No foundation support
So,i've been playing ARK for like four months and i know some things about the game already.But there is one thing that i've searched the internet for so long and didn't find any answer for it.
So i know lots of people already asked about it (or maybe i am the one doing it wrong) but with the S+ (structure plus) mod after the no foundation support was removed from the mod i can't find how to make my structures "float" like in minecraft.
In my case i am trying to build a house out of S+ stone ceilings without using foundations,pillars etc.But after puting 3 or 4 ceilings beside each one for the fifth one it says requires foundational support. I've been trying to mess with the .ini files but nothing is working.
So my question is:can someone help me out by posting the right video or just telling me in detail how to make it cuz i am already irritated by this.Thanks anyways!!

why don't you ask in the S+ discussion?

right at the bottom of your gameusersettings file under the s+ heading, type NoFoundationsRequired=true....if you dont have the heading there, put it in as well....

[StructuresPlus]
NoFoundationsRequired=true

you still need to put one foundation,pillar etc to start off with but this can then just be removed

It wasnt removed you just have to put what badlad said in. Only thing recently removed of recent memory was the noclip option and this is because its a vanilla core game setting now.

so in Shootergame/saved/config/WindowsNoEditor - edit the gameusersettings.ini (with Ark Closed) Add it to the bottom of the file - save. You have done this?
