Bike or Design: Improved Clone Tool and Predefined Shapes

Currently, it clones all of the selected points and connects them into a single polygon. But if you have two polygons selected, the clone tool will produce a single polygon, so you have to clone each ground polygon separately. It cannot easily clone a group of polygons.
I think it should clone multiple polygons without combining them. I would also like it to clone Portals, Updrafts, etc., and preserve the glue / slippery setting of the ground.

Predefined shapes in the Designer, such as an exact square, or a polygon with a specified number of sides, would also be nice. Particularly, I would like a tool that lets me type some text, then creates some ground in the shape of that text.

Kristopher you are phsycic! I was just about to post the exact same thing!

Cody

Another thing, using the freeform tool, you should be able to write something without it becoming a polygon. Also, It would be nice if you could create a thicker or thinner line.

Kristopher

Or are you psychic?

Spence

well i don't think a thicker or thinner line would be possible without making a polygon because they are essentially just divisions of the ground and air so to speak...

Kristopher

The whole level is saved as lines / polygons, which will not change, but the free-form drawing tool could be changed.

Ie:

(BTW, Paint just doesn't produce nice looking diagrams

)

Spence

well maybe if instead of connecting it strait from end to end, it went back and followed what you drew. like duplicating the first pic then connecting the ends. im not sure if that would work in all situations but...

Mr.pickle.

I like the text idea

Cody

What Kris drew is what I meant, turn a line into a polygon.
