About this mod Author’s original text

OffGridConstruction Mod

This mod allows to place buildings off-grid and also do fine rotation when holding shift, just like miners. It also allows to move and rotate the build grid to your liking

How to use this mod

  • Install the mod, and reboot the game.
  • Now all buildings can be placed off-grid like Mining Machines

Moving and Rotating the build grid

  • The mod adds a new keybind "Control Build Grid", which defaults to Z
  • While holding the keybind
  • Hover over a placed building to align the build grid with that building
  • Press the "Jump" keybind to toggle between polar and equator modes
  • When not hovering over a building
  • Press the "Build Mode" key to restore the grid to it's initial state (Defaults to B)
  • Hold the "Movement" keys to move the build grid (Defaults to WASD)
  • Hold the "Ignore Grid" key to move the grid to the cursor location (Defaults to Shift)
  • Hold the "Ignore Grid" + "Rotation" keys to rotate the build grid (Defaults to R and the arrow keys)

Install & use Install: BepInEx plugin

  1. The archive from playbuff is the mod itself — usually a BepInEx plugin (a .dll or a plugin folder once unzipped).
  2. Recommended: use a community mod manager (such as r2modman) — pick this game, import the mod, and the manager sets up BepInEx and its dependencies for you.
  3. Manual route: install the BepInEx loader in the game folder, then drop the unzipped .dll or plugin folder into BepInEx/plugins/.
  4. Launch the game — the BepInEx console logs every plugin it loads; seeing this mod in the log means it is installed.

Mods with listed dependencies need those installed too, or they will not load. Options are usually changed in-game or in the plugin's config file.

Dependencies

Install these first, or the mod will not work:
