There's several issues with the current mechanism for placing buildings and other large structures. Apart from #137 FL lacks a good mechanism for finding good flat spots for buildings to be placed at, resulting in floating platform with very little contact with the ground.
I think bell07's schemlib solves #137, #162 (comment) and that it also provides a fairly robust ground survey mechanism. It's worth investigating for FL. Check out schemlib_mg for a working example of placing large buildings.
