Vault-tec workshop - How to use different modules?

[cossayos]

So I wanted to make use of the different modules of vault-tec workshop by building up at Jamaica Plains and Hangmans.

 

But not dice. I build a massive stairwell up above the ruinined buildings on the ground and added a corridor from which I wanted to build access to living quarters, caffeteria and such. Only to realize, the room structures don't snap with the corridor.

 

Anyone knows if they fit and how to make use of them?

Use the domestic door endcap and you should then be able to snap the room structures to the corridor.

Thanks, I try that. Can you point me to the vault floor menu? The floors obviously aren't under the usual construction category. Floors like the vanilla floors at vault 88, I mean.

They are listed under Structures>Vault>Atrium.

named rooms don't snap to the atrium floor --- rooms have special floor/ceiling modules that may sometimes snap to a atrium floor

 

the trick I use is to place atrium floors - to get proper spacing - then snap a generic room module on them <- the unnamed red or blue modules

 

then snap a named room module onto that - remove the unnamed - replace it with a named

 

tedious, but it works

 

named rooms will snap to bridges

Thanks everybody. Nothing's ever easy, as it seems.

I never used the rooms for the same reason. They don't want to snap to anything. I will try the bridge and endcap as well

Yeah, it seems to be either or. I find myself mainly using the Atrium tiles because nothing else seems to be an easy fit. And even then it's a pain in the ass to get a roof over the structure.
