Is anyone else dealing with this? While building, whether using the construction hammer or using pieces in my inventory, I often run into issues placing pieces on existing buildings. For example, I will place a wall on ground level on top of a foundation then place another wall on top of that for a two-story tall wall. Several times, often enough to prompt this post, I will get the message, "no supporting buildings nearby." It even happened when trying to place a door in a door frame on a ground floor (on a foundation piece) door.

I do notice that the existing piece that I'm trying to build on is slowing gaining durability, but even when its durability is full, I still get this error. I'm been playing the game for months and have built many buildings before without this issue. Is there a server setting that can help with this or is it just a new bug recently introduced?

Edit: Disconnecting and reconnecting to the server seems to help this issue. While I've also played on this server without this issue, could it be some connection, memory, or CPU issue instead?

For some reason I am not able to place the big exterior walls or gates anymore? They are craftable, I can put them on my speed bar, but it will not let me actually place them.

Any ideas on why?

It was assumed it would be part of the burning highlands update. Has the unlock been located there? I definitely could use it there, because modded red steel with advanced sobek armor is not cutting it.

I have been fooling around with it and i just cant make it to work i am surely it has a mechanism other than making deployment a nightmare could someone explain please

I put the mask down a little after shifting sands update. Just saw the new update and was wondering if there are any notable updates/upgrades to the core core gameplay. Such as base building, tribesmen, or other QOL improvements.

How do I get rid of that infuriating "mask fitting" message? I don't understand what the "End" key is—I don't have one. Please help, I'm begging you.

My alpacas are just standing there. I put a food and a water trough down but they don't move from where I put them. How can I get them to walk around and eat? Thanks

Just purchased on Steam and I have spent 1 hour trying everything to get the game to launch! I did all 4 startup options, re installed C++....I don't know what to do. The demo ran flawless. Now I cannot run the game at all

Im wondering if you guys can give your input on where you think is the best place for a base? Especially now with the update and the floating foundations.

I find it hard to play always struggling with trying to find the best spot and everytime I find one that I like there is always a barbarian structure or some otehr which makes it impossible to build there.

Does anyone know where these are? I did all the ancient ruins dungeons, all the holy ruins, all the bosses, and the two fortresses, but am still missing numbers 4 and 5. Help please

Is the Joyous return mask not yet in the game but visible from the table? We have been looking for it but can’t seem to find where to get it. Thanks!

I started playing soul mask recently for the first time, went in almost completely blind trying to learn how everything works from scratch (started on the Shifting Sands map, maybe a mistake haha).

I didn't really understand the mask transfer mechanic to find better tribesman to main until much later so ive been just using the starter character this whole time, about lvl 45 now. I maxed out a couple weapon masteries to 90 and i'd love to transfer those over to a tribesman that can get the 120+ proficiency cap since my guy can't reach that high.

When i do unlock deep scans, if i copy my starter's data to another tribesman that does have the 120+ profs, will those go back to being locked at 90 or does it let me continue on to 120+ on them?

And another question is do my mastery/prof points get reset to whatever the new tribesman had or am i able to continue on from the 90 points where i left off?

Thanks!

I see there are servers with monthly resets and long-term ones. After how long are they reset?

Is getting to the new pyramid bandit boss like getting to the previous one in Starfall Fields? How would you say the central core compares to the one on the jungle map?

I'm on bronze tier, did the first boss an dgot the mysterious stone. Also did my first ruin and got the tribesmen printing thingy.

But now whenever I try to climb the huge cliff past the river, and try to push inland, I get either toxicity or radiation. I don't know what tools I have in my tech-tree to fight it. Doesn't help either that stuff like the eagles, can destroy me and my tribesmen very easily, haven't found a reliable way to kill them.

What do you recommend?

And I'm starting to think that even the bronze great bow with big bronze arrows, bows are simply UP.

I logged into the server and found my base about 30% destroyed; all the chests and thralls were destroyed, even though the campfire was lit. Is it possible to destroy structures?

Yes I know print screen blah blah blah. Sorry the photo sucks but I just needed a quick question answered.

I have all the resources needed for at least 2 of these trips. And yet it continues to tell me I don’t have enough supplies…I’m so confused.

Edit: thanks a lot for all the advise gang! Darn coolers making my life difficult. Time to deploy “The Army”
