I've spoken with Prime_2 about this in the past, and he pointed out that it could cause considerable problems if certain sectors are merged, e.g. speed pads. As a compromise, the latest build will find and select a set of identical sectors, which you can then merge manually fairly easily if desired (Ctrl+J, if memory serves). A small problem arises if you don't want to merge a particular set of sectors, as the algorithm for finding such sets will continue to select those ones you're not interested in. This may well be fixed at some point. For now, the option's in the Sectors menu.SSNTails said:

The two middle linedefs are crossed - however, DB will not tell you they are.

Idea. A FOF/FOFOF/ect. preview. Those setups are hard to comprehend (maybe the sonic sprite in the corner to act like a hight/width/length scale).
Flip Vertically appears to do the same exact thing as Flip Horizontally...
Flip Horizontally and Flip Vertically don't work if you've rotated a pasted selection already.

A bug in SRB2builder
Hi, Oogaland
Here is a bug that will close down doombuilder.
How to:
1) Select a linedef to split
2) Split it
3) Left click one of the linedef's that you just clicked.
BOOM!!
When I start SRB2builder up again, it loses track of how the window was shaped. EX it was in a corner and the window was small instead of Maximized. (How I have it). I also needed to click on the taskbar to put it up on screen because it would show the loading dialog and then have an item minimized on the taskbar.
Regards,
Sonict

You need to save it in the SRB2 Folder, and remove the spaces.

I hadn't planned on releasing a new build this soon, but Sonict's bug above is nasty. I actually fixed it a while ago, although I hadn't realised that the selection problems could lead to a crash. Anyway, here's what's new:
Same rules as usual: don't overwrite FOFPresets.cfg and ColourSchemes.cfg if you want to keep your preferences. Also, this is still an alpha, so turn autosave on and keep backups.
Not so much new, this time, considering how long it's been; as I mentioned earlier, I'm busy with other things at the moment. Also, most of what is new is self-explanatory, or will become obvious if you mess around with it. Convert to Stairs is somewhat limited, currently.
I realise that there are several reported bugs that haven't been fixed yet. I haven't forgotten them; I'm simply releasing this build as a fix for the aforementioned crash.
1-Up: As well as heeding the advice you've already received, make sure the testing options are set correctly in the Configuration dialogue box.
Flame: A revamp of the FOF editor is on my list of Things to Do, although I can't immediately think of a way to make it simpler without compromising its usefulness. Any suggestions on the matter would be appreciated. :)

I hadn't planned on releasing a new build this soon, but Sonict's bug above is nasty. I actually fixed it a while ago, although I hadn't realised that the selection problems could lead to a crash. Anyway, here's what's new:
Code:
+ Different colour for axes.
! Autosave routine ran even if map not changed.
+ Copy/paste textures and flats on FOFs in 3D mode.
! Selections behaved incorrectly after splitting linedefs.
+ WA-esque 'convert sector to stairs' option, with support for incrementing
heights elliptically.
+ Defaults can be changed from the Map Options dialogue.
+ Facility to insert FOF in 3D mode without invoking the dialogue.
+ Shortcut keys for FOF quick-insert and stair conversion.
+ Made identical-sector-finding a little more useful: repeating (eventually)
finds a different set.
+ Switch Map option.
+ Circles are drawn around NiGHTS axes. Turn on 'Outline all Things in Things
Mode' to see them. It makes things look a little messy, though.
+ A little more work on Convert to Stairs.
+ Multi-key search in the texture browser.
! Fixed some Convert to Stairs weirdness.Same rules as usual: don't overwrite FOFPresets.cfg and ColourSchemes.cfg if you want to keep your preferences. Also, this is still an alpha, so turn autosave on and keep backups.
