> The main reason for having adjoined sectors is to be able to pass/see thru the directly adjoined surfaces. You can also make the adjoin translucent in one or both directions (and then texture with glass texture to make window).

I was just wondering if an entire level would be made of adjoins, or if there were places that should
be made as unadjoined translucent surfaces to pass through. I guess my question is:
Is a level supposed to be created entirely of adjoined sectors?
