    Set the first geo-merged object to spawn 180 seconds and no for spawn at start. Then save after every Merge you do.

    That way if the first object respawns halfway through a merging phase, you can just end the game and go back to the merge before it.

    Hey guys, I'm trying to merge a double box into the wall on Foundry using the door method (the double box is still sitting on the ground, if that means anything). I steadied the box with a bridge on top and two fence walls on the side, and I Save/Quit'd the door into the right position. However, after I Save/Quit the door, I can no longer select the double box. This happens whenever I interlock objects, but I can usually just start a new round and then the box becomes selectable again. However, when I try that the box disappears completely. I don't know what I'm doing wrong, and I never see this problem mentioned in any of the tutorials. I would really appreciate some help. If any of you could actually help me in Forge my GT is Rasberry Monkey (yes, without the "p" in raspberry).

    After you have started a new round, simpy go into the items menu and select a double box, press 'x' twice. Set the minimum to the same number as the maximum. Or you could stare at your TV for three minutes and the box will magically appear and be selectable for you to geo-merge.

    yeh. re-do your braces, or switch to different braces. use tele nodes, or fence walls preferably. and keep trying.. many times.

    Thats a cool way to do it. I never quite got the thing with using walls to level it. it never quite works for me, but I have no problems with the others. Good tutorial![​IMG]

    Wow! This really helps with map building. It seems to give that slight touch between 9 and 10s.
