How long (in meters) can a dighole be?

Peter is correct.

Good one on me. Hard to believe I tested it in surveyor (to be sure) then promptly forgot the proper nomenclature between then and posting (2 minutes max).

Brain rot is obviously alive and well in front of my keyboard and apparently can dribble out of the end of my fingers.:hehe:

An invisible baseboard... I would think that might be possible. This is more or less a giant dig hole. You will need to include some kind of edge where the ground is cut, but the big dig hole will remove the baseboard parts you don't want. These assets basically block or remove the grey grid texture in some fashion, which makes the hole in the mesh. By applying this to larger areas, you now have the removed areas. Being really creative, these could probably be made into different shapes such as curved areas and even angles, though because the areas have to be masked at 90-degree angles, a triangle or curve might be impossible.

In the past I have made different shaped baseboard areas, like for a diorama using a very low area colored black. This effectively chopped the baseboard areas smaller, but the baseboard was still there. This was done way back when we were first discussing modelTrainz layouts about 5 years ago.

I hope my thoughts are helpful with this.

Hi John --

That I did not know, sir, and thanks for sharing --- I might have to experiment for the sake of trying this out in future times!

Kind buildable can go up and down. Just add the height adjust line to the config file.

height-adjust (tab) -20,20

Gives + and - 20 meter vertical adjustment.

Hi Ben --

Yep, I know, but I'm talking about other items from other creators, who haven't added that tag, especially old items of yesteryears!
