Interlocking Objects

Best Forging 101 yet except for Spawns. This solves so, so, so many problems in my life. Hallelujah!

Well, no one has given him any credit, so cheers to voodoo for writing this up. Off to make some super maps using this!

Thanks. I figured it would make a good Forging 101 since its really useful.

[Lone Deity]

It really is useful. Since that, I have used it in 2 or 3 maps, that would look terrible without it.

Nice, glad I could help.

I do not understand this. More Pics Please?

Thanks in advance

I dont have pics for you, but I'll try to explain it better.

Say you have a room where every floor piece fits except the last corner piece, the hole is too small for it to sit perfectly, and you would normally have a bump. To fix it, set the piece (or pieces) that are blocking it so that they do not spawn at the beginning of the round. Then restart the round (the pieces shouldn't be there) and place the last piece in the corner. Then, when those objects spawn again change their settings back, and viola, the floor is perfect.

I just used this to fix a busted spot in one of my maps, and I can tell I'm going to get more mileage out of it in the future. I can see applications beyond patching holes, but that's going to be the most useful and common purpose for it. It changes the possibilities on Foundry so much. THANK YOU, THANK YOU A MILLION TIMES for this great post.

Praise Jeebus!! I don't know how you came up with this brilliant plan, but I'm tweaking a map of mine I posted on the boards here yesterday and it's working like a charm. Thanks!!!!
