Baseboard manipulation

[frich12301]

Hi All

Recently purchased Trainz 2022PE, moving from Trainz 2019 std

Two questions if I may;
1} How does one rotate the entire baseboard grid along the “x” axis. I would rather view my layout standing alongside, not looking down like a map

2) Rather then have squared grid areas, can I delete 1/2 of a grid to form a 45 degree angle? This to mimic my real layout

Thanks for any help

Hi Frank,

You can't rotate baseboards themselves and you can't chop off corners to make 45's out of them. This has been on the wish lists since Trainz 1.0. To create a 45-degree slice, reduce the height of the baseboard in that part to something much lower. There are facia board splines that you can place around the edges to square them off and then texture the lowest parts to appear like a floor or use splines to cover that too.

You can rotate your camera view just the same by using your arrow keys, and zoom by using the scroll wheel. To move around you can right-click on the baseboard and inch along.
