Title: object control
Post by: archonforest on September 03, 2013, 01:47:13 AM
Hi guys,
Just learning TG and started to fool around with object. I made a small island and wanted to put some plants on it. I "planted" some population but they are all in the air :o ....I mean it looks funny but somehow I cannot put them on the ground ???
Can someone let me know where is that button, slider...etc that will make them land on the ground? Thx a lot.

Since I deleted it I made a new one and I think I figured out something. They are not flying now. But I will appreciate if you can take a look anyways as I can learn from what u say like yesterday :D

The only thing that I see..............your population is really tiny and really far apart for their size. They are populating like they should.  :)

Occasionally it happens that a population doesn't recognize the planet it's supposed to sit on. When you don't have a compute terrain for instance, or more of them (sitting idle). So check the terrain tab of the pop and give it it's planet. Nothing wrong with this file of yours though.
