Just as the title says, the base reconstruction tools only real downside is the inability to actually see where you are placing your base.

Sure, you can try to use a high vantage point close to where you want to build, but even then that isn't a good workaround.

You could ask a friend to waste their precious time to come let you surf on their thopter to assist in placing it. But that still has limitations.

A detachable controllable camera that can zoom quite a bit out would be a huge help. It could allow you to toggle from the normal PoV we currently have or use the detached camera.
