Might want to explain the problem more in depth.
Rimworld how to make roof.
You can run out of steel very quickly making a large structure.
I think by default you have steel walls.
The range indicator of mortars is not its actual range but the size of its blind spot.
The mortar is a manned stationary siege defense mechanism.
It is correctly zoned to have a roof.
Is it too large to support a roof over the whole area.
This means that the largest square room you can have is 10x10 internal.
A pawn assigned to construction will automatically build the roof when there are enough structures in place to allow it.
A remove roof area will cause pawns to remove any roofs in a given area.
Indoor roofs are automatically built by builders.
The build roof area allows the player to designate an area which will be covered by thin roofing once a surrounding wall is constructed.
Think there are a couple of things that affect building roofs.
To build a roof outdoors a build roof area must first be drawn.
If not it will not automatically roof.
A roof collapses if there s no support rock wall within 6 squares of the tile.
Not sure why you are marking the outside as a no roof area when theres no mountain.
Larger roofed areas can be built with the use of interior walls as pillars.
You have to mark it in the structure section as no roof.
They just refuse to build it.
You can add supports and it will automatically roof or you can manually add the max roof the supports will handle leaving opening s and leaving status of room as unroofed 2.
You can select one of your colonists and then right click inside the room and prioritize building roof should be an option.
The no roof area allows the player to designate an area which will not be covered by thin roofing once a surrounding wall is constructed.
Make sure you have the materials it s what that is.
As long as there is no other work to be done in there with a higher priority the colonist will finish building the roof.
Once an enemy has entered within 30 tiles of the mortar it will cease fire.
Once he she is inside the room forbid the door so the colonist can t leave.
Keep in mind each roof tile needs to be within 6 range of a wall to not collapse.
The building is about 16 tiles long and four tiles wide.
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.
Or you could just leave 1 square every so often as a support post so you have something to hold up the roof.
A build roof area will cause pawns to build a roof in the specified area.
This is useful for things like.
A ignore roof area will cause pawns to not alter the roof in a specified area.
Hovering over it says unroofed 35 thanks for any help.
