Making straight walls

Ok, I've noticed that a lot of people seem to have trouble lining up walls. This thread is to try and remedy this affliction.

1. Select the doodad you are going to use.
2. Angle it in the direction you want the wall to go.
3. With the doodad selected, press Ctrl+X
4. Press Ctrl+V
5. Find where you want the wall to start and place the object there.
6. WITHOUT moving your mouse, press Ctrl+V
7. Place object directly on top of the last object.
8. Repeat as desired for however long you want you wall.
9. When you have a sufficient amount, wether it be 5 or 55, click and drag your mouse over the stacked doodads.
10. Hold shift andclick on your stack of doodads. the count in the corner should be one less than it was previously.
11. Use the numberpad to navigate your wall.
12. Repeat steps 10-12 as needed.

Tips: Press ctrl+pg up to go over bumpy ground
Make sure the doodad you are using has a pathing map of a mushroom doodad or "none"
This gets easier with practice. ^_^


P.S. I'll post pics on how to do it a lil later. Need sleep now. :\
Also tell me what is hazy and needs revising please, I want this as accurate as possible.
