Switches zones

Archive: 4 posts


It annoys the hell out of me the the radius around the switches are only circles

Like a sensor or magnetic switch

I think you should have the option to have it as a square too. Like the box you use when capturing an object that you can change the size of also like the camera zones.

For example if you have a room you could adjust the zone to fit it exactly. With a circle it's just annoying as it would either miss the corners and to fill the room it would have to overlap all of the sides.

Well, you could put a switch on a wall in the third layer, and make the radius a little smaller, so that when Sackboy enters the room, the switch goes off.2008-11-09 13:50:00

Yeah but this would only work for an entrance to the room.

I'm not actually trying to do this with a room, I was just using that as an example


Here's an example of what i'm trying to say

If you wanted to know if A passed B then the circle radius would show that it already did.
Where the Rectangle zone would be much more precise


I don't think it would be to hard for MM to implement this and it would just make things a lot easier.
That's what I think anyway lol

I do realise you could get around this using loads of switches along B with smaller circles and attach them all to an OR switch. But this is a lot of work and still not as precise as the changeable rectangle one.

Can't agree with you more. I've run into this situation quite a few times.
