ok, I managed to only get 4 foundtaion pieces to snap together in cross pattern on top of the cliff bases, its very finicky.ive been flying all around it for hour and I'mu nable get any more to lay down. im going try to build this in various locations on the map to see to if its just location based.

I still haven't figured out why it raises like that. I will likely remove the rotate after placement bit as that is when it seems to take off.
Pillar and Curved Pillar Foundations don't require certain ground checks because of the long support beam. And since most of the top area of those cliff bases refuse to be counted as a suitable surface to snap to because of how large they are, the only way to reliably use them is with a Castle Foundation to start then everything else afterward being one of the two Pillar Foundations. I did forget about someone possibly wanting to start with a Curved Castle Foundation so I will add those to the exception list.

I love the floating aspect of it. That is what I used it for. It is floating above my base now for testing. It will be great on cliffs .. but for me, it is a floating foundation. It is an awesome mistake :-)

That was on purpose:) Its not going to be craftable so I wanted people to be able to place them whereever they wanted.

Oh sweet. Then even more-so 100% well done. It looks awesome. Would even ask for some more different sizes and shapes then to make a cluster of floating foundation that we can bridge together seeing they are static. You could actually even make a whole new mod with pieces like that :-) As always, great work Hogs.

these are going to make this mod untouchable when all the bugs and kinks are worked out. so far i am loving this. but i had the same issue i could place 4 or 5 then they drop back 1/2 standard sized offset and you can link 3 more. Much much better and more game styled than the Floating foundations mod.

On a good note i did find that on the west end you can pllace a regular foundation down even with the serface then use pillars on the rest. lol would be awesome if you could just glue 4 of them together and set them on top :\

I posted above, almost two weeks ago, how those pieces had to be used and why. Its not something I can fix as the issue lies in the game engine.
