Building Walls (with Excavator)

Hey All,

I know it sounds silly but we are having some issues building walls that are straight. I am hoping for some advice/guidance on how you all build your walls? Such as:

* 1 person or 2 person job (one driving other building or does one person/you go back and forth between driver & operator)?

* Do you keep the Excavator North/South while building? (We had some success keeping the driver N/S and turning the operator E/W for angles)

* Do you go in first or third person when building?

* Do you use the free camera to try and get the right angles to view where the wall is going to go?

Bottom line, our walls always seem to go at a slight curve (not completely straight) or just come out looking like crap. Looking for any feedback! Youtube video would be AWESOME (just sayin).

I tend to put the excavator side on (Im the driver) and then a friend puts down the wall, I drive in a straight line up, he just adds another section. As long as I drive straight, the wall tends to be very straight.

Generally, third person, and use the cameras to assist.

Its difficult to get a perfectly straight wall, ours waiver slightly but nothing of great concern. I believe upgrading them allows the walls to be solid (no gaps)
