Adding utilities and equipment

Utilities mode

Every building needs doors, windows and pillars, doesn’t it ? We made it easier than ever to add utilities. Just go into Utilities Mode, drag and drop an object onto its desired destination.

Equipment mode 

Just go into the Equipment mode and search for your product:

  • By typing its name in the search bar on the top right of the screen
  • By checking the tags that are assigned to that technology. You can select multiple tags to narrow down your search. 

Once the piece of equipment found, drag and drop it onto the desired destination. You can then rotate it by double clicking on it, pressing on the lever beneath the equipment and rotating it.

Some objects are stackable on other objects. First use the 2D view  then use the 3D view to check that your object is correctly placed.

Deleting equipment and utilities

Just select the object by double clicking on it and use the “Delete” key on your keyboard. Alternatively, you can use the “Trash” icon in the object overview on the left side of your screen.
