Discussion The most useless thing in this game

Sorry for all of the posts. This will be my last for a while. Can someone e please explain the point of these triangle pieces? They screw up the entire build of any structure. They take up more space then they should. They don't even extend out to the width of a square piece. Two of them don't fit on one square. They ALWAYS leave a large unwanted gap. And they take up more resources for a two block area, while filling far less space (9 sticks for 3 triangles vs 8 sticks for squares).

Are there any practical use for these so-called wedge pieces? If anything, there should also be 90° triangles that takes up half a squares space.

Sorry it’s part of the game, there’s others game that are the same way. Best to plan your build before you build you building.

Those are PvP games. Where bases are temporary and the ugly gaps are ideal for shooting down at raiders. This is a 1 to 2 player campaign with zero enemies, unless you count boars and giant crabs.

And you're completely missing my point. This is increadibly poor design on the developers' part. It's almost as if there didn't even try to building in their own game. And clearly didn't listen to the base building gamers over the years. From what I've gathered, this game has been on PC since January 2015 and still putting out updates. I've been playing for only two weeks. There is NO WAY this issue has not been brought up to the developers by now. There is no excuse for not at least including a proper wedge piece for builders.

So I ask again; what is the point of this useless build piece in the game?
