Hi, I am making a map with a first person view, and I was wondering how to raise doodads to make a sort of roof for buildings. I have tried page up/page down but it doesn't seem to work. PLEASE HELP!!!

CTRL + Page Up/Down, not just Page Up/Down

thx!... but how do press pg up/down on a mac laptop keyboard?

If your keyboard doesnt have that key, maybe macs have some kind of virtual keyboard like windows?

I have tried ctrl + fn + up and every other combination with shift and alt :banghead: Is there a manual way to do this? like, by clicking?

Please don't double post. Edit your last post if you need to update quickly.

Have you tried making the doodad into a unit, changing it to a flying unit but making its movement speed = 0 so it can't move, and adding the locust ability so it can't be selected?

I believe that should work. I remeber hearing that somewhere a while ago. Someone made a statue of a man out of rocks doing that. That should be able to create your roof.

Hope I've helped,

I'm confused; don't buildings already have roofs?
