Making a grand strategy game on the side, and I’m trying to make outlines for counties/providences and for other nations. Is there a way I can automatically make an outline, or would I have to manually make one?

Would it keep it outlined? If so, that’s likely what I would need.
Yup, It will stay outlined as long as you need!

Aight, appreciate it! I’ll be able to make this map then.
Wait, does it work when you group parts together?
I think so. But it will show all separate selection box, I think
Yes, it does. Try it out in studio
So I tried adding the script from the wiki, and I didn’t notice an outline appear and I joined the game and nothing showed up. I have no idea what I’m doing wrong.

Add an adornee. Click it, and select the part that you want to outline.
An adornee is a script, correct?
An adornee is the part/model that you want the SelectionBox to be assigned to.
So I need to create another part or it’s already there?
No, you can just set the adornee to whatever part/model you want it to be on. So if you set the adornee to a part in the workspace, the selectionbox will be assigned to that part.
Wait, what property is it on? I looked for it on all the properties and I couldn’t find it. I could only find multiple scripts that create it.
Adornee is a property of the SelectionBox

Ok so I finally added a selection box, but it didn’t follow the exact outline of the shape, likely because of the group I put it in. I think because of the group outline it created it doesn’t work. Any way to fix that, or do cylinders not work?

I am pretty sure that it cannot curve around meshes. You could take a look a SelectionSphere but I’m not sure how that works.
So I’ve made another piece of land with a cylinder and it appears with a sphere it barely shows up. It only works for the block part. I have the Archimedes plugin, so I’ll see if I could make my circles with that. But I appreciate all the help.

You can use Highlight. But that will make the line appead on PC only. Best to make a inverted texture mesh so that it shows line from the inside but not outside
