Placing 1x1 tile lots on land/water

Hello.

I am currently trying to edit a previously downloaded seawall to my liking. The lot is basically complete with just one tiny obstacle left to tackle. It is supposed to be placed on the very cliffside between the land and the water, so I need to be able to plop it on both land and water in steep terrain. The struggle I'm having is that I know how to edit files to be placed on land OR water, but not both. Does anyone know how to disable these placement requirements?

Any assistance in this matter will be greatly appreciated.  :)

Open the lot in the Reader, add the LotConfigPropertyWaterCompatibility property and set it to 0x01, i.e. true.

In addition you might have to increase the values for LotConfigPropertyMaxSlopeAllowed and LotConfigPropertyMaxSlopeBeforeLotFoundation if the slope happens to be particularly steep, something like 200 and 201 respectively will do.

Once you made the changes to the lot, don't forget to reindex the lotconfig before saving.

Worked like a charm, thank you very much for the quick reply!
