Hello everyone. Im not sure if this is in the right place but I wasnt sure where else it would fit. Anyway, I was wondering if it is possible to make the floating rocks (ie the Outland ones) walkable, in other words, to be able to put units on them, and make them bigger so cities can be built on them. I have tried the World Editor function of Make Walkable (or something like that) but it doesnt work properly and gets rid of the float animation. Can anyone help me with this?

Basically many users already asked this but this might work.

Press - Ctrl + Page Up to higher doodads, or units
Press - Ctrl + Page Down to lower doodads, or units

Use Invisible Platform (Bridges/Ramps) and then higher the invisible platform to your city. (Making the floating city Walkable)
Then Use Pathing Blockers to the edges/corners of the floating city so that units cannot go down.

And also use pathing blockers to the City Buildings (If you have) because they will fall if they go near it.

and I don't know more procedures to make this maybe other members know. but this works though it wastes alot of time.

Units on Floating Rocks

Go to destructibles --> Bridges and Ramps and create or edit one but change the model file to Rocks Floating and remove the pathing textures if you want to. That way you can put units on the floating rocking and the unit will float with it. I'm not sure how to get it working with buildings though.
