Invisible objects?

Merging a coliseum window more than 50% with natural map geometry will often render in invisible. Players can walk on it, but can still shoot and throw grenades through it.

 

I have run into glitches like this, and even I still don't fully understand it. I believe it has something to do with lag, something to do with merging objects into natural geometry, and a bit to do with spontanteous glitches. I have notices that in one of my maps a 5x5 block I merged more than half into the cliff at the coastline did disappear but maintain collision with all player sprites but not any other objects. In another map, a walkway I put down did dissapear... but only sort of. It was the weirdest thing where when I was "standing" on the invisible w.way and not looking at it, it was invisible. But it I looked down at it, it became visible. This happened when as I placed the object down a friend of mine with crap internet joined the game. But the weird thing is that if I start another session of forge it appears visible agian, but if I just grab and letgo of the object without moving it, it turns invisible agian. So, basically I'm not completely sure, but I have my hunches.

 

Coliseum windows will turn invisible if you merge in the cave, but if you go too close or too far away from the window it will flash and reappear.

 

There are a few places in forge world certain objects can be placed that they turn invisible and cannot be picked up. Search the forum to find all the old threads about this.
