Frequently Asked Questions

1. I'm falling through BBP Holograms. How can I walk on Holograms?

This is possible by enabling collision for holograms.
Change the following setting from 0 into 1: BBP_HologramHasCollision = 1.
That setting is located in this file: bbp_settings.json (make sure that is the file on the server side).

2. Why can't I build Tier 3 (T3) structures, even with admin tools?

• To build T3 structures you need to use a shovel (or an admin hammer).
• Dayz updated the build actions. Scroll through all possible actions with the mousewheel.
• Turn off your VPP admin privileges.

3. How can I use the Land Claim kit?

Land Claim kits are in the BBPItemPack, you can enable them in the settings.
However, we encourage you to try one of these two territory mods, they are superior.

• Basic Territories
• Expansion Territory

4. How to raid a Door?

Doors now have Tiers: T1, T2, T3. Build the tier wall and equal tier door to get the proper raid protection, for example T2 Wall and T2 Door = T2 Protection.

==Further Explanation==
T1 Wall + T1 Door = T1 Protection
T1 Wall + T2 Door = T1 Protection
T2 Wall + T1 Door = T1 Protection
T2 Wall + T2 Door = T2 Protection
T3 Wall + T3 Door = T3 Protection

11. Can I make my own custom Carpets, Wallpaper and Plaster?

Yes, you need to download the following required files: BaseBuildingPlusExamples.
Don’t forget to share them in: bbp-workshop🔨 once they are uploaded to the Steam workshop.

12. How do I enable the Vanilla damage system?

Repack either the BBP_Vanilla_Dmg.pbo or the BBP_Vanilla_Dmg_Doors.pbo into your server pack if you want to use the default values. They are located in the mods folder in the info/Enable_Vanilla_Dmg folder or in #bbp-files.

BBP_Vanilla_Dmg = All parts can be destroyed with explosions! BBP_Vanilla_Dmg_Doors = Only doors, gates and hatches can be destroyed with explosions.

If you want to edit the hitpoints of each tier open the config.cpp and only edit the values that have: //ONLY EDIT ME ((("hitpoints= "ADD YOUR DMG HERE"; //ONLY EDIT ME"))) Then pack the mod and repack it into your server pack. If you know what you are doing you can edit other values if you desire. If you need any help join Discord and ask for help.

Tier	Default Health Value
T1	21,000
T2	10,000 (T1 + T2 = 31,000)
T3	50,000

FYI: T2 is set to 10,000 since once T2 breaks T1 is still standing. For reference the vanilla wood fence has a hitpoints value of 16000. Yes, you can still use breaching_charge mod, with vanilla damage enabled. So more raiding options for players. You can find the pbo’s in the Discord channel: bbp-files📁.

13. How come the Land Claim kits disappear when placed?

Download this fix on Discord: BBP_Pole_Fix.pbo.

14. Can I use materials from my inventory without having to attach them to structures?

Yes, download this .pbo file: BBP_InvBuild.pbo. Make sure you have enough room in your inventory for the required items!

15. Can I spawn BBP_Blueprints around the map only to be used once?

Yes, download this .pbo file: PaperBlueprint.pbo. It will allow you to make blueprints from paper.

16. Is there a way to get build and/or dismantle information?

Yes, through CF Tools.

17. How can I stop my items and holograms (chests, furniture, boxes, etc.) to stop snapping onto building structures?

Download this fix on Steam: hologram fix.

18. How do I dismantle the Cement Mixer?

You can dismantle the Cement Mixer with a Wrench.

19. I have Expansion and BBP and I'm experiencing issues with BBP, what can I do?

A completely wipe of the server is necessary before adding and after deleting certain Expansion items.

20. How do I get rid of a Compile Error?

Compile errors can have many reasons. Sometimes there is a mod loaded in your hosting service that should not be there. Double check the mod list on the server.
