FLUP pieces missing

[agnosologist 0]

Hello!

Not so long ago i've installed the NAM from this link

It's great but some FLUP pieces which seem to have to be there are missing (i'm mostly talking about the most basic rail-related ones,

such as Straight Perpendicular Road under Straight Rail).

I've got two pieces called "flexible underpass", one in Road menu, another in Public transport menu, i've scrolled through both of them, finding many exotic things like "diagonal road under diagonal rail", but no orthogonal road/rail underpass! can i somehow download them separately or i'm looking in wrong place or what?

Not sure if this will help, but remember to use the "Tab" & "Home" or "End" keys on your keyboard to cycle through the various puzzle pieces.

That's probably the problem.  There are so many puzzle pieces that they are often in Home<->End rights embedded in the TAB rings.  For rail underpasses, after you've tabbed to the set you want in the FLUP Tab set, use Home/End to move through the sub-ring.

 

From some of the vibes I am getting from the NAM Team, puzzle pieces are being denigrated.

Good advice. If you hover the puzzle piece in question over the network you're trying to place the FLUP piece over, you may notice that it changes direction. I think the puzzle piece description even notes that you have to use the Home/End keys to rotate through everything. It's not the most ideal, but is better than an individual button for everything.

 

About the denigration of puzzle pieces...FLUPs aren't one of them. The implementation may be reviewed, but it's unlikely that it will ever change substantially due to the specific application and specialized setup required to use them, much like avenue/turbo roundabouts and TuLEPs.

Thank you, guys, the Home/Tab thing helped.

Apparently the home/tab contains a whole new subset of pieces,

and I thought it simply rotates the piece...

The NAM is like English.  Full of homonyms, you have to know the context to get the real meaning.
