So I looked at Magic and the Magic to RPM conversion, and that gives me some examples, but I don't quite follow the logic:
Wizard Eye: Lesser Control Matter (5) + Lesser Create Crossroads (6) + Lesser Create Matter (6) + Lesser Sense Crossroads (2) + Duration, 10 minutes (1) + Speed, 10 yds/second (4).*24 energy (24×1)
The calculation is perfectly clear. Create Matter is clearly for the eye itself, and Control Matter for moving it around.
However, I don't see what part Crossroads is playing here, because Crossroads seems to be all about gates and weak spots, from the description on p. 9 of Thaumatology: Ritual Path Magic. Can anyone explain a bit?
Thanks in advance.

Crossroads is basically creating a small gate you can see through in the area. And that's one way to do it.
Another way would be to use Path of Mind to link your senses to a specific area far away. That would be a Control Mind effect. Possibly a Greater effect.
