One of the things I coded early into Sim Settlements was the destruction of buildings when you moved them. This felt really thematic to the Sim City style of play, and was fun to watch them explode!

After seeing how people often use the mod as somewhat of a decorating tool, not to mention the fact that upgrades can cause serious havok to your layout if they gain substantial height, I recognize the need to be able to move buildings. I had previously attempted to add this feature in a patch to SS, but found there were way too many problems with it.

Now that I'm recoding everything, I can build in support for this right out of the gate! Thanks to my time on Workshop Plus, it was a breeze to sort this out.

This feature will of course be optional, as some people might enjoy the old way, plus if you're not using Place Everywhere, moving an entire plot and building can sometimes be impossible.

We're still a long ways off from the recode release, but it's definitely still being worked on!

Moveable Buildings [Alpha Footage]

Sneak peek for Patrons! Part of the massive recode of Sim Settlements that's been long underway - I've take what I learned on Workshop Plus and applied it to plots! You'll have the option to allow your buildings to move with them instead having to rebuild from scratch!

I am very happy to see this happen. Shifting a plot with Place Everywhere and then refreshing it can be such a pain.
