Outdated Construction Squared 0.9.426

Hello, do you know why the pent house doesn't build all the way? Does it have to do with chunk rendering?

 

It doesn't build because Starbound's Lua API doesn't have any way to "force" a tile to be placed (or maybe there is, but Chucklefish's documentation ranges from out-dated to non-existent). Instead it evaluates placement from a Lua script the same way as if a player were placing it manually, and there are times where the tile can't be placed.

It may also have chunk rendering issues, though I haven't tried to build it in a while.

 

I got it to almost finish, but it stopped after it hit the top

 

Huh, it got farther than usual then. I'll have to try it out again and see what's happening.

I tried it again, it didn't seem to have stopped due to chunk rendering limits.

 

Hm

 

For a quicker example to build/observe, import and watch this build.

 

Says it's corrupt, try uploading again.

 

What says it's corrupt? I can download/use it fine.

 

The archive, I'll try downloading it on my PC, might be my phone

 

That might be it, though I've never had a phone that can use the internet so my experience is limited about that

 

Where would I put these files?

 

Put the .zip in "ConstructionSquared/ructureGen/packages", run StructureGen, go to Packaging > Import Structure > click ExampleT
or
extract the .zip into "mods/ConstructionSquared"

 

Mkay, I'll look into it in the morning

Building now 95% fixed!

As a side note, PentaHouse will fully build now, however you need to stay close enough to the object building it to keep it from unloading otherwise the whole thing restarts.

 

9.7/10!!!!!
Amazing mod!!!
But I have created several structures larger than 200*200 or over 80,000 total foreground and background tiles that refuse to build, so I have to split them into 4 structures. Does the recent update fix this?
Also a suggestion: layer swapper.
Overall GREAT MOD!!!
