Base Defense Downer

So I bought the new Base Defense DLC released today, added a few of the new bits to my main base and called in the hardest difficulty defense mission.

It failed and half the base was destroyed. The base was a mess so I decided to clear it and start over, but the game won’t because I need points to claim it again.

The materials were added to my inventory putting my weight at 69.205 (so I can’t run) and my recycle station capacity is at max of 500.

The following building resources are in my inventory:

208 wood
104 textiles
13 titanium
171 steel
3 aluminum
7 adhesive
9 electrolyte
2 lead

The following resources are in the recycle station storage:

2105 adhesive
1481 textile
1064 steel
170 titanium
3528 explosive
714 lead
1102 copper
59 electrolyte
4 uranium
216 rubber
437 thread
772 accelerant
613 wood
4 cement
193 plastic
23 aluminum
15 tungsten

So now I can’t rebuild, I can’t move, what should I do?

Can you fix this and prevent this kind of scenario from occurring?

I really enjoy this game, but can’t play it now.

Considering machines do a lot more of damage to our Base structures, changing the HP values of the Structures back to the Pre Landfall Update values, would help a lot :slight_smile:

You need a mule to store it on. Then you can tap into specific resources you need along the way. Providing you have full Recycling capacity - you can stack 500 -550 of each resource then transition between your stored materials on the mule as you craft / build.

Drop ~50-70% of that stuff.

Jayzus, how on earth do you have that much copper, I always end up using it all making Rocket ammo

I don’t use rockets and if I need more ammo I will try to find a place where the landfall robots are fighting the regular robots and then I sneak to the dead robots corpses and take any ammo off the corpse and I currently have about 180 rockets for the standard rocket launcher and 60 rockets for the dlc RPG.

I ended up dumping a bunch of extra experimentals and 4+ star weapons and add ons stored on my alt characters then dumped a bunch of resources I never use. So I was able to build on one of the new control points and run a mission.
