> Now before your answer my question, understand that I know how to merge one sector to another fine, in fact, if you build a room, then extract it, and want to merge the two together to form one, that works easily. Now, my question is, what did I do to get the message "Error: sectors are connected by more than one adjoin" when trying to merge.
> This is what I was trying to make
> Take a box, like the unamed one when you begin. Cleave a small box within the large one (so now your smaller box would appear as a column if you were in the game.) Now, I tried to merge all the sectors around that box so that you could walk around it, otherwise it would be like a great big wall in the middle of your sector- not like a column. You can merge any two of the walls, but after that, the other two will not merge and will display that message. I know for a fact Im making a mistake but I just cant seem to find it, any help would be appreciated.

I assume you used a sector cleave to make this ?
Did you try deleting the square sector, you don`t need it.If you want the column . Then the remaining walls only need to be adjoined if not already.
You can merge some of it but not all, no need to anyway. It will work just as well with 5 sectors as one, With merging you must becareful you are not constructing something that is non convex. Jk don`t like non convex shapes.
