The new empty Baseplate. It stinks. A lot. Why does ROBLOX keeps getting worse?

Ew, I see. They terrain-ized it. Why is Roblox so proud of this terrain feature? I personally think it's on the verge of useless. Why is Roblox trying to stoop to Mine Craft's level, when Roblox is so much better?

What new baseplate? o.O Did this update happen right now? Or you are talking about the Black, poopy one that everyone has when they reset they're place?

Now the empty baseplate is a slab of terrain.

Can you adjust the terrain size to minimums and then reset the terrain with the terrain tool? That way you would have less voxels (terrain bricks) to delete. Haven't even seen the 'new baseplate' but I have used the terrain tools.

#Goldblocker,

ROBLOX doesn't have a caring problem. They're just trying to find updates that make us happier. The happier we ROBLOXians are = the more we like the site. The more we like the site = the more memberships get paid for annually. The more memberships get paid for annually = Millions of Real $ for the ROBLOX community.

The new empty base can be deleted, just open terrain generator and select reset.
Or you could just click the new page option in studio, Looks like a sheet of paper.
Either way you would still need to insert a part and configure it to a base. Make sure the part is anchored and locked and named base. The standard base used to be 512,.4,512, and was plate formfactor. Set these in properties .

There's a object called "Base". Right-click "Base" on your workspace and click Delete/Cut. I don't think the new baseplate is bad then. XD

@drew
Check out my use of terrain. It may or may not change your mind. All I know is that it is a good feature.
When you use the terrain like I have it allows you a lot more area with less parts. To make that much terrain out of parts would surely be a laggfest
The voxels that are used in terrain are a great feature, because your machine doesn't need to render the hidden sides of the voxels.
One part renders 6 sides, one voxel renders 6 sides. 2parts render 12 sides, 2 voxels render 6 sides.

The new empty base plate is seriously getting on my nerves. I don't usually use the original base plates in my building and now I have to go through a lot of trouble just to get rid of it.

It's terrain, not a regular brick. So you can't delete it like that.

You can't delete that object called Terrain, I'm talking about deleting a object called Base.

I found out hoe to delete it. Use the little Remover tool at the top bar (garbage can) and click all around the Terrain. It's time- consuming, but it's worth it. Then you just add a part in, and put it where you want.

@Above, just select the Terrain Generator, and select reset; saves 1 hour of your life.

You guys could do something even simplier...
Why don't you just insert a brick in Edit mode and re-size it to the size of the original baseplate and insert a spawn?
Then just move the brick and spawn up thus removes the issue of having to see the terrian.
But if you really want to delete it just use the "reset" feature in the terrain generator, or use the "delete" tool in the terrain toolbar. (Looks like a trashcan if I'm not mistaken)

Wow you people really need to read all of the thread... The suggestion of resetting terrain was made a few times.
