Build mode to place foundations and walls the same way as conveyor lifts (place multiples instead of one at a time)

Question

For big builds, placing foundations and walls one at a time gets tedious. It would be nice to have an option when placing foundations and walls to place multiples instead of one at a time. This could function much the same way as placing conveyor lifts: click the start location, drag for the number of foundations or walls desired, then click again to place. This would make building large structures so much more convenient.

Absolutely agree with this!! Similar to how you can build a foundation or room in any The Sims game, click and drag.  I hate how finicky it is to build multiple foundations when off the ground. You constantly have to keep changing your position to highlight the right side.  I think this would work great if you had to build one foundation first to fix the height but could then click and drag from it.

this is why i am not ready to rebuild my base. too much effort to redo the floors and walls

This has been requested before, but the fact that so many people have the same request... I think this has to be implemented ASAP.
If a dev reads this: you are doing a fantastic job! :)
