CD3 Random Street

ShadoWWW · September 2008

There is an option in Random Street to random size of houses. Is there an option to random rotation as well? I mean if the random houses could face to various directions. It is obvious when you make a street of 100% "U" houses. All U face to the street in the same direction. It would be nice, if the houses randomly faced to one of 4 direction (in front, from back, by right side or by left side). Is it possible to make it randomly now? If not, it would be nice to apply it in a future patch.

Yes it is Shadowww. Turn off the Align to road option, that should do the trick if i'm not mistaken

btw any one wants to get a hold of me at any time rgraham@star-fleet.org on msn

I'm happy to help with anything I can.. I just might be really slow at times hehe.. Gildors Rook and the like does that

Thanks for answer, but it's still the same.

I'm posting the version how it is and the second one how it should be.

No, random rotation is not possible with the street tool at this time. We'll put it on the wish list.

Thanks, Ralf

That's a nice idea. I've also added "Random Varicolor", although I think I might offer an option to limit the color palette. Thinking out loud, we could also offer random fill styles, or even random house styles.

I like them all! More! More!
Kidding aside, those would be great options, Simon.

ShadoWWW · September 2008

Sounds nice. :-)

Eagerly awaiting those Simon. Options like those would make this great add-on even greater.

An option that I would like to see; just to be throwing things out, is a text path ability. It would be very nice if we could choose a road for instance and tell the text follow this path. Then the text would conform to that roads path even if it was winding. It could be great for rivers as well.

You can already do that in CC3. I can't remember off the top of my head though, but it is in the instructions.

You can find it under Draw -> Text along a curve

doh how did I miss that one. Do you know I looked everywhere even in help, but I must have passed over it. Finally I can do some thindgs I always wanted to.
