Help! Annoying glitch

Post by nikinor »

Okay, so, while I was building a new ship, I noticed something strange.
When I mirrored it, it wasn't completely symetrical.

Here's an example.

This is the topside, the first part I worked on.

Now, this is the bottom, the one I mirrored from the top.

Notice how the guns are in different positions. However, the statistics are the same.

These are both of their statistics. They are exactly how they are supposed to be.

However, the top one is off of the line that the bottom one crosses.
Please help!

What's worse? It's also happening to every other weapon on the ship. However, sections are not effected.
It's very, very noticeable.

The section itself isn't properly centered?

I checked several times. All sections are properly centered.

It's just a problem with Shipmaker that has always existed and will always exist. You can sort of work around it by setting the width size to -1, but otherwise, you'll have to live with it, or manually nudge the weapon so it matches the one on the other side.

And Doogie meant that the weapon sprite itself might not be centered properly, in the .png it's in. Shipmaker can be very finnicky about shit like that.

I'll try doing that.

Thanks for the help.
