'''A "sandbox" is a parcel of land which has been put aside in for practicing building.''' Much like real sandboxes and the concept of [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sandbox_games sandbox games], creativity and chaos tend to emerge. Several sandboxes exist for specific purposes — such as the Weapons Testing Sandbox — but the majority of sandboxes are simply for regular building.

Signs within each sandbox area make it clear what's allowed. Sandboxes usually have autoreturn enabled to clean themselves several times a day, so before building, look for info so you aren't caught by surprise. Since sandboxes are experimental, they may also be unstable — be sure to regularly take Inventory backups of anything that's important.
