Great work! If Starbase doesn't come out with a creative mode I can see this becoming a go-to tool for shiprights.

Any thoughts on adding attachment plates and bolts?

The way they were put together I thought they were sausages at first haha

But that is great for scale, well done!

Having an issue with saving and loading.
Clicking on 'save' takes forever to do anything. It kept saying 'saving' for almost an hour before i had to quit.
Of cause, the loading button did nothing since nothing was saved.

C:\Users\******\AppData\LocalLow\DefaultCompany\starbase beams\ was empty.

Any suggestions to this issue? Need anything to be sent to you?

 

[Okim]

Ignore me. Everything is ok now!
Had to manually make a 'save' subfolder for it to register and work.

 

[Okim]

Is there a way to completelly remove the default grid?
It doesn`t seem to be responding to middle mouse...

Or is there a way to move your existing creations around the working area? Like select + drag?

Currently making a screenshot is a bit hard with the grid stuff showing up there...

Strange..it should automatically create a save folder if there is none, and the default grid can't be removed i did this on purpose, you can just build somewhere else though just move far enough away from it, click on a beam and click the build button, the object will be placed infront of the camera.
