Agriculture auto-terraformer/snap-to trouble

Obligatory new to the forums and the mod; I couldn't find anything on this question, but I also may be stupid. I'm having this problem with agriculture plots in that getting them lined up/snapped to nicely to satisy my OCD is proving a challenge - they appear to have some sort of auto-teraformer around the plot to smooth the land with the surrounding terrain (which I really like! I think it's a great attention to detail and helps blend the settlement), but am encountering an issue where I have a three-or-so-second window to place the next plot before the terraformer kicks in, making snapping to impossible.

The root of this issue is of course that FO4's snap-to system is hot garbage and infuriating to work with; when that's combined with a low low time limit, it becomes nigh impossible to get nice, lined-up plots (and Sanctuary just doesn't have a lot of buildable land unless you tear down the old houses, meaning that I need to be very economical with space, but I also really like those - I've installed the repairable sanctuary mod, meaning most of the houses are repairable/restorable, and I like the aesthetic of restored prewar stuff). I've turned off auto-assign, thinking that settlers trying to build the plots was what engaged the terraformer, but alas, no dice.

Any help is appreciated. Apologies for mistakes, it's 1AM and I'm losing my mind.
 
To fix vanilla placement issues, use Place Everywhere.
You can scrap the edge pieces so you can snap plots together.
Also, in the City Manager Holotape, there is a setting for how much delay there is between a terraformer being placed and the edge pieces spawning.
