Stair Guide for Noobs
By Diplopanda
There a couple ways that one might want to use when building custom stairs (which you’ll have to do for certain circumstances if that’s what you wish).
[Disclaimer!] The first way is easier than the second way, but mind you both ways can be fiddly and take patience.
- The usage of platforms. Using the buildings that are lowered to the desired (probably minimum height and raised up if that’s what you want). Using multiple of these (two stacked directly on top of each other to get rid of the merlon or railing effect) you can adjust each on directly to try and shape your desired steps.
The second way is definitely more soul tearing and harder. This takes much more patience and fiddling to get the desired look. Also may take more from your computer!
- This method was originally introduced by Pew, and is done by using the wall tool. By cutting the desired stair length into 2-3 brick wide blocks you can get a flat top surface and adjusting each height and positioning to hand craft your own steps.
- For this method I’d suggest sticking with flat rectangular stairs while still trying to get the gist of it before trying a curved staircase, and also try recolouring the wall before cutting them into smaller chunks to get that flat look. (This saves you time in the long run).
