The tip about the phantom block where a neat trick. Haven’t thought about that one. Nice tip! 😀

[@nul1fe]

that show oxygen update is soo much better, so annoying when looking for leaks, but its seems those days are past us now

[@servit0r]

The building tool is very essential yet I never explored all its features - so big thanks for that guide

[@WdyWP]

What a great collection of tips!! I know I will be using a few of these soon!!!

[@akevabanshee3632]

During the "Lock" Tool section of the video you forgot to talk about Ctrl+RMB Copy of block textures and Shapes. This feature copies all textures on all sides of a block even if they are all different textures and colors. In addition it copies orientation of the target block, the Shape and type of target block. Even if you have another block type selected in your hotbar.

[@Spanj]

great point, thanks Akeva!

[@-werksmith2078]

Thanks Spanj! I have 5000+ hours into EGS and I had forgotten about the second color palette! And highlighting an entire structure I did not know existed.

[@CuriousMind477]

I learned just about all of my building skills from watching you Spanj. Whether that is a compliment or not, well....... 🙂 If you feel up for another video like this, it might be worth doing a "Greatest Hits" when it comes to common block shape combinations. I know that learning those helped a ton

[@solospirit4212]

Very handy guude as usual. Thanks 😎 It's been ages since I've done any building (been in PC upgrade mode..and it's taken forever to get it done) Time to fire up the Imagination again and go lay down some blocks....and explore the new tools 😁

[@RollinShultz]

Big thanks to the phantom block issue, it's been killing me. I did have some success with the symmetry plane where one side had a space where I couldn't place a block, but the symmetrical side placed it for me when I placed the other side instead. Still proper use of the tools should help greatly.

[@stevenbradley6243]

Thanks Spanj, have a good day byyeee😃 Seriously: Always entertaining and informative - I love it!

[@stevelunde5683]

Thanks Spanj. Your tutorials really help me.

[@redblackpaws9287]

Really good video

[@LeeAndrewVideos]

Thanks for this, been around for years but never created anything because the tools are not intuitive for me. Great video!

[@teakeycee]

Thank you, Spanj! Excellent tutorial.

[@rowan5574]

Hello Spanj, I found this series a few days ago and wish I'd found it before I built anything! I've only built a base, and rebuilt it with improvements after using the original in my current game. I tried to build a sv but it looked like a giant paperweight. Perhaps I'll retry at a later date but, I'm working on getting the material for your Nightshade MKV. I like that it has warp capability, as the warp core is friggen huge and seems hard to put into an already built ship, like the Nightshade MKVI. Thanks for all the info it'll surely come in handy as I learn more and progress throughout the game. Take care and have a stupendous week.

[@d00mnoodle]

this guy's quite good at tutorials huh? :p

[@Spanj]

Thanks D00m ;)

[@MicaelN]

I got a question, I want to start going in Reforged eden but when I look for it in workshop, there a few diffrent ones. could you please tell me the one most ppl use? thanks beforehand and thanks for all videos, you tought me alot. Peace

[@Spanj]

Look for the one published by Ravien_ff

[@zeerog56]

is it posible to copy base parts to a cv? i mean build a cv plateau and paste a copyed base part on it?

[@Spanj]

yes, but you may make that CV invalid for survival mode as some base blocks cannot be on a CV, creative mode will let you do it though

[@ao8317]

Is it possible to get a mining license or similar from Polaris so you can mine?

[@Spanj]

nope, just have to find some unclaimed asteroids

[@_McMurder_]

DUDE WTF been working on a build all daay issoloating parts and saving them to the list and now the list is gone jyst gone fucking nowhere just gone? maybe tell ppl that the parts list just deletes itsself
