Advanced Building Editor
This is a mod for modders. If you’re a regular player, you won’t need it.
This mod is essential for making buildings with sub-buildings, multi-track stations and airports.
For example, without this mod you won’t be able to make an airport with all functional gates, a multi track train station with all functional platforms for regional trains etc.
Alpha release means that this mod may change significantly in the future and has some unfinished functionality
I already used it to help making some polular workshop assets such as
Modular International Airport
European Main Station,
East-European Train Station,
Incheon International Airport,
Joak’s International Airport and more.
Don’t forget to check ‘Load existing props & decorations’ on making new buildings for spawn points and sub buildings to load!
Spawn points are available in markers section of props menu. They don’t add up to total props count. For passenger stations you will need ‘Spawn Point Target’ and ‘Spawn Point Position’. They can be placed at the same position. But I recommend to use auto-placement instead (one of panel’s buttons).
This mod provides a number of buttons and an options entry. Please familiarize yourself with them before using:
– ‘Reload sub-buildings’ Places sub-buildings according to m_editPrefabInfo
– ‘Auto-place spawn points’ Automatically places spawn points for passenger stations and airports.
– ‘Bulldoze Ped. Connections’ Bulldozes all existing pedestrian paths (pink ones)
– ‘Make All Segments Editable’ Allows to bulldoze existing runways, train station tracks etc. with bulldozer tool
– ‘Reload decorations’ Places decorations and spawn points according to m_editPrefabInfo
I’ll add more decriptions & documentation later 🙂
Conflicts:
– Prop Probability Changer. Just unsub/disable it. Advanced Buildings Editor already includes that functionality.
This mod uses awesome detours C# library[github.com] by cope. Without it, this mod would’ve been impossible to make.
