As a testament to how good this forum is, I am just now getting to register as I have been able to find answers to all of my questions "lurking" around the board or searching via google. There is one thing I have been unable to find, however and that is if and how I can increase the build radius around my character. I find the radius frustratingly small. If this question has already been asked and responded to, I am sorry for the repost, I obviously failed to use the correct search terms.
Thanks in advance!

Re: Increasing the Build Area Around Your Character
Hi and welcome to the forums! To my knowledge, there is not a way to do that normally. There is no research in the labs that does it or items. I'm sure someone somewhere has made a mod to do that or something similar. Sorry I couldn't be more helpful :/
Re: Increasing the Build Area Around Your Character
Should I move this topic to mod requests?
Cool suggestion: Eatable MOUSE-pointers.

I can't believe that this does not annoy anyone other than myself...

Re: Increasing the Build Area Around Your Character
This should actually be moved to ideas and suggestions as the character object needs a selection_distance, it is not something that could easily be modded in.
It bothers be as well Corbus but only because I want to make it a distance of zero for one of my mods.

Re: Increasing the Build Area Around Your Character
I'd like to see this as a research (Like Tool Belt), and perhaps also as a suit module. +4 squares for the tech, then +2 per module maybe? Stack a ton of them and place things everywhere!
Until then, you can shift-click things and your construction bots will try to help if you have them supplied. I drop belts down like this lategame often, and you can lay ghost plans from maximum zoom out.
