PlacementPlus
Place held items exactly where you want with move and rotate controls, return them to their spot instead of throwing them, fix hanging ceiling lights, and add a large set of extra objects to the decor menu including working security fixtures.Changelog
1.0.2
- Security fixtures added to the decor menu with proper names: security cameras, sentry guns, laser tripwires, alarm switches, and alarm sirens. The mod lets you place them in your own apartment even though the game normally refuses. They are the game's real devices, so they work once placed (a sentry gun arms). Turn the set off with the IncludeSecurity config switch.
1.0.1
- Placed items no longer go missing after a save and reload. Items you set down, especially stolen ones or items left somewhere other than your own apartment, could be dropped from the save or cleaned up by the game. Anything you place with the mod is now kept with the save so it is still there when you load back in.
- Moving a light or fixture that was already in the room now sticks. Repositioning a ceiling or wall light that the game had placed could let it jump back to its original spot when you looked away or reloaded. Fixtures you move now stay where you put them.
1.0.0
First release. A decorating and placement quality of life mod that does not change gameplay rules, cases, or how citizens behave.
- Precision item placement. Pin any held or carried item in front of you, move it around, and rotate it on any axis, then set it down frozen at that exact pose. It works with any item you can hold, and the object stays where you leave it through saving and loading.
- Copy and paste rotation while placing, so a row of objects can all sit at the same angle.
- Smart put back. Dropping an item near where you placed it returns it to that exact spot with its rotation intact, including items on walls and racks that the normal drop would otherwise throw.
- Ceiling light fix. Snaps player placed ceiling lights up flush against the ceiling instead of leaving them hanging below it.
- Move furniture further away in the decor menu with the arrow keys, so you can reach the far side of a room.
- Surface clearance. Nudges a placed object back out of a wall, floor, or ceiling so it cannot sink behind a panel and become impossible to pick up again.
- A large set of objects that are normally hidden from the apartment decorating menu are added to it.
Every feature can be turned on or off and every key can be rebound in the config file. See the README for the full controls and the list of added objects.
