Default Connecting column arch mods?
I want to let columns still create an arch with each other when there is two tiles space between the columns instead of one tile.

No connection when they're two tiles apart


For even tiles, it would be nice if columns can connect with each other at a wider space.

I think they need to be 3 apart and that has never been modded as far as I know. Would be nice though.

each column is on it's own square, with one square in between...isn't it?

Connecting columns are three tiles when forming an arch, if you don't have the empty tile between them then sims would never be able to walk through them. Also, they cannot just be "modded". Each piece is it's own mesh.

I was thinking there were 2 tiles empty beneath the arch but I rarely use them.

@hugelunatic: do you know by chance meshes that allow arch connection if there's two tiles space? (I've added pictures for clarification btw)

Does that mean it is not POSSIBLE for someone to create?

I would probably just fake this by making a matching column that has the arch shape built onto the top, then I could use that piece to create one half of a longer arch, and, at least, one middle piece that has an arch on each side, something like that. I would have to think about what pieces are needed. It's rather like the way I made the Pleasanter View Bridge from the meshes that the game uses to generate the bridges.

@grammapat: thank you! Now I have to look for extensions for wooden and roman columns
