Stackable Foundations!

Are you frustrated with foundations? Having trouble finding a perfectly flat place to build? This mod's for you!

Features:
  • Stackable (on top or bottom)
  • Foundations can be side-snapped 1/2 height of a wall up or down
  • Completely compatible (and stackable!) with standard foundations
  • No collision!
  • Can be picked up! (can disable pickup in the server settings)
  • Zero engram cost, requires standard foundation engram ("Stackable Stone Foundation" requires "Stone Foundation")
  • Craftable in inventory, same material cost as standard foundation


New Version!
Features:
  • Stackable Tek Foundation added!
  • Crafting station added! Details below.
  • To help prevent accidental placements, foundation will no longer replace each other if they're the same type, and both at full health.
  • All foundations now respect the building prevention zones.
  • All foundations now do a manual ground-check, which allow them to be buried deeply into the ground (and prevent attached foundations from breaking when removed).
  • Foundations will now show a "Ground Status" when looking at the structure. If a foundation is stacked, the status will read "No Ground Contact", to warn you that it is being supported by other foundations. (Can be disabled)
  • You can now set a custom pickup time for all structures, if you choose. The default is 1 second. (See Below)
  • All foundations have had their max placement heights adjusted.
  • There are now Two Engrams for Stackable Adobe Foundation:
    • One engram allows you to buy Stackable Adobe Foundation for free if you already have Adobe Foundation (for playing on Scorched Earth)
    • The other engram allows you to buy Stackable Adobe Foundation for 6 Engram points, even if you don't have the Adobe Foundation engram (for players outside of Scorched Earth, by request)
    • If you don't want both engrams, you can hide one of them in the INI settings with an EngramOverride command.


Crafting Bench (Note Book)
  • This small notebook stand can be placed on the floor as a podium, or can transform into a small book stand if placed on a table.
  • Can craft all foundations, if you've unlocked the engram.
  • Can upgrade or downgrade foundations from stackable to/from vanilla (regardless of whether or not you know the engram).
  • Can craft portable blueprints for each stackable foundation (if you've unlocked the engram), so you can take them to your favorite crafting station, or give them to tribemates, etc.
  • All foundations have had their max placement heights increased to allow building anywhere.

@Kryzzk: You should be able to do that with engram overrides in the INI settings, yep

Is it possible to remove the tek foundation requirement to unlock the stackable tek foundation?
RedDwarf  [author] Feb 14, 2023 @ 9:57pm 
Hey @PestoPosta: That's definitely still on my list -- I've got a lot of projects/updates in the pipes, though, so it might be a while
Pesto Posta Feb 12, 2023 @ 7:19pm 
So... about those triangles?
Any plans to add them... as they are my preferred foundation.

Would just like to say this is my Favourite mod

Thanks =) Which new foundations did you want? Add Triangles?
The_Penance Dec 24, 2022 @ 11:09pm 
I've been subbed to this mod for years and its nice if the only addition i want is some new foundations without overhauling everything. thank you so much for how well designed this is.

@limabohne: Not yet — it was made back before triangle foundations were made. I’m planning to add them someday
limabohne Dec 3, 2022 @ 1:15pm 
does it include the rectangle ones? and are we able to change their appearance?
RedDwarf  [author] Dec 1, 2022 @ 8:41pm 
@vijer: Hey, yeah, I can do that. You can still pickup the foundation manually through the multiuse wheel (even after the countdown timer), but tools like the S+ Pickup gun won't work on it until I push an update. I'll put this on the to-do list for the next update. Thanks!
