Description
Overview

This mod merges Barely Restricted Spots and Barely Visible Spots into one, now tagged for 1.4.

This allows you to place spots upon buildings. You could, for example, place a crafting spot upon a table, a party spot along a bar counter, or a meditation spot upon a chair.

In the provided screenshot, there is both a crafting spot and a party spot on the table in the same space.

It also allows you to make spots invisible, or subtle.

Spots
  • Marriage spot
  • Party spot
  • Crafting spot
  • Butcher spot
  • Caravan packing spot
  • Animal sleeping spot
  • Royalty DLC's meditation spot
  • Ideology DLC's ritual spot
  • Biotech DLC's baby sleeping spot

Mod support
  • Allies Spot
  • Trade Ships Drop Spot
  • Trading Control
  • [KV] Trading Spot
  • Empire (its tax spot)
  • Taki's Random Stuff (continued)
  • Primitive Workbenches
  • Musical Instruments Continued
  • Ceramics
  • ZARS Tribalism
  • Research Spot
  • VE - Outposts Expanded
  • Rimsential Spaceports
  • DBH Piss Point

Note that, like other mods that allow placing things upon buildings, it requires a small amount of self-policing. You could, for example, place a crafting spot on top of a wall... and who would want to do that?!

This is a lightweight xml-only patch and can be freely added or removed from games.

FAQ
  • Q. How do I make the "change graphic" button not random?
    A. Go to the mod options -> Vanilla Expanded Framework, there's a checkbox in there to make this function sequential instead of random.

I updated it to 1.5 and added support for 'Smarter Visitors' and 'Run and Hide' spots as well: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3466316759

Medieval Overhaul adds a research spot that is currently unsupported, including a patch for that would be great :)

@Ralika works just fine here on 1.5

@Alison works fine here, all spots, including caravan hitching spot hidden successfully!

Bug: Not working for Caravan hitching spot. (1.5)

Bug: Changing graphic for multiple selected spots will only work for those in the same map section. Also the mod setting seems to be missing.

Since this mod has been reported working in 1.5 I added it to the No Version Warning-mod

@FrozenSnowFox Thank you so much! I really appreciate it. :MysteriaGodOfDeathHappy:

This mod is entirely xml and loading it in 1.5 causes so errors. As far as I can tell its working without issue.
