Draconis Race(Humanoid Dragon Race)
Some Odd Issues with Draconic Items
Firstly, I want to say I really love and enjoy the race. It's very well done. But well... there are a few things I've never quite understood how they work in game, and feel they could use a fix.

NOTE: I'm playing this within the 'Frackin Universe' expansion. It seems to be compatible, but the problems might be getting caused by that? I don't know, and sorry in advance if there is a known conflict I'm not aware of.

'Sleek Metallic' Roof and Wall items

How were these meant to work? From what I've been able to see, they only allow themselves to be placed hovering slightly above normal tiles, and refuse to allow any measure of overlapping that might let them be placed in a more aesthetically pleasing manner. They also don't allow you to place them hanging partially off the top of a building, thus preventing you from making that 'ledge' most rooftops have along the edge.

For example, when you build a house using normal tiles, you can then overlap them with any kind of roofing tile, making for a decent, intelligent appearance. But these tiles won't let you do anything like that with then in any manner.

The Wall items are the same. They don't want to connect or overlap with any of the normal tiles, which usually leaves them suspended in midair when trying to build anything with them. Sometimes, they'll flip *themselves* to a bad angle then tell you it's ok to place them there, which is extremely frustrating and disappointing because the parts look great. They just don't fit anywhere.

The 'Angular Ceiling Light'

This item is just confusing. It's a cluster of orange crystals in stone hanging down from the roof... but it gives off a white spotlight that is cone shaped?

Huh?

Shouldn't these either glow with a steady or pulsing orange or orang-ish yellow color, or at least give off a cone of orange or flame toned light? Considering their size, you'd think each one would have a wider coverage area as well. The how and why of the white cone of light from these while they themselves don't glow even faintly is just very strange to me.

Now that I'm experimenting with the parts, I'm also having trouble with the various 'Draconic Sheet' parts that form the tent. They're very hard to align, and when trying to do so on the right side of the tent, actually refuses to line up properly at all. I was forced to leave a hole in the roof in order to even come close, and the entrance sheet was misaligned as a result. The problem seems to lie with the 'slant sheet'... the long angled sheet that forms the rooftop of the tent. It just doesn't seem to want to be connected properly on the right side, though I managed to get the left side to work fairly well.

I guess it needs to be here, but some items from the Hellforge (and especially the most important one : the Hemoglobin) has too much crafting ingredients than we can't see it !
Plus, we can't move the "window" compared to any other crafting tables' windows ...
May it can be changed ? I really want to see how powerful the weapons and armors are, but I can't even see how much molecules I need ^^"
