🎯 Tips & Tricks
Since it's a gameplay mod, make sure EAC is disabled if you're playing on a dedicated server—otherwise it won't load.
Test placement on a creative world first to see how it changes snapping and rotation before committing to a survival build.

- Installing multiple mods that modify the same files without checking compatibility
👍 Pros
- Huge community trust: 4,239 endorsements and 348k downloads show it's a go-to for builders
- Actively updated (July 2026) so it's likely compatible with current game versions
- Directly improves a core gameplay loop—placing structures—without overhauling the game

- No install instructions or dependency notes provided, which might trip up new modders
- Only one mod author, so support might be limited if issues arise
