    @Texasfam04 By overlap do you mean that the slices don't exactly line up where the curves are sharper? That's not intentional - it's something the game engine (or the Unity engine) does, unfortunately. When I generate the XML the numbers are exact, but as soon as I open the XML file in the in-game editor the numbers get mangled a tiny bit, i.e., 0.03 will become 0.029995, which causes that scaled or ribbed effect.

    hey sled sorry if this is a bad place to ask a question about the building technique.... i noticed on some of the “ curved “ sections such as the front portion of craft the sections ill call “ slices “ overlap a small amount which almost gives a micro scaled look. is this purpose built or a building technique? if there is a better place to ask these questions let me know. thanks Sled

    Thanks, @Texasfam04. Yeah, I haven't used this style for a while until recently -- glad you noticed. Did you try out the high-agility turns?
