 Play around with this a bit. If you make a sector then select it while in "sector" mode you can delete it and the empty space will create a pillar or whatever other shape. Play around with this a bit.

 Add some details. Again, go nuts.

-Light levels can be changed either numerically, by right clicking the sector in sector mode (S) and playing with the numbers there, or by going into the 3D view and holding CRTL while scrolling the mouse wheel. Every step is 8 unit of change. Light levels can be 0 - 256. All shadows have to be drawn manually in vanilla, and it's best to keep them fairly simple, though some fun details can be had.+Light levels can be changed either numerically, by right clicking the sector in sector mode (S) and playing with the numbers there, or by going into the 3D view and holding CRTL while scrolling the mouse wheel.

-The gist is this: Linedefs can tell Sectors to perform special actions. Lower, Raise, Act as doors, switches for doors/lifts. Lines and Sectors need the same tag. So if a line with tag "1" says "w1 open door stay" that will open a sector with tag "1" that has been lowered to the ground (as doors are in doom). It will open and stay open when you walk once (w1) over the line. If it raid "wr" that means "walk repeatable". S1 is "switch once" sr is "switch repeatable". G1 means gun once - a hitscan weapon will cause the action. Gr is "gun repeatable".\\ +The gist is this: Linedefs can tell Sectors to perform special actions.

 Simple as that. EZPZ. Of course there are tricks you can do with these things, but that's for another time. Simple as that. EZPZ. Of course there are tricks you can do with these things, but that's for another time.
