[list]
[*] [b]Styles[/b]: In order to use styles, you must have [url=https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2023507013]Vanilla Expanded Framework[/url]. Without it, you just get the 1 main style.
[*] 1x1 ceiling lights in 3 styles.
[*] 1x2 long ceiling light in 3 styles.
[*] 1x1 dark ceiling lights for ideology users, with a technist style as well.
[*] Ceiling mounted sunlamps in 2 styles.
[*] Ceiling mounted firefoam popper.
[*] Being able to mount a salvaged gloomlight to the ceiling.
[*] A 2x2 pre-industrial chandelier. If you have [url=https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2594383552]Perspective: Buildings[/url], you can offset them a half-tile to center into odd-tiled spaces. They can also substitute a throneroom's brazier requirement.

Misc:
[list]
[*] As far as stats go, all buildings treat the vanilla equivalent as their parent definition... with two exceptions: Ceiling mounted fixtures take longer to build, and as they are affixed to the structure, they cannot be minified/moved.
[*] Custom placement code restricting fixtures to roofed tiles.
[*] Buildings are all grouped into a dropdown category to avoid cluttering your build menus.
[*] Visibility toggle button.

FAQ
[b]Q. I can't find the lights.[/b]
A. They're all grouped together under a drop-down menu. Usually the Gloomlight is the first on the list.
[b]Q. Can these be built over things like furniture?[/b]
A. Yes, unless the furniture supports roofs (like columns).
[b]Q. I can't install a mounted gloomlight.[/b]
A. Mechnodes you acquired prior to installing this mod won't work immediately. Install them as normal, then uninstall them. Then you should be be able to mount them.
[b]Q. Can the "change graphic" button be less random?[/b]
A. Yep. Go to mod options -> vanilla framework expanded -> and enable sequential graphics.
