Default "Real" diagonal roofs?
Question for all the building gurus: is there a way to build a roof on a diagonal part of a house that looks "normal"? I'm working on a Y shaped house layout, and the roof over the two diagonal sections turns into a series of one-tile roof sections. It looks more like an accordian than a roof. Help?

Thanks in advance!

So far as I know of,
1 the custom roof by boolprop constrainfloorelevation false/true
2. OFB special roofs can make nicer roofs on diagonal walls.
3. custom object-based roofs. (fence-based, column-based, etc...)

If your house is a large Y, I suspect your nicest looking option will be to do Niol's first option of custom roofs.

Thanks for reading and answering!

I tried the boolPropConstrainFloorElevation method, but on a diagonal it ends up looking like a spiny back. Ah well. Maybe in the fourth expansion.
