How about some extended - end roofs, so they hang out over the edge of the building?

I would like to see upside down slaped walls to build oriels.

I second the request for extended (overhanging) edges!

Door mod would kick ass :) !! oh , and what about windows .... wth is the windows to see whos outside ? It would be really neat to see some sort of " secure" window / door system that would be difficult like metal to gain entry into or harder but still see out. Gates mod ? It just seems like buildings are so basic and lack utility, function and looks. Oh how much better they are becoming with help from you. Thank you

In all honesty; I'd love to see a door on a slanted roof. Maybe even expand it so you can have slanted dino door/roof thing.

That way you can either make a bomb-shelter esque thing, or have convenient roof-access for flying dinos.

But I second upside down sloped walls and ceilings, maybe the ability to have vaulted ceilings.
Mind adding me on steam man i think adding new types of roof with different texutes would be great since i am a 3D gfx pbr artist

let them Count as Ceilings to get the Housing Symbol back and stop the Raining Inside :)

Fence
Fence Door
Fence Door Frame

(Wooden, Metal)
Wooden acts like farm
Metal acts like Guarding Rails

I belive that @Exoddon's suggestion is the same as mine but it is the only thing I feel is missing from your original mod and that is inverted sloped walls. So that in situations like this[i.imgur.com] where I've had to use walls you can use an inverted sloped wall so that the highlighted area is empty like it is to the left where there is currently no wall.

Roof overhang would be nice I agree, I'm wondering if I should make separate pieces for that or let the roofing snap in the middle of the wall similar to how ceilings can, let me know what you guys think on that.

Upside down sloped walls and roofs would not be too difficult and would not require any new items, just fiddling with snap points to allow them to be flipped. I will see what I can do about that after I clean up the current snap points.

Windows/Doors/Hatches are something I've thought about, and will definitely put them on my list.

@Coldust I don't plan add any fencing to this mod as it is mainly intended for roofing only. Although, I am considering multiple building themed mods and fencing would be something I'd love to do, as I did have my own fencing business for a few years, building livestock fencing, residential, and commercial fencing, and have a lot of great ideas for that kind of mod.

Thanks everyone for your suggestions so far.

Love the mod (and future plans)
Can I suggest adding gutters? in that, gutters increase water collection rate from rain and feed into tanks?.

I hope you make thatch hatchframes and hatches. I am planning to build a few tree hideouts and buidlings constructed of green painted thatch on wood pillars is just great for that, but a little limited in construction choices.

There is half-walls, why not half-doors?)

You mentioned roads which I have been working with using what we have in-game. It's not perfect by any means, but here is a sample of what I have made so far, The biggest obstacle is elevation. You have to use ramps in order to go up or down. The problem with this is that you can not simple put a ramp up from a foundation/ceiling without having a support to connect to, which means you have to sort of guess where you place a pillar with a connecting ceiling to go to. There has to be a simpler way of doing this. Having the stone road tiles have a cobblestone surface would be really great and if you could make the ramps the same surface, that would be stellar.
