In this tutorial video, I explain pretty much all the basics there is to know about the building system in 7 Days To Die. We deal with frame shapes, the shape menu, upgrades (upgrade paths and shortcuts), stability / statics, storage boxes, and much more. The video was created for Alpha 20, but still applies fully to Alpha 21, as nothing has changed in the building system. 0:00 Intro 0:23 Basics - frame shapes & shape menu 1:16 Basics - rotation & copy tools 2:00 Basics - upgrades & building materials 3:20 Shape helper - finished blocks 3:59 Statics - stability system explained 5:40 Minimum size - space required by objects 6:15 Terrain blocks - placing earth, gravel & asphalt 6:40 Hover tower?
