How to Disable Structure Collision For Your ARK SERVER?

 

Ark: Survival Evolved has a building system that offers a lot of flexibility, but it can feel restrictive in tight or cluttered spaces. Disabling structure collision allows you to place structures even if they overlap with the environment. This opens up more creative building options and adds a strategic edge by expanding potential base locations.
