I don't understand your meaning for the progressbar. Stairs up or down
should be drawn in place of walls. That is how up or down exits should
be shown.

Your code generates mazes with exits for N, S, E, W. It is missing the
exits for NE, NW, SE, SW as we as each of these exits can go up or
down a level. This is defined as a 2D array with a level (up, level,
down) for each element defining stairs (or not).

I have reported the errors in compiling GLScene to the forum as well
as my instructions on the field variable which has it's definition
missing 2 x "identifier idents no member" fatal errors. This should be
a simply matter of defining this.
