[RELEASE] Build Snapping - Extended v1.6 (Updated 02/20/2014)

[Gooober]

I'm receiving the same error as Erteribble but on Chernarus 1.0.3.1..

 

" This building needs a plot pole within any meter"

 

Dayz.st is unable to update so I'm stuck at 1.0.3.1 until they get stuff figured out :(

[bronwaterg]

I cant seem to get this to work

i use this on a 1.0.4.1 server

i placed the custom folder in 

serverip/mpmissions/sayz_epoch_11.chernarus

changed the sqf there 

putted the line into infistar

 

server work try to place a wall doesnt snap

[bronwaterg]

.

[Oatmealism]

Is there a way to make it so walls will snap to flooring (or flooring snap to pre-exsistant walls), or is that just something that will never be enabled?

[glowpowner]

not working

 

i have 2 custom playerbuilds sqf and its says when i de toggle snapping  enabled but nothing is happing

[Sandbird]

Changelog in 1.5 ?

Can you share 1.4 again so i can compare changes ? I've tweaked the hell out of the 1.4 and now i dont know what has changed :/

[jOoPs]

thx for sharing works fine for me on 1.0.4.1 :)

[Oatmealism]

Will it ever be possible to make it so walls and floors will snap to eachother? 

[Randomness]

Nothing happening when i toggle the snap, but as im typing this, it is probably a reference issue

[nbd508]

So i installed the custom folder into the mission pbo; i used my custom compiles folder that is located in the mission pbo under folder "scripts" where i installed Self bloodbag. 

compiles.sqf looks like this.
 

fnc_usec_selfActions = compile preprocessFileLineNumbers "scripts\fn_selfActions.sqf";

if (!isDedicated) then {
	player_build		= compile preprocessFileLineNumbers "custom\snap_build\player_build.sqf";
	player_buildControls	= compile preprocessFileLineNumbers "custom\snap_build\player_buildControls.sqf";
	snap_object		= compile preprocessFileLineNumbers "custom\snap_build\snap_object.sqf";
};

#include "custom\snap_build\points.hpp"
   
    };
    };

Now in game if i pull out a floor or wall it says across the screen "snapping not available for this object"

***NOTE that in description.ext the #include "custom\snap_build\points.hpp" line is not the last line, if i fail to include the };

I am left at waiting for host.

[Randomness]

The include is not at the bottom of your file.

[nbd508]

The include is not at the bottom of your file.

as i said, if the line is at the bottom of the file i get stuck at "wait for host"

[Wheaticus]

No issues on our server with it (running 1.0.4.1), great work our players really love this addition.

[BetterDeadThanZed]

I just tried snapping a wooden garage door to a small wooden wall and although it said snapping enabled, it wouldn't snap. Is this a known bug? Running Epoch Napf 1.0.4.1 with snapping 1.5

Are you using large garage doors if so then then yes small wooden things won't snap to large I'm afraid.

Ah, ok. I thought that might be the issue. I'll need to do large walls then. 

[BetterDeadThanZed]

I created a new base today. A rectangle 3x4 but for some reason the walls didn't match up at the end:

Is this normal? A bug?

[cen]

Some pieces shift after a restart due to how epoch tries to level them out

[credible]

Anyone care to share their 1.0.4.2 & build snapping-combined player_build.sqf?  :)

[Oshydaka]

Awesome work man !

 

Could you do something to just snap edges, and allow to angle your walls around this edge.

 

Cause right now, there are just angles of 90° possible, but it could be awesome if we could do by 5° or 10°

 

What do you think about this ?

 

Thanks for your time

This player_build.sqf should work: http://pastebin.com/uT3EQRvi

[Tchipo]

i install the script on my server. other plays can build with it but i cant.. but when I click on toggle snapping nothing happens.. can u help me with this problem ?

[Kivuli]

I guess I'm the only one having the incorrect snap position error?

[T_D_H]

running epoch 1.0.4 and have been noticing after all users log off the server, any building walls that have been snapped (wooden walls full size, some with windows or doors) end up either disappearing all together, or getting moved around in all sorts of ways after we log back in. the time period we leave the server doesnt seem to matter and we havent restarted the server so it isnt that.

 

Thanks for any help we can get :)
