// SAVE AS MODULE //

Save the active level's same-system exterior wall modules as a wip assembly entry.

// EXPORT MENU //

Export to FreeCAD Downloads a .FCStd file openable in FreeCAD. Generates 3D geometry for walls, framing, and apertures directly in the browser — no server required.
Export to JSON (Legacy / Developer) Downloads the layout as a v2 JSON file for use with the compiler pipeline. Intended for developers and advanced users feeding into external tooling.
Export to IFC (Coming Soon) IFC (Industry Foundation Classes) is an open BIM standard supported by Revit, ArchiCAD, and other AEC tools. Export will be available in a future release.
Export Fab Drawings Generates per-panel SVG fabrication drawings with cut dimensions and stud layout. Downloads as a print-to-PDF build book.
Generate Build Summary A coordination packet: modules grouped by run, an in-place build map, a whole-build cut & pick list, plus one fab card per distinct design. Opens as a print-to-PDF book.

// PROJECT SETUP //

Set this build's basics once. These bake into the design file and feed the framing, foundation, and build summary later.

VCS-12 enables exterior wall placement only; downstream trade and export tools remain disabled.

Editing this may affect the engineering of the house (e.g. frost protection vs. skirt depth). Unless you know what you're doing, keep autogeneration.
