I’m not exactly sure why this wasn’t in Reach, but does anybody else think there should have been an option to snap multiple objects together and make them into one, so you can flip them and move them around all at once?
I don’t know if something similar like this is in H4, but it would make Forge a lot less frustrating with something like this.
Well there is the magnet feature in Halo 4 which is similar
There is something similar to that, actually. It’s called magnetism. It allows you to magnetise objects together to make them as even as possible, as well as a lockup feature where you can lock an object into place so you don’t accidentally pick it up and move it while forging.
Yeah an object grouping tool would be nice. I’d love to build a ship, put it in the water, and tilt it at a funny angle. Having a sinking ship map would be so cool… it would be even cooler if you could set the object so it tilts more and goes down at a slow steady pace until the end of the match. It would make for VERY interesting Slayer games.
Well a build your own vehicle would be nice too! You group it in forge. And you put boosters and you use the physics [:D]
Those guys think you want the magnetism system likely.

I know he was talking about a grouping system where you can carry multiple forge objects that are connected together instead of moving them individually. I and many others have been hoping for this feature since… probably since Halo 3 introduced Forge to Halo. I’m saying that the only thing 343i has revealed so far that is remotely similar to the grouping is the magnetism, which isn’t that similar, but it’s all we have so far.
It would be a very useful tool, plus if you can take the group of objects and copy it, it would a big time saver.

You know how you can set the physics of an object to normal and put a grav lift inside with physics set to normal and it sends the object flying into the sky? Imagine if you could group objects to form one big object, say, a spaceship, set that new individual grouped object’s physics settings to normal, place a grav lift inside, and… >:D
