wackyserious Posted January 7, 2020 Report Share Posted January 7, 2020 This is a very significant feature for this alpha, let me say it again. I played last night and, I was way faster at advancing my phase (As for someone who takes city building seriously while playing RTS) 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the patch the optional one is default. EDIT: Also there is a suggestion to not have the "disabled" option, as a user can disable it by set the hotkey to empty. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vladislavbelov Posted January 8, 2020 Author Report Share Posted January 8, 2020 @nani, If I'm not mistaken you had a suggestion about angle after building placing. Could you describe it here? How it behaves now and what would you like to reach? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could you describe it here? How it behaves now and what would you like to reach? When holding shift the placing angle should be preserved for the next building placing. For the code in question -> when the FSM state selection (input.js) is in INPUT_BULDING_DRAG and "mousebuttonup" event is fired tryPlaceBuilding should preserve the angle of the last building for the new building if var queued = Engine.HotkeyIsPressed("session.queue"); is true even if a snapping is happening. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lion.Kanzen Posted January 14, 2020 Report Share Posted January 14, 2020 Is difficult to use changing the pattern or direction. For example an square of houses or multiple buildings. Is a bug saying you can't place over a building. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snapping should rotate the building for a nearest angle to snap to an edge. Do you mean that it rotates more than it should? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

serveurix Posted May 6, 2020 Report Share Posted May 6, 2020 Nice feature. This will make housewalls easier. Will it be available in the editor as well ? Also, we need a similar feature when building walls next to cliffs and docks next to water edges. Perhaps also when building next to trees like suggested in an earlier post. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
