Compatibility notes

It is not recommended to use other roof-building mods alongside this one, as they will not recognize each other’s roof types.
The Raise The Roof Mod is compatible with existing save games. If you plan to remove it, make sure to delete all modded roofs first.

Version 1.3 adds performance improvements for solar-generating roofs and includes options to enable or disable roof types.
Version 1.2 had save functionality issues; it may be necessary to remove and rebuild solar roofs to restore power generation.

This mod uses Harmony for detours and patches.
