Question about base building

[Slithershot]

So, I know base building has tools and stuff to be used.... but they're super user unfriendly imo. It was a long time ago, but I don't even remember it being this difficult on live. Or maybe I've just forgotten the tricks of manipulating stuff.

 

That being said, are there any plans currently to make base building more.... user friendly? Such as the Wildstar or RIFT interfaces, for instance? I'd love to dabble more in base building but by the time I'm halfway through a room I'm exhausted because I'm absolutely terrible at lining things up properly without any way to gauge where stuff will actually end up.

Not sure what the answer to your question will be, though it'll probably be low on the totem pole. The base code is notoriously spaghettified and a pain to work in.

 

Regarding tips and tricks, head down to the Base Builders section where there are many builders with suggestions and a handy Cheat Sheet thread.
