I created this as requested by some users of my other mod.

Credits :
Of course this wouldn't be possible without the work of monkeyman192 on MBINCompiler.
periander for the PSARCTool.
Lo2k, redmas, RaYRoD118,..I've learned most of my modding by looking into what they are changing in their files.
Thanks to laughingdead and snarkhunter for their input and suggestions which brought about this mod, along with the several kind words from users of my other mod.

Compatibility :
This mod is incompatible with any mod that modifies \METADATA\REALITY\TABLES\BASEBUILDINGTABLE.MBIN
(Merging may work but not tested)
AnkhNeter's Clipping Quarters WILL conflict so please remove it if installed.

Warning:
1.  If the game public version changes/upgrades, please make sure to test that the function of the mod still works before building any new structures.  An easy way to test it is to place a wall, then check that the modded items can be placed clipping through the wall.  If so, good to go, if not remove the installed mod and update.  

Reason: This file holds properties for all of the buildable objects in the game, so new additions have the possibility to put the edits out of order. HG may changed/added objects properties in this file, which in turn could cause the function to break and cause unintended issues.  Any objects placed with a mismatched version may possibly need to be deleted and placed with the correct version installed.

2.  
Because collision is disabled on these items, there may be adverse effects if not placed carefully.  e.g. buried in another object.

Installation:
1. Download the mod
2. Unzip/open the downloaded file
3. Copy "AnkhNeter's Clipping Construction v2.22.pak" to your "*\No Man's Sky\GAMEDATA\PCBANKS\MODS\" directory.  (EXML folder is not needed and is only there for reference)
4. Ensure the file "DISABLEMODS.TXT" is either renamed or deleted in "*\No Man's Sky\GAMEDATA\PCBANKS\" directory.
5. ENJOY!

Removal/Upgrading:
Because this mod is only changing the collision check during the objects placement, removing this mod or updates should not break any currently built structures.  When the game updates, delete previous version of AnkhNeter's Clipping Construction and install the matching version.

My Other Mods:
AnkhNeter's Clipping Quarters (For those that prefer less modifications.  Do not use both)
