Hello there! I'm wondering if it's possible to have some UI mod that allows me to see roofing, and perhaps even different colours for different kinds of roofs. It'd be very useful when you have a large structure where you can't see what's unroofed.

Some kind of simple toggle for roofs would be awesome. Even if you want to just zoom out and look at a small town like true birds eye.

I agree that a roofview toggle, would be very useful.

I know that it's not in keeping with the nature of this game but I'd love to be able to toggle to a perspective view of the colony and see the mountain that my folks have been burrowing into. It might also make the way that mortars work a bit clearer for some of us who are spatially challenged.

It's not even not only in keeping with the theme, it's not even possible with the assets.  There are no 3d assets, only 2d.

but +1 for a roofed area overlay.

I would just love to have a toggle to see all the roofed areas, this will help to place things like solar panels and planting.

Dev mode has a draw roofs toggle.

That means a mod to do that without turning on dev mode should be easy, I suppose
