A simple but powerful tool for building. Upgrade Mode: Replace existing structures with any other potential structure of the same type (Thatch to Metal walls, for example), quickly. Build Mode: Build any structure from a handy radial menu, instead of digging around in the crafting tab(or craft stations for that matter). If you want to see a brief demo of the mod in use, please watch this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TOo_IoLbaKg

- Works on most structure pieces.
- Compatible with S+ and S+ derivitives.
- Partially compatible with CKF: Remastered and CKF: Science Fiction. Some pieces can be upgraded(ie: walls) and others can not.
- Partially compatible with MRRadTools. Some pieces can be upgraded(ie: foundations) and others can not.
- Lots of admin configs to help with server balance.[/list]

- [list][*]Potentially every mod that adds structures. Details: https://steamcommunity.com/workshop/filedetails/discussion/2592517779/3274687384250470345/
- The upgrading of structures is disabled on rafts and anything that counts as a platform saddle.[/list]
- [h1]CKF:[/h1]
- [list][*]Inventory Requirement setting is ignored since these mods don't have inventory crafting anyways.
- Can upgrade SOME structures to/from a CKF structure(ie: foundations).[/list]
- [h1]MrRadTools[/h1]
- [list][*]Limited compatibility. Building is functional, but upgrading is mostly non-existent(only foundation, ceiling and vanilla sized walls).[/list]

- The pulling feature likely doesn't currently work with stack mods.

- More often than not, you get a busted version of the mod downloaded. Reinstalling it fixes so many problems.
