When is it appropriate to use CSG?

[thehankinator]

I've had inconsistent results with prefabs containing CSG. Also as described here, putting a script on CSG means putting a blank script on all it's children if it's suppose to move. It's become clear that I am trying to use CSG in unintended ways.

 

What is the intended use for CSG?

Block out your level and triggers is what I think is the basic usage.

CSG is the best for:

- Wall, floor, ceiling, moving platforms, doors or anything blocks out player's navigation.

- Some primitive objects which we are too lazy to create in 3D application.

- You can apply, scale material on CSG Brushes without paying attention to UV Mapping.

- Make trigger box for player.
