Title: Is there a way to add roads easier?
Post by: Chammy on 14 May 2004, 09:24:20

I was trying to make another town and was fiddling with the raods and noticed how much time I spent in trying to get them to connect correctly.Is there an easier way to do this, and faster?  I notice aslo that the raods tend to be shadowed and flashing.

Oh, and how do I copy and paste?hee hee :-\

In Which editor do you wanted to creat the town? Wrp Tool, Wrpedit, or in Flashpoint editor?

Copy and paste is always possible as
CTRL + C ---------> Copy
CRTL + V ---------> Paste

Oh, I'm trying to make some roads in OFP's mission editor.I'm just using the object placement tool.And the roads are from the object addon tool from @War.

Thanks for the tip.

I made a whole new city when I was a nubie with gunslingers ( or was it kegetys?), A LOT of place and test place and test, place and test. Finally after 200+ objects on there, actual units were placed and a small, lame mission was made that was very laggy... ::) :o

My advice, don't put more than 50 objects on there or lag and a mess of icons will be the result. :(

So basically an already constructed map is the way to go?So then what are the raods in Kegetys  and such for?Arent they there so that one can make another city?Maybe?  Whats the power of your computer?

Theres a far easier way of placing raods :)
WRPUtils! (http://www.ofpec.com/editors/browse.php?browseon=&browsewhat=-1&catselected=-1_-1&catagory=-1&subcategory=-1_-1&numreturn=25&displayformat=0&ofpv=1&searchwhat=1&searchlevel=0&searchwhat=1&searchopts=&searchstring=WRPUtil)
(Link above)

It's a little hard to get used to (The tutorial it good though)
Basicly you draw the roads path, click a button, and save the .wrp file :D
Simple!

Oh, just noticed, is this in the editor or WRPEdit? If it's in the editor, don't listen ::)

Afaik there's not an easy way to place & align roads & fences in the editor.
But...
I've made a post in the scripting ideas board about this and DBR_ONIX came up with a script.

I didn't try it yet, but I'm sure you can use it with roads too.
