around the rock or make the legs longer or shorter, I would beg the devs for the sake of a decent building system please remove these terrible limitations to collision and snapping on your building framework. It is something i cannot understand from game to game why DEVS just dont get.

I have seen every time mods always have to come along and fix the building systems. EVERYTIME please while its still in alpha make an awesom building system that is dynamic fun not frustrating and every video everyone always builds in open fields WTF??? this is not the way to build in a game where you need to be able to hide your base. OK im done with my rant.
