[We need a paint tool, not 100's of varient materials]

I agree, and I'd like to be able to paint element too, like you can do in space engineers.

[Question about engines]

Hello everyone, I'm at the very beginning of my ship building career (lol) and I struggled a bit with my first small hauler when I came back fully loaded, so I am thinking about adding an atmospheric engine pointig down to slow my fall when re-entering atmosohere, but as I need it only for that specific situation, how can I control it separately from the forward engines? Because I guess (correct me if I'm wrong) it goes automatically with the other engines.

Same applies eventually for rocket engines, if for instance I want to add a rocket engine to ease take off stage, how can I have separated controls over it?

Played a lot of space engineers and I am so used to its ship control panel where you could group engines separately and basically do whatever you wanted with close to no effort.

Thx in advance and sry for eng.

 

[Idea "Voxel Vertices Mover" Build Tool]

Yes, pls,

[Laying a "flat" floor... ?]

There could be something around that floor that pushes/pulls your voxel, you can try 2 things:

 

-remove the floor with a bigger selection, this way you are 100% sure you clear evertything above/below that surface

 

-create the floor somewhere else and then copy and shift+paste in the desired position, by default when you place a voxel it morph relatively to the voxels arount it, by pressing shift when you paste you make the surrounding adapt to the shape you are placing.

 

Sry for bad eng ?

Is anyone else getting error 106 or is it just me?

I spent two hours cleaning up the bottom edge of a diagonal wall I copy pasted onto a flat floor (pop one tiny 45° slope block out, put it back in, rinse repeat). Why oh why did they have to 'triangle out' down there when the original was not that way?

 

Every single time this happened, it wasn't about shared grid points, or how voxels work. It was about it trying to be fancy with something I didn't want it to be fancy with. Sometimes changing a neighboring couple blocks, when I placed a third in a diagonal away (the only common side was the corner point which should not have morphed).

 

I keep looking for a toggle key to "Disable Magic Morphing Powers"...... but fail to find one. Judging by this thread, one does not exist, and really should exist.

Completely agree, I just started playing with voxels but I feel extremely frustrated that even the basic shapes are a nighmare, probably because I'm missing the reasons why things morphs randomly. I mean, if I use the 45° slope and expand it there's like 95% chance that the tip will be broken, even with the simple 2x1 slope.

I guess I need to practice more.

[Voxel Engineering apprenticeship requested]

Can someone repost that so It become readable by everyone? In in need of clarification too ?

[Extremely noob question on mining]

Aaah ok I was missing that part xD

The next big question will be how long will it take for me to be able to lift off, time will tell.

Thank you very much btw.

[Extremely noob question on mining]

Hello everyone!

I'm 3/4 hours into the game and I just noticed it won't let me mine outside of my tile on sanctuary, so this question came into my mind: how will I gather ores once the few veins inside my tile are gone? Do I have to leave the Planet this early? Market? Surface rocks? 

Thx in advance ?
