Suggestions / Requests
I love this. I need this in my life. I would like to request some adjustments and additional capabilities, though.

1) Colour support. It would be great if I could specify the colour applied to paintable blocks in the build interface.

2) More freedom in build area.

---Single block wide surfaces and walls (i.e. allow +/- x,y,z widths and height to take all integer values zero and up as input). I like to add trim textures at the bottoms and tops of walls sometimes. Would be nice if I didn't need to do it manually after watching an army of drones assemble a wall for me. Kind of puts a damper on the whole experience.

---> This also allows for constructions with even dimensions, which currently can't be done... :(

--- Support for even dimensions in build interface (not really required if single wide support is added, which I'm sure would be much easier to do).

---Ceiling option in build interface. Would be nice to be able to do tunnel roofs without having to dig above them to do it.

Thanks for your work on this and all your other mods!

I have been greatly enjoying using your paste builder mod.

During use I have come across some things that I think would add to the overall utility of the mod.

Suggestions:
  1. Have a shift + e hotkey to activate paste markers without having to enter the paste marker interface window. (Useful when mass activating paste markers)
  2. Allow the paste marker to create a room that is 3x3x3 internal (currently limited to 4x4x2 internal. Useful to create airlocks for rooms.)
  3. Have more shapes that can be built:
    • A pyramid where you specify the base dimensions and at which height to truncate the top at. It would be nice if you could choose whether the pyramid builds up with the paste mark on the bottom of the pyramid or builds down this the paste marker on the top of the pyramid. Also have the option to make the pyramid hollow or solid (Useful when creating platforms that are not flush with the ground but still allow you to climb up the sides of the platform.)
    • A solid box.
    • A sphere with both hollow and solid options.
    • A torus (donut) shape with both solid and hollow options.
  4. The ability to excavate arbitrary negative spaces. (Place a paste marker down in underground, specify the shape and dimensions you want, and it excavates all the blocks within that region.)
  5. A way to find lost paste markers.
  6. A mode the will excavate a specific block from a given region.

Sorry if I am repeating any suggestions of others that have been rejected.

Thank you for your work creating this wonderful mod and all your other mods!
