Title: How deep can we build underground way ?
Post by: z9999 on August 26, 2009, 08:46:20 am
Just a question.
I know officially slice mode supports water level and above, but is it difficult to support below water level ?

Current problem is this...
If I build a way on water level (-2), I can't select a tile under it.
Is this a limitation of this feature, and is it difficult to solve this ?
Thanks.

In principle ;), it should be possible to build below water level. However, the transformation mouse coordinates -> simutrans coordinates is somehow buggy when slice level is below groundwater level.

You can use the standard artificial slope tools.

So, you mean it is impossible to solve my problem ?
Okay, thank you. :)

No ! It (only) needs to be fixed ;)

Here is a patch, cannot submit - svn host seems to be down.

Thank you, it worked well.

Does your patch fully support till grundw****er-5, or it is still buggy ?
If it is stable, is it possible to change minimum level on display setting window to grundw****er-5 ?
In current version, minimum level on display setting is grundw****er.

It should work until grundw****er-10. No guarantees however.

Yes you are right, the display menu needs to be changed as well.
