how to move to a new base?

[CaptRiker 0]

started few days ago, made a simple base but it's in a bad place.. couldn't only place 3 foundations in a L shape.. want to move to a more open clearing but when I tried to place a 2nd claim claims said I could have only one.... how do I setup a new base and move all my chests / items to new ones?  if I destroy my current land claim does everything hit the ground and decay?  ie.. only 15 mins to setup new foundations /chests and to move stuff?  would be nice if you could be allowed a 2nd land claim placement ( to setup and move to a new base) then have the old claim decay within 24 hrs or less?

Hi there!

To remove your current land claim, you will need to remove all objects in the area using a hammer.  After they have been removed, you can then remove your land claim and place a new one down.

tia for the reply.. yea.. nail in the coffin for me.. not being able to easily move bases is a deal breaker. very poor mechanics and in the mission area I already had a land claim down base built.. cannot place another to finish  mission chain    not willing to lose all my items in chests cause of this :P.. should allow a 2nd land claim to be placed and have a countdown (6hrs?) on the original land claim.... would allow to setup another base and move gear/items then can manually remove original base

You can complete the mission by placing a land claim on another server.  The mission rewards can be claimed from any server so you don't have to claim them on the server you complete the mission on.

The reason for the restriction to 1 claim per person per server (previously players could have 3) is because with limited space on the map, we want to ensure that everyone is able to find a place to build.  We have some future plans for possibly allowing for a temp build area for situations like this, however we have not started coding the feature for it.
