These roofs are equivalent to overhead mountain but code is handled to prevent infestation spawns

Orange = Overhead mountain
Yellow = Thin rock roof
Cyan = Constructed roof

AreaBuildRoof and AreaRemoveRoof area zones:
Green = Build constructed roof area
Red = Remove constructed roof area

Option Settings to enable/disable auto roof building, power outputs and roof cost adjustment sliders

Compatibility:
I would not install other roof building mods with this one. They would not see each others roofs.
It is compatible with existing save games and if you decide to remove it, I would remove all the mods roofs beforehand.

v1.3 adds performance improvement with solar generating roofs! Includes options to enable/disable roof types.

v1.2 had some save functionality issues, it may be necessary to debug remove solar roofs and re-add them to make them generate power.
