Hi Helgard, re: "So if I do this to the magnet, and make the shape of the polygon (New Group) exactly fit the shape of the boat, and parent the magnet to the boat, and the boat moves over the water, this zone will follow the boat and affect the new polygons coming under the boat?" Yes. .... Except, the depressed area will appear to "jump" as the polygons in the ground go from depressed to non depressed and vice versa.
re:"And excuse my ignorance, how do I make the depression negative. I want the water down, not up." Make yTran for the Magnet negative (-) instead of positive (+) and the "group" will be depressed (like Uncle Stuffit) instead of raised. - - - - - -
re:"(PS I now regret not doing your magnet tutotial, lol)" It's never too late, is it? - - - - - -
