    I don't know if this has been stated before but be careful while merging through the ground floor of the crypt on Sandbox. I have just found that while geomerging through the crypt floor, the teardrop of the object you are merging cannot go below the floor. If it does, when you save and come back, the object will not be merged. I bring attention to this because the teardrops of most objects are on the bottom of the object. A simple flip of the object so the teardrop is in a different position usually remedies this.

    Yeah, any geomerging in the crypt where the tear goes outside, the object deletes itself. Because there is one of those deleting wall things outside all of the crypt.

    No not at all what i am talking about. The object does not delete itself if the teardrop goes outside the walls. i.e: Say you merge a single box 'x' height through the floor of the crypt and the teardrop goes through. When you save and come back, the single box will be as if you had never merged it through. The game will not allow a teardrop to be saved below the crypts floor. It only happens on the ground floor of the crypt, not the walls also.

    Eh so thats why when I was trying to geomerge a column on Prism Block it never went lower than a certain point (Until I flipped it).

    Thanks for pointing this out for the other people.

    Thanks, this doesn't seem like too big of a problem, but it could happen to be very aggrivating if we didn't know about it. Thanks.
