    Hey my fellow Empyrion builders. Out of curiosity, is there currently a single block in the game that would allow a seamless connection as shown in my screenshot? Or does no such block exist?

    Thanks in advance blockconnect.jpg !

    'Cut Corner Double A1' will join two of them. Nothing that joins all three I think.

    I would suggest finding the blocks thread and copying this post into that, but I dont think Ive ever seen a suggested block get added.

    Ahh thanks to both of you. I wasn't aware there was a block thread! Thanks for the info.

    I still can't believe the programmers have not done any work on a block picker/sugester, it should highlight the blocks that will connect to a given block. For someone that knows what blocks will fit the others it is probablyh a 1 or 2 day project

    Someone has to design the block in 3D program to provide it to the developers so it can be introduced into the game as a block.

    There are a number of blocks still "missing". I submit missing items regularly. Eleon has been pretty good about implementing these, though sometimes it does take a while.

    If that happens then they should be compensated for their work

    Hence "sometimes it does take a while", but I can and do recall quite a few blocks added - the odd-shaped, half-ramps with cut corners for one. The small, flat, quarter-wedge, the little tiny baby cube.. just to name a few.
