trying to bridge a gap in layout in surveyor

[brakemen]

hello:

I'm in surveyor the layout I'm building i built a gap and want to put a bridge over the gap to connect the other side. I can lay the bridge on one side but to expand the bridge to connect the other side is impossible. one side is connected to the layout the the gap with water and the other side I can move the bridge from left and right and expand to make longer. but to go up or down in heigth I cannot.

anothr way to tell this is I have a layout a gap with a stream want to bridge the gap in the layout. the embankments are uneven its about 2 meters so its not even from one point to another so my problem is I need to move the bridge vertically to match the other end how would I do that.

Hi Brakeman. I'm not sure about Trainz2006, but in Trainz2009, if you expand the "Advanced" menu at the bottom of the track pallet, there is a button all the way to the left of the top row. Click that and then click on the spline point at the end of the bridge, hold the left mouse button down and you ought to be able to change the height of that spline independent of the one at the opposite end. Sometimes you have to try a couple times before you hit the spot on the spline circle that will do it. If it isn't working change the angle of your view and maybe pull back a little. A vertical yellow arrow will appear between the original base spline point and the new position. Again, this is based on my experience with 2009, so I am not sure what tools you have in 2006 or where they are. But I hope this helps.

hello :

I got the bridge connected to the other side, yeah I forgot to check in track section under advance,.


I have about 600 pieces of rolling stock not including engines and about 45 industries what I like to do is put all the rolling ctock and the 45 industries into the layout. right not now I'm not successfull I can get up to 500 rolling stock and with no industries try to figure out a comprimise so it will run. shoot, I do not know how many pieces of rolling stock and industries will take on a layout for trs06 will take and still run smoothly. but I'm thinking
