Editor Problems
<div class="IPBDescription">for every problem you have with the editor</div>Feel free to use this thread for spark editor bugg reports or other issues you have with it :).
Hi so I just have a Problem myself with the spark editor atm and its killing me :S.
Since the last update im not able to set Probs in my own map anymore neither can a friend of mine and its not working in a new layout neither.
So i was wondering if anyone of you ever had that problem before and how i can fix it because i realy want to finish our map soon :).
Another thing is the Prop window closes itself when im trying to write a word with the letter m to find for example marine.
I even deleted the whole game and reinstalled it, still not working.
Help is much apriciated
thanks in advance
[PS: I didnt know where to ask that sort of question other then here if there is a place for that already please tell me :)]

I wouldn't touch and more important save my map at the moment just to be sure.
You could try an older build though, if you have a backup
Regarding the prop window that "bug" happens, because m is assigned to an editor command/shortcut.
It usally only happens to me in a new map window. Once I place a prop and go back to the prop window, I can type all letters without triggering binds.
Similar issue goes for entering location names. I think it works (better) when you move the window for the prop/entity options so it's not embedded into the editor window.
The other problem you describe is an old bug, though, and you've already got a reply on it.
Edit: I just noticed that the props get placed, but with the following scale: 1; 0; 0. So you can't really see it, but it's actually there.
So i guess im waiting for version 196 and use the time to review the map layout with pen and paper :)
Thank you again !
Was this issue introduced because the fixed the overview? lol
If you can place props you can use the editor just like before.
Yep, I'm getting that too.

Thanks ... now I know that it isn't my computer that causes that.

Sounds like the sort of thing that should go into <a href="http://www.unknownworlds.com/ns2/wiki" target="_blank">http://www.unknownworlds.com/ns2/wiki</a>
1) Copy how blender move/rotate/scale tool works, it's way better, and since it's the basic tools, they need to be well designed:
- Move shortcuts to be closer on keyboard (g,r,s)
- When you have something selected and you press g,r,s the thing start directly to move/rotate/scale. No need to point and click on the little axis.
- When you move/rotate/scale something pressing x,y or z constrain the movement in the given axis.
- When you move/rotate/scale something pressing middle mouse button constrain the movement in the closet axis.
- When you move/rotate/scale something typing a number move/rotate/scale by the number. E.g. double size a face : s 2.
- ...
Download blender and see how it's done : <a href="http://www.blender.org/" target="_blank">http://www.blender.org/</a>
2) When you create a new face orient it toward the camera.
here is a explanatory picture

Myabe would be nice, if there will be a option in the editor to switch between these two.
Do you have same problem?
