Hello to all those who are reading. I am trying to create a road. but my issue is that Unreal’s engine automatically curves the splines. Is there a way to make the spline go in a straight line?
I have tried following the thread from: Turn Splines curves into straight Spline paths?. But I cant find the option to change from curve to linear lines.
Hey @anonymous_user_8e2cbdcc,
Currently there is no way to set splines to a straight path for landscape splines. The thread you have linked shows how to change properties in the spline component which can be added to blueprints. You can reduce the amount of curvature which is automatically generated in the landscape spline tool by unchecking “Use Auto Rotate Control Point” but in my experience that does not create useful meshes.
You could create your roads using a procedurally generated mesh and use that functionality within a blueprint. Check out this Epic Games tutorial which goes over populating a mesh along a spline.
I hope this information helps, and good luck!
