how to find plopables on steam?

[ma2412]

How do i filter buildings, fences, planes, and so on, that i can manually plop on the map instead of waiting to grow randomly? is there a special category in the steam workshop?
or do i have to look into the desired category and are they named especially?

many thanks!

Ploppable buildings need the RICO-mod. If they list RICO as a dependency or the author puts 'RICO ready' in the description of his asset, then you will be able to plop it, if you have downloaded and enabled the RICO-mod.

If being the key work there, sometimes it takes patience searching the workshop. Though, often RICO is overlaid on the listing screenshot, even if it is not actually in the asset title, so pulling up the list of asset type you can scan the list pretty quickly visually.

ok, i am heading for RICO things... thank you!

but some of the buildings, i can plop without this RICO-mod, very strange...

RICO buildings are usually unique buildings, parks or similar without the mod, because they have to belong to a vanilla game category. Often they don't have any function at all without the mod.

ah, so the mod "only" adds functionality to the building - good to know - thanks!

maybe a stupid question, but:
if i make growable buildings like industry or offices and i use plopable things like fences, stones, parking lots, ... what if the growable building changes and therefore it will look wired with the new buildings?
