Can bridges be placed towards abbeys?
« on: February 16, 2023, 07:21:35 AM »
The general question is: can bridges be placed towards abbeys?

Specific case that triggered the doubt is the scenario below: can the tile indicated by the arrow be placed there, and then a curved bridge be placed on the tile above, towards the pre-existing abbey? Also the bridge on the right: could it be placed there?

No. Custom bridges work exactly like default ones so rules are the same. Also I asked about a default bridge position in my post.

They definitely are! Is the blueprint for the + bridge publicly available? I'd like to add it to my piece collection but I can't find it on Thingiverse

You can find the curved ones here:

The other were derived from the normal ones by applying boolean operations. You can find one version of the nomal bridge here:

I got one set from @Meepledrone and when playing with Bridges we still play also with enhanced bridges. And it's cool.

Problem is that usually you can't imagine best placement of it. But when you find it, it can be game changer.

For mere mortals who don’t know how to apply Boolean operations, some ready-to-print files would be helpful.

Agree. Maybe as remixes of the original object? Thingiverse allows that.

I prepared this set of STL files for my version of the bridges (I made the normal bridge closer to the original one and therefore the others based on it). A friend of mine tested some of them.

Wanna try them?
