A custom base building mod that adds several custom base parts and QOL tweaks to overall building mechanics. This mod contains all of my base parts and building tweaks that I had in Eucli-ea previously.
Compatible with Desolation.
I will be maintaining this mod from now on vs Eucli-ea and will not be carrying over parts.

The tasty treat that adds custom base objects and enhanced base building mechanics!
Current compatibility: Desolation (2.61) | NOT YET UPDATED FOR 27-7-20 EXPERIMENTAL
IMPORTANT NOTES
ALWAYS BACKUP YOUR SAVES PRIOR TO ANY LARGE UPDATE. IF YOU SAVE WITHOUT THIS MOD OR ANY OTHER MODS THAT INCLUDE CUSTOM BASE PARTS, THOSE PARTS WILL BE REMOVED FROM YOUR SAVE FILE. THIS IS A MECHANIC THAT WE HAVE NO CONTROL OVER SADLY.
CURRENTLY, ANY PLAYERS IN A GROUP VISITING A BASE CONTAINING ANY CUSTOM BASE PARTS THAT DON’T HAVE THE MOD INSTALLED OR ARE ON CONSOLE MIGHT BLUE-SCREEN / CRASH. THE ISSUE HAS BEEN REPORTED TO HELLO GAMES REGARDING CUSTOM BASE PARTS AND CROSSPLAY COMPATIBILITY.
THERE WILL BE A CONFLICT WITH ANY OTHER BASE BUILDING MOD (IE GUMSK’S BASE BUILDING) THAT MODIFIES THE TABLES LISTED UNDER THE “DEFAULT TABLES MODIFIED” SECTION BELOW. YOU MUST MERGE ALL BASE BUILDING MODS IN GENERAL IF YOU WANT TO COMBINE SEVERAL AT ONCE.
CUSTOM BASE ITEMS
179 custom base parts:
101 Nexus parts
5 Nexus themed “basic” snappable parts (preview)
21 Space spawns
24 Custom colored lights
23 Tron themed parts (modeled from metal parts)
4 Chroma key floors and walls
1 Derelict freighter prop (preview)
Nexus Parts
All Nexus parts have custom collisions to make removal and decoration easy.
Some parts offer snapping abilities (large props do not handle snapping well in general).
The largest props have a 1/10th scale version for flexibility.
Nexus Basic Parts
There are 5 parts in an early state that are using custom models via NMSDK (they will not change shape or offset in the future).
I might add more in the future to include triangles, curved walls and floors, and ramps.
They are fully snappable and use vanilla snap files for easy integration.
Space Spawns
All space spawns have been adjusted to be either level with the ground or elevated within reason.
Light strength has been lowered to not be so blinding with other surrounding features.
The “farm-able” items will not be destroyed and are permanent unless you decide to remove them.
Custom Colored Lights
There are 3 types of lights: spotlights, ambient lights, and wall lights.
The ambient lights have a wide spread of light useful for many things.
The spotlights are more concentrated (modeled after WinderTP’s spotlight in Eucli-ea).
The wall lights have the least amount of light output and are useful for smaller areas.
Tron Basic Parts
These are metal basic parts that have been re-skinned with a custom glow overlay.
These parts will be enhanced in the near future to minimize material stretching and to balance the overall glow.
Research is currently being done to see if the glow could colored on the fly.
Chroma Key Parts
Simple chroma key walls and floors useful for many things.
Derelict Freighter Props
I’ve included the heater prop to start.
More items and props will be added eventually as things are updated to allow me to view the models.
BASE BUILDING ENHANCEMENTS
Turned off placeholder collision checking.
Enabled building of all base parts anywhere within the base radius (free standing doors, etc).
Removed planet, region, planet base, and freighter base limits.
Enabled freighter parts to be built on planets.
Disabled removal of attached decoration for vanilla base items.
Enabled scaling and rotation of base items.
Selectively enabled base items for “surfacenormal” placement.
Set all ghost count overrides to 1 to reduce snappoint ghosting.
Added all custom base decorations to the BASEBUILDINGCOSTSTABLE to prevent tear down issues.
NOTE: You’ll notice that some base items will “hug” the surface you are trying to place them on. This attribute in the base building table is called SurfaceNormal. All of the basic parts EXCEPT for the glass floor panels are configured this way. This allows for unique and easy angled placement. If you need something flat, use the glass floor panel to start, and then you can snap additional items off of that.

OTHER INFO
I will no longer be maintaining Eucli-ea so please don’t ask. That project is too much work and isn’t sustainable to keep up with updates. I will be updating this to the best of my abilities, but it isn’t my sole focus at this time. This mod is to help provide some cool stuff for new updates since Eucli-ea is on hold.
