That's actually pretty good idea. Let me check... But yeah. This is the general interface. However it is recomended to use DSV attachments.
https://github.com/dvdvideo1234/TrackAssemblyTool/wiki/Database-extension

Basically you need to create a DB ( portal2_trackassembly_pieces.txt ) and add the prefix ( portal2_ ) to the DSV list ( trackasmlib_dsv.txt )

Here are some examples ( Test's track pack ) :
https://github.com/dvdvideo1234/TrackAssemblyTool/blob/master/data/trackassembly/dsv/Test_s_track_packTRACKASSEMBLY_PIECES.txt
https://github.com/dvdvideo1234/TrackAssemblyTool/blob/master/data/trackassembly/set/trackasmlib_dsv.txt

You can aslo make a script that syncs portal 2 and ship it as a searate addon, just like how Ron, , SligWolf and Grocel did :P

like, find these offsets in them to get them to work

actually im deciding to do it myself and i found what i assume are origin offsets?
PIECES:Record({"models/props_bts/clear_tube_straight.mdl", "#", "#", 2, "", "0.008,0.004,-63.897", " 90,180,180"})
how could i modify these to fit the portal 2 vactubes

on god add portal 2 vactubes

The "Modular dundeons" addon support has been added!

In the GUI there is an option called "Pieces count"
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/dvdvideo1234/TrackAssemblyTool/master/data/trackassembly/tools/pictures/screenshot.jpg

This value is mapped to the convar "trackassembly_stackcnt" and it default value is 5. U can to click press Mouse 3 ( mouse scroll wheel ) to set the parameter ti its devault value

@ [Sk$Bh]Trick or treat KID!
How you do you change the the stack value?

@The Skeleton In Your Closet 10 hours ago 

Em. Just do not hold SHIFT while creating a track or just change the "stack count" value to about 10 or so. TA is designed so it will not crash the game. It uses task lists per plater. Every task fraction is executed for every player per tick. This is done so it will not hold the think routine and stack 40 tracks in a single frame.

Is there any way to make it so I doesn't place like 20 tracks at once and almost crash my game when I'm trying to put just one?

Hooray!

The DEV branch has been uploaded to the workshop

@Average Genestealer 5 hours ago

1. Yep it is public. You can git clone it
2. Good idea.. but it will be after I publish DEV

https://gtm.steamproxy.vip/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3302818415&searchtext=dungeon Could you make this compatible?

Is the dev branch public?

@Average Genestealer 10 hours ago

Only in the dev branch for now. I will have to push the release in the upcoming days

https://gtm.steamproxy.vip/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2233731395 Is this mod compatible with this?

@JoelCrafter43 12 hours ago

Maybe the feature us not enabled. Try "trackassembly_enradmenu 1" in the console and press the mpuse scroll. Utilities missing.. Did you do trick or treat 😆

I also don't have any track tool page in the utility menu

I can't seem to open the radial menu for some reason, and it's really confusing me. Is there something bound to mouse3 in default gmod that it uses and I unbound at some point?

@Stonklat 17 hours ago

Hi. This is managed by default by the radial menu. Click the mouse scroll MOUSE3 and the radial menu will be drawn. It resembles the Crysis one. Move the mouse in a circles until you select a mode. Or you can simply go to the tool panel and click the drop down menu for working mode.Jist select one mode from the list

How do you open the mode change menu I can't find any info about that anywhere (the one where you can see SNAP, TURN etc.)

@Sliced bread 38 minutes ago 

Ahh.. Sorry this sounds correct then. Usually the origin ( the place where you snap to ) can be traced, but there are cases where it cannot, that's why the trace point is used when the origin is inaccessable. For example the rerailers Slig's "Rerailer"-s you have to snap the next piece origin in the air. So the trace point is populated and you can use small active radius to search for it ;)

The tracks I was using are Shinji85's rail pack. I was just fiddling around with it trying to get it to work. I'm pretty sure the active radius is the only thing I changed. Then I used the tool gun and the peices would snap together when I hovered the crosshair of the toolgun over an existing peice.

@ Sliced bread 3 hours ago

Wait that does not sound right. What model are you tracing and and also using ( holding )...

I finally figured out that all you have to is set the active radius above zero for the peices to snap

@Roy Gribbleston 13 hours ago

hey do you know how to invert the tracks?

Hey, i really like this addon! and i have a prop pack that may need it! its this. https://gtm.steamproxy.vip/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2233731395

how do i rotate? i can only make right turns using modular roads

@awghost25 25 Sep @ 12:46am 

I am currenly updating the internal data handling and library optimzations. This must not affect how you use the tool. For the spanish translation the only thing that needs to be done is to translate the properties file. Do you volunteer to do that ?
https://github.com/dvdvideo1234/TrackAssemblyTool/tree/master/resource/localization

You will also be tagged in the translation page:
https://github.com/dvdvideo1234/TrackAssemblyTool/wiki/Translations

can i ask a translate to spanish or maybye a new video explaning how use the mod properly? i know u are updating this so why not a new video? pls

@ClientNicki 15 minutes ago

Yeah. I can add any model I want. Got a request?

You better request a whole model category instead of a single prop

Can we add another prop?

Thank you very much!

Thank you ! Fixed!

@[Sk$Bh]Trick or treat KID! I use addon "Shinji85's Rails Train Pack".

The console says the following:
[Track Assembly Tool] lua/trackassembly/trackasmlib.lua:4507: attempt to index global 'vPos' (a nil value)

@TUBORG 26 Aug @ 5:40pm 

1. Что это за ошибка Lua? Какой переключатель рельсов вы создаете?

2. Ето есть консольная переменная "trackassembly_bnderrmod". У есть стойностами "OFF", "LOG", "HINT", "GENERIC", "ERROR". Все, кроме одной даст ошибкой кроме "OFF", каторь выключить прoверками для позиция куска будеть извън пределами карте. Тогда вам будет разрешено создавать предметы где угодно.

Вы можете найти эту опцию в панели параметров администратора "утилиты". Для изменения этой настройки есть выпадающее меню

Или просто используйте консоль:

> trackassembly_bnderrmod "LOG"
