Title: Larger area coverage for map editing tools
Post by: Erniii on September 10, 2009, 10:38:52 pm
Hello,

Is it possible to make the the map editing tools cover a bigger area - like 3x3 or 5x5. This will be very useful for people often modifying their game landscape.

You mean the terraining tool? Like raise and lower land? If so that would help but the current alternative is to click and drag. But yeah it would be nice :)

That is exactly what I ment :)

Clicking and dragging not always works and is very annoying while raising/lowering large areas of land.

Any thoughts on his one?

Click+Ctrl and drag could open a rectangle to raise or lower the terrain.

IMHO also digging holes and other slope tools should have click+drag.  :::)

If you press your mouse-button and move your mouse, all tiles will get the same hight.

What I wanted to say. It's ok like it is (for me). I think simutrans needs other thinks more than that.

As I reported problems in different topic (here (http://forum.simutrans.com/index.php?topic=3057.0), here (http://forum.simutrans.com/index.php?topic=3053.msg30080#msg30080) ), slope tools in simutrans behave very differently from up/down tool.
