Alright for my map I have figured out how to make gates and make them open and close at will. But that isnt the problem. The problem is I am using the pit doors and if I accidently place one in a wrong position then I can delete it. I have used the unit slecter mode, doded layer mode, terrain layer mode and wel everything. How do you delete these things without go ctrl + z?

Just click on the center of it once, don't drag or move the mouse and press delete.

Put many units around the spot where you put the door (the center of it). Select them all, delete, and you will also delete the door in the process. Or at least that's how in SCXE (Special Mode).

Is it possible you could open the map in another mode and delete it there?

If not, I offer 2 options:

1. Click to place another of the same type of door. Notice where the little green square is on the door. Now click that same area on the problem door and delete it.

2. Click to place another of the same type of door. Move this door directly over the door you want to delete. You'll know you're directly over the door when the little green square becomes a red square. Now, right click so you're no longer moving the door around with the mouse cursor. Then, left click the door and delete.

If all else fails hit ctrl + a (select everything), then deselect every other unit and hit the delete key. There must be something wrong if none of the other ways work.
