Custom Foundations for base buildings

Nikademis Von Hisson

I made a radar station that is 5by5 and I used the Foundation maker for ARES. The building shows up but it is not captureable. Now when I remove the custom foundation code from the art the building looks screwed up (as it should and I knew it would) but then the building is captureable. Any thoughts?

Have you generated Outline? Don't be surprised if you haven't generated that and the building gets funky. To be honest, this is annoying that I see issues with CF buildings and 99% their cause was that the coder forgot to click on that small "Generate Outline" button.

That is a PEBKAC error, but I might ask Mirage to add it to 0.2 manual.

Yeah, I added out line. Maybe I am doing it wrong. I added the outline, then filled the box so 18 orange squares and 9 green squares. I even tried all 25 green, all 25 orange, all 25 green then made the border orange.

I don't get what are you talking about.

A proper 5x5 square looks like the below in the CFG, generate that.

EDIT: If this one won't work, I'll look into it tonight.

That code is totally wrong. It appears that the CFG you used is broken. Which browser and which generator version? I mean, do you use the CFG attached to the Documentation, or you use the one available from the Ares site (That one is known to be broken)?

Firefox seems correct.

Report the Chrome error. With proper Chrome version.
