Tek Forcefield Minimum Distance
Are there any other fellow custom / private server admins out there that have figured out a variable, or ini file tweak or -something- (NOT A MOD, NO MODS) that will reduce (or eliminate entirely) the minimum distance we can place shield generators?

This whole "Can't Place Tek ForceField: Can't place too close to other structure of similar type." is really freaking annoying.

I run private servers specifically so we can remove and eliminate the "annoyances" imposed on us by the ark devs and do what ever we want.

Any info on removing this restriction without mods would be appreciated.

If you're on a pve server you don't particularly need a shield generator (walls work fine). If you're on a pvp server it will quickly become "who can stack more generators on top of each other" and then pvp becomes pointless (who will waste resources destroying 200 shield generators with 100k hp each?).

Which do you feel would be more annoying?
*sigh* this is a problem with the forums here on steam.. I didn't ask for a discussion on "Why" I want this. I just wanted to know if anyone has figured out how to disable this, yes or no. And if yes, how. That's all. Very simple.

Not possible without mod
