Starburstin Posted November 17, 2012 Report Share Posted November 17, 2012 I don't use magnets in forge because I've always used coordinates since Reach. I have OCD and love for things to be perfect so i line everything up my self using coordinates. The problem is, when I make a map with coordinates, save the map, and restart the same map again in forge, everything on the map is altered a slight bit, its not enough to notice with your eyes but if you pick up the piece again and use coordinates, it will line it back up with the grid. I don't know why it does this and if anyone has a solution to this please share it with me, It would help a lot, Thanks! ~Starburstin 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shaudy430 Posted November 20, 2012 Report Share Posted November 20, 2012 I used to have this problem in reach. That issue was resolved by making sure all objects desired to be in an immovable state be set to "phased". Additionally, start a new round before saving to allow all mixes of normal, fixed, and phased objects to reach a "reset" state, before the save occurs. A final option would be to use the left shortcut to lock the object. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Starburstin Posted November 21, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 21, 2012 Hey B0b, i have tried locking every object, still get that weird twitch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shaudy430 Posted November 21, 2012 Report Share Posted November 21, 2012 Wow. It would appear that we have exhausted all but this last option. I avoid this one when possible, but set objects to fixed instead of phased or normal. Be sure and lock it if that is your preference. Last but not least, I have found it impossible to build with 100% symmetrical orientation. There is always something slightly off. Even in the ready made maps by 343 you will notice imperfections. Just get it as smooth as you possibly can! (I'm referring to walking with a player and not experiencing bumps and hops) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starburstin Posted November 21, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 21, 2012 I cannot and will not use fixed, most of my maps have many blocks that are intertwined, guess ill have to deal with this crappy, as I'm referring to it, "Twitch Glitch".

Vehicle Destroyer Posted November 21, 2012 Report Share Posted November 21, 2012 Lock the items, I have seen this. They also need to fix the item grid, the items are not properly made even. so the coordinates don't match up.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ocular Posted November 21, 2012 Report Share Posted November 21, 2012 So glad I am not the only one having this issue. I remade some of my favorite maps from Halo Reach (Asylum, Uncaged, etc) and the pieces have shifted slightly. I will try these solutions. Hope they fix this in the next update though.

Starburstin Posted November 22, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 22, 2012 No need to try them, i tried them all and nothing worked, the first thing i thought of was locking and it was a let down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vehicle Destroyer Posted November 22, 2012 Report Share Posted November 22, 2012 crap, well my map kills itself every time I am not looking.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starburstin Posted November 22, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 22, 2012 Thats a serious problem, might wanna talk to Dr. Phil about that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FaTaL Posted November 22, 2012 Report Share Posted November 22, 2012 I have OCD with my maps as well, I hate that the coordinates will not like the blocks up perfectly, they need to move the coordinates over just 1 more decimal place!

Starburstin Posted November 23, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 23, 2012 I always use coordinates not magnets because of my OCD aswell a lot of the smaller thinner blocks don't line up with the rest, i usually make sure the center of my maps coordinates always end with 5' or 0's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FaTaL Posted November 23, 2012 Report Share Posted November 23, 2012 Is their a way to lay out a Grid so you can make the maps even/symmetrical? I know their is a "Grid" but it is not physically transparent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starburstin Posted November 23, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 23, 2012 Just use blocks to builds, even when distancing an object from another, use a block to make the distance and line them up then delete the one block you used to line up the distance, most of my maps are symmetrical using that technique...Hard to explain, but it works.

Vehicle Destroyer Posted November 23, 2012 Report Share Posted November 23, 2012 They need to just totally revamp the forge tools, and add symmetry tools!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
