Tardis Interior spawning through the skybox of some complicated maps.[SOLVED]
When i spawn the Tardis on maps with complicated and alternative layouts such as Evocity and lots of other roleplaying maps the interior spawns either inside world objects or under/above the skybox. This makes the interior black and players are unable to walk around the interior. I'm using this mod on my new roleplaying server and would really like to know if theres any way of manually moving the interior either in game or using coordinates in the code. Thanks for reading and would really like some help on solving this thanks!:)

It's meant for bigger maps, but there might be a way to alter it.

The Rewrite has better handling for this. Does that work on the map you're using?

Yeah the rewrite works! but i prefer the old one at the moment as the new one lacks some important features:)

I have the same problem. I was thinking about a "compantibility mode" with will determine the max ceiling above the tardis and will spawn the interior there.

I will need the TARDIS on rp_bangclaw (if this helps).

self.interior.tardis=self
self.interior.owner=self.owner
self.interior:Spawn()
self.interior:Activate()
