    Guide to geomerging walls​

    Brief Description: Ok so I've been learking around the forums, and I've noticed that many people have trouble with geo-merging walls. I am here to show you a picture guide on how to make those annoying walls turn into masterpieces. I know that Bl00d f1r3 has a forging school guide, but apparently many people still dont understand how to do things. (so dont say that bl00d f1re already has something to teach people, because i know he does and people still need "merging wall help"). ​

    If you like the picture guide and have more request for different guides just tell me what kinda of picture guide you need and I'll try to get one up

    I also used the save and quiet method

    Wall
    ok to geo-merge a wall is simple. First set up a wall and brace it with one recevier node on each thin side of the wall. Then place two recevier nodes on each side of the longer end. put 2 doors on the top. (like so)​

    grab it and save changes then quiet​

    ok next is the same process but with wall double's. First set up a wall double and on the thin sides put one recevier node, and on the laong sides put 3 recevier nodes. put 2 doors on the top. (like so)

    grab it and save changes then quiet​

    Now to put double walls into the foundry wall is easy. most people say its hard but its not. its simple. First pace a wall double down. then put 2 receviers on top of the wall double and 3 on the long sides. Put 2 doors on it. (like so)

    [​IMG]

    grab it save changes then quiet​

    Ok thats how you do it, its the same process with fence walls. If you liked the guide and need help with something else just ask and ill try to put up a new picture guide. If you still need help just ask. ​

    I wasnt trying to copy anyone, i just thought i would make this guide to clear things up​

    Nice guide, I should try this next time, every time I geomerge walls, the wall always manages to squeeze out of the teleporter nodes.

    Btw, I got a question, lets say you just geomerged the "wall" into the walls of Foundry. Then you want to geomerge it a bit lower. Is it fine to just simply geomerge the wall as normal, like setting up the braces and doors. Or do you have to start all over and place doors on top and side to geomerge it at an angle.

    Evil, I always found that the object stays straighter if you did it one at a time. But either method would work.

    And also, if you are having trouble with the braces, then make sure that you are trying to pick up the wall on the side (while facing the object) that has the doors on it. Usually, that can push it in cleanly.

    And really, this guide works for boxes as well. You only have a bit more width so you have to place a few more braces.

    yeah @ D R O is right it does work with boxes

    @evilvillager all u have to do is once u put it in the ground once, just place the doors on it agian and grab it. you dont have to replace the nodes if u dont want to, i found it to work just find without doing that
