method of drawing split level houses

[RMorrison]

Richard- How does this affect the height if you have floors above both the lower and middle floors? Doesn't it make the overall height on one set of floors too tall?

Nikki,

You just need to be careful with the ceiling heights at each individual upper room. The reason for using the higher ceiling is that there is usually a tall space at the interface of different levels in split-levels, and you can get flaky issues there if there are awkwardly stacked multiple open spaces. It's easy to make individual ceilings lower, either by lowering a ceiling manually or putting a floor above, but problems tend to occur (especially in automatic roof generation) when some rooms are higher than the default.
