Change Default Apartment Model

Well, I suppose demolishing the building and rebuilding it with a different rotation would work, but it's just an annoyance that I don't know the rotation for the stairs building beforehand if I want to use that model. And if I use this mod, I just change the problem to occur when wanting the default model apartments.

Oh well, I suppose. Thanks for even attempting such a thing, however!

hmm, doesn't really work that well. Does demoing and rotating the site not work?

Kind of. The issue is that once the apartments have been placed, the rotation used for the original model doesn't match the line of symmetry for the new model. The line of symmetry holds for every other building's alternate models except for the "stair" model apartments, as it seems to arbitrarily be rotated 120 degrees counterclockwise. This could either be solved by rotating said stair model, or, as you're suggesting now, an ability to rotate the buildings after placing them down. Whichever is easiest to do! I'd very much appreciate if you could make a mod like that.

Oh, no not placed ones (well without a mod).
Is that what you want?

You mean to tell me you can rotate buildings after they've been placed down? If that is the case, I cannot believe I've not known about that before. Sorry for my lack of knowledge...

You mean rotate it by pressing q (or whatever the default is key)?

Dropping some pictures to show what I mean. These are pictures of the same building but with different skins, and the line of symmetry drawn in red:

Question/request with regards to this mod: What bothers me with the apartments is that the line of symmetry in the stairs model is different to the default model. Would it be possible to get a mod that rotates the stairs model 120 degrees (I think that's how much it needs) so that it has the same line of symmetry as the other models?

Great going to re-enable it! :-)

v0.3
Fixed red apartments (thanks alphaprior).
ChoGGi  [author] 20 May, 2019 @ 11:37am 
Whoops, forgot to edit the palettes.

I think it causes the stairs model to become red. Before the update it was not happening. I disabled and restarted the game issue was gone, Enabled and stairs become red again.
So I think it's safe to say there is a bug or at least some conflict with another mod?

Oh I had no idea Apartments had multiple options! Thanks ChoGGi!

You press the change skin button on the apartments.
Someone did a mod that picks a random skin for any buildings that have it when you place one.

Where does this "Stairs" model come from? Can you build them alongside regular apartments? I would like to build both for more customisation.

It looks more fun!

Toggle the scheme in the ccc screen?

v0.2
Also changes the build menu draggable model.
ChoGGi  [author] 30 Mar, 2019 @ 6:17pm 
yeah I didn't change the drag model.
