I have found the best way to get a relatively flat surface really easily is to use the alignment mod. But it dosen´t work very well when you´re deep down because the alignment mod flattens in a sphere around the core.
So, I think the curved ones aren't quite 90°, so you have some extra space for easier wiring. At least in my experience, it's very difficult to wire up two platforms that are touching
I think you should get the stone figurines on the 2 moons (they are reddish and bluish, you can find them on the surface or in caves and they are only for chess andnot for checkers)
do you mean back when you had to use two resin to extend your base in an octopus base shape? I can't really describe it better than that haha. I remember messing up because i didn't extend my base enough and couldn't make my base any bigger than what it was.
I remember. I joined in playing Astroneer back on Patch 119. Back then soil wasn't a resource and you landed your spaceships at your vehicle bays. Oh, and we had vehicle bays that were purpose-made for building all vehicles, as well as Printers for printing Tier 2 stuff like Medium Storage and Rover Seats. Good times... 😎
@@Ghostwolf82 I miss the vehicle bay. We need a better way to sort recipes now that there are so many, i resort to only learning the recipes i need. back then we also go recipes from the research pods instead of bytes as well.
Queen on her own color, each player should have a white square on their far right of the closest row to them. This means opposing kings will be across from each other and it is the same for queens. If I had to guess, blue would be white and pink would be black.
how long will that take? doing it with plastic is probably a lot "less stylish" but achievable much faster. is there a steam achievement for collecting the full non-holographic sets ?
I like the suites and the new platforms, but I was hoping for a bit more out of this patch, hope the next one is not too far off. I mean its not a game changer like the Jet Packs were. Looking forward to more terrain manipulation stuff and the proposed True Flat 2.0 (We will see :D )
Dude skinned bases would be so sick. The XL Curved platforms are 45s. I'm currently using them for turns in my production line. 2 of them make a 90° turn
I noticed you skirting around the edits of the parts as they were printing. You can walk through the printing now (whereas before the print would pause until you left the print area). :)
Next series idea Three platform challenge You are only allowed to use 3 platforms at a time A platform is in use if it has items on it or is connected to something else
I started my biggest base so far, right before this update came out. And now my design sucks compared to the shape of the new platforms 😭 And I love the new platforms! So my base will definitively need some Z1 cleaning. It just needs a ton of more hours to be able to go on youtube. It dont need to be as good as you youtubers projects... but it need to look like I tried to make it nice you know 😅
When I paint, the surface buckle a little, so my extenders and stuff fall down. Thats not okay. I promise that everything was smooth but after painting its full uf small bumps. Its _terrible_! Absolutely terrible.
As cool as it is, WHY A CHESS SET? What is the point of including it in a space-explorer-industry-base-builder game? This game is getting weirder and weirder.
So here's the thing, on Earth we use plumb bobs to determine how to make things level. This means equidistant from the focus of gravity (aka the core). So, the new behavior is correct behavior. The planets being so tiny (roughly ~2-4 km circumference compared to Earth's ~2200 km circumference. It's more like building on an asteroid than on a planet. Actually, adds to my respect of space agencies successfully landing "level" on an asteroid.

I read that the Muslims helped spread the popularity of the game all over the world in the first few centuries after it was created. But modern extremist clerics have often banned it as a distraction from a religious life. Also, the Christians tried banning it in 10th century. The wiki entry is really interesting.
much slower for me, but still fast enough: at first click all research items to get started and be able to build the research station. then collect a few big "research boulders" to get bytes for platforms, arms, etc. and finally (without leaving the starting planet) i put a research station in a cave near a pillar with research items spawning, and an arm and a few small wind turbines and small batteries. when i came back on the next day, a lot of bytes were available. later i did the same a few more times, and harder planets give more bytes but also take somewhat longer to research. now i have researched everything and 200k bytes left over. and i even just have built the big rocket to finally go to my fourth planet. after getting first tungsten, then second iron, titanium, and argon (and even lithium from the trade platform), this will be either for lots of quick lithium or probably a rather local base on Atrox for all the other three gases only :-)
using the alignment mod on the terrain tool, you start by building a level start of the base in its center. then it's your choice whether to continue using that modified tool to get a level base (following the curve of the planet and not flat) or switch it off again and build flat (and not level, not recommended for large distances which "tend to go towards the sky" after some distance in all directions). to reduce this effect, the starting point for the center of a base can be dug down a bit first. still not recommended if you plan to build a really large football/soccer field for the recreational sphere.
the difference between u and i :-) 8×8=64 to fill each square and get a *_full (filled) board,_* but only 2×16=32 or 2×12=24 for a *_full (complete) set_* of chess or checker pieces, and after putting all those pieces on the board, it is a *_full (complete) chess/checkers board._*
You can find the chessboard peices on Novus and Desolo btw Z1
Found a bunch myself. Got a Lapis King and Lapis Rook on Novus.
@@killerdoxen yeah I landed on Desolo and didn't even look for them but found 8 of them and same with Novus.
Does desolo have lapis or jasper?

I agree; Z really should retry the alignment mod with the updated flattening mechanics
FrostedPancake I use the Ali Mod at first then Un-Equip the ali mod and then just use Ctrl to get it flat.
I think the chess board would make a great table for gasses.
play connect 4 with the gases lol
Or solar panels, turbines, or batteries
jkn3rulz filling every slot with a small solar would probably generate a lot of power.
Or for chess.

“I think I made a small mistake”
Has a white tile on the bottom right of each side...
Would be cool to be able to put that 32 slot platform verticaly, so it can stand like a wall
Does anyone else remember when the platforms were a different system I know because I have been here since release or well that was in the beta
I remember when you had to have energy to mine

Ooo, image having a circular platform in the middle of a base with flood lights pointing out illuminating the base.
Queen on her own color, each player should have a white square on their far right of the closest row to them. This means opposing kings will be across from each other and it is the same for queens. If I had to guess, blue would be white and pink would be black.
Definitely going to make a circular base and optimize my cell layout
You dont Need plastic, because you can find These figures on any Planet in its own colour
I find some of them by researching the caves
how long will that take? doing it with plastic is probably a lot "less stylish" but achievable much faster.
is there a steam achievement for collecting the full non-holographic sets ?
queen goes on her colour, left hand side for the white
With the extra large curved platform. If you had 4/5 of them you could wrap them around your home base. Now that would look awesome.
If memory serves, the board has a proper alignment. As you're facing your side of the board, you should have a black square in the right corner.
Wow Z.
You made a Phil Swift reference.

The king and queen are opposite on either side, so a king won’t be across from a king, and a queen won’t be across from a queen.
Actually, they are supposed to be directly opposite each other. Each queen is on its own color.
Dude skinned bases would be so sick.
The XL Curved platforms are 45s. I'm currently using them for turns in my production line. 2 of them make a 90° turn

It's been a while since I last watched you z I missed you I love the new intro keep up the great work 😁❤
9:02 I have a side project to cover one of these in mini solar panels then mini rtgs
in chess, It's white on right and queen goes on it own color. problem the board you have does not have the black and white squares.
It does have two different colors. They aren't black and white but they're black and like dark grey
more importantly, the pieces are colored and not black and white.
Using a Crane with the drill will help mining significantly
Hey Z! There are apparently Stone versions of the Figurines that you can find on other planets.
Yeah, I found one
@@SuperKing2mil one year later now ... did you find them all now ? :-)
Next series idea
Three platform challenge
You are only allowed to use 3 platforms at a time
A platform is in use if it has items on it or is connected to something else
Love ur vids Z! Keep up the good work!
How did he not think to build the extra large rounded platform and put the new platforms around it, or around the shelter!!??
Remember zi you have to compensate for the plugs with the circular platforms
You should build one of at least everything on that world because you have so much
Z1 reminds me of Andy from the office.
A good thing to remember for chess is the queen matches her shoes, so if its the white queen, put it on a white square.
Since I’m immature I just remember “queen goes on the D” because they go on the D file and also because... you know... they’re female
@@KVGUP Creative, I like it
I love astroneer videos btw if you want easy soil just get a large rover with a RTG and 2 drill mods then you will get lots of soil

In Chess it's Always: Queen to Color ie white Queen on white square and black Queen on black square
I am so happy this game is coming to PlayStation I have wanted to play this game for years
Aren't the bishops supposed to be at the end of the sides and the rooks nexts to the king and queen
Best way to remember the set up is the Queen always takes it color.
what?
Since you seem to be into Space themed games, you might enjoy Cosmoteer quite a bit!
I think you’re supposed to put the curved platform around the shelter
Hey, why is the count down 5,4,3,2,1 but it last 10 seconds?
Why don't you unlock all the items? It will help you finding the new ones next time.
It goes white on right and queen on color
As cool as it is, WHY A CHESS SET? What is the point of including it in a space-explorer-industry-base-builder game?
This game is getting weirder and weirder.
when you unlocked everything and nothing to do with your friends this is a great past time.
If it wasn't weird, would it get your attention? 😆
Z: powers chess platform. Doesnt try to move piece to see if it has A.I. to play game against you xD
Honestly, that would be incredibly complex for what it is. Probably not going to have it.
It does not

Nice video. Now I know I'll never make that chess set as it's waaaaaaaaaaaay too time consuming.
very good vid and that skin really says Z1
Z1, I think they need to separate the jump button, from the Z &/or C button, when it comes to the jump jets/jet pack! Just saying!
i would love for the sandstorm to come back. and if they introduce mobs! oh man
We’d need base turrets. Yay, more stuff to eat up resources.
great video... bad math
8*8=64 lolz
He was doing the math for chess pieces. There are 32
yay more astroneer
Queen always goes on its color reason why I know that cuz I play chess dark queen darks square lake Queen you have them backwards
How do you have so many Bytes
i hope you know its 8x8 is 64 not 32
a full (complete) chess board has only half as many pieces as a filled board

8x8 = 16 good math Z 🤣🤣
Eternal and 32 is wrong too haha. Should be 64
He wasn’t counting all the slots, just how many chess pieces he needed. 8 pawns on each side and then the others makes 32 total
@@WOV2k yes, it would be difficult to move the first piece (or start a lot of killing) when there would be 64 pieces on the board :-)

Ctrl+click, you'll need the drill mod for harder surfaces, and alignment to get it "right"
