Alrighdy, the LinearExtrusion class works as intended for creating walls! The next step is creating openings. Will this upcoming HolePuncher class support any kind of shape Fabrice? I'm only interested in rectangular holes for doors and windows. And just out of curiosity, will I be able to punch out door openings? Since they are positioned at the bottom edge and actually are some sort of alcove.
Thanks for now.
