    How do you geomerge at an angle?I've tried the ways shown in forging 101 and they just go straight down. I need to figure it out for a gameplay aspect to a dodgeball map I'm working on.

    Are you bracing the object well? I recommend using mancannons pointing in the direction that you want it to. Follow the 101 guide from there.

    First, you need to set a guide down for getting the angle that you want. Often, this is done by placing a Double Box on a Ramp of some sort. Next, brace it on all sides and interlock a guide into it as per Forging 101. Then, save before you grab it, and proceed to Save/Quit after you have grabbed it and it has gone into the ground at the angle and to the distance that you want it merged. I find the best results occur when you are diligent to not touch the right trigger while the object is going down or before you save, as this can skew your results. Also, make sure that you don't let go of the object before you save after you have grabbed it, as this can produce unsatisfactory results.
