Editing Skyscrapersim Building Creator Reloaded

Skyscrapersim Building Creator Reloaded is a building creator made by NothingCanStopMe357. It is a sucessor to Beno Building Creator after it closed in late 2020.

=== Tools ===

* Action buttons
** |+| and |-| buttons: used for changing floors
** Import buttons: used for copying another floor’s contents onto this floor.
** Clear button: used for clearing the entire floor so it is blank
** Finish button: This will take you to the screen to set your spawn point and then generate the building code.
** Paint button: will paint a object once a room, wall, or atrium is selected, using the texture set that would be appropriate for them. It can be changed by clicking on the floor/wall/window texture toggle switches.
** Delete button: will delete a object once a room, wall, or atrium is selected.

* Building set:

=== Glass Elevators ===

You can specify whether the elevators have a glass cab, glass doors, both of them, or neither of them. In the future I may streamline the creator to have glass depending on what side of the cab it’s on.

== Stairs/Escalator editor ==

* Stairs: mainly used for emergencies, can serve any range of floors.
* Escalators: can be placed on any floor, and it goes only to the floor above it. For example, if you want it to serve floors 5-6, place the escalator on floor 5.
