documentation will come with the final 4.26 release as usual

for now there's the livestream video and the content included in the plugin...

that speaks volumes really. in general for non-organic meshes with such straight lines you'll want your UVs to also be straight, or you're going to have...

[Chosker]

can you show a wireframe and UV layout?
