First of all I decided to add some roofing to some of the buildings in order to make them more varied. Rather than have all of them flat, I was able to add roofing by taking pieces of roofs and then rotating them in order to fit into the scene.
I then worked on the bar and added walls, ceiling, tables, bar area and used miniature barrels to represent drinks as no glasses were available in UDK.
However, I was unable to enter the bar as every time I went done the stairs the game froze. Luckily I found out from my lecturer having tried again and again to run it that I needed to reduce my 'Kill Z'. The 'Kill Z' is the level / Z axis at which your character should die as that point is where falling from that height would kill you. Therefore in order to get into the bar you had to go down stairs which went beyond the Z axis that stated death. Thus by lowering the line I was at last able to play in my environment.
