Easy Pit not working

Hello

I want to create an easy Pit using the Castle_pit objekt (Floor is at 1 ceiling is at 2)

When i place the pit at height 1 i can see the pit in game and it runs just fine.

Next part is creating the level below the pit. This works just fine too. But only! as long as i dont create a room below the pit.

As soon as i create an empty room below the pit and want to run the test i get the following.

[string "Arch.lua"]:0: undifined objekt: castle_ceiling_shaft_1111

Anyone know what causes that?

What is even more strange. i created pits before just fine..and it worked.

There is something with the shaft you are creating (not the pit itself)
Perhaps you have put the shaft to far up in the ceiling on the lever below?

Can you use the CTRL+F function to find the Shaft section and delete it, and try again ?

That is the odd thing about it.
It does not create a shaft on the section below.So there is nothing i could delete or change about a shaft.

And as i said, it worked fine before...when you put a pit on one level..you see a shaft on the level below but the shaft is not in the editor.

But this time i put the pit and get this error...but i did not do anything differently...or perhabs i did??

Thats the question i have...

Ah I am sorry. I thought you placed it.
This sounds very strange.

The game should auto generate a shaft on the level below which it does not do. And when it try to use the pit, it can't find the shaft it never created.
Could it be a bug perhaps?

Does this help, perhaps? Now that I'm past beer 7 I don't think I can help anymore. ~laughs~

Edit: just tried it in a new project..just creating 2 levels, first with a room and a pit and second level just a room below the pit. and same bug. i didnt even use the castle tiles this time just the standard dungeon tiles
