What was fake with your square?
I’ve just build a nice terrace and filled it with picnic benches. Grid and squared pathes work like a charm.

So the way to go would be to use the "attach to grid" button, and then link every segment to each other?
Yes, I managed to do that, thank you. I was more concerned about the "shape" of my space, rather than its "texture".
Yes. And additionally, use the option to create sharp edges. I don’t remember how it is exactly called out of memory, but it is right by the grid option.
Ok, I'll play around this. Thanks for the hint!
You are welcome.
And I think (I haven’t tried this out so far, but saw the technique in youtube videos) you can even round the edges of your final big plaza, if you want to.
The technique would be to switch back to grid-less and round pathing again and then add a short path section at the edge - and delete it immediately afterwards.
The pathing system then rounds the edge a little bit.
This can be done for inner and outer edges.
However, this method it not necessarily reliable, as it is actually based on an unintended glitch that FDev left in due to it being so useful.

I greaat tutorial, as always fom Geeksim.
I wonder, though, why the tiling system I describe above never gets a mention.
Do people not like it because it creates only rectangular places? *)
In all aother regards, it does exactly what it's supposed to do: plaster large areas with pathes.
At least it should be mentioned in these totorials ...
*) In fact I do not know yet, how exactly they interact with "normal" pathes and whether the "edge trick" does work with them or not.

I use that a lot. So for me it's a good way to pave large plaza's.

Right. You can place them on the inner edge or outer edge. I just meant that they can't be placed in an open grassy area.
No I did not do anything special, I just put them there. Now the picnic tables are a different story. They have to be on paths.O yeah you can use paths to place them and delete the path afterwards. The benches lamps and bins stay in place.
Ok that makes sense
