What are these that keep appearing in my route? (Pic attached)

[dimi_108]

These random holes keep appearing on a route i'm working on.
The route was originally made in TRS2006 but i'm using TS12 to update it etc.

Do they ever stop appearing? It's starting to get on my nerves now.

Thanks for the links Mick.

Damn. Is there any cure for these sink holes? Or do you have to scrap the layout?

What I do is look up every sinkhole, go to Topology, set the radius to minimum and then use the "Plateau" function clicking adjacent to the hole to get it on the same level again.

The one in your screenie doesnt show to deep. The "fun" starts when you get them at 100m+ height.

My solution is to use Get Height on a surrounding area, then use Use Height on the offending location.

Something that might be worth trying is to create a new one-board route in TS12, and then merge the old route into it, and then save under a new name. Close and then re-open, and see if replace textures still causes the problem.
