Is there a way to snap a vendor building inside of a shell?

[VioletGrey]

I was trying to place a vendor building inside a shell, with limited success. The issue is that I can't get it perfect. Is there a quick way to snap it in there so it's perfect, or is it just going to be 20 minutes of hit-or-miss attempts before I can get it right?

I'm loving the game so far except for this issue and some frustrations with pathing. Thanks in advance for your answers.

what shell? u mean like an empty vendor hut? these prefab ones? then double click them to enter group edit mode and then place ur facility

Yes, the empty ones.
I did try to click on them to see if there was a button or something that would snap the vendor stall into place within them, but couldn't find one.

You can do it two ways. One wat is as described as above. Hit the empty shell and click on edit or hit the 'r' key on your keyboard. You then enter editmode for the selected building and you can place the shop in the same grid.
Second way, you click on the shop you want to place, go to the right bottomside of the screen, and select the button "select grid" click on the emptyshell and place it that way.

when you have the facility selected to place, chief beef or what ever, just hover over the shell and it says something like add to building, then it should snap to position. You may need to press shift to lower.

I do also believe that if you play through the tutorial this is one of the things it shows you.

Thanks so much.
It's not in the tutorial. I did the first tutorial twice, and 90% of the second tutorial, and didn't see it mentioned.
Thanks everyone for the replies.
