I have all of the tectonic plates drawn and extruded on a base map in formZ. I am moving the plates with animation. The problem arises when the plates interact with one another. I am struggling with forming the edges of the two objects into one form. Maybe my problem would be solved by simply creating new objects which form into pulsing mountain shapes at the location of potential earthquakes instead of trying to mesh two plates together. Another problem is what occurs in the rifts or the trenches as a result of the moving plates. I am not sure what could represent those areas.
