    Could someone please tell me what item you stack together to float a wall at the hight of a box? I was thinking it was 2 dumpsters but i can't remember.

    On foundry I think it's two dumpsters on their side and then just a wall on top. Haven't forged on foundry in a while so excuse me if that's incorrect.

    On Sandbox, it is a Block, Huge, then two stone columns next to each other with the wider side down, then either one or two double walls.

    It would not work with bridges on foundry because a bridge is roughly 1/2 the size of a wall.

    Or don't stack at all, just place something(I like a pair of wedge, long or one block, huge for this) on top of the block you're floating to, then place another block to be the edge brace, and use a man cannon to push your wall against both the "something" you placed and the edge brace. Now the bottom of "something" is the same height as the top of the wall, and you're done.

    Works for any height, any angle, any map, any object and saves lots of time and effort compared to save & quit.

    I find it easiest to do it with man-canons
    STEPS

    1) place another box where you want your wall to be

    2) place a double wall over it, and one on one of the sides

    3) on the side without the wall place 2-3 man-canons shooting towards the wall

    4) spawn your wall and place it in the man-canons, then wait for it to stop moving at the top

    5) delete braces and man-canons an your wall will be floated perfectly.

    Haha, glad to see my method being promoted by somebody else! I knew there was a good reason I've been posting it in threads like these and showing it to people who forge with me!
