I like the whole rooftop idea but it would require a really good 3d skybox, no?

wasn’t my idea tbh . I use it at work for this kind of thing and it really speeds up the process and helps others see where your going with areas and stuff.

I’ve got used to it now but it keeps adding roofs automatically. How do I get it to stop doing this?

A vid-tut would be awesome.
It would make you my hero.
I love vid-tuts.

if you draw out your stuff in 2d view like on paper or somthing thats fine . You can scan your pictures and drop them directly into sketchup! I found this out by doing it on accident once. If you just drag an image from your desktop or somthing into the scene it auto puts it on a flat plane and then you can start extruding the picture as if it was your 3d layout. its very cool and fast , especially for sp layouts. I might make a video tutorial on the cool things you can do with it and how much it helps out.

Is it really worth getting?
Does it help you with level design due to the fact you are working in a 3d environment as opposed to a 2d paper sketch?
If it helps a good deal with level design i will definitely pick it up.
