If you open a JKL in a text editor and scroll down to the surfaces section, you will see the vertices of a surface listed like:

1,1 2,2 3,9 4,10 etc..

Why are there 2 numbers for each vertice?

one must be an ID to the world vertices list, but what is the other one?

In the Specs - JKL section of the Jedi Knight Editing Manual, it states:

World surfaces N
# Number of surfaces in the level

#num: mat: surfflags: faceflags: geo: light: tex: adjoin: extralight: nverts: vertices: intensities:
0: -1 0x0 0x0 0 3 1 0 0.00 4 16,-1 17,-1 20,-1 0,-1 0.159676 0.422598 0.127744 0.005013

"mat" is index of material in the list of materials. -1 means none.
"adjoin" is the index of adjoin in the list of adjoins. -1 means none.
"Nverts" is a number of vertices in this surface.

Then go indices of vertices as:

vertex,texture_vertex

That is, the second number is an index to the "World texture vertices" list.
