I have a few questions I need to ask. First off, when I test my level and break a peice of glass, most of the shards are purple. How do I fix that? Second, hoe can I make the probe droid debris appear in the level, like archihtecture. I tried the arcitechture flag, but that didnt work. Another problem I had was when I gobbed my level to send to a friend, none of the civilians showed up. I'm sure theres a simple solution for that one, but I cant seem to get it. Last, if there were a bunch of doors, would c/s cogs be better than regular door cogs, or would lag throw them off too often?

c/s cogs are better in multiplayer, yes. But you can't use enemies or civilians in multiplayer levels!

Civilians like the ones in Ceasars Palace. That was a multiplayer level, and it had those people in it at the desks and such. Or the people that were in Barons Hed. I know it can be done, but i need to know how.

1. Create a new template for the probe droid debris with a different parent template ( like structure).

2. AIs (civilians and enemies) are not intended for use in mp levels. You have to put them in with a generator cog like 00_generator.cog. Depending on the application, you might need to use the ai sych cogs available here at Massassi. If you don't use them the AIs could be doing one thing on the hosts computer and something else (including being dead or alive or in different places) on the clients computers. The downside is that the ai sych cog can cause lag problems.

Oh, the glass shards thing there is some dispute over. Some say it is a cmp problem, other say it is the mat on the 3do of the glass shard is missing. If you take a glass mat and rename it to the mat the 3do calls for, it seems to fix the problem.
