    IF I made a box 200x200, could I create a cavern within & blueprint & spawn it, with the caves inside box, If so is there an easy way of creating a box 200x200? or a blueprint of box?.
    cheers.

    I am trying to create a concrete "BOX" dimensions, 200wide 200long about 40 high, which I wanted to use as a template, for building underground, & for my caverns, I started building it in creative mode, it is just concrete & a base block, before I finish all the sides, I wanted to test it out in a blue print, but I cannot seem to place it, am I missing something?

    Edite
    Gave up on the real large boxes at the moment, cannot seem to spawn them,

    A smaller experimental version,of my box base cavernettes, concrete boxes with lighting, that can be used as a base or just to add sections to create a complex, practical &/or decorational, digging one out in real time

    Added a few essentials to make it more "basey".

    I'm going to be busy with work the next few days then I'll write up a guide on how to do it all and the limitations of it. Cave blueprints are more feasible to use in custom scenarios because the game can automatically remove all the extra dirt for you. Otherwise you'll need to dig out the whole area by hand and then spawn your custom cave blueprint in with cheats.

    These are all amazing.

    Do terrain modifications from digging preserve in scenarios? That's gonna have to be the solution for cleaning out the edges.

    I've decided it's not cheating to change the game mode in survival for placing bases. I chock it up to Alpha status, and eventually those problems will be properly addressed.

    I gotta say, these builds are stunning. They would be really great when mixed with more normal PoIs and containing things like generator rooms and living quarters etc.

    Great work guys!

    No, terrain that is dug does not get saved with the scenario. You have to use POIs, like in the guide I made.

    Updated my Golden pyramid cavern, I think the Talons & Hexapods, are using the energy of the Pyramid to create "seed worlds", & Portaling them out, to consoles around the world.
    My guess anyway :)

    Edit: Same chamber, but with "Bloom", switched on, which I prefer, for certain chambers.

    Thought I would make a little psychedelicy maze to connect a couple of caverns, Secret entrance, to my psychedelic maze, through buried yacht, a couple of small chambers, last chamber, is a "orb" chamber, where orbs are dispotched to the surface at night times :).


    Yacht, is not my creation, it is from "workshop" Ferreti 150 motor yacht

    Update extended route.

    I was asking about sharing "saves", in another post, which I thought could be a fun feature, I thought I would try & share a recent save from my game, where I've created my rainbow caverns Alpha8, entrances to tunnels,are around my base, @treehouse, @coloured pyramid,
    My home planet/base,(rainbow caverns) is called Namak.

    I am not 100% sure if this is how you share saves, I zipped zipped a recent save, & put it on Google drive,
    linl: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1I9PJg6UwdlWvUNnSvohgdIHRl_eNmD2h
    If this is not allowed, or I've done it wrong, I apologise & will remove.

    If this does work, I hope you enjoy touring my rainbow caverns mk1.
    A few pics.
    edit: pics not showing, cannot seem to remove them.

    A recent walk/tour around my "Rainbow caverns"/Base, At the moment I am keeping them simple,
    Dying for the finished game, so I can create a "Rainbow world", Somewhere I can go & chill, when I need a rest, at taking over the Galaxy/Universe.

    Loving Alpha10,
    This game has something for everyone, I might not be a great builder, but I love the freedom it gives you, to create to your own style.
    Here is the beginnings of my new Rainbow Cavern base.

    Extended the base a bit, started my glass/cavern, under water base, loving the glass tunnels underground, which I expect to have many miles of soon:).

    It was hard leaving my rainbow cavern system in alpha8 :(.
    But I've now got a good start, on new alpha10 "Rainbow base":).
    Got a bit of a cavern system going now, I'm starting to get lost already.
    Loving the "glass",
    Soon I am going to make a "HV track", out of glass, that sits above/through hill/mountain tops, connecting islands, with jumps.
