How to Prevent and Trigger Structure Collapses

Structures placed with the building mode do not float permanently like standard vanilla blocks. The mod includes structure collapse mechanics that trigger whenever the base supports of a build are destroyed, which affects both how you defend yourself and how you attack enemy builds.

Building Stable Defenses

When placing stairs (C), walls (Z), floors (X), and roofs (V) to climb upward or create an elevated fort, always pay attention to the pieces touching the ground.

• Avoid building tall single-ramp towers held up by only one bottom piece. If an enemy shoots out or breaks that single base support, the entire connected structure above it will collapse and drop you to the ground.
• Reinforce the bottom layer of your fort with multiple walls and floors anchored to solid terrain so an attacker has to break several pieces before the structure fails.

Tearing Down Enemy Fortifications

If an opponent builds high above you using the pencil tool, do not waste ammunition firing at the top walls or roofs where they are standing. Instead, aim your Assault Rifle or Pump Shotgun at the lowest ramps and walls connecting their build to the ground. Once the last base support breaks, the collapse mechanic will automatically destroy the rest of the elevated structure.
