Circular Rooms

[Ashantai]

Is there any way currently to do a circular room or circles in general?

Is this something planned for the future?

If it's not possible to easily do a circular room this would be a big negative. Thinking of buying this but now not sure.

After reading up and playing around with it, you can't fo a 'proper' circle. Instead you can do a jagged circle where you 'step' the squares into a roughly circular shape.

It's not great though. Really, it's the only disappointing thing about the program honestly.

Thanks Ashantai, think will hold off then as the two things I want to most draw have circles, circular arcs and intersecting circles.

You can fake circular rooms if you're interested in the effort, but it IS effort, and quite a lot of it.

First, make a square room of the appropriate size. Then, stamp in circular corners as custom drawn objects, matching the textures of your chosen wall textures.

It works, kindof, but the shadows and textures are all baked instead of dynamic so it basically throws away most of the advantages of the program. I don't recommend it, but it can work if you need just the one circular room for some set piece and are willing to put in the effort for it.

Do you have a mod which does the custom circular corners?

This idea could be used to easily make floorplans with circular and circle-sectional constructions.
