Posted April 9, 2021 (edited) Have you ever looked at the outside corner of a wall and seen this? First you'll be entranced to know that if you activate a hammer/mallet and right click the wall, you can Rotate either wall to fix it. Why does this happen? Well, it's to do with the actual shape of walls, and the trick they use to make those outside corners look a little rounded (and so good... so long as you don't look at it for too long) See, from above, a single wall segment looks kind of like this: And the fighting is because the walls are merged together like this: Where that corner overlaps, two sides are trying to display at the same time, causing that jittery effect (known as Fighting) This, meanwhile, is a 1x1 stone shack living in perfect harmony: It works because those overlaps are on the inside of the next wall's model, not trying to display to you who is (usually) outside them. This brings us to the comparatively newer Left, Right and T arches. For the sake of these images, I'll be using a RED DOT to show the point of the arch that touches the floor Here's what the left arch looks like: And here's the right: They're not an exact mirror: the difference is in the textures, to which the left and right (with any number of T) can merge to create a smooth texture Look at that bad boy. The keen minded among you might see the issue already, and where I'm going. If this image was a gif, you'd know already. Here's any two arches (since the shape is the same) trying to make a nice outside corner: Oh. Oh no. And before I get into what needs to be done, here's a T followed by two Ts trying to make a corner (interesting design choice, you!): Hoo boy. So how do we fix this for beautiful corners no matter what we do? Well, luckily, the division into Left and Right arches makes this pretty easy*! *for anyone except whoever would have to spend time modelling this fix, but it's still a relatively simple one All we'd need to do is change the arches to be like this: The cherry on top? Barring a few of you might need to rotate some walls that will look kind of like this after the fix: This should have no negative effect on existing designs! Simple. Beautiful. Please do it!
