Title: Terrain editor wish: roads and railroads that are not clutter bound
Post by: Citabria on April 04, 2013, 07:57:14 PM
I wish our roads and railroad tracks were always visible like fields regardless of distance and water or beach proximity or field/strat proximity.

if this were changed I would have some wonderful possibilities for scenery and ground warfare with the use of roads and railroads passing over water etc.

the current roads and railroads disapear when near water, beach texture or field strat objectsthe same way clutter does.

While I like the idea, it isn't practical right now.  Very few would be able to take advantage of this. The reason it is the way it is now is for the lower quality computers (like mine, and many others).

Yeah.....kind of harsh when a 2 hour long lvt ride is spoiled by a train driving past.......on the water.

The railroads and roads should be posted on map!

I see now. Due to icepac's comment :). I misinterpreted the wish entirely.   Yes, I think we should have the ability to see roads/rail ways.  It should be an option to turn on/off. Like the vehicle spawns, field #'s/alts etc.

+1   :aok

P.S. That's what I get for reading a wish right after I woke up. ugh..  :o    :rofl

this is a Terrain editor map maker specific request.

let me phrase it another way:

I want roads and railroads to not be made invisible by water,beach, fields or factories.

that is all.

this has nothing to do with anything you guys replied about and it seems as you guys have never tried making a map... you have no idea what i am talking about but have to post because you like to read your own irrelevant posts.
