FAQ
Q: I'm getting an error.

A: Please copy and post the full script error you have gotten, I will attempt to fix it when I have time. Including how what you were doing to get the error helps too!


Q: How come plates place weird sometimes?

A: the thin props will always be "pulled" towards where you cursor is. The prop is trying to get its "far corner" as close to the dot at your cursor as possible.


Q: Why can't I make a prop this size?

A: I am using props from the "Plastic" and "Basic" tabs in the spawn menu. These props only have so many different sizes. You will have to get creative.


Q: My props are slightly misaligned, why?

A: I spent like 2 weeks trying to figure this out myself and im 99% sure its actually an engine limitation.

If you care for details: Essentially some prop sizes are really ♥♥♥♥♥♥ up and are like 11.98542 or something instead of just 12 and that spirals into problems with how the engine handles props moving and networking a props position to the client. It would not be worth the time investment to fix, sorry.


Q: Will there be support for this type of prop?

A: Sprops are supported, if there are enough requests for another i will think about it. adding new proptypes is time consuming.

Q: How do i enable sprops?

A: Type "tilebuild_sprops 1" in console and restart the map.

would be neat to add support for primitives or sprops (sprops would be easier)

Also do you think it would be possible to automatically determine multiple props for bigger sizes/sizes that dont exist alone?
