[patch] slope tools September 20, 2009, 12:34:01 pm This patch changes the raise and lower tools such that they work nicely with artificial slopes. That is, the corner of a tile will not be raised/lowered if it is already high/low enough. For example, you can now use the raise tool on tiles that are created with artificial slopes, and the raising will not create crazy slopes.This patch should somehow fix some of the bug reports:http://forum.simutrans.com/index.php?topic=3057.msg30078#msg30078http://forum.simutrans.com/index.php?topic=3053.msg30080#msg30080I did not touch the 'restore natural slope'.

Re: [patch] slope tools Reply #3 – September 20, 2009, 05:48:57 pm Thank you for testing!Quote from: z9999 – on September 20, 2009, 02:02:36 pmHow can I restore this slope ?Please don't worry. I could do it. Your picture slope2.png shows pretty much the essence of the patch: The lower/raise tools now raise/lower the upper (northwest) corner of the tile. In the picture the result should be a smooth surface.QuoteA problem on deep water.This problem should also happen without the patch. Also the depth of the underwater tiles is not changed. Ie raising land near very deep water keeps the very deep water and does not change the depth. Quote Selected

Ie the simutrans cursor does not follow the mouse cursor right. Quote Selected
Re: [patch] slope tools Reply #6 – September 22, 2009, 09:38:45 am Updated the patch: terraforming water tiles should now work correctly. Also the 'restore-natural-slope' is modified to give less buggy results. Quote Selected

Re: [patch] slope tools Reply #8 – September 23, 2009, 12:16:03 pm Patch update: if you press the control key while raising land, steeper mountains are created, see screenshot. I did not implement this for the lower tool. Also there are some graphical glitches that disappear after scrolling etc. Quote Selected
Re: [patch] slope tools Reply #9 – September 23, 2009, 01:03:35 pm nice! could you modify your patch to use (if present) a 2X slope? Quote Selected
