    When I saw the double version of that symbol in the map above, all I could think of was this scene from Young Frankenstein:

    Yep, it's a door. Thanks for pointing that out, I will post a key for the symbols shortly.

    LOL, now I have to get a better symbol for the doors (either that or add the Knob), but maybe not, I usually don't print the doors on the maps I show the players. I actually only print the items the players cannot easily move (pillars, walls, large bookstands), with the exception of the staircases. I have the players search the rooms for them

    If anyone plays the same way, and wants the GIMP source file, feel free to ask.

    I typically use a quarter-circle section for my doors and break the line of the wall, so it's very clear where both the hinge and the hole are. I've got players who like to use doors as tactical tools, though, so it behooves me to make sure they're well-defined ahead of time.
