latest update to my patcher has dropped support for the support restriction removal, i had to do this for the time being as i just dont have the time(or lets be honest the motivation to do so as i dont play much now.). maybe when more content drops ill come back to the game and put in the time to re-add the patch. With that being said its sad to say but without that patch inplace anything you built before that doesnt have proper support inplace is going to be destroyed the minute you attempt to add onto it. So i would recommend if you dont want to loose a base you build all without support you dont add to it and probably just build a new base and hopefully me or someone else will re-release a new patch to remove the restriction.
UPDATE:4/10
the latest palworld update(v0.2+) really changed around the code for building, specifically the restriction of "not enough support" i have update the rest of the code just fine to support the latest update and could push that to nexus and github but the restriction for support i have to attempt to find the code again which at the moment i dont really have time for, ill look into it as soon as i have the time but those should know debugging all the code to find a specific function call and/or conditional jumps takes me a long time.
Unfortunately, this mod was no longer updated since 2024. We thank the creator for a great mod. It will be to look for another equally good thing to be.
It doesn't seem to be working for me... judging by the big red NOPE I'm getting trying to place a foundation down in the air with a river about 2 kilometres beneath me.
For the Drap and Drop method... for everyday ppl on Windows.
Step 1: You need to download Python from here: https://www.python.org/downloads/ -- It is simply a computer program language. When you run this installation, it will say ADD TO PATH, click on that option. It will save you a world of pain. - Modder, this step is so important that it should be included in the installation instructions and not added as a note at the bottom of the description page. This is not something natively on Windows. It needs to be installed.
Step 2: Go to Steam, right click on Palworld in your Library > Browse Local Files. This will open Palworld's folder.
Step 3: Open Pal Folder > Binaries > Win64
Step 4: Have the folder where you zipped the Drap and Drop/BuildPatcher into open. You will Drap and Drop Palworld-Win64-Shipping.exe (from Win64 Folder) ONTO BuildPatcher.py. This will cause a CMD/Terminal box to open up and run the python script.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
If you are trying to patched on Linux, I use POP 0S... Drag and Drop does not work. Or at least I couldn't figure it out. You'll need to use the Terminal Box.
My Steps. Step 1 after zipping: Put BuildPatcher.py in your Home Folder.
Step 2: Do as the same in above Step 2 as well as Step 3. > Right Click copy Palworld-Win64-Shipping.exe.
Step 3: Open Terminal > Type "python3 BuildPatcher.py " Then on same line right click and paste what you copied from Step 2.
Step 4: Click enter on keyboard. It should run the script.

FYIs: Does not work on Linux based Server, as in you cant patch the file/files. You can build next to the palbox, in air and on water. Probably only works fully on Windows based server after you patched your game file and the server files.
A couple days ago I wanted to check if the settings actually took effect. So i used the original mod this is branched from and that showed that the overlapping building address was wrong. I haven't tested if the overlapping bases works. You can build next to the palbox, water and air tho.
I use a linux based server so overlapping buildings and overlapping bases never worked for me even with the original mod.
I ~think?~ i got it to work in single player using the DLL method. but on my dedicated server, all it did was remove the red silhouette warning against placing.
so when I try to place a palbox in an invalid location it looks blue until I click and THEN I get the msg in the chat box area saying in too close to blah blah w/e. or, if I try to click to build outside the supported area, say placing roof/flooring/stairs, the materials just drop as if I placed them and it broke immediately.
however, I CAN place foundations seeming infinitely far into the sky as long at there is one foundation black place normally. i can't build down tho, so no multi-level structures sadly :(

Right now I can't even get the DLL to work on my Solo Play, it's weird. None of the functions work
