Buildingplan allows you to place furniture, constructions, and other buildings, regardless of whether the required materials are available. This allows you to focus purely on design elements when you are laying out your fort, and defers item production concerns to a more convenient time.

Buildingplan is an alternative to the vanilla building placement UI. It appears after you have selected the type of building, furniture, or construction that you want to place in the vanilla build menu. Buildingplan then takes over for the actual placement step. If the placed building requires materials that aren’t available yet, it will be created in a suspended state. Buildingplan will periodically scan for appropriate items and attach them to the planned building. Once all items are attached, the construction job will be unsuspended and a dwarf will come and build the building. If you have the unsuspend overlay enabled (it is enabled by default), then buildingplan-suspended buildings will appear with a P marker on the main map, as opposed to the usual x marker for “regular” suspended buildings.
If you want to impose restrictions on which items are chosen for the buildings, buildingplan has full support for quality and material filters. This lets you create layouts with a consistent color, if that is part of your design.

f you don’t want to use the buildingplan interface for the building you’re currently trying to place, you can hit AltM or click on the minimize toggle in the upper right corner of the panel. If you do not wish to ever use the buildingplan interface, you can turn off the buildingplan.planner overlay in gui/control-panel (on the “Overlays” tab). Be sure to keep the buildingplan “System service” itself enabled in gui/control-panel since if you turn it off, existing planned buildings in saved forts will stop functioning.
