Multiplayer
⚠️ Multiplayer compatibility has NOT been fully tested.
This mod has primarily been tested in single-player/client-side environments.
If using in multiplayer, installing the mod on both the server and all clients is recommended for the best chance of consistent behavior.
Potential multiplayer issues may include:
- Missing build pieces
- Incorrect persistence behavior
- Rendering inconsistencies
- Placement synchronization issues
Use in multiplayer at your own risk until additional testing is completed.
Compatibility
- Uses Jotunn for prefab and piece registration
- Lightweight Harmony patching
- Designed to minimize conflicts with other mods
- Waterproof variants are separate prefabs and do not modify vanilla assets directly
Notes
- Only buildable pieces are affected
- Existing vanilla pieces are unchanged
- Safe to add to an existing world
- Removing the mod may leave placed waterproof pieces unavailable or non-interactable
