The most overlooked functions

Hold shift

If you click the rotate button, you will see this:

This allows you to turn props at an exact 90° angle!
This also lets you turn props in the 45° angle too.
Guess what? It can also turn props at a 180°, 270°, and 360° angle!

Uses for Hold shift

If you want to make a sign, like this, to be rotated;

and you want to make it a perfect 90° angle… This is what it looks like without Hold shift:

Uses for One space text blocks.

Making a channel brodcast a number/varible/property.
That’s all, but it’s important.

Why these are classifed as overlooked

Before you say “ThiS hAs BeEn mAde beForE”, look at this. Most of the other guides say they are overlooked, but these settings are in this guide are really helpful. I have never seen anyone say “Hold shift” before, so i’m calling it overlooked. Plus, I will add more. The main reason is because I have never seen anyone use these, besides Here_to_help in the guide I linked.

I will add more when I discover more.

You can add them yourself if you want. Check post 12 for the format.

another overlooked function: pressing h and v while moving props to snap them to the x and y axis respectively, so you don’t have props on different axes all the time

[gimmaster12345]

You can add that to the wiki if you want.

[Mythemi]

Neat how would I do that and oh and maybe the respawn device may be one of them Idk I dunno

[gimmaster12345]

@Mythemi

The respawn device is used in a lot of guides.

That’s why i’m not adding it: ^^^

You know, you coulda added it to this guide.
But thanks for the shift option, I didn’t know that existed!

I searched before… never saw that. Well, this one is more strict. It must be very helpful and 95% unknown.
