Okay, the frame could be a non-physical guide so you can build directly over it. Building mechs only works in the 10m+ range, so for light mechs and heavy combat armor, we'll need models.

no it would be an actual phisical frame
on wich you could build

like a stickman and on the stickman you can place blocks so
it would look like your mech is moving by itself

Why don't we have a non-physical frame that only appears in the mechlab build area? It's basically the same, but just makes a little more sense to me.

if people could just build mechs out of blocks and use it
that might be included
but the frame system what we are talking about makes the mech move
because separate blocks cant so a dissapearing frame wouldnt make sense because otherwise you would have organized blocks in the form of a mech that doesnt move

The frame would stay, the builder would just be able to place a block directly in the frame. The mech would be built in something like a VR hologram (similar to a ship design area), the player would build on a virtual frame. When the designer is finished, the machine builds the actual mech, no frame needed. Any space along the line of the frame that the designer didn't build in might be filled by a random block or physical frame piece.

do you nominate that idea ?

Sure, though it's basically the same as the other one with added VR build area. I NOMINATE THE IDEA THAT I HAD A WHILE AGO TO THE VOTEY THING.
