Foundation

[sadarious]

There should be a building mod for foundations to make them built like conveyor belts which they can bend.

[Lord Rak]

you can buy 1/2 (half) foundations for coupons.

They need to make some curves in the game. Curved walls and cuved flat foundations would be nice.
until then we have mods and creature use of rotated and clipping foundations to create curves.

or at least give us something to create a temporary snap line between 2 points with the options of strait or curved. that way we can mark 2 structures we want to connect and get a nice curve or strait although slightly angled path

They can make the conveyor belt logic add a build mode for foundations that you put a starting point then give the any curve you want then end it.

I've never seen a foundation irl that curves on the z axis ;) With a bit of skulduggery you can achieve x/y axis curves.

They tried to implement spline based roads, but it was canned due to being too buggy. There was a (buggy) mod, but I don't think it was updated for u8, perhaps it will be in the future.. Certainly something that should be implemented in the base game though. Roads over distance using foundations are really not worth the hassle, as they look and drive terribly if trying to hug the terrain and make tight incline/decline turns.

Heard the same thing a few times too.

It really wouldn't be a problem if they just offered more things. I was building something earlier and it occurred to me that there isn't a vertically orientated quarter-cylinder. There's the inverse of it, the quarter-pipe, that you can put on an upper surface to curve it, and there's a horizontal version, but not a vertical one.
Same thing with roads. I don't understand why they've given us several things that seem intended for roads, yet don't offer any proper foundations for one. A few curved road segments (30°, 45° and 90°) in a few different sizes/widths and we'd be sorted.

There kinda is a mod like that. The SMART! mod.
