Nudge Controls?

647 TuckerAeronauticalLabs  8.9 years ago

I've heard these mentioned a few times now, and I don't really know what they are or how to use them. I'm sure it's just something I overlooked while I was binding my controls, but I would like to be sure.

    @Noman0rumeral if you have a keyboard with a num pad you can use it on mobile if you can connect it.

    @NovaTopaz @JolanXBL nah you actually can nudge stuff to be completely floating free of everything with no issues, it will still maintain the connection it had when you placed it. Mirroring the part won't work properly, but the original definitely will

    @JolanXBL I think what @Skua meant is that you don't need to deal with, say, a fuselage blocks lack of connection points when near the center, and etc. Basically, connection points are infinite as long as it's attached anyway(I made a wing gun work on a fuselage block by nudging it away from the wing and on to the fuselage block :) )

    @Skua It doesn't ignore connections; the part still needs to be in contact with the piece you are originally connected to, otherwise it will just fall off.

    @Brields95 I can basically no longer deal with building on mobile because I miss nudging too much

    @KINGxACE99 yeah. It's the number pad by default, just make sure numlock is turned on

    Alright, I have the PC version. Are the controls listed in the key bindings settings?

    They're only in the PC version, I'm afraid. Basically they move parts by a very small amount, while totally ignoring clipping and connection restrictions
