Building Tools

The building tools in Build World are primarily based off of the old stamper tools made by ROBLOX. There are currently seven tools that are obtainable without group moderator permissions. Two, of which, are free.

"Build" Tool
The Build tool is represented by an isometric cube with a circle around it in a light green color. Everything about the build tool is based off of the stamper tool, from the UI to the parts. By default, it is placed in the first slot of your toolbar and is equippable by pressing the 1 key or clicking the icon.

When used, the Build tool can use parts selected via the menu, copy items, or use previous items in a UI above the toolbar.



"Delete" Tool
The Delete tool is represented by a tilted hammer with a circle around it in a red color. By default, it is in the second slot of the toolbar, equippable by pressing the 2 key or clicking the icon.

The Delete tool is the tool used for removing objects. An object can be deleted by hovering the cursor over a recognized part, resulting in a light red outline of the object appearing. From there, it's just the click of a button, and Poof!



"Resize" Tool
The Resize tool is represented by an angled ray, with arrowheads on both sides with, of course, a circle around it. It is represented in a light-yellow color.

The Resize Tool can be used on singular parts to resize them four studs, or one block. This is useful for speeding up the process of deleting terrain, as it primarily consists of blocks which are separated when a block is deleted with the Delete tool.



"Configure" Tool
The Configure tool is represented by a 7-tooth gear grinding against a 11-tooth gear with a circle around it in a light blue color. It is, by default, in the fourth slot of the toolbar, equippable via the 4 key or clicking the icon.

The Configure tool is used on objects that have properties that can be changed, such as number values, asset IDs, text, etc. Such objects can include picture frames, timed gates, friend doors, and more.



"Wiring" Tool
The Wiring tool is represented by a tower with a filled circle on the tip of it, with indicators of waves emitting from it on both the left and right sides. As with the other tools, it has a circle around it and is represented by a purple color.

The Wiring tool is important in the field of logic, being used to connect triggers such as levers or buttons to objects that require the input from those triggers, like doors, speakers, gates, and more.

Paid Tools
There are currently two tools that are in the shop and require BT to get. Though these tools aren't as essential as the free tools, they can play roles in detailed projects.

"Color Tool"
The Color tool is represented by a bucket full of paint, with two drips coming down the canister. It has a handle lifted in an upwards position and had a circle around it. The tool is represented in a burnt orange color. It is equippable by clicking the icon or pressing the key in whatever slot in the toolbar it's in.

"Anchor" Tool
The Anchor tool is represented by an anchor like those that would be used on ships with a circle around it. It has a lighter cyan color. It is equippable by clicking the icon or pressing the key in whatever slot in the toolbar it's in.
