A Wall Generator is a generator creating entities on a line defined by a Shape.

Wall generators can be found in the Resource Browser in ArmaReforger > Prefabs > WEGenerators > Walls and are prefixed with WG_ for Wall Generator.

While a wall generator focuses on walls, it can actually generate any kind of entity defined in its properties (can be used to spawn elements regularly, while Prefab Generator may be more adapted for randomness e.g bush lines)


Requirements

  • A Shape (polyline, spline) defining the wall's's trajectory (see Vector Tool)
    • Said shape can be either a polyline or a spline, but the spline will be considered a polyline (and not consider its curves, only its points)
    • At least two points are required
  • A wall generator entity as a direct child to this shape.

Other

Allow pre-padding on first wall asset in each line segment

Exact Placement

Copy the polyline precisely while sacrificing wall assets contact

Start From The End

Start the wall from the other end of the polyline

Use X As Forward

Rotate 180

Rotate object 180° around the Yaw axis

Use For Very Small Objects

If you want to generate objects smaller than 10 centimetres

Debug

Draw developer debug

Snap To Terrain
