Thank you very much, and welcome to the community! :)

You're welcome, thanks for watching! :)

Yup. You can use difference nodes or intersection nodes to control where you want and don't want them. :)

I believe yes you can put PCG graphs inside other graphs, though I haven't personally found a use case for myself on that. And you can definitely spawn blueprints with Spawn Actor node instead of the Static Mesh Spawner. As for the house idea, you'd basically setup the graph for a house, and then just copy points to another set that spreads them. I can look into showing a setup like that in the future though. :)

Yup, it's an unfortunate bug that was introduced since 5.3.

in 5.4.2 it didn't work, but I fixed it by using a non-square spline

I did 5.2. I think I know what you're talking about since I ran into a similar thing. When plugging in the bounds for the surface sampler, double check that they are above the tables. Basically think of them as anything outside those boxes is removed. So if the boxes are under the table, then you get nothing since the rays stop at the table.

You're welcome :)

I believe there is already a tutorial on how to do both on youtube, but it's something that might come in the future. Trying to see if I can put my own spin on it, or add more info.

1 - Yes just specify on interior and use a closed loop, and you can use something like "intersection" to make sure it stays inside the spline if you end up moving points around later. 2 - I'm actually going to be making a setup for this for this Sunday's video. The ability to randomly rotate with increments, like 90 degrees. :)

Having it fully combined into one static mesh is the most optimized I think. Just cause you're saving on the instances and each new instance mesh type.

Thank you for your response!@@Procedural_Minds if the instances are Nanite does it mean its still optimized right? i set the spawned to static in the static mesh spawner

@@GH-zr4mb Yup, if you're going nanite then try to have basically everything nanite. Having a mix can hurt performance a bit, otherwise you're good. :)

Do you recommend Combining Meshes + Nanite sometimes? i think i had some nanite overdraw in one scene i was working on but the impact was Noticeable in vr@@Procedural_Minds

@@GH-zr4mb If you have a mix then nanite overdraw and some others go up. Try setting everything to nanite and the use Nanite 0 or 1 to toggle it and see if it's better for you.

The reason the bounding box matters when spawning them, is because that's how it detects whether or not they will intersect when spreading them out. You can make a massive bounding box around all of them, just means there's be that big of a gap between everything.

Did you set your spline in the blueprint to "closed loop"? I have a feeling that may be the problem. If it's not a closed loop then interior doesn't work.

@@Procedural_Minds I did, but don't worry, I'll give another try later, thank you for the attention :)

@@gaguto It's probably just some small setting somewhere that was missed. It usually is the smallest of things that make the biggest problems. Best of luck!

Hi, if using 5.3(.1) try ticking the Unbounded option of the Spline Sampler. Works here. Not needed in 5.2.

@@asharacrauwels That's great to know! I did it in 5.2 I believe so I probably didn't need it for my setup. Thanks for helping!

You'd need to cut out areas not on top. I haven't tested it but I believe using an intersection node you should be able to do it.

Could be several things I can think of right now: - Check your collision if you're not using complex. - Check your bounds for the spawning, it's possible you're culling the top of the table instead of the ones below with the intersection - Check the bounds on the spawning to make sure your bounds reach the top of the table when spawning All of the above are nodes already in the graph, they probably just need some numbers tweaked for your specific tables.

@@Procedural_Minds thanks! but i found the actual problem which was actually the pivot of the mesh, it seeems that the spawning is according the where the pivot is place once i edited the pivot to the bottom of my mesh they seems to be working fine. Thanks again !

@@yeohjoAwesome, glad you got it working!
