one more newbie question ^^

[Oni]

Hiya all ^^

I've made some kinda majestic(since I'm a bad mappeur from now they aren't that fanstastic :P) tall buildings like skyscraper to make a kinda modern town... but, when I go to object placement, I can place one without any problems, but when the times come to place the second one... well, it won't appear like he was ate by this stupid dragon . So... heum.. here is my questions: Do there is any kind of object(building) limitations by map? and, if yes, do there is any way to get by these limitations?(Dunno if I write well :S like.. if I can't do I can in any other way? )

check the limits.

The buildings placed on a map cannot exceed 520(?) blocks altogether. You'll have to find some way to make a place look like a modern city without having to resort to buildings only.

Try hollowing out your buildings, an easy way to get past the limit.

Another way:

Dramatically shrink your characters to make the buildings larger. The proper textures can then be chosen to make them look like extremely tall buildings.

The Block limit for maps is 512.

If you made your buildings totally solid, hollow them out.

There are also a few objects you can merge with buildings to save space.

Having them jutting out of landforms can save space too, all the while making them seem larger than they really are.

If you use the preset object buildings, you can enlarge them to help... just watch out for the borders, they remain at the original proportions.

Good Luck with it.

Peace.
