Ok, i'm REALLY ticked now. I tried the extend floor/ceiling and all it managed was nothing or it screwed up the entire level :frown:

Hurm... Would this secret be the use of pitch black in Light Maps?

Extend floors/ceilings does not increase the size of the map. What you supposedly do (according to my experience) is select it, fill in the dialog box appropriately, and then click on a segment of floor or ceiling. The MASCOT editor then extends that peice of ground or ceiling (to the right I believe) in a random way, producing a rather nice-looking piece of FG tilework if you manage to do it correctly. Of course, I''ve only managed to do it correctly three times, the rest of the time it puts zigzags all throughout my map.

I think this could be one of the reasons Ben's ceilings and floors look so nice. Of course, he actually knew how to use this command

I rather suspect this should only be used when you first start a level. Many are the levels I have botched by trying to work out how to do it. The only thing I have managed successfully with this is straight floors which work when you want them to go to the right.

If however you are looking for a random pattern when you start to make the level "floor right" goes up right (generally) and "floor left" goes down right (mostly) and the degree of up and down is (or should be) the numbers you put in the boxes. "Ceiling right" goes down right, and "ceiling left" goes up right (or they should but occasionally they don't).

Well, since the level couldn't be made larger I just made a "continuation" of it. Another back up for the beta testers, sorry guys

That's OK - I've only just got back from France and I'm off again tomorrow on Business. I'm afraid I won't be fit to do anything until the end of next week at the earliest.
