Questions:

Q. Does anyone know how to get the stairs to work for this mod? I've laid down a layer of concrete foundation and a layer of wood floor on top but the only snapping point there seems to be is right in the center of the concrete foundation block. So, how does anyone using this get stairs to snap properly?

Noted Mod Bugs (since bugs and posts have been disabled on the mod page itself for whatever reason, still not sure why the Nexus devs allow this to happen in the first place):

1. Despite laying concrete foundation the noise caused by walking upon the surface of concrete still sounds like wood. There is vanilla sound for walking on concrete so this would be an easy fix.
​2. There don't seem to be any snapping points for any of the pillars of any kind whether they be wood, metal, or concrete.

​Conclusion:

​There still seems to be a lot wrong with this mod (despite that I am making an effort to seek answers to some of these findings) but with no clear way to communicate with the author by any means, I can't justify the use of this mod going forward until some form of communication of knowledge of ongoing improvements to the mod has been established.


Thanks for info & input!

I 'cheat' -

 

 

I use place anywhere, and type in via console-command the orientation etc for each piece,

or, use the VSRI node association and utilize it that way.

the crucial snap-zones are the outer perimeter,

which are mostly correctly encoded.

 

I use it in tenements and escarpments,

or as 'ruined' facades.

 

Method 2;

You can also using place anywhere,

'phase' a proper-snappable into the floor, and it will line up very closely to that,

then delete the snappable.

it's a kludge, it gets the job done though.

Unfortunately place anywhere conflicts with a large number of my mods such as scrap everything so the use of it would not suit me. ::(
