Tunnel Time

[†GR†GhostWraith]

Right guys, to save me hrs in experimentation....

Assuming I am using the CRVDENTR piece for my tunnel entrance and it is flat on the ground z=0,0 At what depth do I have to have my tunnel pieces so that they will be level with the lower entrance?????

[Dirt*PR*]

on what stairway u use.... in general try -8 first...then -5.
if ur using the short stairway use -5...the longer deeper stairway use the -8. hope this is right?!

Exactly what Dirt was saying. If you look at the stairways, one will have a -8 in the graphic (you have to zoom in on it) and one will not. The one that is -8, you exit it in the same direction that you enter it, the -5 stair you exit it the OPPOSITE direction. Make sure you give the enter piece a blink group and blink parrent number, and the tunnel sections get a blink group number only. IF you plan to make a LARGE tunnel system, it's best to set up your tunnel in sections ( I use 10 pieces per section ) with different blink group numbers. Where they join together, both sections get the both numbers so that you dn't get the BLACK WALL effect. I also make the change over at turns, this also stops the black wall if you have a long straight-a-way.

Hope this has been of help
