CanPlaceOnRoad

##Overview

The CanPlaceOnRoad property enables the associated object to be placed on roads. The [RoadGate door](RoadGate (Door)) is a good example.

##Syntax

This optional setting is used in materials.txt and must be within a BEGIN Object ... definition block. It can be used only once per definition block.

    Properties CanPlaceOnRoad

##Scripting

There is currently no way for scripts to determine if an object has this property.

data/scripts/:

• Object.Spawn() ignores all placement restrictions, so CanPlaceOnRoad property has no effect
• Object.GetMaterial() can be used to determine the material present at a given map location

##Notes

By default all objects are implicitly prohibited from being placed on roads.

This property only affects manual placement of objects by the player.
