This question is NOT about the video, how would i fix a model thats hard surface, bad topology?

Hi Justin, the Build modifier follow the creation order of the poligons. You can see the poligon's order creation enabling in Preferences Interface -> Developer Extras After that in Overlays, with the object in edit mode enabled, you can enable indices and see the order of the faces. And then you can change the order of the faces with Sort elements how you show in the video. Thanks and happy New Year :)

A few days ago I was trying to use BUILD MODIFIER for a text object, but it started from the end and there didn't seem to be a way to sort a text object. I converted it to a curve object and TaDa it was built from the first letter to the end.

Interesting - I'll have to give this a look :)
