Persistent Work Areas 0.1.0 — Preview 1

Pin a building's working-area outline so it stays visible while planting trees, painting crops, or using other tools.

Features

• Keep working area visible checkbox on supported buildings.
• Multiple pinned buildings; overlapping working areas merge into one outline.
• Clear pinned areas (N) button at the top right, available without reselecting a building.
• Optional Clear all pinned working areas key binding (starts unbound).
• Updates for navigation, visible height, and construction-mode changes.
• Pins clear when leaving/loading a map; deleting a building removes its pin.

Installation

1. Download PersistentWorkAreas-v0.1.0.zip below (the compiled mod).
2. Close Timberborn and extract it into Documents\Timberborn\Mods.
3. Check that Mods\PersistentWorkAreas\version-1.1\manifest.json and PersistentWorkAreas.dll are present.
4. Enable Persistent Work Areas in the mod manager and restart if prompted.

Built against Timberborn 1.1.2.4 and designed for BeaverBuddies Stability Preview 6 (1.1.0-stability.6). No additional dependencies; keep your existing BeaverBuddies installation unchanged. Pins are local to each player and do not change the simulation or save files.

Preview status

Release build succeeded with zero warnings/errors; 36 automated logic and game-API checks passed. The UI, Unity rendering, and two-player behavior still require in-game playtesting. This release is marked as a prerelease.

Supports navigation-based working areas, not every effect-radius overlay or district road coloring. Pins are not saved. Clearing pins restores normal selected-building outline behavior.
