Size should be 64 voxels wide and 96 voxels high. If you wish to design larger doors, we suggest you adjust the sizes per 32 voxels. This way when you place the doors in Game Maker then they will fit nicely between terrain blocks.
Windows need to fit in gaps equal to the scale of terrain blocks. This means that their dimensions need to be multiples of 32 (e.g.: 64x96, 128x128, etc).
The pivot point must be placed at the base of the window in a way that allows it to snap into its intended position in the gap.
Windows can be made either in the modeler or in the animator where you can rig multiple models together to create your desired look.
