Box Stephouse

In 1 collection by MARH
MARH's mod
36 items
Description
This mod adds Box Stephouses, simple buildings with stepped rooftops.
Carved from the bounding box of vanilla Stephouse, the Box Stephouses have rectangular floors and vertical interior walls.
Its simple shape is suited for warehouses or factories.

You can unlock the new buildings by finishing "Large Buildings Shell" research. After that, you can build them from the BUILDINGS category in the building menu.

Import is not required.
When you remove this mod, I recommend dismantling all Box Stephouses first.

For grid floor → Floor Grid for Box Stephouse

CAUTION
I received a report that Box Stephouses do not appear in the building menu after completing the "Large Buildings Shell" research.
I have failed to reproduce this problem, and the cause is unknown.
If you encounter the issue, please try a mod to replace the required research on Box Stephouse with a new, independent one. →  Box Stephouse Research Change 

--------------------------------------------
UPDATE June 22

- Change the mesh and collision of the Box Stephouse's base and entrance steps
- Reduce Box Stephouse Wide Door's door movement distance
Now you can right-click the wide door when it is fully opened.
- Increase the height of the base of all Box Steps
- Several tweaks for meshes and UVs

@Nightmare
Thank you for the message.
Unfortunately, I do not know of any mods that make all interior walls of vanilla houses vertical.

Hey, amazing mod. Do you know of any similar mod that give all the buildings vertical interior walls?

Updated.
I changed the mesh and collision of the Box Stephouse's base and entrance steps.
This update shifted the Box Stephouse entrance steps slightly forward. → Image
If you are using Box Stephouse in a tightly packed base, you may need to rebuild it.

Thank you for the reporting. I apologize for the inconvenience.

When I encounter similar issues at an entrance, I try the methods below:
1. Back up the save
2. Quick save and reload
3. Press [Shift+Ctrl+F11] , or [Shift+F12] → NAVMESH TOOLS→ press [Regenerate Sector]
4. Dismantle workbenches and storage inside of the troubled building bit by bit
5. Dismantle the building and rebuild it in a slightly different location

Unfortunately, I am unable to eliminate the random entrance issues.
However, I am reworking the meshes and colliders of the Box Stephouse entrances to a simpler form. Because wide and flat entrances, like those of the vanilla Stationhouse, cause less navmesh troubles. → Image
I hope this works.

Hi, I'm having the same error as another user.
Characters can't enter or leave the house. I don't know why; it seems to be random. I should clarify that this happened suddenly, as the house was working and had several workstations inside. The bug occurred in the "Box Step House L." The character can reach the stairs but won't be able to enter or leave if they were inside. I tried using the shift + f12 menu to reset the structure or using the "fix stuff" button and resetting the squad position from the load game menu. Unfortunately, none of that worked. :steamsad:

I am totally okay with uploading the translation mod :)
Thank you for trying my mod and translating it!

Hi MARH,

Thanks for your great Box Stephouse mod! I’ve uploaded a Spanish translation so more players can enjoy it. Full credit is given to you, along with a link to the original mod.

Let me know if you're okay with this — I’ll remove it if needed. Appreciate your work!

Best regards.

@Sir Luis
Thank you for replying. Now, I am beginning to understand.
But as I wrote in a reply to another user, I do not have time to work on Kenshi mod now. So, I am afraid I cannot build such a building for you.
I would appreciate your understanding.

@Pashka
Thank you for the message.
Honestly, I am unsure if I understood your description correctly, as my language skills are insufficient to understand the terms of architecture.
I am busy and cannot make new mod buildings right now, so I am afraid I cannot be your help.

@MARH thank you for the reply and nope. the same same box stephouse except it has an extra floor thats as big as the first floor
