Can we get some machicolations?
a couple updates ago you could have the iron bars set out to form something like them. Now you cannot. Can we get that feature back or get something to replace that function like the historical machicolations?

Do you mean having the Iron Bars lay flat by any chance?

You can still do this by holding "R" and selecting "Advanced Rotation" from the radial menu.

If this is not what you are talking about...please disregard this reply and accept my apologies :)

@OP: you could use Pillar 50, which is thin enough to let you shoot through and big enough to (probably) not fall off the edge. Another alternative is to use a Wedge block vertically.

Also there's still the old bar block where you place it at half height inside a full block instead of placing it on the edge. :-]

did not know about the advanced rotations I will be looking into that. as for the second one if the first doesn't work how I want I will try that out. I was hoping alternate solution ideas might come out so doing good so far.

I read your OP... and have no idea what you mean. Got any screen shots of what you are referring to by chance?

A "machicolation" is a very old term used in medieval structures.

It's that part of the castle where you basically leave a gap from where you can throw rocks down on your enemies. He needs enough space to throw things or shoot through I think, but bigger than an arrow slit.

Well then Iron bars and 50 pillars are it. I suppose it's not shocking you and karma already got the best possible solutions for this. I suppose you could use centred poles too. Though both other options are better for the intended purpose IMO.

Well, I hope OP will have the courtesy of showing us screenshots of his work when he's done. ;-]

I will also be showing screen shots of the crenelations and barbican I am adding on right now too. and yeah for an idea of what I am talking about get on youtube and watch some shadiversity reviews of game castles.
