Placing buildings on steep terrain

[wim (Wim Dekeyser)]

Hi -

@kjanderson

I know you can MoveProjectEach but half the buildings are submerged into the terrain.

I suppose that, with a terrain like that, the buildings will either be submerged into the ground or will be floating in the air.

At any rate, Mitch has posted a script here that has a float/submerge option:

Buildings on topography

You can also try the following python script - it has the command-line option to either have the buildings stop at the first point they touch the surface, or be just embedded into the surface. It works with either mesh or surface volumes and can project onto either surfaces or meshes. There is currently a limitation with volumes that cross the outer edge, so the surface to project to should be larger than the volumes projecting onto it. ProjectVolumesToSrfs.py (5.2 KB) –Mitch
