shortcut key to see structural integrity
There used to be a key you could press to view structural integrity and it would show you your structure with red and green tint to see where the weak spots were. I can't seem to figure it out in A17 any help?

I don't see an admin menu when I hit Esc

You have to enable debug mode to have the admin menu.

Ok so nothing seems to be working for me. I checked options to see what the key for Debug was (F3) that does nothing for me even if I press it after opening the Esc menu. I've tried Alt-F3, Ctrl-F3 and neither of them work. I tried F3 after opening the console screen F1 and still nothing.

All I really want to know is whether or not my base is going to fall apart and it seems counter-intuitive to get the structural integrity display to show up.

What am I doing wrong?

you could get a hammer or a nailgun equip it and then poitn at it when its damage you will see how much hp the object has if its fulllive just hit it idk tough if that helps you (i think the stoneaxe could work too but im not sure so xD)

Thanks Maoam_S.E.E., but I was talking about the ability of the blocks to support my base rather than how many hit points they have. I have a general idea of what the blocks can support, but I want to make sure I have plenty of support under my walkways so that zombies destroying one support column won't bring down the whole base.

ah lul ok i know what u mean saw something in another game where an overlay is put over the block from green to red and the more red it is the less it can support okey i have no idea but good luck for your search maybe they gonna add this if it isnt in yet

There is no shortcut for it. You enable the display in the admin menu. It takes a couple minutes to calculate then will appear.

I finally found the answer on the wiki...
F1 to open up the console
dm [enter] to enable debug mode
Esc to bring up the menu and there it was on the right.

I just needed to know how to get there, I don't use the debug stuff and the options-controls said F3 to debug, but you have to enter in the dm command in the console and that's the part I didn't know. Since I didn't know that, I didn't know how to ask the right question I guess.
