The Building Process

Building with The Mighty Architect follows a structured four-phase workflow:

Phase 1: Composing (Sketching)

In this phase, you draw the 'blueprint' of your building. You are provided with a set of tools to define the shape:

• Cuboid Tool: Click and drag to draw rectangular rooms. Scroll up/down to add or remove floors
• Cylinder Tool: Used for creating towers. Functions similarly to the cuboid tool but generates circular footprints
• Adjust Tool: Allows you to point at existing rooms to move them or resize them in three dimensions
• Roof Style Tool: Point at a room stack and scroll to cycle through available roof types (Gable, Flat, Conical, etc.)

Phase 2: Previewing

After pressing 'Finish' in the G-menu, the mod generates a holographic preview of the building. This is a non-solid visualization that allows you to see how the mod has interpreted your ground plan.

Phase 3: Customization

While in the preview phase, you can further refine the building:

• Wall Styles: Change specific sections to be 'Foundations', 'Regular Walls', or 'Open Arcs'
• Palettes: Choose which materials (wood, stone, brick) should be used for the walls, trim, and roofing

Phase 4: Finalizing

Once satisfied, you have three options:

1. Print into World: Instantly places the blocks (Creative mode only)
2. Save Schematic: Saves the design to your local schematics folder
3. Unload: Clears the preview without building
