tankable trees
« on: August 17, 2006, 09:31:00 AM »
Hi folks

The amazon floods regularly and so I thought I'd make a rainforest tree that is tankable.  in the ucs I included cSwimsOnly = 0, cSwims = 1 and cUnderwater = 1.  It all works as intended except that even after correct rotation in zoot or markhor, in one view, the tree does not stick out of a shallow tank, all of it remaining beneath the water.

Does anyone have any experience of this and if there's any cure?

many thanks

Dr Rick

postscript...  i've discovered that the display problem occurs only on first installation.  It goes away as soon as you rotate the zoo, and the trees display correctly sticking up out of the water.  the rotation fix has to be spot on though...

Wow...that's a neat find man.  I would have thought it would of required a new object to be created.  Well done!
