Help / Roof/Ceiling Collapse removal
February 18, 2018, 07:47:24 AM
Hi, all.

I've been trying to completely mod out roof collapse; it's pointless micromanagement that forces me to make a bunch of ugly buildings with single supports that look gnarly. I hate it; I hate how my ridiculous transparent-roofed indoor pool needs to have marble columns at regular intervals, or face collapse. This, right here, is the truest suffering, and with your help, I can put an end to it. xD

So, I've been tinkering with RoofDefs.xml, and it's very sparse. I'm assuming that, for whatever reason, Tynan decided people would love this particular mechanic so much that it's hardcoded. ;) Therefore, I'm thinking that what I need to do is make a Nonsensical Roof Shield Generator that, while wasting a square, essentially supports all the roofing on the map, in perpetuity. (Which also could make for hilarious amounts of fun if it was destroyed in a raid - but, those are dice I'm willing to roll.)

But, since there's a help forum here, and after having found no posts that feel as strongly about roofs, roof collapse, and roof-collapse related incidents as I do, I thought I'd ask if anyone has a suggestion for a better, or more elegant solution. Thanks so much!
