I am building a new route in TC and I noticed in some cases the "Get Gradient" tool in Surveyor does not return correct value.
In the picture below I have two sets of splines on a two-directional line, connecting a road crossing and an industry enabled passenger station, separated by about 10 meters of track. According to Surveyor "Get Vertex Height" tool, both sets have vertex height of 7.0 m. So the track between these splines should be perfectly flat and gradient should be zero. But the "Get Gradient" tool shows gradient of 0.02%. The mini-map shows the same value. The "artificial" slope is negligible, but annoying and it may pinpoint a more serious flaw in the simulator design.
Did anybody else noticed a similar problem too?
