    That said. Creative of course. Is it possible to copy/paste selections, parts or whatsoever between builds (same block size, other core) ?
    Any tutorial to the advanced functions of the N menu ? I see things like BP parts, lists... I really need an insight on this.

    Thanks in advance.
    Cheers :)

    To copy parts from 1 ship to another you can use the same principle Jeff Randall used in the below video. Time stamp 10:43


    Basically you pick the N menu, select the bit you want to copy and pick Copy. Then pick the Remove Selection button. Then go to the ship where you want to paste it, select a block and then Paste the selection on, then move it into the position you want.

    "the minus button" , not "remove selection",
    I keep tapping the selection button, no wonder I struggled to copy stuff from one shipt to another. i have manged to do this, but that minus button was catching me every time. (The different meaning attached to "clear"/"replace"/"remove" is not well covered in the tooltips.
    Thanks for this clip.
