In Game Statue Revamp
Posted: Tue Feb 06, 2018 3:39 am
I’m going to get straight to the point. With the current in game editor statue movement and customization is very lacking. There is no way to rotate objects, no way to change height without exiting the game, no way to make the object separate from the terrain. I feel like with these things it really constricts the creativity of the builder.
Creating a way to rotate, change height, and separate the object from the terrain will greatly improve the overall quality diversity of the environment. I feel it could at another level for what people can do and provide new ways of building. Creating fallen trees by being able to rotate objects or being able to stack tires by changing the hight of the object. It is a very much needed mechanic just needs to be put into the game.
For instance, when I was trying to create a rock cliff and it was extremely difficult. Going in and out of the game trying to find the right hight of each rock was paintstaking. It ultimately just gave up because I couldn’t handle waiting a minute just for the track to load up and it not being at the right hight. (I know I’m unpatient)
Also being able to make the arrow separate from the actual statue would be very cool - (I don’t know if this is possible because I’m pretty sure the arrow is connected in some way with the jm’s) but this would not be a problem if we could separate the object from the terrain.
In the end it is a very long overdue feature that would just be nice to have!
Thanks
