[Discussion] Stashes (modelToWorld)

[Soul]

also the value "-0.20" leaves only the grass above surface and they are accesible

 

[Soul]

already have a hunch why they are fully submerged on slopes and its because of the modeltoworld and the 2.5 value going to see if making it spawn right under the player have a positive effect

however on slopes they are fully under the ground, does work nice on somewhat flat surface
my next step is adding a slope check in nicespot.sqf stashes cause i have it at false atm

0.1*_size, // slope gradient
Perhaps there, find the perfect number to allow them to be placed only on slopes where they remain visible.

Excellent work man, I had noticed _point was affecting the z pos as well, just hadn't figured out how to fix that, impressive!
Edit: Also i had changed mine to -.2 as well its perfect on flat ground, the way stashes should be.
Side note, during testing I put one at +2, those things are massive above ground! Why the hell would they make them like that? :O

Here's a screenshot if you'd like to use it.

to fix slopes set in create_stash
the 2.5 value to 0 so it spawn under the player and gets the correct z height from the player
and in fn_nicespot make the slope checks for small and medium stash to false;
that concludes this little hack

 

[Soul]

now only rests the clutter cutter it needs to go
underground stashes should not stick out the terrain in any way
but that's just me
