is S+ compatibility ever gonna be added?

Any word on the issues?

there's a normal config you can use for additional raft structure distance, might wanna use that, set to 5

So I'm using the mobile base raft but I can't build out any father than like 3 blocks forward and 1 backward? I'm having to use ceiling tiles and they don't go farther than that

Is there any chance you can modify the health, leed's still destroy these with 2 hits, even with structure resistance, maybe a metal boat option/config even?

battleship can only be built 5*7, same as speed hunter's size, all smaller than orig raft. S+ enabled, but only vanilla structures placed on battleship raft, sigh.

Just saw that this mod doesn't work with S+ structures and we have to use vanilla structures. I was just about to mention this. really unfortunate though.

I will check on the weekend myself how far I can build...

im having issues building as big as the mod states possible. i was able to build further away on the battleship than i was the mobile base. mb only gets me roughly 9x9, bs got me like 13 or so i think. but def not 20x20. using thatch roof and stone foundations like instructed.

This mod still works as intended, please use vanilla structures if you cannot get it to work, S+ has other snap points.
This mod does not need any update ATM.
But an update to give the bigger ships more HP is in my plan, when I have time, but it has no priority since this mods still works. (instead of what some say) If you don't get it to work, add me on steam and we can join a mutual server and I can show you how to do it.
@ Smugger: There is no config atm, I will put that on my wish list.
I started working in the devkit again since this week, so maybe I will finally push an update in January with this. (the mod should still stay super small)

are you going to update this?

Is it possible to make this use the Max Platform Saddles Settings or does this have any Config File Settings that can be changed?

Ok so is it broken if you use s+ buildings,vanilla buildings,or both?

This is broken. Raft range is just normal and short on every raft type.

I like the mod, but it seems like I've ran into a bug. Basically at some point after I've built it out, the allowable area shrinks. The first time I had all s+ things, but the second one I made sure to use vanilla parts.

For example one place where I currently have a foundation, I can't place a ceiling because it says it's too far from the platform. But, I can place that very same ceiling on the foundation next to it.

Was about to try hitching post... oh well. So long my dreams of noahs ark lol

@ dragonsphotoworks

Unfortunately not, as far as I know there is no fix for that.
I tried using the hitching post from S+ mod as a work around but you can't place those on a floating device.

Does this mod help with falling off raft dinos? Trying find a huge aft I can make a ark on to hold and move dinos.

It was some weird combination of mods, actually. Load order shuffling sorted things out. Sorry about that.

In my singleplayer game, this mod works fine without crashing...

@WatcherCCG: Thanks for your report, although I think it's very unlickely caused by this mod, are you sure it's cause by Versatile Raft mod and not another one?
I'll look into this tomorrow myself. (not home now)

Causing crashes now with the 2021 Summer Bash update.

Build your raft floor fully using vanilla thatch then replace the thatch with the SS or S+ structures. Stone, metal, glass, what ever it doesn't matter just make sure you use vanilla thatch first.

I would suggest to, as I already stated multiple times in all my comments and in the mod description, to use vanilla building pieces, my mod works without any problems with vanilla pieces. I cannot guarantee that it works with other mod pieces as I have no control over their code.
@grwilley: You write in your reply that you are using SS triangle ceilings. Please try vanilla ceilings, and if triangle don't work, then square ones. To be honest I didn't try it myself with triangle yet. Just try it first to see if that works for you. For me it does atleast.

I'm sorry to sound argumentative, but my issue isn't with the placement of foundations, it's things like ramps and ceilings that are the problem. After seeing your tip about using vanilla ceiling (I use mainly SS structures), I craft a couple and couldn't even place them on the last row of SS triangle ceilings, only the row back. Maybe I'm missing something playing on single player, any advice would be appreciated. Cheers.

Please make sure you use vanilla (Stone)Foundations and Thatch ceilings to extent, please search Youtube for how to videos. There are multiple. It does work. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JbCG7NXkIj8

I've just built a battleship raft, hoping it's 15x15 radius would finally let me do the built I've wanted, only to find I cannot place anything beyond the normal vanilla range. On the bright side, it does at least go backwards and has the greater viewing distance. :D

i cant build on the rafts like i cant extend anything only build on the actual raft kinda poopy

On a server and it doesnt seem to be increasing the build limit for rafts

any idea why I can see the rafts in the ingram menu but can't select them or get a build option?

Add me in your friend list, we can talk about making raft bigger or I join your game if you want

@Enforcer, machines on it? I never tried that. haha. What about the vanilla / default raft? I guess it's not much different on a default raft? Then I cannot change it much...

Also moving on the raft when you have machines on it makes your movements stuttery.
If you need a video or so just tell me and i'll make one.

Hey Paul
I have similar problems and it happens when i have creatures or things like poop on the raft. I noticed it when i was taming a Meg wheneven my shoulder mount pooped the raft kinda skipped a bit.
I also have another problem. I made a small base with the battleship raft ( 2 stories ) but i don't really get the size that is mentioned in the description, i made it 5x5 but if i want to add another row it only accepts 3 on the edges

@Tamoon:
I will look on my end. But I would expect more users having problems then, if that is really the case.

rubber-bandy behaviour happens when I park a dino too close to myself while sailing.
Sorry, the speed cannot be adjusted atm.
3rd person view is that far away so when you build high on the raft, your structures won't block your view.
Search on YouTube for raft building videos. there is some tips to align nice. (Mounting the raft, then dismounting and place structure while not moving the mouse, or press "K" then you cannot move your view accidentally.
Look again at YouTube videos if you have raft - extending problems.... and make sure you are using vanilla structures and not modded structures.

Seit dem letztem Ark Update funktioniert die Mod nicht mehr

Also, the rafts seem kind of rubber-bandy. anyone else experiencing that?...

id like to modify the speed for this mod. can you tell me a simple way to do this?

With the Speed/Hunter, I can go up to 2 foundations at the rear. But I can't place a ceiling after to extend one more foundation behind. I get the message saying it's too far from the platform. I'm only using vanilla structure (thatch ceilings and stone foundations). Am I doing something wrong ?

Also, I can't get the first foundation to be perfectly aligned with the side of the raft.
So I ended with a platform sightly misaligned from raft structure.

And last, I would like to know if there is a way to reduce a bit the third view. I would prefer 3 or 4 times.

For those who can't place any more foundations on their ship, put thatch roofs down (cause they can still brach out fsr), and place your foundations inside of them. Then pickup the thatch roofs to reuse them.

yvw.... p.s. humans will slide off and drown if you stay idle for very long. i've even logged off ARK while on a raft and when I logged back in, I was several feet underwater being eaten by sharks.

Thx for the answer!

Yes, all mods; it's an issue I've raised with Wild Card several times since ARK's alpha days, but nothing's ever been done. Bottom line, never leave Dinos unattended on a raft for very long.

When building on a vanilla raft all the Dino's slide off of the raft ever so slowly when 'docked', does this happen with this mod too?

@Scott_hn: Thanks for letting me know!!! So all is fine :)
OK saves me time
Good to hear!
I wish everyone fun playing!

@Paulkravis... sorry to waste your time; I believe the zoom issue is being caused by a conflict with another mod, Awesome Spyglass. Played on a solo map without that mod and your raft mod's zoom was working just fine.

@Paulkravis: Nice, I salute you sir.

@Scoot_hn: I will go and look into it coming weekend. I still have a copy of the old raft files too, so in worst case I could test if copying that works.

Is anyone else having an issue with the zoom not working? Suddenly I'm not able to see where I'm going because zoom is back to vanilla. I saw someone else report the same thing on a different raft mod which made me wonder if it was an ARK update that might have broken all raft mods' zoom features.
