 The snapping tool makes use of a unit for highlighting the nearest buildable cell, so it's a cpack instead of a script : [[https://knucklecracker.com/wiki/doku.php?id=cw4:cpack:docs:e58ef3f2-1468-42fa-ac84-c3561ddd9452|Kalli - SnappingTool]]

+===== Make Units Unselectable =====
+You can make friendly/enemy/all units (un)selectable and/or (un)destroyable with this script.
+The $ variables are now set so that friendly (=human) units are set unselectable and undestroyable, so that it's ready to use in a pac map. The variables are either 0 or 1.
+Enemy (=creeper) units are always undestroyable. Changing this setting with 4rpl does nothing, but also doesn't break anything.
+The script can be used from the console, or be added as a global script to a cpack. If used as a global script, then the script must run while paused. It will only apply to units that exist at map start.

+===== Set terrain higher than 20 =====
+A console script that lets you place terrain higher than 20. Details below.
+<hidden click here for source code>
+Notes about terrain higher than 20:\\
+  * There is a limit to how high terrain can be before it causes an overflow and crashes your game should the script try to make that terrain height. I have limited the script to a height of 100 to be safe, I have not tested when this crash occurs but I do know it does. Terrain higher than 100 gets excessive anyways.
+  * The game was not built to account for terrain higher than 20, this means Creeper will not render at the top of the terrain but at a height of 20 (the maximum terrain height) should Creeper be on terrain higher than 20.
+  * The build system does not detect terrain higher than 20, you have to point your mouse down as if it was a height of 20 in order to place units on that terrain. Obviously the best workaround to this is using top-down view.
+  * The game doesn't fully render terrain higher than 20 graphically. The cliffs of terrain higher than 20 will have stripes of black and after a height of 50, the final black stripe will continue to "infinity" height.
+  * The surfaces of various terrain higher than 20 will have **<fc #ff0000>BLINDING</fc>** bloom effects. If the surface isn't void-black, it is best you do not use that height as with bloom enabled, it **is** blinding. The effect is typically encountered when the terrain is at a height within a black stripe with the exception of height higher than 50.
+  * I recommend only using terrain higher than 20 for visual effect rather than gameplay due to Creeper not rendering at the surface of the terrain. Best to make it impossible for Creeper to reach such areas.

+===== Random X-Z position along the circumference of a circle =====
+<hidden click here for source code>
+This is a simple piece of trigonometry that is able to pick a random position along the circumference of a circle on the X-Z plain with a definable radius. This is useful in the event you wish to introduce circles into your 4RPL code's behavior.\\
+Uses [[4rpl:commands:randint|RandInt]] and [[4rpl:commands:randfloat|RandFloat]] to determine the angle on the unit circle where the position along the circumference is.\\
+Note: Floats will work for the radius.\\
