BuildCameraPlus

A craftable Builder's Hammer (1 wood at the workbench) that never wears out. Holding it unlocks everything below. Based on ideas from Let's Build by DezzyCode and BuildCamera by Ymiron; the code is written from scratch.

Features

| Build restrictions | automatic | Off by default. Build where the game refuses (overlapping pieces, steep slopes, dungeons, ...). Every rule has its own switch; based on Building Tweaks by DigiTeam. | | Station build range | automatic | Stations count for building up to 100 m away (1-500): stone walls far from the stonecutter. | | Station extension range | automatic | Upgrades may be up to 30 m (1-100) from their station and next to each other. | | Unbreakable structures | automatic, off by default | Stone and other structures never collapse, so you can build in mid-air. |

All keys are configurable. Each feature has its own Enabled switch and there is a master switch (General / Enabled).

Camera limits

• Flight is limited to MaxDistance (default 250 m, 10-1000) from where you started, in both modes.
• You can place, repair and remove pieces up to PlacementReach (default 10 m) from the camera.
• The workbench must be near the piece, not near your character.
• Wards and material costs work as usual. The camera snaps back if you are hit.

Notes

Single player. Needs BepInExPack and Jotunn. Do not use together with Let's Build or BuildCamera.

Changelog

1.6.2

• New package icon: muted Norse hammer with four small symbols (free camera, area repair, area destroy, planting). No code changes.

1.6.1

• README: fixed the feature table that was split in two on Thunderstore. No code changes.

1.6.0

• Settings reorganised. Sections are numbered (01 General ... 14 Building Helpers) so they appear in a sensible order, and every section starts with its Enabled switch (Configuration Manager shows entries in the order they are defined).
• Camera settings split into Camera, Camera - B mode and Camera - Building reach. Area Destroy, Station Requirement and the small helpers (NoStaminaWhenBuilding, NoStaminaWhenRemoving, AutoRemove, UnbreakableStructures) got their own sections.
• Removed BuildRestrictions/IgnoreAll. Enabled is the only master switch; every restriction is its own switch.
• Section and some key names changed, so an old cfg is not read: delete saymonn.BuildCameraPlus.cfg once.

1.5.1

• Package author is now written with a capital S (Saymonn). The zip is named Saymonn-BuildCameraPlus-1.5.1.zip, so r2modman shows "by Saymonn". No code changes.

1.5.0

• Camera/PickupRadius (2-50 m, default 2 m as in the game): item pickup radius of the flying character in the B mode.

1.4.0

• AreaDestroy (off by default): hold [ (configurable) and remove with the middle mouse button to remove a whole connected structure at once. Limit and village option in the settings.

1.3.0

• NoStaminaCost is now two switches: Building and Removing (both off by default; replaces NoStaminaCost/Enabled).
• StationRequirement: NoWorkbenchNeeded, NoStonecutterNeeded, NoForgeNeeded (off by default).
• AutoRemove: hold the middle mouse button to remove pieces continuously (off by default).

1.2.0

• NoStaminaCost/Enabled (off by default): building, repairing and removing cost no stamina.

1.1.0

• The build camera (B / Alt+B) also starts with any cultivator or hoe (setting Camera/WorksWithCultivatorAndHoe).
• Fixed: building far from the character with Alt+B and Placement Reach (conflict with BuildOnShip), camera switching off in water, station build range circle.
• New icon and hammer artwork.

1.0.0

• First version: Builder's Hammer (never wears out), build camera (B flies the character along, Alt+B camera only, flying under the world, invincible in B mode), area repair, planting in rows and bulk harvest, faster growth in rain and near bees, build restrictions, station extension range, unbreakable structures. Station build range (how far from a stonecutter or workbench you can build).
