    I am thinking of giving up on Trainz...

    Surveyor 2.0 is far better than Classic for manipulation of objects. It can be very precise. The yellow/green outline is useful, however the problem with it is that the border is too big (thick) in my opinion. A thinner border would be better.

    PLP, try making the canopies as splines. That way you can curve them and set the gradients. That's what I have done on my route. Hope this suggestion helps. John

    Installing and running Trainz at Linux, here Ubuntu 24.04 LTS noble

    I agree with John, paste the text in to wiki and keep that up to date. Forum is best for discussion not documentation. Besides, searching for anything on the forum is a nightmare. :)

    Gradient Problems
