Bug Report Forum on Bethesda:
BEFORE POSTING READ THE FOLLOWING: 1.) Check the Mod Version, Make sure you have the mod that works with the DLC you have. 2.) Check the Load Order. My Mod goes AFTER the respected DLC, but before any scrap mods. If you have Settlement mods, put my mod before and test. then move it after and test again. if there is a conflict let me know the mod in question. 3.) DETAILS are THE MOST important thing. Where are you having issues at, does it matter if you jump, run, quick travel, stealth, sleep, die, cry or any other relevant details. 4.) Provide me with your load order, if possible. (I have over 135 mods active on my game alone, some mods merged, some not.) 5.) What version of my mod are you using? PC, PS, XB? Version 1. 0, 2. 1, 3. 0, etc? AIO, NW Only, FH Only, Unlocked, No DLC? ***ALWAYS, ALWAYS, ALWAYS!!!! PLACE MY MODS >>>BEFORE<<< YOUR SCRAP OR PLACEMENT ANYWHERE MODS!!!! ALWAYS!!!!
>>>>>>IN GAME MAX BUILD HEIGHT IS 326 WOODEN STAIRCASES<<<<<<

- I have no plans to make one higher than 9000 so don't ask Yea, It was too much fun to test the build height limits.
- Please let me know if I missed any places.
- Pick the Mod that works for you. Since so few people use the DLC versions of this mod I will not be making unlocked versions.
- Please add any bug reports to the bug report section of this mod and I will try to update or fix them if I can. Thanks.
- Bethesda has height limits for a reason, so be cautious. The more the game has to load the more memory the game will use. EDIT your INI settings t
