Blueprint Gizmo Settings

The “blueprint” gizmo offers a real-time preview of building structure. It lets you visualize the size and layout of the building before its creation.

Blueprint Gizmo Structure

The blueprint gizmo is summoned by construction interfaces when they are needed, and promptly disappears when the structure is deployed.

  • Top Level: The topmost floor of the building structure.
  • Middle Level: The midfloors of the building structure, between the top and ground floors.
  • Ground Level: The first floor of the building that sits on the ground (usually includes the entrance to the building).
