It's probably feasible to write code for a simple crossover and siding. But to curve an entire complex station throat or junction in one go would be a nightmare. However, it's not too difficult to create a new curved centre-line, and then one-by-one align the existing templates over the new line. There is more about that, and a video, in this topic: topic 349 The video uses manual alignment between the templates. It's possible to automate that using the snake onto peg function, but that needs each template to have its peg suitably positioned first. regards, Martin. |
