Build Info

Ah, I see! I can understand the difficulty of getting your point across with so little space :)

It's a bit hard to explain in short there, what exactly is unclear about it?

The thing I'm trying to do there is raise awareness (maybe "WARNING" is a bit too much? xD) about how the block's emissives (the colored glowing bits on the model) behave.
With both toolbar slots having actions, it will color the emissives with blue when it triggers one and cyan for the other (forgot which is which, I'm mentioning it in the toolbar GUI).

But if the slot doesn't have any actions (on any pages) then it will not color the block at all, and if someone were to rely on that coloring to debug things then they'd think it's broken or something, it's just bad behavior IMO.

I can't find any reference online for this warning displayed in an Event Controller, any ideas? https://imgur.com/a/7evx6BE

No, but that does sound like an useful idea for creative tools/mode only.
Problem is, I haven't found a way to change the block's preview model in realtime so that's mainly why the construction models are all shown like that, but also that mode makes it harder to place things and I'd need some new key bind probably to cycle the selected construction stage...
I could make it a multitool instrument to set the construction stage for an existing block, but that's similar to using the welder after placing :/ it'd be way faster but still probably not what you had in mind?
Can you think of something more streamlined for player to do to tell the mod to place a specific build stage? Also if you want to chat about this more in realtime, I'd say ping me in KSH's discord in #modding-programming - DM would be fine too but in the public channel others can pitch in too, maybe someone has a better idea on the UX part... there's even a professional UX programmer lurking around there.

Not sure what you mean, this mod doesn't add any numbers to the inventory bar and vanilla doesn't have that either.
Sounds like you're using a specific HUD mod and then added another mod that also modifies the HUD definition and since they're not additive only one of them can work. You can tell which mod it is by the changes it made to the HUD (compare screenshots between that and vanilla).

@MagboneD
dont think you can place down the build stage preview and need to place them down the normal way and then build them up far enough, building them fully and then grinding them back down has no use besides wasting time as the grinded down block cant take more hits before getting destroyed than the same block just welded up as far as you want it.

@Abisuus No, I'm referring to the Alt+R function of Build Info that lets you see the block model for each stage of welding progress the block with go through during construction (mentioned on the Build Info Readme (link below):

It's cool and all, but I'd like to include some of those models in my creative build without placing and grinding down a bunch of individual blocks.

@MagboneD
you mean the shadowblock you have when selecting for example a light armor block to place?
if thats the case thats part of vanilla and you should find the key you hava avaible to place that block inside your games keybinds.

Is there a way to actually place the construction models from the Construction Preview? All I seem to be able to do is view and rotate them.

is there new build info stuff for the food update?
