Can't

You should not snap conveyor gaps to conveyor lifts.

Snap to buildings or storage containers.

Snap lengthwise onto existing belts; hologram can shift to blue, but functionally it severs the belt connections it's snapping to.

Can

Snap conveyor lifts to conveyor gaps.

Snap conveyor gaps to belt ends.

Snap conveyor gaps to vanilla sorters i.e splitters/mergers.

How to Install Build A Gap on Your Server

Order Satisfactory Server

Order a Satisfactory server with at least 4 GB RAM (6 GB recommended). For multiplayer: per 3 players.

Install Mod

Open the mod manager in the dashboard and search for "Build A Gap". Installation dependencies are installed automatically.

Restart Server

Restart the server so the mod is loaded. Players need to have the mod installed locally as well.

Frequently Asked Questions

Build A Gap not working after update – what to do?

After a Satisfactory update, mods need to be updated. Check ficsit.app whether Build A Gap has been updated for the new game version. With Mado Hosting: open the mod manager and click "Update All". If the mod hasn't been updated yet, temporarily remove it so the server starts.

Build A Gap causing crashes in multiplayer – solution

Most common cause: all players must have exactly the same mod version installed. Check server logs for "ModMismatch" or "Version Conflict". Ensure all players use Build A Gap v5.1.0 and the same SML. With Mado Hosting, Satisfactory servers run with 6 GB RAM for stable multiplayer performance.

Is Build A Gap compatible with other Satisfactory mods?

Build A Gap uses the Satisfactory Mod Loader (SML). Generally, SML-based mods are cross-compatible, but mods modifying the same game systems can cause conflicts. Test new mod combinations on a backup save. The Mado dashboard automatically detects known conflicts and warns you.
