#Zoning - 3D Cursor not showing

Whenever I try to use the zone menu, put on -mapping, type "mom_zone_showmenu", press "Enable zone editing", and then nothing happens.

Any idea why?

Zoning until 0.10.0

Parts of the zoning UI are currently broken, as it relies on a deprecated UI system (VGUI). 0.10.0 will be overhauling how zoning works, so we don't want to make new UI until then, or spend time fixing the old stuff.

Zoning can still be done using console commands (in -mapping mode!), you can zone a start and end zone as follows:

mom_zone_edit 1

to enable zone editing, then looking at 1st point

mom_zone_mark

then repeat for the second point, then again for the height, this will create your start zone.

Then, repeat the process with mom_zone_mark again to create an end zone. Finally, use

mom_zone_generate 

to save the zones, then

mom_zone_edit 0

to exit zoning mode. Binding a key to mom_zone_mark can help speed this up.

Alternatively, if you want to keep using the old menu, you should be able to get by if you use mom_zone_edit 1 in console rather than pressing the “Edit zone” button, and mom_zone_usenewmethod 1 instead of the “Use point-based zone construction” checkbox. Guide can be found at https://docs.momentum-mod.org/guide/basic-zoning/

Also, mappers can use the zonmaker.exe tool in Momentum Mod/bin/win64 to generate .zon files from VMFs, just drag your VMF onto that program and it’ll convert it. For more info see #mapping pins!
