Yes, definitely. With a new computer and SSD, load times, everywhere, were more than halved for me.

Okay; Backups. I start a craft, then when I make a major design change, I save, then add a number to the end of the name, and make the change. Holding alt while attaching something forces it to attach at a node, rather than on the surface. While rotating a part with the gizmo, move the mouse far away from the center of the gizmo for more precise rotation. (thanks to @Majorjim for this one) Every craft is a tree, branching off from the root part. Keep this in mind while building. You can both be tricked by this (trying to attach a part to two places) and you can abuse it (offset something that needs to be stable, but has to be at the outer limits of the craft away from the root, then build backwards from it towards the root.

I disagree too. Here's a screenshot taken with a pedestal I made. It really lets the statute shine.- 5 replies

I like what you did with the rear suspension. -
