: Ok this looks like it works in JED, but I want to see if this is something that will screw up the level in the end. Ok I was trying to make a platform along the top part of a wall like a platform. What I did was cleaved the shape into the side wall surface of the inside of my building, then extruded that, which extruded towards the outside of my building. I then pulled the vertices back inside the building and streched them enough to make the walkway. Now is that something that is ok to do or will it screw something up?
ACK!!!!! No sectors in sectors! That will prolly crash your level upon loading! And certainly upon sighting it! Heres how you do it. Go into side view and cleave horizintal twice, with the middle section being the height of your walkways thinkness, select the middle one, switch to above view, cleave down each side of where the walkway is supposed to be, then delete the middle. You now have a walkway! Select the surface that makes up the top of it and set surf flags to floor.
