Using the Easy Build Hall only works with the tutorial Laborer (module) ship. It does not work with ''any other'' ship! It will work with any new custom designs built from modules from scratch by you, but no existing ship can use the Easy Build Hall and survive. This is the #1 reason for broken ships at the moment.

Important notes

Last updated: 31 July 2021

Don't use Easy Build Hall with normal ships!

Using the Easy Build Hall only works with the tutorial Laborer (module) ship. It does not work with any other ship! It will work with new custom designs built from modules from scratch by you, but no existing ship can use the Easy Build Hall and survive. This is the #1 reason for broken ships at the moment.

You can get a new tutorial Laborer by completing the Repair Job again!

If your Laborer ship has broken down for any reason, you can get another one by simply completing the Repair Job again. You should be able to do this without touching any of the settings. However you can also see if restarting the Tutorial helps, in the ESC menu -> Settings -> Tutorial.
