Place block with all attributes (settings) of other block

[BigBang1112]

I'm still thinking, if placing block with absolutly all attributes is even possible.
Like blocks placed in a map returns CBlock, that's obvious. But function PlaceBlock needs CBlockModel, which is the actual model with attributes making the visual of it only (very mostly).

As I see CBlock stores all important information like rotation or position, and the CBlockModel itself. But, how about roads?
I think that CBlock holds the "index model" (like turned road, straight road, crossroad etc.), because BlockModels[0] holds the road with short road (index 0), and BlockModels[1] is a completly diffrent block.

So, how is actually possible to place a block with this "kind of index"? Because it's important for my new plugin (and also for my block replacer).

Any ideas, discuss right here!

You can't use the PlaceBlock() function to place this kind of blocks. All road-like blocks that you create by dragging the mouse in the editor can be created with the PlaceRoadBlock() function.

Code: Select all

PlaceRoadBlocks(CBlockModel BlockModel, Int3 StartCoord, Int3 EndCoord)

If you want to create a crossroad or a turn you must call the function two times, exactly like you would do with the mouse in the editor.
