The Ultimate Guide to Workers and Resources Building Editor

Holy crap, it's one hour long

[@ion-95]

Yeah it's a big one. But it should have covered pretty much everything

[@spencerprice7085]

Wild that your content doesn’t have more views. Your speech is very eloquent and easy to listen to.

[@ion-95]

Thanks, hopefully the channel grows over time, I need to upload more for it to grow more

[@kyokyodisaster4842]

WOOP, a new Ion video!

[@ion-95]

You know it, and it's a whole hour and a half long this time, but that won't be the norm I swear!

[@trixtersepicadventure4387]

Is there really only like 50 building parts you have access to in the editor or am I missing a button somewhere??? Like how there's just 4 different lamps under the Parking lot Lamps tab, or how there's just 11 under Prefab 1 tab?

[@ion-95]

If you've installed mods they'll have their own section in the editor, but yes there isn't much to work with. The building editor has been quite neglected.

[@Mr_Russian_Guy]

very very nice! You should make a tutorial about adding a custom house

[@Rymrgand-r5k]

On the subject of placing the workers waiting on the platform, if you select it and use the mousewheel it will move them up or down.

[@ion-95]

Now that's a big detail I missed, does it work for connections too because that would make cableways work.

[@Rymrgand-r5k]

@@ion-95I just tested it and it appears to work as well. Doesn't seem to work with road or rail connections.

[@ion-95]

@@Rymrgand-r5kYeah that makes sense

[@antonisauren8998]

How to load up existing mod to set up paths, particle emmiters etc in the easiest way? Create new building with custom nmf pulling mod mesh, save as new, merge configs by hand?

[@ion-95]

That's a potential solution, I'd have to test it to see if it works

[@林二郎-k5h]

Good Tutorial

[@ion-95]

Thanks

Hi, do you know how to rip existing vanilla.buildings to use their elements in asset creation?

[@ion-95]

No unfortunately it's not possible as they're all pre made complete assets not made with the building editor

[@younghumphrey06]

Hello are we able to create a customs office in the B.E?

[@ion-95]

Unfortunately not, they're part of the maps editor

[@danielturbide8554]

Where have you gone mate?

[@ion-95]

Just working on the 8th episode right now, just takes time and I don't always have a lot of free time unfortunately, I can't commit too much time to KZbin given it doesn't earn me any money.

[@jonathonmcdvitte2947]

Great video been waiting for a detailed explanation video for q while now i can try and make a mod haha. P s do you know is there a way to edit a mod your subscribee to already? There's a couple kf mods i love using but arent quite made properly and would like to edit is it possible? Thanks.

[@ion-95]

You can edit the text files of mods in their workshop folders. You can also reverse the process in the workshop section to bring a building into your editor. This is not something I filmed and made in the video unfortunately so if you have difficulties with it I could probably even make another video showing that process off.

[@jonathonmcdvitte2947]

@@ion-95 yeah I edit the txt files a lot probably more than I should haha it's just a perfect example is there is a mod called hardware store I love using it as the author made it store nearly everything but it has one factory connection and needs an oil an ore and more factory connections to make it useful so would be great to know how to edit them. If you do make a video it will be greatly appreciated thanks again for the content.

[@ion-95]

Yeah I might make a video on it, sounds like a lot to do haha

Hello, I want to build a multiplatform between train/bus. I would like to set a path inside the building for a vehicle to go from the entrance a certain route and exit out and I can't seem to set it. The bus always behaves strangely. Do you know how to do it? Thank you

[@ion-95]

Would need to see some screenshots to see what's not working. I know there's some limitations to making vehicles move about inside a building so it may also be impossible

[@TheElafis]

@@ion-95 I would like to have three bus stations angled, but I only have one point for each station that can be moved

[@ion-95]

As in when you move the stations about you only have one of the points you can drag to change the size and angle? That's probably a bug.

[@TheElafis]

between the rectangle where the vehicles stop and the entry point to the building I have only one point to move. I'd like the bus to go around the station and not go straight from the platform to the exit.

[@ion-95]

There's limitations to the AI unfortunately, I think what you're describing is something that can't be done without doing something like road in connections and road out connections
