Ohai! Sharp here and I know that some of you have seen maps with a ramp coming out of the ground on Foundry. Some of you may wonder “How the hell did he do that?” Well im here to show you…

Well actually it is quite easy to do this. I will be showing you step by step on how to do this. The description is above the pictures.
1.Take a “stair” and place it where the bottom stair is right above the place you want the slope to start

2.Place another “stair” on the side of the other, completely even with the other Stair 1

3.Place a “double box” on the exposed side of Stair 1.

4.Place a “wall” against “the double box” (to make the “wall” straight) and the move it down to the last step of Stair 1.

5.Take two “sender nodes” and place them on top and on the bottom of the “wall”, as shown below.

6.Then place a “receiver node” on the side of the “wall”, also as shown below.

7.Then place two “doors”, upside down, into the “wall” about the same distance from the middle of the “wall”.

8.Grab the “wall”. If you need to take more precautions, as soon as you grab the “wall”, wait two seconds, and then save the map.

9.There you have it! A wall that has been merged as a ramp into the floor of foundry. This can also be done with any immoveable object (walls work best though).

With a bit of ingenuity (and a little interlocking), you can make great ramps. One such example is shown below, in my new map (Coming Soon!).

Simple, Eh?

And how good of an accuracy percentage would you give this? like how often does it go exactly where you want it to go, at the right angle?

This is really good sharp... I was wondering how to start a racetrack if ever I was to try... and goober the angle is the same angle as the stairs are...

Nice guide. I never thought of doing it that way.

Does this also work for double walls and boxes {double and single}. I think the boxes would need more than one merge but still, does it work?

I think you would just have to do it until the doors got to the same hieght as the stairs
