Mod ID: 1149214
Publically Released: 27/02/2025
This mod is cross platform.
This mod will work on any and all maps.
This mod is compatible with other mods and does not require priority in the load order.
==== Mod Summary ===========================================
CKF IS BACK... again... For ASA this time.
Built completely a new to leverage the power of Unreal Engine 5. CKF ASA has more structures than all 3 previous CKF mods combined, with a current total of 564 structures, across 3 distinct tiers.
But no need to worry about storage space, as the optimisations permitted with Unreal Engine 5 allows for this mod to be only 150mb larger than its Ue4 counterpart; CKF Remastered.
If this mod is used on a server or single player game session, any player can fully enjoy 361 free structures with no obligation or need to upgrade.
Any player that does upgrade will also have access to craft and place the Keep Tier set of an additional 203 structures.
The Keep Tier Set is the only set which requires the upgrade.
This works the same way as Bobs type items, and allows players both with and without the upgrade to all play together on the same server with no issues and in harmony.
==== Features ===============================================
- 564 structures.
- 3 expanded structure tiers;
- Settler Tier = Wood strength structures. (Free)
- Villager Tier = Stone strength structures. (Free)
- Keep Tier = Metal strength structures. (Premium)
- A set of utility structures such as storage, apiary, waterwheel, windmill, +more. (Free)
- A set of décor furniture structures. (Free)
- Fully paintable structure parts.
- Fully compatible with vanilla structures and other mod structures based on the vanilla snap size standards.
- Enhanced snap system with a huge increase of part shapes and sizes.
- Adobe cooling on all structure parts.
- Stacking foundations.
==== Future Content plans ======================================
Going forward after release, the next content update will be to expand the utilities to include the forges, grinders, mills, and cooking stations.
Some of the upcoming structure tier content planned is;
- A palisade set to be added into the Settler Tier.
- A greenhouse set to be added into the Villager Tier.
- An expanded dungeon set to be added into the Keep Tier.
- An expanded battlements set to be added into the Keep Tier.
Siege engines will be making their return to CKF, although I can not say if they will be in the first planned content update, or second planned update yet, as I am only one developer and it will depend on time constraints.
There is also a lot of new content planned that has never featured in a CKF mod previously that I am keeping secret for now, as I really enjoy surprising you guys with fun new content.

==== Special Thanks #1 ===========================================
Special thanks to the hard work and amazing builds created by the testing team during the pre release testing of this mod. Not only did the testing team work to spot issues with the mod prior to release but they also created all of the amazing builds on display above, their creativity in the use of the parts I had given them, helped inspire me to create more variations of parts I had not even conceived of before. I am very grateful to such an incredible group of testers.
==== Special Thanks #2 ===========================================
