- Overwall vents and coolers: Graphically replaces the vanilla cooler and vent so that they lay over existing walls.

- Fencepost lights: Torch, chemfuel, and electric. Use Perspective: Buildings to customize their exact position along the posts.

- Not compatible with ED-ReverseCycleCooler
- Real Ruins will have floating vents
A. If you installed this mod to a pre-existing save game, you'll need to make a few modifications. Coolers and vents are placed on top of walls, instead of acting as
walls. Just build some new wall pieces down to fill the gaps.
Q. This is conflicting with the mod Replace Stuff?
A. The in-wall vents and coolers are now a toggeable patch. Go to mod options -> Vanilla Expanded Framework -> Toggleable patches.
- Artwork for the wall heater done by Ecu.
- Skullywag for the original Better Vents and Coolers mods, and Aeon for keeping it alive.
- The Vanilla Expanded team for the framework used in this fork.
- Chemfuel fencepost lights are designed in the style seen in Vanilla Factions Expanded - Settlers.
- Wall heater inspired by SLABBY's WallHeater mod.
- French translation by Laast.
