How can I actually configure the mod? Alt key is not working.
I have way too much stuff in my radial menu just bloating it beyond recognition. And how can I remove the vanilla structures when I have their S+ counterparts? S+ is already configured to remove all vanilla equivalents

Ummm... lol you nailed it ;) Thanks!

@Officer SEAN Works just fine for me. I haven't had an issue with this mod in many moons. Maybe you rebound hotkeys? https://i.imgur.com/apog309.png
SEANZGAMING 3 Aug, 2022 @ 6:50am 
Well, I removed the mod, and reinstalled it but still can't get the admin settings to show up by holding left ALT or right ALT...but I lets me build without materials and everything else works, so that's good enough for me! :)
SEANZGAMING 2 Aug, 2022 @ 2:25pm 
Yeah, I tried holding ALT and K like I mentioned before, I'll try reinstalling the mod, thx for the quick response!
Quellcrest  [author] 2 Aug, 2022 @ 6:44am 
@Officer SEAN K is not the admin menu hotkey, alt is...might even specifically be left alt, dont quite remember. It only works if you're admin, which in singleplayer you always are and it only works with the tool equipped. If you're sure the mod is installed and you definitely have the tool equipped, I suggest reinstalling the mod.

I can't seem to get the keybinds ALT or K to activate the admin settings...I'm in single player. Not using a host, just my own PC so I should be Admin by default...I also tried holding both those keys, No other mod is using those keybinds that I'm aware of either, so I don't think it's a mod conflict.

@achachala It's mapped to the dino brake hotkey, which is X by default. If you removed it. Assign some key to it in ark options control settings.
achachala 7 Jul, 2022 @ 5:28pm 
Hi is there a way to reset keybinds? The mod says "unknown" for rotate
Quellcrest  [author] 18 Jun, 2022 @ 6:20am 
If you can demolish the structure 1 piece at a time, yes. If its somehow welded together like 1 giant block, probably not.
Quellcrest  [author] 18 Jun, 2022 @ 5:46am 
@JackGenesisX You're using a mod that builds prefabs, like whole houses or whatever? Yeah, probably. As long as the structure pieces are included in this mod or you used the json configs to add them into proper replacement categories, yes.
JackGenesisX 18 Jun, 2022 @ 4:45am 
For example, if I create a structure of the mod that brings already manufactured structures, can I edit those structures?
Quellcrest  [author] 17 Jun, 2022 @ 6:14pm 
@JackGenesisX Yeah. With admin mode enabled, everything is free.
JackGenesisX 17 Jun, 2022 @ 5:28pm 
administrators have more freedom to use this mod than normal players?
Quellcrest  [author] 13 Jun, 2022 @ 5:07pm 
@Bregveleg Set the pull distance in the settings menu to anything that isnt disabled. Then to set a container, aim at one and hit P.
Bregveleg 13 Jun, 2022 @ 2:50pm 
Great mod! It's been working great, the only thing that I haven't figured out is how to set resource containers, the option is greyed out even though I am an admin.
Quellcrest  [author] 14 Apr, 2022 @ 4:51pm 
@magus789 Make a useful bug report in english. For a definition of useful, read the mod desc.
magus789 14 Apr, 2022 @ 4:44pm 
ne fonctionne pas me fait cracher
Quellcrest  [author] 29 Nov, 2021 @ 6:26am 
You can't upgrade structures on platform saddles(saddles, rafts, etc).
As for ini, there are none.
文人一坑货 29 Nov, 2021 @ 5:26am 
Hope to update the platform saddle upgrade or set the ini file
Gothica Rayne 22 Oct, 2021 @ 7:30pm 
OK

ENCHANTED 22 Oct, 2021 @ 9:31am 
Just checking back in to let you know it is all working great on my servers
Quellcrest  [author] 22 Oct, 2021 @ 6:29am 
@LadyChristina77 Has nothing to do with this mod. The worst thing this mod does is forcibly unequip the tool if it isn't ready yet, even that should be very rare.
Gothica Rayne 22 Oct, 2021 @ 12:44am 
i added this mod and a stack mod and when i tried to spawn i would automatic die it happened every time i would log in and i tried it for 4 days had to remove both mods now i can log in no problem
ENCHANTED 14 Oct, 2021 @ 8:04am 
Ok thanks that will work ill check it out. Thats what i wanted so should be good thanks!
Quellcrest  [author] 14 Oct, 2021 @ 7:28am 
@ENCHANTED You can turn on free building/upgrades and everyone gets it and then turn it off when you want. There's no granular control though. It's everyone or no one I'm afraid.
Aures 14 Oct, 2021 @ 7:26am 
Woah, thank you for adding the free upgrade feature!
ENCHANTED 14 Oct, 2021 @ 6:27am 
I have been enjoying this mod it works well for me! Still would be nice for admin to be able to toggle off and on free upgrades for normal players on server as it is fun to just fix up there home base and we have no pvp on the island map it is our sit back and chill area at this point but love the mod and thanks for you work!
Aures 8 Oct, 2021 @ 5:55pm 
I second the free upgrade option proposal so that there will be no need for gcm for non-admins when upgrading.
Quellcrest  [author] 6 Oct, 2021 @ 6:31pm 
@ENCHANTED Nope. I'll put it on the list for a maybe. I'm trying to keep weirdo configs to a minimum. There's already a fair few :)
ENCHANTED 6 Oct, 2021 @ 6:10pm 
Is there a way to give players the free upgrade option. I would like to get free upgrade option to players on The island since we have done everything there and it is just home base area since we have a big cluster
Quellcrest  [author] 30 Sep, 2021 @ 5:24pm 
@betivt I assume that means the mod is somehow not working. If that's the case, reinstall the mod. There's details in the mod description.
betivt 30 Sep, 2021 @ 4:21pm 
ami no me salio lo del mod
Quellcrest  [author] 29 Sep, 2021 @ 2:26pm 
@JustHnoss It's a level 1 engram for 0 points and the tool is like 1 thatch or something. If it's not there, the mod didn't install correctly(Thanks steam!). Unsub, make sure the mod files are deleted in the ark folder: steamapps\common\ARK\ShooterGame\Content\Mods\2592517779
Then resub.
Firella 29 Sep, 2021 @ 2:00pm 
I can't find it in the engram list. What level requirement is it? Is it also called construction tool ingame?
WatcherCCG 14 Sep, 2021 @ 12:13pm 
Okay, fair enough, I was just curious.
Quellcrest  [author] 14 Sep, 2021 @ 11:39am 
@WatcherCCG
I stuck in the most useful and easily upgradeable structures. The wheel is already pretty big, depending on your settings and resources you have access to and I didn't want to take it to the point of being overwhelming.

I might take a look later and stick the rest of the things into like, an S+ misc category or something. Even then though, what gets included? Electricity outlets? What about the nanny? We'll see.
WatcherCCG 14 Sep, 2021 @ 11:30am 
Is there a reason the S+ internal wires and pipes aren't part of the tool's menu?
SOBEK 9 Sep, 2021 @ 11:33pm 
Thanks for info. Stay save.
Quellcrest  [author] 9 Sep, 2021 @ 11:32am 
@PsychomorJulek More accurately, it's not compatible with outlines that awesome spyglass adds, which is a minor feature, otherwise fully compatible. Should be fixable.
SOBEK 9 Sep, 2021 @ 10:08am 
Hi. Mod is not compatibile with Awesome Spyglass mod. If added , outlines of dinos dont work with spyglass enabled. Stay save.
Quellcrest  [author] 9 Sep, 2021 @ 6:30am 
@WatcherCCG Works fine for me. Upgrade has an abundance of settings(knowing the engram, craftable in inventory, crafting enabled, etc). Pickup respects pickup timers too(default 30s for vanilla). There's also that steam doesn't check if something went badly when installing mods. Double check your settings and failing that, reinstall the mod. Still problems, make a bug report with as much info as possible, as I said in the mod description.
WatcherCCG 8 Sep, 2021 @ 8:54pm 
Gonna say that while I love this mod, there are some issues. Upgrade mode doesn't work at all, nor does picking things up, even with admin turned on. Maybe a micro-update broke something, you never know with Wildcard Pasta Code.
GoldenCor 7 Sep, 2021 @ 12:12am 
Since i love to build, i will try this out, it looks useful. :lunar2020thinkingtiger:
jb_aero 6 Sep, 2021 @ 12:16pm 
Ohh can't wait to try this
htdang12 6 Sep, 2021 @ 3:45am 
Looks useful.

Thanks.
