See this quick video for a basic exemple.

• You need to right click any square, select Architect menu and click on Clear Area.
• You need left click, drag and release to define the zone.
• Then clearing action starts.

• You need something to write (like a pencil).
• You need something to write on (like a book).
• The craft recipe is known by everyone and can be found in the misc recipe category.

• You need virgin blueprint.
• You need to right click a square inside a mapped building, select Architect menu and click on Save Building.
• This is strictly limited for initial map buildings.

• You need virgin blueprint.
• You need to right click any square, select Architect menu and click on Save Area.
• You need left click, drag and release to define the zone.
• Then writing action starts.
• Once done, the affected blueprint will have an awfull name with ingame x & y / start & end positions. You can change it as you prefer with right click and write on the item.

• You need a written blueprint (either from a building or from an area).
• If activated from sandbox options, you need the associated building material.
• You need to right click a square, select Architect menu and click on Place Building.
• A preview of a rectangle containing the lowest floor of your building can be visualised (with eventual doors). Click to validate.
• An action starts that takes a little time then the building is applied.
• If you deactivate "Adjust Building Zone" (default: activated) from sandbox options, the clicked square wil be the most south-east point of a rectangle around the building.
• With "Adjust Building Zone" active, you can change the position of that most south-east point and validate with left click.
• By keeping "Preview Building Zone" active (default: activated) from sandbox options, you can keep track of the rectangle around the building.
• By keeping "Preview Doors" active (default: activated) from sandbox options, you can keep track of the doors around the building (as a thick green symbol).
• You can cancel the building until the end of the action like with vanilla building actions (by pressing escape key or moving or being bitten by a Z).

• You can activate and tune the cost of buildings to your liking from sandbox options (active by default).
• Building Cost is a number of items per "inside" square to build.
• Tick: Activate Building Cost
• Building Cost syntax is "Item1FulltType:NbOfItem1;Item2FulltType:NbOfItem2;Item3FulltType:NbOfItem3;".
• Use Building Cost default value as an exemple.
• The cost of a building is computed once when saving the blueprint. Changing the sandbox options afterward will only impact the cost of future blueprints.

• Can be added and removed from any game save any time.
• Multiplayer is now fully available. (see change notes for details)
• Joypad is not handled.
• The result of a building action has a similar behaviour to player-built structures, not to vanilla buildings.
• You can name your blueprints with vanilla item context menu option (write).
• Huge buildings are strongly NOT ADVISED ! Those (e.g. Malls) will create various unpredictable problems depending on MP / Solo including crashes, never ending freeze and up to save corruptions.
• Do not clear basement stairs or your way to it from below (use Debug > Cheat >Fast move if you did).
• This mod is sort of overpowered which may lead to boredom, beware.
• Use this other mod for B41 and previous versions.
