A word of warning. This mod will replace the default pillars, ceilings, and foundations with it's own. This has two effects. First, you will no longer be able to switch newly crafted foundations to "block" mode. Second, the pillars use half as many... but you can't place them in half-high gaps. This makes some building projects completely impossible. Third, if you remove this mod, anything built with pillars, ceilings, or foundations since the mod was installed will be destroyed.

Frankly, I advise against using the mod as the issues it "fixes" are mostly cosmetic and the issues it creates are issues with the way things function (or no longer function, as it were).

@Proxy_J ALL MOD ID'S ARE IN THE URL OF THE MOD. "?id=123456789" THE MOD ID WOULD BE 123456789

Would be great if you stated the mod number

I made sure to learn the new engrams, but the recipes for the metal foundation/ceiling/pillar don't show up in my Smithy. Do I need to craft a new Smithy too?

does this work with other mods that add snap points? and does it still work today?

Are you still doing Ark mods? I have a question: does your mod also adds new snap point to ceilings and foundations? In particular, I am in need to mount a pillar not to the center or to one of the four corners of a ceiling or foundation, but to the middle of any of its four edges.

Otherwise, I suggest the idea of a mod that adds HALF and QUARTER ceilings and foundations.

doors problem

Does this cover the prevention of ladder placements in walls? I can never place a ladder on the side of a wall, it's always inside it?

Damnit, this mod is the BEST, however when removing the mod, it removes all the placed items also.

"Builders Improvements" howerver, does not...such a shame.

got a question to ask that puzzle piece on your mod is yellow and not green what does that mean ?

Does this help the Fence frames as well?

NO COOL

please add the adobe structures from the new dlc ark scorched earth...

does this mod still work?

For anyone looking for Mod ID

hey woden you still keeping this mod up to date or have you ditched it

what is the mod id?

well just wanted to let the maker aware that some times this males it where a player cant place down a foundaion etc matters the area etc n the reason i say this is due to me testing my idea which was remove this n restart the server and i was right so yea only bug i seen so far

Was going to try this mod but the lack of response by the modder has put me off, no response at all since feb 20 .... not good

pillars from this mod do not seem to be working correctly. normally you can continue pillars all the way into the ground for foundation support, but these stop short. in some case, this does not prevent the pillars from providing foundation support fortunately. they do sometimes fail to provide support though. i was also unable to place pillars on top of a ceiling or place a ceiling in between two pillars as you should be able to. i confirmed that this was a problem with the pillars from this mod by using pillars from the aku shima mod which functioned perfectly even when used with your pillars. i was able to snap an aku shima pillar to yours to continue the stack to the ground when i couldn't with only yours, and i was able to place ceilings in those stacks that contained aku shima pillars. hopefully this can be fixed, otherwise i like what you've done here.

is this, with the existing wood, stone etc engrams or are these new ones that you have to learn and place down

oh can you fix elevator track? or did you do that already?

Removing it shouldn't require a map restart, but it WILL remove any of the affected structures that were built after the mod was added. That's one of the limitations of ARK's modding system at the moment.

If I take this mod off of my server, will I need to restart the map? Or will it be fine to keep on playing with?

You know the foundations are especially made for being lower than ceilings, cause you can put ceilings additionally on the foundations!
Thats really necessary if you try to build a larger base and have a lot of rough terrain, especially at the edge of your base, where you want to build walls down to the ground but you can't cause it's too less space left. There you can put foundations instead under your ceilings, so you have no place left where dinosaur or player can get into or under you base structures.

Well for those who just don't care about dinosaur or players able to slip under the structures the mod is sure nice. Just wanted to mention that (cause I'm almost building large bases and the mod is a NoGo for such kind of projects ^^)

can I still use the old master id numbers to summon updated items or do I need to use a different set of code?

Im using this mod on my server that uses different cost for engrams, this overwrite all the changes i did. How i can edit the engram cost "inside" your mod? sorry for bad english

For some reason, when I add this mod to my mod list, I can no longer switch tools outside of the inventory. (I have to open the inventory to switch tools and items on the hotbar)

Works great, seems to have a minor issue with the "Simple Fence" mod, the fence doesn't snap corectly (usually slopes to one side). Vanilla fences still work though, as well as the other fence mods. Keep up the great work :)

@mjhusn:
Green = new content only (or, at least, that's what it's SUPPOSED to mean)
Yellow = remapped content
Red = total conversion or otherwise needs to be a primary mod

what does the yellow puzzle piece icon mean?

Goda-565419904, it's in the URL of the mod, on every mod's page.

id of this mod please?

It doesnt work for me

i dont see the diffrence

This is not a no-collision mod. Once I have things a bit more finalized, I'll make a no-collision version that adds additional no-cost engrams.

is this considered no collision or will i need a separate mod?

I automatically 'unlearned' thatch, wood and stone foundation engrams along with a few others when I ran this. Also still have pillar nipples..... :(

No clip compability please.

Make the mod problems when man adds him to a running server ( with sometimes already built many structures )

I've added some images, as well as done a few more tweaks. Tomorrow I'll try to get the thatch and metal foundations adjusted slightly better, and see if I can get the thatch roofs to match more closely with everything else.

Nice clean building.
