Satisfactory Tips & Tricks - How To Create Half Ramps

[@Malao558]

Of course! It’s so simple! These sorts of tricks are all over the game, but it can be hard to realize the way the building mechanics interact with each other, like using beams and road barriers to make weird snapping points. Really helps you appreciate how many challenges come with designing these kinds of systems.

[@Mgsgenesis]

It is fun finding all these tricks to help make blending founations and buildables better

[@fromscratchgaming]

Nice dude. You can also do it with nudge by holding control to get half meter nudge increment nudges.

[@stormgamesyt]

Smart

[@cloudstrife6448]

True, but using a pillar looks quicker, as it freely moves, may just clip more then nudging it. regardless, i don't see why CSS cant just add half ramps to the game lol

[@Mgsgenesis]

I completely forgot Nudge was a thing lol

[@Quorthorn10]

brilliant! saved me so much headache. nice work!

[@taddmooney3575]

For perfect half meter placement you can use lamp posts and road barriers. Lamps snap at half meter increments, and road barriers snap to the lamps if you hold ctrl. Then the walls can snap to the barriers. You only need to place two lamps and barriers technically; the nudge tool can fill in the rest.

[@Mgsgenesis]

There are easier ways then that to be honest, You can place down a pillar and slide the road barrier on the pillar to get the walls more bunched up if you really wanted to. Or you could nudge each wall into place.

I've never seen, nor thought about, this method. Nice!

[@Mgsgenesis]

Welcome :)

[@mysticalmaid]

Great tip!

[@Mgsgenesis]

Thanks

[@rebarius]

Crazy 😮 thx for the tips!

[@Mgsgenesis]

Welcome :)

[@makergaming2022]

This is genius. Thanks for the tip.

I think I simply used nudge to get the half positions, or maybe used some other technique, to get 8 non-overlapping pieces. Not sure if it looked as smooth. Was in U8 when I last did this, and IIRC physics was a bit wonky on walls... friction may differ from foundations effecting run, slide, and driving mechanics a little. But they look pretty cool and fit a void in much needed buildables.

[@Mgsgenesis]

I completely forgot Nudge was a thing, didnt think it could be done that way lol

[@ColouredKaaht]

Good video, straight to the point

[@Mgsgenesis]

Glad you like it :)

[@kiwinesss]

The man!

[@Mgsgenesis]

Thanks Kiwi

[@grant3226]

Great idea, what I need is half walls

[@Mgsgenesis]

That would be a dream to have

[@farty90]

Clever

[@aresivrc1800]

Cool

[@barneygumble4748]

You could build it on a foundation and move it in Hologram mode...

[@Mgsgenesis]

Yeah didnt even think about nudge as i barely use it. But you do what works for you 🤷‍♂️

[@KyloBuilds]

One of the few let downs of 1.0 is we dont have half ramps and half width walls. Ive used this a few times but it still doesn't really help with any material other than concrete. Really hoping a future update ads half ramps, kinda wild they didn't include them in the final release

[@Mgsgenesis]

Hopefully one day they'll be a thing.

[@Disorrder]

Good bye, performance! You can also build a 24-meters ramp with just beams :D

[@Mgsgenesis]

@Disorrder i have a whole road network going around half the map using these half ramps for my side work, doesnt effect performance at all. And you can do alot with beams 🤣

[@Disorrder]

@@Mgsgenesis as a developer I prefer to build as less objects as possible to save couple more fps 🙈 Because they’re drawing on screen and have colliders using cpu and gpu resources. But I didn’t test it really, so prolly not a big problem

[@Mgsgenesis]

Tbh since 1.0 it is so much bettet optimised. I have a 3000 hour save with so much build and my frames are fine :)

[@tehNashty]

Someday I hope you can share all of your tools, and maybe give credit to those that came up with them! I was thinking of a full toolbox...😮

[@Mgsgenesis]

Who came up with this?

[@tehNashty]

​@@MgsgenesisWho came up with what? Half ramp sidewalks? Pretty sure that was you. You asked for ideas for a new video, and my idea was ALL of the tricks you use to make such wonderful builds! I assumed you didn't come up with all of them yourself, so it would be polite to link the original creators in the description or pinned comment. I just would like a single reference to all the tricks.

[@Mgsgenesis]

Oh i get you, sorry i may have been rash with my response, I dont know if i came up with them, but had never seen anyone else show that they had done it, so i'll take credit lol. And yeah, maybe i should look at the tips and tricks i use to build and make a mega video. And yeah i like to give credit to to found the tip, like i did with this video kzbin.info/www/bejne/qam2fJWri9GHkM0si=p6Y7pjlDe0NVhGEq

[@tehNashty]

@@Mgsgenesis I am just grateful for all the amazing things you do! I just hope you have fun! Please don't burn out! Take your time, let your creativity guide you! Thank you! I had missed your last video. Awesome, full stop! I may have gushed a bit! 😳

[@dr.trebuchet3836]

I am wondering, "How the hell did you do that?"

[@Mgsgenesis]

The Secrets out.

[@jdedrington]

Alternately, you can clip a normal ramp into a foundation. This works to make them either narrower or shorter depending on whether you clip from the side or the bottom.

[@Mgsgenesis]

I think you missed the point of them. I use the half ramps for side walks they sit above the roads, there is no option to clip it.

[@jdedrington]

@@Mgsgenesis Ah, fair point. You are correct, I missed that very specific case.

[@Mgsgenesis]

All's good :)

[@TheWistfu]

Hi, can you say me, whats wrong, i cant move object on 0.5m, only 1m

[@Mgsgenesis]

If you hold ctrl or shift it should work

[@TheWistfu]

@Mgsgenesis no, I tried, only grip 1m

[@TheWistfu]

@@Mgsgenesis few minets ago, i downloaded fix and all work, thx
