Thoughts about the hard-coded floor...

[Crispy_]

1. Was it difficult/time consuming to code?
2. Would it be possible to make non-infinite coded 'floors'?
3. Would it be possible to angle them?
4. Would it be too hardware intensive to have more than one of these?
5. Would it be possible to hard-code a full map-like area using this?
6. Would that even be practical to do so?

bonus. Would an add-on be able to do this?

aka Are hard-coded maps possible?

I hate to bring this up, but I had this thought. What if we placed a whole bunch of those hard coded floors and simply angle them to form hills and such.

I copyed around 50 floors and it didn't lag

I just tried it again and it does lag, infact.

do you mean just replacing the fxPlate(floor?) with a staticShape?
i doubt it would do anything.

Yes, I had the same idea. I got everything working except for the "non-infinite" fxPlanes. That doesn't seem to be possible at the moment.

When the fx plane ground was released, it broke a ton of stuff and was generally an absolute mess to try to manipulate via script.  I'm not sure if it has been changed since then, but it was impossible to generate a brick below where the fx plane should be, some vehicles go nuts when you hit where the fx plane should be even if it is deleted, among other things.

Has there been a map released with that?
Or can anyone release a quick map before this weekend?
I'd love to do a ski server!
