Very basic question about linedefs and sectors

EDIT: I found the solution -> CTRL + D I have seen many tutorial on youtube, but i haven't seen anyone using CTRL+D


@Moderator: Could you please delete this topic? I was too hasty with creating a thread for such a minor issue.




I am currently building my very first doom map ever. So far I managed to create some rooms with doors and teleports etc... I am using doom builder 2.

I am having issues drawing sectors that connect to other sectors.

I will try to explain the best I can.

Lets say I have a square room. I want to build a tunnel that connects to that square room. This means I have to draw a long rectangle that connects to that square.

My issue here is, I have to start drawing the rectangle outside the square, because if I right click on a linedef a menu will popup. I don't like this behaviour.

I want to be able to start drawing on a linedef. To me this is a more logical way of drawing.

Or another example:

I have a tunnel that contains stairs. I want to add 1 step. I cant add just another line because I cant click on the sides of the tunnel and create a line. I have to click in the middle and then go to each side. I end up with a vertex in the middle, so i move it to the side. So to draw 1 line I have to do 4 clicks. This should be possible in 2 clicks no ?

Am I making any sense, or should I make a youtube video to explain my problem?

whatever the case, it's nice to see someone starting out from the bare basics. it's great to see new mappers.

I've closed the thread rather than delete it. Who knows, maybe other people have had your problem.
