Solar roofing and controllers explained.
Rimworld fix roof.
If you removed 2 entire walls and the corner between those two sides last then that roof was too far away from any other supports.
Rimworld alpha 17 mod adds in solar panel roofing as well as a transparent type of roofing.
I deconstructed the door then rebuilt it.
Roof collapse hey so i mined an area a little too big in my mountain base and the roof collapsed if i build a few walls under the opening will i get some form of roof again.
I m trying to expand my base by clearing out a small nearby mountain.
This triggers a room check and the builder immediately started roofing the new section.
Keep in mind each roof tile needs to be within 6 range of a wall to not collapse.
So in my case i had expanded the room and 20 of it was left unroofed.
Each solar tile produces 200w during full sun.
Until some building logic is reworked there are a few ways to easily create collapses.
Do we have a maximum room size as well before the roof comes down.
There is no limit to the number of controllers connected to a section of tiles.
A build roof area will cause pawns to build a roof in the specified area.
They will remove it like any other roof.
This means that the largest square room you can have is 10x10 internal.
It will collapse infinitely and there doesn t seem to be a way to get rid of it.
Enclosed areas will automatically prompt colonists to build a roof unless you apply a no roof region or if the structure is too large over 300 cells.
However i can t clear out the final block because of the thick roof.
A roof collapses if there s no support rock wall within 6 squares of the tile.
This is useful for things like.
Structures leave ash on the ground when burnt.
Each controller has a max output of 2500w.
A remove roof area will cause pawns to remove any roofs in a given area.
Also how do i get rid of the bloody big rocks that came down with it.
Maintenance required for thick roofs only maintenance is a long tick once every 2000 ticks.
Colonists can build structures of a various materials each with different beauty flammability and hit points.
A ignore roof area will cause pawns to not alter the roof in a specified area.
Use the regular remove roof area option found in the architect zone area menu to draw an orange area above the roof you want to remove.
If i dig out the final block the thick roof the two empty squares in the image will collapse creating two blocks of collapsed rocks while the thick roof remains where it is.
