How to Remove Foundation Support (HELP PLEASE)
In my GameUserSettings.ini file i have put the ss header and then underneath put "NoFoundationsRequired=true" but for some reason i am still not able to place ceilings without support

Anyone know how to fix?

When such questions arise it's typically a problem in the config or they misunderstand what the config does.

All ceilings must be able to snap to something.

All the config above does is allow you to extend those ceilings beyond two tiles. And prevent collapsing when you remove supporting pillars, walls etc

So how can i build with foundation support? do i need to put a pillar down first and then i can build as far out as i want?

Celings can not snap to the map mesh. You must always start with a foundation or pillar.

As I said earlier though... You can later remove it and the structure, with this configz won't collapse.

Just so i can understand. Start off with a pillar go out as far as i want with ceilings, then once i reach the distance i want with the ceilings just remove the pillar i used from the beginning to start off with?

1 pillar
1 ceiling.
Remove the pillar
Do whatever you want from there.
