Dismantling exists, refunds do not. Hold V with a hammer on your own structure and a circle fills; the piece disappears in stages. Nothing returns to the console, and the hammer loses durability (the Large hammer has 3,000).
| Question | Answer | Status |
|---|---|---|
| Supplies back? | none documented | ‡ verify |
| Which hammer? | Large only (allthings.how, post-launch) or any (older guide) | ‡ verify |
| Partial? | yes, the piece is removed in steps | confirmed |
| Enemy structures? | no; destroy them with explosives or vehicles | confirmed |
| Cancel a placement? | not documented (Esc is the likely key) | ‡ verify |
Three habits that make dismantling unnecessary:
- Place with the hologram, not the hammer. White or green means valid, red means no. Rotate with R and toggle snapping with B before you click; the menu price is deducted the moment you place.
- Threat side first, ring second, everything else last. A wall you regret was almost always placed before the plan existed. Every FOBplans blueprint is a build order for this reason.
- Unfinished blueprints are cheap to fix. A placed piece at 0% has cost about three quarters of its menu price; if it is wrong, dismantle it before anyone hammers it.
The exact refund behaviour and the hammer tier for V are on our in-game verification list; this page updates with the result.
