With the newest update columns are buildable as apart of vanilla.
Rim world roof support.
You can only have a roof out to i believe 6 tiles from a wall otherwise it ll collapse.
This was a big help because at least i now know that roofs need support and if you have large sections without any walls doors it might not be able to support a roof.
This means that the largest square room you can have is 10x10 internal.

Better to remove as much roof as you can when mining then supporting what you cant.
If not it will not automatically roof.
A single support can support a roof up to 6 tiles away.

Right but i m talking about when i am building a big room and believe i have built enough roof supports only to find there is one or more unroofed tiles but can t find the dumb sunbeams for whatever reason.
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.
Feb 25 2017 7 44am well that s what i thought but as you can see by the screenshot.
This mod will allow you to build patios covered walkways or massive rooms without collapsing the ceiling.
I don t remember exactly but a column and or wall can support a radius of five to six roof tiles from the center.
It s not the priority i am talking about though that is a nice mod for deconstructing buildings with less pain.
However when using the supports from this mod a roof radius will be displayed.
A roof can extend up to 6 tiles from a wall so roofed interiors have a maximum size of 12 cells across the shortest side.
You can help rimworld wiki by expanding it.
Don t tell me.
That means the 7th tile must be supprted.
Jul 31 2016 9 13am think there are a couple of things that affect building roofs.
And that is for everywhere from every side.
A roof collapses if there s no support rock wall within 6 squares of the tile.
A pawn assigned to construction will automatically build the roof when there are enough structures in.
Type zone area placeable yes size 1 ˣ 1 the build roof area allows the player to designate an area which will be covered by thin roofing once a surrounding wall is constructed.
Is it too large to support a roof over the whole area.
The roof is supported far as 6 tiles.
You can add supports and it will automatically roof or you can manually add the max roof the supports will handle.
A roof is an area of cover from the elements.
Interior areas built larger than this will remain partially unroofed.
If there is any tile with is not in that range the roof will not be builded or that tile will not be builded.
It is usefull for a trade becon stockpile roofed zone.
