Make Modules Great Again - 5: Modules Source Storey

[Karoly Horvath]

Mod files should not remember what was their source storey.

Why?

If someone uses the Iceberg Method, meaning the module is created in the source file on a negative storey,

if a new storey is inserted between 2 existing module storeys, the whole model gets messed up.

Creating modules in negative storeys may still be relevant even if Make Modules Great Again - 1: In Place Module Management was implemented.

I would like to have "special" stories that host only modules like a hidden iceberg. Many times I had someone add an extra story between 2 existing modules and mess up the whole model.

[Karoly Horvath]

Yep, special  storyes may have the same effect as what I wished for, however, I think tha if mod files simply don't carry the source storey info, that would work too. Probably easier than creating special storeys.

Not to mention the best solution which is in place modules.
