Ok i kind of put myself in a bad situation i had a chatacter that ive played almost all my game time with and built a really nice base in my own server then i decied to start a new character i had a tribe set up with the first and had some friends playing with me well when i made my new character i didnt know you had to save your current one at a obelisk first so now that my first character is either erased or inacessable the base i made with him for my new lv 1 character is essentially useless i spent a entire weekend on the base putting pretty much everything in the game into it via admincheats but my new character even though is now the owner and member of the same tribe as my first is not allowed to destroy or alter this base in any way i think mostly because the game is seeing it as a enemy base since my original character is deleted and no longer in the tribe but i have other bases that he created and im still able to acess them just as i had before but to get to my problem at hand i am trying to destroy this monsterous metal base i built so i can rebuild it with my new character but the admin cheat destroytarget and damagetarget do not work i am stuck with using c4 to blow up this base and it is going to take forever really bummed out that this happened so any advice or suggestions would be helpful

My advice? Edit the text and use punctuation please. You'll have a much better chance of someone reading your post and helping you.

It isn't hard to read something without punctuation, your comment is both pointless and un-helpful.

And your post is helpfull? I don't see you trying to help him either.

It's a proven fact that more people end up helping you if you make it easier for them to read your issue.

Rayden is right... when I was reading this, it is almost impossible to understand. The whole post is one sentence that is longer than any string of thoughts I can keep track of. If you're gonna flame someone for asking for clarification, you should just keep it to yourself. He's trying to be helpful, while you complain about him..?

Hard to read, as Rayden mentioned.

@Rayden
BUT, it's still simple enough to understand what's going on and pointless to just complain about his writing.

@nellom
if you experience such an issue, you don't need to essentially take down the entire base. For sure you made a new character and further, it's no longer your belonging. The few things you can do are either destroying the base, leaving it alone and start a new one.

Or alternatively you could try to blast away the door and set your own one, but I can't tell yet if it's possible to hijack an enemys house this way.

Is your new character the same name as the old one. I have found the ability to access dinos / houses with other chars I make so long as the name is the same.
