This is the 48th week devlog for Cosmic Construct. I really am getting behind on these so the next one will come out in just a few days. Then probably the same afterward.
To follow the game's progress you can join me at:
My bluesky account which gives more frequent updates.
Also Wishlist Cosmic Construct on Steam and follow it's steam page.
Each week I go over development goals set up during the previous devlog post.

Import Buildings
The Casino, being a multipart structure has 3 placement parts in the build menu. There are two tabs in the build menu near the top on the right hand side of the pane. I will be extending that list down to better sort out the build menu later. So that the player isn't overwhelmed by build menu options.
Many of the other structures got imported as well. You can see that the Abattoir has a mass of grubs behind its fence, which will be passively producing meat, bone, and hide. Housing is in, as well as the Courthouse and Restaurant. The other buildings aren't quite ready to import yet.
It's nice to be able to make a small neighborhood now and have it look rather "correct". I screwed up the scale on the front doors again. I'm going to have to remove the steps and re-export the Residence and Bungalow. However, its nice to finally see them in

The Infinite Floorplanner
Again I have unplanned work that ate up time, but I'm glad I've done it. My tangent side project is now live.
If you play DnD, Pathefinder, or other tabletop roleplaying games, I've recreated a truly massive tileset from contributions to Dave's Mapper. It will keep growing as time goes on, but it is more than useable at this stage. With 500 tiles, which are made up of 300 main, 100 side, and 100 corner variations. You can turn and fit them together in any orientation for your dungeon creation needs.

This upcoming devlog, like I claimed the last one to be will actually be a short week.
We are back to doing just the structure art. I'll try to get as much as I can done within the next few days.
