Live Letter Has WARNED: Collision is Changing

[Ziantra]

I think my issue is we HAVE to glitch stuff because the housing items don't work properly. The biggest example the loft. What on earth point is a loft you can't place anything on without glitching it? A loft should be treated as the floor. Partitions-have to be tricked into accepting windows-because everyone wants to live in a dark hovel with no windows? What good is a wall covering that won't accept some wall items? Partitions are a foot thick with no way to cover the trim to the side and over the door so rectangular partition HAS to be floated up there unless you want your room to look stupid. People dont glitch stuff because they WANT to break the coding. It's labor intensive and tiring. If they're going to break it then really they should address the issues that make people HAVE to glitch items in order to customize their houses as intended.

Funny that some of the code is in there to make us LESS able to customize. Like, if you can preview an item, there is no reason to ever not allow it to be placed at all since it is already rendered there. You CAN preview a window on a partition, it renders it there and previews it there, why do I have to glitch it so it stays there? We should also be allowed to delete items from under items, such as a table under a plushy, maybe I just want to make my Stuffed Edda float by the entrance of the house, let me do that without having to glitch it there.

And how really hard would it be to have a 5th Icon on decoration for Z-Axis control? Make it an up, maybe up and down arrow, and allow it to do nothing else but to move an item up and down the Z-axis freely. Maybe the issue is that you can't create a grid on the Z-axis for Grid-Snapping? This has to be it, right? Because the game clearly remembers a Z-position once you somehow lock a height with a rotation, having it be a tool REALLY shouldn't be that difficult. This would allow us to sink parts of an item down the floor, like maybe I don't want my shelves to be that tall or maybe I like the upper bit of a stove, or maybe I'm playing Lalafell and don't like that all furniture is Midlander height. Or maybe I like the stanted windows but I don't feel like they should be height of the entire floor...

logged in after maintenance to find out my elevator glitch stopped working.. came searching on the forum to find this post.. why yoshi why

Before the patch I was able to climb my mini Heaven on High in my yard to get onto the roof of my house, and pretty quickly at that. It...was more of a challenge today. Had to go about it differently by jumping up from a different angle, hopping over to the fence, and then back on again to get to the top but I made it. But either way, they appeared to have messed with that a bit as well.

I logged in and my elevator made me zip up instead of having that stuck animate before going up, so its working better then ever, of course my house has the moogle roof.

Anyone else having issues with their staircase bookshelf failing at the staircase part? I put two of them side-by-side between partitions to make legit stairs, and prior to 5.5, they worked fine. Now, there is no smooth transition on the incline -- you have to jump to start running up them. On top of that, a third of the time, I literally slide back down the stairs; the other two-thirds are split between falling through the stairs completely, and getting lucky enough to successfully scale them as intended. Was the intention to have gimmicks like this no longer viable? I'm torn now, because the wooden steps don't fit my aesthetic.

How does this elevator glitch work?

[joshdavis271]

It involves this setup here, and when you sit on the stump then jump, the game decides to push you to the roof of the house instead of the ground. Surprised it has yet to be patched out.

Hahaha that's fantastic.
What a nifty glitch.

was this set up prior to the patch where item placement was changed? mine was against a shirogane castle wall but i can’t recreate it cuz it won’t let me place items as close against the walls as before like back in 4.0
