Making half circles in dynamic lighting?!

How do we make perfect half circles in dynamic lighting as in curved walls or better yet an example would be from Curse of Strahd's circular stair wells. You can not do that with the free hand tool. I can not find anything online that covers this. Do you make a full circle and then delete half of it? If that is the case how do you delete parts of your dynamic lighting circle without deleting the whole circle? lol This is driving me crazy because I cannot figure out how it is done. Thank You for any help!

I use the Polygon tool for those. YES, it is a lot of work, but there is actually - as you noticed - no other way...

Hi Record of Chaos! In all honesty, I use the polygon tool. But I don't adhere rigorously to the edges of walls, preferring to let players see a little bit of what is blocking their vision. If they can see the wall on the image, they are highly unlikely to notice or care that the blocking "circle" is made of 6 or so line segments. That being said, since you have a Pro Account, you have access to scripts like Path Splitter, which allow you to draw a line and cut it at points of your choosing. You could draw a circle, split it and delete the parts you don't need.

Thank you TheMarkus1204, I as well have to do that and I like my stuff looking amazing for my players so it does take some time lol. I was hoping that there was a tool/technique to speed it up. Just made a new map for one of my TOA campaigns and there is quite a few curved passages. Have a great week! 

Awesome Keithcurtis, I will start my journey in search of the enchanted Path Splitter! Hopefully I can attune to it ha ha! Thank You so and enjoy your week!

For anyone else that wants to be able to make nice curved passage ways or circular rooms with entry points that look very sweet, Keithcurtis recommendation (the api pathsplitter) is the best thing I have learned when using Dynamic Lighting of recent!!!!! You will have to play with till you get use to its limits and benefits. I have a dungeon with 12 areas that look the same so I made one circular area and then copy n pasted it to the other parts of my map. If you go this route and want advice, message me and I will show you how to use it and the ways I sped it up!
