About This File

Pathed by Redlotus; modelled by Fosterk, Decius, DuskTrooper, and N74704.

A fully-functioning network-enabled plop allows the connection of railroad tracks at the top of the ramp descending down to a connection to the subway network at the bottom is now a possibility! Trains visually descend into the 'pit' thanks to Redlotus' pathing for the lot. (thanks!) I happened to have stumbled upon the fact that referencing non-existant base textures in the game results in a 'see-through' effect, just what was needed for this lot and its LODs to work 100% correctly.

Note: Like the Maxis network transition (el-train-to-subway), this lot has a minor 'bug' that is visual only. When plopping items around the lot, sometimes the ground texture of SC4 will 'cut through' the lot. The easiest way to fix it is to go into sub-terranean view then quickly return to surface view. It should look normal now.

This is siple yet unimaginably useful. Can't believe Maxis was stupid enough to leave this out of vanilla SC4 RH. Good job!

It`s nice and seems to work but there`s always a small space between the to tracks, how can you fix this?.

Nevermind my last, just have to lay the tracks in a clear area and it connects fine, just have to fix the light problem now, i just have the blinking lights at the front, no interior side lights.

Wow, thank you! Rail are giving me a hard time, they are really sensitive to slopes, and if you want to make tunnels in urban areas, it's really hard!
