Default A little help please

Hello to all

I am building a FMB mission. I need some tricks to place objects. The question is this:

In an airport I want to place lights parallel to the runway, the runways is not vertical or horizontal at all. If I do it one by one the line is not quite straight and the distance between each light is not equal.

How can I solve this?

Thank you very much.

I don't know, However, to raise objects right and the F4 button at the same time to raise objects. Move the mouse away or towards you to raise the object up or down.

One little trick I use is Test Runway 1. It is a concrete runway with a 'grid'.

Lay down the Test Runway and line up one edge where you want the lights. Use the edge of the Runway as well as the grid lines to space your lights (or campfires) to your liking. When you are done, just delete the Test Runway. See the screenshots below.

Default Thank you

Thank you very much for your trick, it really helps. But is it possible to put them automatically with the same spaces between them?

Yes with

v4.11.1

&

HSFX 6.1

Use the Snap feature in FMB and set the distance you require.
