Have you ever been forging a map in any Halo game (not exclusively Halo 4), found yourself at a point where you were finally aligning a precisely coordinated piece, and then instead of pressing the edit coordinates button, to lock it into an exact position, you accidentally hit the "Reset Orientation" button? If so, then I would really like your thoughts on this subject!
The reason I've decided to write up this thread is rather simple. Just yesterday I was working on one of my multiple co-forges with my friend, CANADIAN ECHO, and as I was aligning a difficult piece to exactly fill a precise hole within a closed environment, I hit the reset orientation button. This began a conversation between us, and I realized that I was not the only one accidentally triggering this sometimes annoying mechanism. We spoke for a while and both agreed that although it is not an extremely common error, it happens often enough for it to be a hindrance, especially since these mistakes tends to happen while aligning a difficult piece. Anyways, as the conversation continued, we discussed and learned that neither of us, at any point in our forging careers, have ever actually used the "Reset Orientation" button before. This conclusion made me decide to share our thoughts over here on HaloCustoms.
Therefore, my general question to any of you who are reading this is; "Have you actually ever used the "Reset Orientation" button, for it's actual purpose, while forging a map?"
Personally, if I need to reset a piece, I either delete the one I'm currently holding and quickly spawn in another, reset it manually using coordinates, or rather simply duplicate a similar piece in front of me and start anew. For that reason, as a forger, I see the "Reset Orientation" button simply as a slight obstacle in my forging. For me it isn't helpful, in fact, it can sometimes simply be frustrating. And for that reason, I think it should be omitted from Halo 5.
However, the reason I made this thread is because I want your opinion on the situation! So, if you have any thoughts on the subject, please share them with me. For all I know, most people could use this button effectively and I'm simply the oblivious one! Anyways, I look forward to any responses. Thank you for your time.
