Please let us place items in any possible angle

[Themarvin]

I am and so is is many others really tired of how you are having to place things inside houses.

It has been neglected for too long.

1. We would like a Z Axis for any object and virtually be able to place anything anywhere any height, without having to use other in game features to make it happen.

1a. you could had various toggle buttons if you need to place partitions accurate on walls and more to it.

2. Ability to link objects to objects making eg. artificial table top items and not.

3. the ability to float your character around in the air while building stuff so can see any possible angle without having to drop down all the time, from eg. partitions, when inside the placement mode.

What you're suggesting would be similar to the Forge mode editor of the Halo games. I would love that feature myself and would make decorating much funner and easier too.

Absolutely support. It's well-past time

uhm.... an ancient MMO like Star Wars Galaxies offered 100% movement within houses, and don't tell me that the Developers and map makers in FFXIV... goes around inside the editor doing a jump + place item to get it in a specific height.

What I am suggesting is 100% freedom to place things as you want as well as the ability to fly self around inside the house when in 'build mode'

All of that and I wish they would release more building block kind of items, such as partitions cut in half/diagonally, horizontal dance poles, etc.

That's how Halo's forge mode works too along with rotating, inverting and allowing to fuse things together to move sections without moving one by one and more, Halo's Forge editor is far superior than SW Galaxies and it's really user friendly too.

I definitely agree with adding an axis to allow items to be floated without using glitches. They are on record as saying they're fine with things being floated so I don't see why it couldn't just be added as a feature.

[NobleWinter]

What do you mean? I thought everyone enjoyed bouncing items one pixel at a time 30 feet in the air for 2 hours just to realize it's too far to the left so you have to start again.

My understanding is that Squenix is not too confident they can make such a feature work without breaking the existing houses, so they are hesitating to make improvements.
The current situation with "floating" is basically a bug... which shows that Squenix really doesn't know how these objects can relate to coordinates (who knows, we can't see their coding).
If some genius programmer suddenly joins Squenix things may change.

Don't tell me that they don't place obejcts themself, when they make areas, public house areas and more... it is all implented there.

I seriously doubt it is hard coding that bench there.. that chair there.... that table there in various areas.

Also when you could and can do these things with +20 year old MMO's then I really don't buy it that you can't do it today... SE has my critics at that point, and I don't buy it is supposed to be a challenge thing either.
