Invisible=true for buildings... any reason not to use it?

GMBigB

Hello!

I am currently using invisible=true for some buildings. But something in my mind tells me, that there was a reason, why this might lead to Internal Errors. But I cant remember what this reason was and I did not find anything when searching this and other forums.

Does someone remember the reason? Or is it absolutely safe to use it?

Is there a way to reproduce it? Do these reconnection errors also occur if the building is outside the visible part of the map? I would like to know more about it.

If you use Invisible or InvisibleInGame, it causes a reconnection error. I would avoid using it at all costs.

Well there's one situation that permits it, preexisting buildings with invisible=yes on buildings don't cause recons. But yeah, Furry queen is right, never allow invisible=yes buildings be placed on a map during a game.

Thanks for your answer. Sounds promising. I only need Invisible=yes for preexisting buildings. I will check if it works fine.
