Hi All,
I'm in the process of building a route, and recently learned a very handy trick (that I can straighten splines using the "rail straightener" in the tracks submenu). Up until then, I was trying to give a curve about 3-5 seperate splines so that the curve looked more natural and fluid than jerky. Now that I can go back and delete those individual spline points in a curve and make it the way I want, I was just wondering if this would help increase, decrease or have no overall affect on performance.
I also ask this because on some stretches of track that I've layed, they are quite long and sometimes I think they take a while to *load* when I'm zooming along them (so I was considering inserting spline points to help *spread the load* the computer spends in processing them).
Anyhow, I'm interested to know what everyone's thoughts are about this (as I'm getting somewhere near a point where I'll start to lay more splines such as citysplines or what not)
:wave:
