How do you craft Strongholds? I have the cottage table but it doesn't have Stronghold, I've checked all the other tables I can find and I have no idea how to craft it.

Wow I can't believe you copied Garuga's Indom 👎 terrible

Hello Trainspotting Vagabond, i don't thing you still work on this incredible mod, but if you do, can you add ladder please ? that will be really cool to make even better structure. Thank !

The cottage tier wooden steps don't line up with the door way? As great as this seemed it's pretty limiting with the snap points, which is unfortunate.
xVVitch 23 Aug, 2022 @ 4:44am 
This is amazing! i love it! wish foundations stacked though.

This mod had potential. However, it has a long way to go before I would consider it usable. The snap points are horrible or i should say nonexistent. The pieces barely snap to themselves and don't snap to other pieces in the mod. Almost no placement ability. Placing pieces in this mod is more frustrating than the vanilla game. The mod has a lot of potential but that doesn't matter if you have to fight every single piece. Overall it needs a lot of polish to be worthwhile, but i do love the concept.

Does anyone know of a video showing how to use these pieces.. especially the "FORT" WALL GATE Pieces and the DOCK pieces!!

For some reason the FORT stairs dont snap right for me especially on the double foundation.

Hello Trainsppotting Vagabond and thank for you'r answer. Honnestly and like i say, i was really enjoying the mod when almost everything cost 5 wood for exemple. Because of this and the style of you'r mod, for me you'r mod was really far better than other mod.

And since you'r rise the cost, like every other mod, it become more '' classic '', and their is so much piece that trying most of them is too exepensive.

So in fact they are not really too expensive compare to other structur mod but i really enjoy it better when the cost was really low.

You can for exemple let the first tier at a really low cost, and when you go to castle tier, rise the price.

And again, you'r mod is amazing, and i understand too why you do that.

I hope i'm clear as possible, i'm french so i miss some specific word.

Thank for futur answer and for you'r mod !

Hey @Tachyon and @Alfa. To answer the most recent question, the engrams begin at at level 19 with the cottage tier crafting station, followed by the landscaping crafting station being unlocked at level 40. As for the resource increases, I wanted to give the mod a stronger emphasis on gather resources. With that being said however, are there any specific building modules/props you believe are too expensive?
Tachyon 7 Jun, 2022 @ 10:55pm 
What level are these engrams learned?
Alfa 2 Jun, 2022 @ 3:27pm 
Hello, sorry if this was already asked but before i really love you'r mod because of the style and the really low cost of wall, foundation etc.... So why did you rise them ? They was perfect for the beginning but now it's hard to harvest all of the material.

And do you think you will post a '' copy '' of this mut but with the material cost of the beginning ?

Thank for futur answer and once again, i really love the style.

@Trainspotting Vagabond - Thanks for the info, the message in the Mine inventory screen says it takes obsidian. Also, when placing Mine(2) near other structures it give an error message "Too Many structures in Area". Enjoying your mod, really impressed with the lighthouse effects. Thanks!

Quarries require obsidian and Mines require Silica Pearls
Trainspotting Vagabond  [author] 28 May, 2022 @ 7:47pm 
There must be a second inventory component set in the blueprints. I'll check that out tomorrow.
Risingworld 26 May, 2022 @ 3:29am 
Yes it works now, you need to press the E and take the second option to open the inventory.
Risingworld 26 May, 2022 @ 3:23am 
Thx i will try it out
beeauu 24 May, 2022 @ 3:10pm 
@Risingworld - After placing obsidian in the Quarry inventory, a button "Begin Mining" should appear in the middle of the inventory screen, click it to start the Quarry. The Mines don't work, the button DOES NOT appear after adding obsidian to them.
Risingworld 24 May, 2022 @ 3:48am 
I have place a Quary and Mine and Obsedian inside but notthing happen, what im doing wrong?
Trainspotting Vagabond  [author] 22 Apr, 2022 @ 2:39pm 
No problem!
波少 22 Apr, 2022 @ 6:40am 
Oh, thank you
Trainspotting Vagabond  [author] 8 Apr, 2022 @ 1:39pm 
They're produced in the mines and quarries. You can craft them in the Landscaping Crafting Station.

How to get stone bricks
Trainspotting Vagabond  [author] 31 Mar, 2022 @ 3:07pm 
It's a collision issue I was ignorant of before cooking the update, apologies for the oversight. I'll post a link to my Discord shortly.
Red Mustang 31 Mar, 2022 @ 3:09am 
Just started playing with this mod on single player.. looks really good. Is there a discord? Would be useful to ask questions. I am having problems with the fort pieces. Made a double fort foundation, added stairs, but when I added the roof, I seem to be blocked from getting to top of stairs and standing in the fort tower.
Trainspotting Vagabond  [author] 24 Mar, 2022 @ 1:01pm 
Thank you. A lot of effort went into this mod!
LagunaFox 24 Mar, 2022 @ 12:13pm 
Thanks, dunno how I missed that lol. Really looking forward to building some nice villages with all this!
Trainspotting Vagabond  [author] 23 Mar, 2022 @ 3:29pm 
Yeah the cottage tier crafting table is where you craft the items.
LagunaFox 23 Mar, 2022 @ 12:02pm 
This is possibly a stupid question since nobody else has asked it but I've exhausted my own ability to figure this out. How do you actually craft any of the cottage pieces? Like I learned all the engrams, they are there. However they are nowhere to be seen in the crafting menu. Do I need some kind of special workbench or something?
TheUniqueRaptor 6 Mar, 2022 @ 9:29am 
When placing colonial walls on a default foundation, the bottom of the walls sink through the floor and the window is too far down.
I feel like I'm doing something wrong.
Trainspotting Vagabond  [author] 28 Feb, 2022 @ 9:36am 
I can't do that sadly. This mods purpose is to be a new unique building set. While I would like to have CE and S+ compatibility, many of the snap points which are vital to the functionality of CE would have to be abandoned. Too many changes would have to be made, which in turn would disenfranchise long time users.
TheUniqueRaptor 28 Feb, 2022 @ 8:27am 
It's not compatible with Structures Plus because Foundations don't stack.
Also unrelated, but can you make a version of the walls with match the vanilla height?
It messes up my base when I want to replace my awful old walls with the wonderful new ones from this mod
Trainspotting Vagabond  [author] 27 Feb, 2022 @ 9:44pm 
In what regard?
TheUniqueRaptor 26 Feb, 2022 @ 9:37am 
It doesn't seem to be compatible with Structures Plus, that's upsetting
Trainspotting Vagabond  [author] 29 Jan, 2022 @ 4:25pm 
Of course
PanikPepper 29 Jan, 2022 @ 2:44pm 
Thanks for your comment
Trainspotting Vagabond  [author] 29 Jan, 2022 @ 2:27pm 
Yeah, there is. 2446871574 Sorry for the lack of one on the steam page. I'm going to fix it.
PanikPepper 29 Jan, 2022 @ 2:27am 
Is there a MOD ID for Nitrado?
labr79 28 Jan, 2022 @ 8:41am 
Thanks for your comment
Trainspotting Vagabond  [author] 27 Jan, 2022 @ 8:38pm 
There's no way to instantly copy changes from one wall to another, it's a per basis kind of deal. As for the boat, I believe it's a folder pathing issue in the kit. I'm looking for a fix. @jaredhastings43 @labr79
labr79 25 Jan, 2022 @ 12:10am 
how can I copy changes to one wall to another wall...material etc.
DarkBroth3rh00d 19 Jan, 2022 @ 2:44pm 
How do we craft the boat? I can't find the correct place to do so. Any help or hints? Thanks!
Trainspotting Vagabond  [author] 8 Jan, 2022 @ 4:43pm 
Of course, I'm glad to see your're excited about the mod!
BPian 8 Jan, 2022 @ 12:23pm 
SEHR SCHÖN !!! vielen dank^^
Trainspotting Vagabond  [author] 30 Dec, 2021 @ 6:41pm 
Glad it wasn't permanent
Erigon 29 Dec, 2021 @ 4:57pm 
it was both but i was able to uninstall the mods from the server and reinstall them and it fixed the problem.
Trainspotting Vagabond  [author] 29 Dec, 2021 @ 2:20pm 
In what way? Engrams not appearing in the crafting table/GCM, or items disappearing?
Erigon 22 Dec, 2021 @ 6:29am 
anyone else missing their cottage stuff?
Trainspotting Vagabond  [author] 16 Aug, 2021 @ 7:53pm 
Figured that would be something Wildcard would handle. If I had a good comprehension of foreign languages outside of my native tongue I'd do it.
