advanced build mode

So I am grinding my way through a... large fleet shipyard at the moment, and find myself wondering if there is no way symmetry can be applied in a secondary way to restricted build helper building. In this case, I am constructing two, symmetrical shipyards for large capital ships. Each consists...

Finally working on something large and using the Build Helpers pane to create large scale structure (circular arcs, namely). So there's this interesting feature called Restrict Building to Helper that acts as a mask so only blocks are placed within the helper zone. And Symmetry can be used a...

Repeating the typical request for the game's strongest suite: Improve advanced build mode tools to improve build flow. For this suggestion, I am focused on the selection, removal, and pasting of parts/clipboards/templates. 1. The dimension-based advanced removal process (normally right-click)...

So, when pasting something down, I noticed that the blocks are translucent. This would be a rather useful toggle to put on when roaming around my ship in build mode so that I could see where logic and other systems are. So then you'd have "lighten" and "translucent". Example: To avoid too...

Allow me to introduce one of my greatest logic endeavors, Calculatron 9999 - an attempt at making a StarMade logic calculator. It's called "CalculaTRON" because I feel like the commonly used "tron" ending denotes machines with personalities, and the "9999" part is a reference with a twist to...

So I was building my Station and was having troubles building my main part because it consisted of a fully glass dome. My main issue is that I like to have the design sort of "Smooth". Basically it doesn't have any 90° angles . But because the glass is clear and hard to see, it ended up not...

I think, it's a good idea to color the mirror axis buttons in the advanced build mode, in the same colors as the mirror axis are displayed: Blue, Yellow and Red. So it's a little helpsetting to activate / deactivate the correct axis in the moment. Especially for players who are not yet build...

Hi guys, just a quick question: the preview of the block (for rotation) in advanced build mode shows no texture for me (which often makes it hard to see which way the block is facing), see picture below: Is this normal behaviour or do I change a setting anywhere? Thanks a lot Polarius

It's great we can disable logic pipes... but some structures are designed with the intent that logic pipes should be disabled from view. Currently disabling of logic pipes is global through the graphics menu. Lets allow BP designers to select whether to display logic pipes should be displayed...

In advanced mode, I am suggesting a Reset button to put all the sliders back to one. My opinion is that it's tedious to put all 3 back to one block when moving onto the next part to build. Going from 100 X by 30 Y by 20 Z, then going to 1 on all to switch to 10 X by 1 Y by 10 Z would be much...

I would like to have a tool in advanced build mode for creating text with blocks. Creating large signs one block at a time is very annoying and time consuming. You can create a template for each character, but it's a pain to select a template when there are hundreds of them. What I would suggest...

Can you add diagonal mirrors for my Mobile space station (Using ship core so it moves) So that i can make a perfect circular space station, cuz i hate it when i have to use X, Y, Z axis but i still have to make a huge copy of 1 side of the station, cuz it only auto copy front and back, but i...

When i've compacted my logic into a ship, and this problem comes with most smaller ships, when i have to spread the logic through the gaps i can find. I find editing the logic, after i have installed it, to be quite confusing and hard to manage. Now here's my suggestion: An Advanced Build...

Since we now have the cool feature that we can select what we are looking at i recomnd adding 2 hotkeys for "removing looking at" and "replacing looking at with selected block" It would significantly decrease building time.

Ok, so this idea is kind of simple. Basically, in the advanced build mode, have an option called "Freeform Building" that can be check on or off. What this does is enables you to build in the air, whether there is a block there or not. It'd work just like how placing the core of a "Create...

Suggestion: Make an option(Or just change adv build mode over-all) to be a toggle action rather then a hold action. Why? Well iv become a bit of a huge fan of wedges you see, So i kinda decided to wedge everything and its kinda left me in pain because my pinky was holding and tapping ctrl so...

I was thinking it would be useful to have a way of measuring other than using your ABM sliders. It could be a button or hotkey to lock on to the block under your mouse and have a read out in the ABM that tells you the distance from the block you locked on to. Just a thought, though there may...

I know this has been asked before. I am continuously running into symmetry issues. I wish to allow Even symmetry on the XZ plane and Odd symmetry on the YZ plane at the same time. As the size of the ships that i'm running into this issue with are increasing, I am having more problems with...

More build mode helper shapes, and allow the helper to use non-cube blocks too. This suggestion is about the build helper tool. If it were to include more shapes, like for example, the cuboctahedron, dodecahedron, icosahedron and all that good stuff, that'd be cool. If it were to also have a...
