Thank you! Would you also consider removing the requirement for bridge railings to be placed over water? Also because of the seasonal flooding, sometimes the water winds up in such a way that you can't place railings along the entirety of the edge, and it looks really off to have oddly-spaced gaps.

@gh0stashes ooh thank you that is a very good point, yes I will have to look into it

The supportless bridge just being a floor means that during seasonal flooding, the floodwaters flood over the bridge and make it useless. :( Can you consider fixing this?

@Shinzy thank you so much for the quick answer! I can live with intentional, glad to know I wasn't missing something obvious!

@heaven There is no trick! it'll always be the same

(BUT If it is REALLY bothering you you could manually go modify the texture file i've used to all line up with like ms paint. The filepath to find it would be (Steam\steamapps\workshop\content\294100\932124891\Common\Textures\Bridgetjones.png)) but then the texture might revert back to the old one if I ever update this mod

Is there a trick to placing down the supportless bridges so that the textures all line up? I don't have problems rotating the railings, but the bridge itself does not rotate so it places a specific direction which seems based on each individual square. Is this intentional or is there a method to getting the planks to line up in a row like if one had used the standard bridge? I really like this mod, just not sure if I am doing it wrong!

@VOID You're not having a brain fart! This is mostly my fault since the supportless bridge is actually just a floor and not a bridge so you'll need to use the remove floor tool (which is in another building tab entirely so I can completely see why you might feel a tad confused!)

This is strange, I'm not sure if I'm just having a brain fart, but I cant seem to deconstruct the support-less bridge! I've tried the deconstruct option, and the remove foundation option :(

@BenFD I am unsure as to what could make that happen, this could well be some kind of a weird clash with another mod or so but it's hard to say

does it still happen if this is the only mod enabled?

Hello, got a red cross square behind railling piece !

100% would zigzag down my bridge again

Ah so I need to use the support less to make the textures line up, gotcha

@Tonic nope you ain't missing nothing!
This adds the railings and the 'supportless bridge' tile which has it's own texture

the normal vanilla bridge is left untouched

Am I missing something, or are these not vanilla bridge textures?

THANKS FOR THE MOD IN THE FIRST PLACE!

I had plans to have stone and steel railings as well originally when I made this but well now it's been 7 years :p So I don't really see this happening in the near future either

chance*

Any changes you can add a steel railing? :D

@RocketRacoon thank you!

Guys, if you also use designator shapes, from controls options of that mod change it so it doesn't use Q and E for rotate and you won't have issues anymore

@Darkest_97 you can plop them in the water! not on the bridge itself

What am I missing that I can't build a railing on a regular vanilla bridge?

would it be possible to make the diagonal railings be able to be placed anywhere? i'd like to make bridges on land to simmulate walking over a void, but the void is made of floor tiles and hence not bridgeable terrain. Also when building near water banks, it would look a lot clearer if i could build the bridge railing in just one or two tiles from the water

Another trick for the railings with designator shapes is to use minify everything, build the railing and reinstall it. You will be able to rotate it that way. Nice mod btw !

I cant rotate the railings

Anyone know what causes the south facing diagonal railings to layer incorrectly? Sometimes mine look right and sometimes they don't... I'm going to keep using this regardless cause there are just too many diagonal rivers lol.

I'll try to remember to test it tomorrow, but a potential fix for the designator shape issue is to have the "line" option in that mod selected. That's the only designator shape shape type that allows the gloomy windows to rotate. (Sorry for commenting without testing it first!)

@PaprikaRobin
Thank you for your question and enjoying the mod! But I'm afraid I have more or less "retired" from modding so it's not really something I could get done

The mod is called: Simply more bridges reupload! (for the heavy bridges)

Really love this mod! Thank you for it <3

Would it be possible to make it, that diagonal railings use textures from the bridge next to it? (Sorry for writing that so weird.)

I sometimes use heavy bridges and when they have slate or other stone as base, they don't look good with the wooden diagonal tiles :(

@PaprikaRobin There should be one! If I remember correctly I called it "Boardwalk", should be in the tab with the other floors

Would it be possible for you to add a floor covering with the bridge texture your bridges use?

@pearagon
Okay! thank you! In this case middle mouse button might still work, if Q and E won't.

I do remember someone else having the same issue where they could not rotate railings, and the person then found the issue to be caused by mod "designator shapes". But then another person who also had that mod did not have the issue so- I don't want to point any blame! and the cause is still unknown to me nor have I ever had it happen to myself!

Simply changing the order in which the mod is loaded could possibly also help with weird issues!

@Shinzy I cannot in my screenshot when I press q/e twice to rotate 180 degrees, place the blueprint, then build it, it still appears as pictured. when i play tonight/tomorrow ill try loading with just this mod and see if it is something in my modlist

@pearagon You can rotate the railing around you silly billy!

Hi! I think this is me only having a single brain cell, but am I doing something wrong with this horizontal bridge? I can not place the railing blueprint closer :o https://i.imgur.com/qH83vSu.png

I really prefer to keep it lumped together with the railings for ease of use
But really, thank you for pointing this out! I added a note on the mod description, hopefully it'll save someone else the confusion

Can you put the support bridge in the floor category then? Cause I had no idea how to remove it.

@Lekoda If I make it a "bridge" in the code it will also have supports
You'll have to use the remove floor option, I know it's not ideal but this is the best I can do

Bruh the supportless bridge is a floor in the code, It has to be a bridge

Why cant we remove supportless bridges?

Yay! Thanks for the update!

Why thank you smokestack! that is mighty kind of you

Hey, just want to give a big thank you to Shinzy. This mod is essential for me, adds so much charm. To appreciative of you for keeping up with this

I had to resort into making a bridge piece without supports so the railings work nice with it.
But it is now 1.4 friendly!

Awesome! Thanks!

Thanks for your efforts, just take your time!

@Svela not obnoxious at all! I already did a quick update on my end, but as of 1.4 the bridge supports get rendered on top of my railings, so I need to think of some solution to that, preferably something simple and not incredibly hacky

I am gonna have another look at this over the weekend, so possibly early next week (if at all!)

I also have a question, although I fear it may be obvious and thus unnecessary. Do you foresee yourself updating this mod? And if so, are you perhaps able and willing to provide an ETA? I understand that you likely have a life outside of modding so I apologize if this sounds obnoxious.
