RUST Foundation Freehand Placement / Floor Stacking Tutorial — Transcript

Full transcript

1. 0:00one new wave of building techniques
2. 0:02which I missed during my break is floor
3. 0:04stacking technically this refers to one
4. 0:07of the applications of the free hand
5. 0:09placement of foundations why is this
6. 0:12great firstly you can change the
7. 0:14elevation of foundations freely and use
8. 0:17this to create double layers of ceilings
9. 0:20secondly this allows you to create multi
10. 0:22TC basis without having to use wall
11. 0:24stacking methods such as building out 8
12. 0:27squares and coming back with four half
13. 0:29moons to slightly offset foundations
14. 0:31finally it enables new types of
15. 0:34stability and roof bunkers one of the
16. 0:39reasons why this is not mainstream yet
17. 0:41is because getting the alignment of the
18. 0:43freehand place foundations right is not
19. 0:45trivial therefore I went back to school
20. 0:48and took lessons from the grand master
21. 0:50of floor stacking but cet'aeni this
22. 0:53channel is a goldmine for truly
23. 0:55innovative ideas and concepts in this
24. 0:57video I'll share the lessons I've
25. 0:59learned from him and my subsequent
26. 1:01research in a comprehensive format
27. 1:05floor stacking requires exact placement
28. 1:08of foundations
29. 1:10unfortunately the standard controls to
30. 1:12not allow precise movement and rotation
31. 1:14to hacks can help to increase your
32. 1:16placement accuracy to make rotational
33. 1:19placement more accurate lower the
34. 1:21sensitivity of your mouse some advanced
35. 1:24mice allow to lower the DPI with a
36. 1:26button another option is to use the menu
37. 1:29you find the mouse sensitivity settings
38. 1:31under options control
39. 1:33you can also set them directly from the
40. 1:35console via the command input dot
41. 1:38sensitivity the second hag is about
42. 1:41making our movements more accurate the
43. 1:44simplest approach is to equip flippers
44. 1:46or any other piece of attire that slows
45. 1:48down the movement speed of your avatar
46. 1:49such as heavy plate armor with these two
47. 1:53hacks it will be a lot easier to place
48. 1:55foundations with the required precision
49. 1:58[Music]
50. 2:04Laure sacking often requires to match
51. 2:07the exact orientation of two foundations
52. 2:09unless you have an exceptional sense for
53. 2:12whether two objects are parallel but
54. 2:14certainly recommends to use the compost
55. 2:16to maintain a fixed orientation what
56. 2:19worked best for me is to align the
57. 2:21center of the screen with one of the
58. 2:23small tics of the compass I would
59. 2:25attempt to Center the small tick inside
60. 2:27of the larger tick if you place
61. 2:30foundations with this reference it's so
62. 2:32much easier to place them in parallel to
63. 2:34each other the composite ticks also
64. 2:36provide orientation if you need to turn
65. 2:38by 90 or 120 degrees to place an offset
66. 2:41foundation on a different side one of
67. 2:54the key features of freehand placement
68. 2:55of foundations is that you can slightly
69. 2:57alter the height of adjacent foundations
70. 2:59which allows you to stack floors if
71. 3:03floor stacking is your goal but
72. 3:04certainly recommends to use those two
73. 3:07logs the small and the big one on the
74. 3:09twig foundations as orientation as a
75. 3:12rule of thumb you want the big log to be
76. 3:14at least as high as the small log this
77. 3:19way you can get to floor tiles
78. 3:20incredibly close to each other
79. 3:24[Music]
80. 3:29the next challenge is to determine how
81. 3:31close to place the freehand foundation
82. 3:34to the initial one here but so Tony
83. 3:36taught me to observe normally build
84. 3:38foundations equip a hammer and learn
85. 3:41where the poles of those triangles are
86. 3:43as you can see they overlap
87. 3:46substantially with the adjacent
88. 3:47foundations for squares the overlap is
89. 3:51less pronounced their poles overlap
90. 3:53partially this overlap is what you're
91. 3:56trying to recreate if you want the walls
92. 3:57to actually connect for multi DC bases
93. 4:01you want to create a little bit more
94. 4:03space so that the walls do not register
95. 4:05as connected this is the versatile
96. 4:07nature of free hand placement it's up to
97. 4:10your placement whether the offset
98. 4:12foundations are up kept by the central
99. 4:13or an external tc1 advanced trick to get
100. 4:20the placement right which I first saw in
101. 4:22a short clip by Cohen is to use a
102. 4:24floating floor tile as reference for a
103. 4:26foundation onto an existing foundation
104. 4:29plays the half ball and then the floor
105. 4:31tile jump onto the floor tile and
106. 4:33position yourself in the center as best
107. 4:35as you can then visually align the
108. 4:38foundations with the floor tile here you
109. 4:41can choose whether to try and recreate
110. 4:43the overlap of normally connected
111. 4:44foundations or whether to slightly move
112. 4:47it further out in order to create offset
113. 4:49foundations for multi DC bases
114. 4:52[Music]
115. 4:59so far all the approaches I showed you
116. 5:02still rely on your skill to position
117. 5:04yourself correctly however they have
118. 5:07been attempts to make the placement
119. 5:08foolproof one of those approaches which
120. 5:11I first saw on Rulon Ovilus channel is
121. 5:13the use of foundations on both sides to
122. 5:15guide the placement place a row of five
123. 5:18triangles and destroy the three ones in
124. 5:20the middle leaving a gap like this place
125. 5:23twig walls on the adjacent sides these
126. 5:26building blocks now guide the placement
127. 5:28of the freehand place foundation find
128. 5:31the position where it's still blue but
129. 5:32gets stuck between the walls you can now
130. 5:39place walls at different heights that
131. 5:41will stick to the walls next of them
132. 5:43this approach already helps considerably
133. 5:46with the placement an improved version
134. 5:52of this method by salty will allow you
135. 5:54to always get the placement perfect even
136. 5:57if you have the most shaky hands have
137. 6:00you ever top point slightly downwards
138. 6:02like this turn the mouse sensitivity to
139. 6:04zero crouch and place a row of five
140. 6:08triangles then as before destroy the
141. 6:12three ones in the middle and that walls
142. 6:14to the remaining triangles now build a
143. 6:19square foundation and another row of
144. 6:21four triangles destroy the square in the
145. 6:25central triangle then place low walls
146. 6:27left and right of the gap that this
147. 6:29created if you jump into the triangle
148. 6:32and move back this will position you
149. 6:34exactly in the middle of the gap again
150. 6:37place the foundation at the position
151. 6:39where it is still blue but gets start
152. 6:41between the walls so far I have seen
153. 6:47three major applications of freehand
154. 6:49placement the first one is to stack
155. 6:51ceilings as for example in but Satomi's
156. 6:542x2 since it's two parts are at a
157. 6:57different height level it creates a
158. 6:59double layer of ceilings another new
159. 7:02meta is to build a ring of raised
160. 7:03foundations around an existing footprint
161. 7:06this not only allows to have the roof of
162. 7:08the base protected by a double layer of
163. 7:10ceilings it also enables new types of
164. 7:13piece
165. 7:14[Music]
166. 7:19the second one is to create multi TC
167. 7:22bases without having to build out eight
168. 7:24squares this for example is a footprint
169. 7:27by bots itani way created a three-part
170. 7:29multi TC base it works very well if the
171. 7:33part you intend to offset is just one or
172. 7:35two foundations such as in my recent
173. 7:37quick and dirty multi GC base video the
174. 7:52third one is to create previously
175. 7:53impossible bunkers
176. 7:55since free hand placement allows to
177. 7:56disconnect the sockets of building
178. 7:58blocks a height offset floor tile will
179. 8:01not receive stability from a neighboring
180. 8:03wall which allows to build sneaky new
181. 8:05types of stability bunkers further it
182. 8:10allows offsetting walls to enable old
183. 8:12school roof bunkers as seen in a recent
184. 8:14video by voiceless gaming I hope you
185. 8:20found this tutorial on free hand
186. 8:22placement helpful since I referenced a
187. 8:24lot of other builders I will maintain a
188. 8:26list of links in the description if I
189. 8:29got one of the references wrong please
190. 8:31let me know and I will update the list
191. 8:33take care of yourselves
