build helper

Can you please increase the maximum selection size for the copy and paste tool, I'm sure everyone here can agree that 10X10 is absolutely useless when building structures of this scale

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...

The Gmodism Industries Brings you: GHI Structural Blocks The Gmodism Heavy Industries have developed 'Structure, 7 Build-blocks Pack', a set of basic shapes with the purpose to design and shape constructions from ships to stations to THE UNIVERSE. Originally inspired from a StarMade official...

I have “acquired” yeah I stole it a rather nice ship and I like to make some adjustments to it. In the old build interface I used to be able to quickly replace or remove blocks from a ship without removing the other blocks that make up the ship. So let say I want to remove all Power Reactors...

Looking at our structures in lighten mode is almost impossible. there are no edges visible at all. Can we add an option like solidworks to draw all edge lines? They call it shaded with edges " 2015 SOLIDWORKS Help - Shaded With Edges " Seeing where all the lines are and actually being able to...

//This suggestion is currently raw and will be announced only after finishing! A problem: To change color of blocks or modules you have to use replace tool. And you can replace something wrong. It takes long and it's not fun. Suggestion: Make special tool to replace system you choosed by few...

For when you dont want to place blocks manually, just press "fill build helper" and it would fill in the build helper thingy, its a simple idea

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...

Think logic Think "I have this huge logic piece which connects to A B C logic pieces. But it's in the wrong place" To move it (currently) "Copy logic piece. paste logic piece in correct place. Reconnect logic piece to A B C logic pieces" That's slow. Idea: select area in advanced build mode use...

Hello. So this idea is to make the build helper select a block exactly like how the create docking has you select where the core will go. The reason I suggest this is because many times I want to create a shape over an area that already has a docked entity, and right now I have to undock...

anyone else having trouble with the upgraded build helper now? i use the helper, i clear it, i go back to building, i try to use it again and it no longer allows me the opportunity to select a target block. i can adjust the settings of the helper, but it stays locked onto the original block i...

I guess we all know the struggle when you're building your ship and you can't proper see what you're doing. Enabling the lighten-mode makes it most of the time even worse. Something relative simple to help us all out would be a 'Wireframe'-mode in addition to the lighten-mode. We already have a...

Hello there! So this concept is to create new functionality for the build helper, utilizing the concepts of copy/pasting. Players would be able to create their own custom build helper, either by selecting an area OR by selecting a center block of an entity (basically the reverse of placing...

Mass: 4.4 Length: 12m Height: 3m Width: 3m Thrust Ratio to Mass: 2.5 A fast, nimble tug used to flit around build stations; between projects, carrying people and docked entities. It can carry up to 11 docked entities on the central rail line, and a few more if you are willing to use the...

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...
