I'm sure that the loud music was just on purpose so you never ever forget this video and the ear-pain again 😹

I'm glad it looks just like the thumbnail. That makes me happy.

[@mcastro3679]

Game I'm trying to expand my raft but it stop me after 1st row of ceiling tiles I have seen many videos but when I put the thatch roof tops then try to add more foundation it won't let me

[@callmepopyallfather2473]

@@mcastro3679 on ascended they changed it. you can't use foundations out past the raft anymore. i don't know what made them change that, as it was a better system, but that's just how it is now. you can use basically 9 foundations on the raft, and then only ceilings past that. ofc, you want to leave one of the foundations, usually the middle one, as a ceiling or hatch so that you can easily access the raft to drive it.

[@jeremiahwilkins5837]

I always start on Ragnarok and work until I get the raft unlocked, and then I build a raft base. It was the best way to build a base even inside someone else's build restriction area. When starting up it was very common for a large base to be in the spawn location.

[@Yodesla]

well i hope my video will help you on your journey on the island for now! Still have not seen a boat like this so far on official! Everyone is going (no middle/back) foundation. Which is very weak.

[@cuemilius]

To lower the foundadtion on xbox, click right trigger to start placing and you'll see the circle thingy if you want to change it's rotation, then just pull the right thumb stick up and down

[@kira4208]

There is no timer on picking stuff up anymore in this game

[@realBluTV]

you can lower with pillar still you just need to use a fence foundation first. 1 extra step but its still available.

[@md14coldworld]

Another way is you can switch out the middle foundation for a ramp going down. Then place a roof under connected to the ramp which blocks off the bottom.

[@anthonymahoney2698]

So then it’s safe????

[@Capybars963]

i was actually able to use this and make the gap even smaller to where only one small corner of the foundation was gapped so u can still drive it but its basically completely sealed off

[@ArronLupus1997]

I managed to do it an alternate way, almost like how many would used to do with the fence foundation, just set the fence foundation and a regular foundation should snap to it. Great video btw!

[@Yodesla]

oo what do u mean?

[@ArronLupus1997]

@@Yodesla a different way to sink the foundations, place a fence foundation to where it ends and covers the hole on the raft when you hide the sail, then you can snap foundations off of that

[@ryanroyrn]

@ArronLupus1997 Did you try it in ASA?)

[@ArronLupus1997]

@@ryanroyrn yes

[@CryptolockerMD]

@@Yodesla you can put a fence foundation, snap a pillar to the end, and it will give foundation snap points in both 2x2/3x3 arrangements at sunken level of the fence foundation

[@fromheartforyoursoul4592]

why did you not place the last wall, i wanted to see if there are really no gaps or if it looks bad

[@AzuSwe]

Gotta say the music went a bit crazy at 3:20 and it is a bit loud. And rip Yodesla. We not gonna get any rts content for another 30000 hours when he is finally done with Ark Survival Ascended

[@anarchymedes6574]

Hiya thanks for this. I tried it very carefully many times last night, but failed. I got it to connect just as you demonstrated with the correct foundations aligned to their correct connections and the right gaps and depth sunk to etc., but (maybe since one of the patches the last few days) I could not grab the tiller of the raft at all. I worked round it by using a triangle foundation at the back which allowed me to get low enough to grab the teller of the raft on top, but protected all but the tiniest gaps below. Using ceiling tile extensions I was then able to create my wedge shaped landing craft / house / Mobile Terranosaurus trap and pet store with a large stone gate at the back.

[@Peelbacks]

I'm in the same boat (pun intended) and I wonder if a patch "fixed it" so we can no longer reach the tiller anymore. Maybe he'll do an update video.

[@Siouxlander]

Also, Thank You for this! Just wish I saw your video before yesterday when I just built my boat. LoL. Gonna build a new one now!😂

[@Lazy_Smurf]

To add to this, use the Stone wall secret door, it will save you item count on your raft builds!

[@Yodesla]

See. Now This is a good comment.

[@Lazy_Smurf]

@@Yodesla there is a way to lower foundations with pillars using fence foundations, the snap points are very finicky, but you only need 3-5 wood fence foundations and one pillar. the result is a similar thing to your design. and it can be boarded from underneath but you cant hit the raft with a pike. the gap is also a little larger

[@Sas_HeatherC]

Yes you can absolutely sink foundations. Cwnter pillar near shore and lower, ceiling on top of pillar, quarter wall, place foundations and profit

[@bigbear4162]

bad idea you can still get one shot by large swimmer dinos then lose the whole base and anything in it they atk the raft and bypass the foundations.

[@fmbabydoful]

Is there a way to prevent that? I was building this to try and save the raft but went traveling and still got sunk.

[@legendaryjimbob7685]

@@fmbabydoful Not really. Dropping honey and heading to shallow water is pretty much all you can do

[@Onrain20]

Alternatively, just place a ceiling window where the rutter is and then add walls underneath it and another ceiling to complete the box.

[@Yodesla]

Too many structures.

[@smokewheat-xr1xg]

I find it funny that people found out you can sink foundations with the help of a fence foundation, but didn't realise theres an option on the house.

Did I miss which button to press on controller to actually lower foundation or did you just forget to say it???😮

[@LKD70]

You can place foundations lower on a raft if you snap two pillars down.

[@Yodesla]

[@LKD70]
