Short Wall Ramp

In 1 collection by MARH
MARH's mod
36 items
Description
This mod adds compact ramps for vanilla Defensive Walls.
The new ramps are listed below:

For short wall
・Defensive Wall II Short Ramp
・Defensive Wall III Short Ramp
・Defensive Wall IV Short Ramp

For regular wall
・Defensive Wall II Short Ramp Center
・Defensive Wall III Short Ramp Left, Center, Right 
・Defensive Wall IV Short Ramp Left, Right

You can unlock all new ramps by researching new research, "Short Wall Ramp."
"Short Wall Ramp" is a level 2 Defence research and requires no research cost.
You can find all new ramps in the Ramp - Short groups of WALLS category.
Please note that a ramp needs a wall to build it. Therefore, you have to research Defensive Wall to use new ramps in addition to Short Wall Ramp.

Import is not required.
I recommend dismantling the new ramps before removing this mod.

-CAUTION-
Please make sure that the bottom landing of the ramp is on the ground.
If the lowest step is floating in the air, characters cannot climb the ramp.

Please keep ramps clear of any obstacles.
The new ramps are narrow and winding like a fire escape.

Please keep animals away from ramps to prevent them from getting caught.
Animals other than goats cannot go through the new ramps.

--------------------------------------------
UPDATE February 24
Fix the meshes of Short Ramp IV
--------------------------------------------

-note-
A ramp cannot be attached to a short wall adjacent to regular (long) walls. Also, wall parts like "Connectors" and "Wedges" will hinder the construction of ramps.
I recommend building a ramp in a section where there are three short walls in a row.

You cannot build multiple ramps on a wall at once.
To construct another ramp, click "Confirm" after building one ramp and reopen building mode.

Okay, thank you for taking the time to look into it. I will provide more details if I find anything else.

I had repeated the same thing 5~6 times but experienced no crashes when the ramps were placed or constructed.
The engineers were once stuck around one of the completed Short Ramp IV. But I cannot claim it has something to do with the issue.
I would continue the same test a little more, this time on more bumped terrain. Please let me know if you notice something.

For now, my advice is that:
Before and after you build short ramps, save and reload the game to stabilize the NAVMESH and collision.

I tested the ramp issue. The steps are as follows;
Test Image
Built Wall IIIs and attached Short Ramp IIIs onto them.
Upgraded Wall III to Wall IV.
Removed all of the Short Ramp IIIs using both the right-click menu and the Dismantle button in the bottom left menu.
Entered the building menu and built Short Ramp IVs.

No problem, thank you for making the mod. Let me know if you need anything else.

That is the info I want. They are the short ramps for regular wall IV.
Thank you for the quick reply; it helps the experiment to research the issue.

I am honestly not sure what the difference is. It was the level 4 ramp that let you select between left and right sides of the wall.

Thank you for reporting. I will look into it.
Could you tell me which ramp caused the crash, if you remember?
Is it the ramp for the short wall IV or the long(regular) wall IV?

I had some level 3 ramps in their walls, I upgraded the walls to level 4, removed the ramps, and when placing *some* of the new level 4 ramps, my game crashes.
