... connections even on running lines. Unless used with prototypical radii, they don't look good. There is actually a way now to create tangential connections, but it is so counter-intuitive that I have hardly ever dared to mention it. First use the make diamond-crossing at intersection function. Delete the unwanted half-diamond. Convert the other half-diamond to a turnout, and change its V-crossing to generic. Add a short length of approach track. Then make plain track on the external geometrical radius: 2_111454_080000000.png To adjust the radius, you customize the vee rail length. The new tangential function should be a bit faster than that. cheers, Martin. posted: 12 Aug 2019 17:02 from: Martin Wynne Rob Manchester wrote: That is assuming the beginner can find the menu and recognize the terminology Hi Rob, I've been thinking about that. Now that I've added the automatic trimming of the target template it is very similar in use to the make transition function, for creating links between existing templates. I think it ...
