I was wondering if there is a way to build floors etc on the empty Z tiles such as to be able to create bridges around apartments, build a base on a silo etc?
Good question.
Have you tried the “build” menu? The one called with *
I think you can build more the more skill you have. I m sure I see “bridge” in some menu.
Bridges require water to be below them it seems.
I think there is no buildable floor that can be put at empty tiles
Try building a roof one level lower, maybe?
P.S. Just checked: building a roof works for creating a floor one Z level higher.
Alternatively, vehicle construction that starts on a roof can extend onto empty Z tiles. This works best for short temporary bridges. When exploring in urban environments, I usually carry a folded vehicle that consists of 5 foldable-light frames in a row, and unfold it to bridge gaps. Unless you install aisles, it will ask you to confirm each step you take, and it’s no good for hauling things over.
