structural solutions - where is the "ss concrete/metal material" used?
I cannot find any objects that will accept it, even in the mod itself.

In this mod all items are concrete, no conversion to metal
i think you misunderstood
i'm looking for stuff that are valid targets for these
They are unlocked in different tiers (milestone)
they're already unlocked but i'm not finding a valid target
So you are right, I don't understand your request.
Everything is accessible for me
build a piece - then try to paint it using "ss concrete"
I took a concrete block of 4x4xhalf
If I apply the SS Concrete, it turns into Block Curved 8x8x1... 🤔
i got that bug too but after a reload it doesn't happen on the same save :S
now i just get "invalid target"

dunno if it's a known thing but thought it might be worth letting ya know
FYI if you "paint" an SS Concrete piece with a metal finish (chrome, caterium, etc), they will turn into SS Metal.
yes, but you cannot apply ss concrete to go back
But you can just apply a regular paint colour to go back?
Oh shit, I retract that.
Wait...
Okay, yeah, you can. Paint it a regular non-metal colour, then use the SS Concrete material.
Knew I'd done it somehow, heh.
Hm. It's actually quite inconsistent on which ones I can use SS Concrete on directly, and which ones I have to paint first.
Direct SS Concrete, but swatches don't work:
Swatches work, but SS Concrete doesn't:
kinda awkward tho
These two material swatches are not set up yet, and they wont work for any parts. They are there for organizational purposes. Only painting swatches and finishes will work on the parts. All my concrete parts use the vanilla Concrete swatch and the metal parts use SS Painted Metal swatch. You can freely paint them with both.
"yet" lol. It's been something that I have noticed a long time ago but I brushed it off as a bug with experimental at the time.
other than this oddity, it's a good mod though.
