I'm using subject assembly on both sides of a roadway. The datum surface for this assembly in my arrangement connects P4 on the right side to P12 on the left, which will not work for surfacing quantities. Shouldn't it connect P4 right to P2 right to P2 left to P4 left (and so forth)?
I've got bottom links set for the datum surface, also nonzero entries for all assembly surfacing depths.
What could it be?
Thanks,

Additional info to clarify problem: attached graphic showing datum surface connecting the dots incorrectly,
so cut quantity is blown
I will suggetst a couple of things to try...
First, set the corridor surface overhang correction to bottom links. This is done on the Surfaces tab of the Corridor Properties dialog.
I have not used the specific subassembly in a while, so I'm not sure if the overhang correction will work. If it doesn't, the second thing I would suggest is to add feature line data to the surface. Add the feature line codes that are assigned to the P2 and P4 points on that subassembly. If it does not have point codes at those location, try adding marked points to the assembly.
It would appear the problem stems from the subassembly L2 link code is "Overlay". Unless I'm missing something if the link code were set to "Overlay,Datum" the problem would be handled.
Some of the subassemblies have easy access to link codes, e.g. the generics, but the overlay ones don't appear to. I looked at the Autodesk instructions for modifying a .codes file but it's cryptic for the un-informed.
here's the solution previously posted by yee-fan
