I wish we had a bunch of metal grate patterns.

i am not sure this intended so i am conerning building my walls like this for now. they might fix it. as this only works with these tetris slope blocks you see above. it doesnt work with square blocks as they will only snap to the middle of this fenceing.

currently consdering useing this for a walkway around my new harbor marble base. an enclosed walkway so to speak. the advantage is i could build outward small plattforms with iron beams from this (tested it) and put a ballista on this plattform. which looks neat as ♥♥♥♥.

but urgh. constant trips to the mistlands to collect marble. its a slow process but seeing the base grow is so satisfying.

last time i had this much enjoyment form a build system was the forest.
