Wall Control Tool
A drafting compass button in the Wall Controls Foundry section opens Wall Control menu. It displays as a menu attached to the hotbar's position, and displays all tools included in the module. Selecting a tool hides the Wall Control menu, and displays a hint bar with keybindings, or wall-type carousel where applicable. Right click/Escape discards your current work with the tool, or undoes the last step. Wall Control menu can be closed by pressing the drafting compass button again, or X on the menu itself.
The Radial Menu
Hold the keybind (Default W) while in Wall Controls Foundry section to display the Radial Menu. It contains four categories (Toggles, Walling, Editing, Presets) just like the Wall Control menu, and is an alternate control scheme. All tools work exactly the same between the two menus.
Walling Tools

|---|---|
| Draw Walls | An automatic chain, segment by segment. Each segment can take its own wall type |
| Ellipse | Drag out an ellipse. Alt locks it to a circle shape |
| Rectangle | Drag out a rectangle. Alt locks it to a square shape |
| Quadratic Bézier | A curve with one control point |
| Cubic Bézier | A curve with two control points |
| Regular Polygon | An n-sided polygon. The wheel sets the sides, Ctrl snaps rotation to 15° |
| Arc | A circular arc with a centered handle to bend it |
| Spline | A curve through every point placed |
| Freehand | Draw walls by hand |

Wall Review
Six checks over every wall in the scene, listing the most common issues. Provides a way to find the faults and fix them easily.
| Check | Meaning |

| Zero-length walls | Both ends in the same place. The wall does nothing |
| Duplicate walls | Identical walls stacked on each other |
| Empty walls | Every sense set to None. The wall does nothing |
| Outside the map | Both ends off the map. |
| Wall gaps | Two loose ends close enough to look like they were meant to join |
| Loose ends | Ends joined to nothing. Potentially fine for standalone walls |
