Advanced Ghost Merging Techniques

[Gunnergrunt]

This is a tutorial for when you only have a single type of item left on the object list. You want to ghost merge it, but you don't have a second object to complete the glitch.

A second tutorial for those pesky occasions when you need to merge an object more than halfway into another object of the same type. You can't just set it to not spawn because it will come back when you set the run time minimum to full during the ghost merge process.

This is a tutorial for a trick I call Counter Merging. It can be used when you need to ghost merge an object more than helfway under a map's natural geometry.

All of those tutorials will be very useful.

I already knew the second and had seen the third on youtube before. But thanks anyway, the first one is useful.

Could you fix the "dissapearing" glitch with ghostmerged objects by simply dummying them and then starting a new round? Or is the dummying process where the glitch originates from?

I have not once ran into this disappearing problem that everyone talks about so I don't know how fix it I suppose! You could always try and dummy it a second time to keep the glitch from happening

I've only had that happen with more people, and we had baaad lag. So I think it might be a problem with delay and the ghost merge effect.

How do you dummy by using an object that has already been placed. (I select objects as a human to dummy them currently)

[Coyote1023]

You need to press a and up on the D-pad at the same time. So pretty much become a human and grab the item at the same time. Once done right, you should be able to push it away with another object. It is just trial and error until it works.
