Description
Builder's Improvements
ModID=854186603
This mod does NOT implement new structures.
The mod adds snap points and changes some restrictions of vanilla structures.
Just subscribe the mod, install it and it will work out of the box.

0.9A
feeding trough: snap points
trophy base: snap points
catwalks snap on ramps to build stairs
crop plots and fence foundations are easier to place unsnapped because of a smaller snap range, but they still snap
minor bugfixes

GameUserSettings.ini:

Hello friends!
As you recognized, i did not update the mod for a long time.
Real life has completely consumed me, so I have no time for ARK and modding.
i know, this is not what you want to hear, but i hope this will change in the future.
i am working on it.
Sorry for that and thx for your support!

Does this mod interfere with you being able to lower a foundation for a raft base?

been running a server with this mod for months,if you're someone who likes to not use modded structures like s+ foundations and whatnot for your bases but still want structure building QoL, this mod is one of the best. the ceilings not needing support every 2 foundations makes it insanely fun to build things like ceiling/cliff bases.

this mod just doesn't work anymore, we have a server and we added the entire [BuildersImprovements] section and the corresponding ini configurations to the server's GameUserSettings.ini, and no luck.
