PSA: Terraformer (item 514) still works, if you have dirt where it shouldn't be (as of 2/8/17)

    It works everywhere. Mutilated the gun island to build a base (the construction is so weird the only other option would've been flying, which isn't possible in SN) and then resetted the terrain.

    There was a jetpack or something mentioned on Trello, not sure what use it'd be seeing there's not much land to be on anyway. That being said, have you tried using the Exosuit's grappling arm and jetpack to climb up where you need to get to?

    I'll be honest. I've used a PRAWN suit to climb to the very top of the Precursor island and build sizeable base up there. It's not really practical considering everything is underwater, but it was a nice change of perspective for a base. As far as a pathway down, that is difficult, but I think doable when the telepads are released.

    Crash fish and collision still deform terrain. The code isn't out yet. So even without a terraformer, you could use a propulsion cannon to shot holes where you want them.

    And the repulsion cannon does a faily good job as well - but I still used the terraformer to make my giant overkill two second - safe shallows - to - precursor thermal plant ladder transporter.
