Paste Builder

The Paste Builder system automatically terraforms surfaces and constructs walls and rooms in designated areas using any construction paste based block. The system works using two kinds of machines.

Used to configure and mark surfaces or structures for Paste Builders to build on. Four types of build modes are available named Surface, Terraform, Wall, and Room.

Surface mode is used to cover an X/Z area up to a set depth.

Terraform mode is used to clear an X/Z area up to a set height and cover it to a set depth.

Wall mode is used to build a single vertical wall of a set height.

Room mode is used to build a complete room with a floor, walls, and ceiling.

Configuration is done by highlighting the marker with the build gun and pressing the interact key. A popup will appear with the options for mode and size. Each mode will show a visual box or outline on the area to be built. To allow building to start the Active box must be selected.

Performs construction tasks in areas marked by site markers. It must be placed adjacent to a Mass Storage cluster or hopper from which it can extract or store paste. Paste Builders are automatically assign to site markers on round robin basis. The Paste Builder requires power and uses 16 units of power for each dig, build, or paste transfer operation.
