Newbie builder question

[warped narwhal]

I have a question for any builder out there, is there a way to adjust building item's height manually? and to control the building item's position manually as well?

[valid frost]

Depends are on PC, PS5 or mobile? Also are we talking solo or guild base?

If you're on PC and building in solo and not the guild base there is this near little tool

Although this only for an item's xyz position

[quasi turret]

Why can't I use this tool?

[valid frost]

Are you on PC?

[quasi turret]

Yes

[valid frost]

Building in solo or guild base?

[quasi turret]

Base guild or solo , None of them are allowed.

[valid frost]

Do you have 3 options after hitting r in build mode?

[quasi turret]

Yes

123

[valid frost]

3rd should be move right?

[quasi turret]

All three of those are unusable except for r.

[valid frost]

Yeah

[quasi turret]

I'll record my screen for you to see.

[valid frost]

Are you rank 5?

[quasi turret]

Rank 5 ?

I'll record my screen for you to see.

[valid frost]

Gotta be rank 5 to post pictures #💎check-your-level

[quasi turret]

Level 9

[valid frost]

Oh ok post away then

[quasi turret]

Wait

@valid frost

In solo mode, it works sometimes and sometimes not.

[valid frost]

Is that solo? Where is that? Kinda looks like the guild base to me

[valid frost]

Hm I mean could be a bug as with the issue where after using move or replace you could build without re-entering the build mode, am on a hiatus from the game till after Easter so my info cut-off date is basically last Sunday. At least regarding what it's like playing the game myself.

[quasi turret]

yes

[warped narwhal]

Thank you, this answered my question... I'll try it out later

[valid frost]

So you are saying it doesn't work in the guild base at all and only sometimes in solo?

[quasi turret]

YUP

[valid frost]

If you have any questions feel free to ask here or in the forwarded thread. Can't do any tutorials or stuff like that for a while. But if you got questions how I built something I'll do my best to explain in text.

[valid frost]

Is that similar to the bug as with the building UI being somewhat unresponsive after using any of the r menu stuff?

[quasi turret]

Hey, bro

[valid frost]

Yeah?

[quasi turret]

Do you know any websites that guide building an Asian dragon?

Like this.

[valid frost]

Nope mechanically it's pretty straightforward. Problem is the artistic side of it. Had a look the thread already. That's just my two cents on that.

[quasi turret]

I want to build a dragon that looks very similar to that picture, just almost like it.

[valid frost]

As I said technically it's only excessively using the move tool and the fish lamps and paper lanterns. Artistically it's much tougher because you have to a long term vision of how parts should align.

[bronze pilot]

the three arrows are not yet implemented on global. asaik CN just got them pretty recently

[valid frost]

Do you mean these arrows?

[valid frost]

For smaller features that more importantly don't really require any translation efforts I think the CN to global port roadmap is much more hazy.

This thing would be almost impossible to build or at least would've driven me insane without the move tool.

[valid frost]

Just realised that I already forwarded this picture into this thread

[valid frost]

Although what I think matters more to the builder community is whether it's unlocked for the guild base and there in fact it is still disabled for some unfathomable reason.

[warped narwhal]

The problem I currently have is that I can't hang lanterns right under a roof because they always get positioned on top rather than under it, and if I put a wall nearby as an anchor they would snap to that instead

even when I turned off the auto snap, they still somehow latch to the nearest structure

[valid frost]

Any lantern or a specific one?

[warped narwhal]

any hanging lanterns
