Question regarding "Scrolling According To Line Vector"

Question

I still can't wrap my head around how this line special works, even after reading the boom reference guide. Can someone dumb it down for me, please? Thanks!

It will scroll sectors with matching tag in the direction of the line. I think conversion rate is 1 unit per tic for every 32 units of line length, but I might be wrong.

If you face the line's front (The side with the notch on it in UDB), the start of the line is to the left.

I recommend downloading BOOMEDIT.wad from /idgames and seeing it in action or even editing the lines involved to see how they affect the scrolling direction and speed.

I did that and it didn't help, but I used the method VB said and it worked. Thank you for the response, though!
