A challenge to all the add on makers out there to fill in the missing plot types. For example, if you want an agility training plot, it has to either be a 2x2 or 3x3. And the only other 3x3 training plot available is for relaxation. 1x1's you can only choose charisma, intelligence, or relaxation. And that's just the Recreational plots. All your hard work is greatly appreciated
 
Creating plots takes time, effort and inspiration.
Its not fair to the add on creators to issue a "challenge" demanding missing plot types.Its like getting mad at an author for not having finished writing the next book in a series yet.

As you have identified a need for the types & sizes of plots that are available please feel free to download the (free) Creation Kit and follow the tutorials on creating new plots. That way you can have all of the plots you desire.

 
How about a contest where every month you guys make a missing add on plot and I'll pick a winner and send them a shirt. It might not be new, or the right size, or have cool SS2 graphics on it but it's a free shirt
 
Wow.
Something worse than paying people in exposure.

If you really want the missing plots NDQ and are either unwilling or unable to make them yourself then you should be willing to compensate the creators that make them for you for their time and effort.
If you are unwilling to pay for the items you want created then shut up and enjoy what the creators have made available.
 
Hey I will always accept a donation to make someone a custom City Plan to spec. But I have been known to help other creators out designing city plans for their custom settlements to see how they work. That's collaboration between two different forms of creators. Great thing about SS2 is that you can join the fray in many ways. Plot creation, City Plan design, alternate Settlements, etc. When we work together as a community all is good. But when the ones that are not contributors start, demanding you might say, us creators just do stuff, then we have a disconnect. I don't have the actual time remaining in my life to learn the creation kit, being terminal has that side affect, however I have taken the time to learn what I do have time for so that I can be a contributor and not a demanding user.

Ok so I took it upon myself to actually learn how to build a plot... 72 hours in and I just finished my first 3 level Commercial Bar. So before you start asking for plots, get your arse in to the mix and learn what it takes. Its not easy, it takes a lot of work to just get one plot working, and it is a time sink. So before you challenge anyone again to make anything else, it would be wise to see exactly what it takes to make one. maybe then you'll understand why you don't get very far in the way you go about asking.

72 hours of kitbashing and searching for the right pieces just to get a boring little plot.

Pretty please with sugar on it make the mod better just for me. This is a suggestions forum for the mod. If you don't like how I asked for improvements, I'll buy you some tissues. Your hard work is still greatly appreciated. Just like in the op
 
Don't sell yourself short Din, it doesn't look boring to me.:grin But geez, 72 hours. I now have even more appreciation for the plot designers than I already did.
