    Hello!

    Is it possible to make pre-defined track sections for TSC same like MSTS had many years ago?

    This feature can be effectively used for many complex objects like depot sheds, freight yards, detailed junctions so on. Also, this feature can be used to asseble complex objects with tracks attached, now we used to fine-tune them using export to 3d max feature.

    There's possible way I see there to make pre-laid tracks:

    1. Making a new kind of a track object blueprint with helper points defined via matrices and track assets linked to them. I think, this structure can be done the same way as Tracks.bin keeps the track network data, keeping the info how the one section was connected to another.

    2. If junction needed, there would be defined all track pieces with their length and radiuses, junction points (nodes), animated meshes for blades and point motor (with origin at junction node by default but with an ability to adjust in Editor), similar way like MSTS does.

    Thanks.

    Come on, even MSTS has well-detailed junctions now, as TSC doesn't.
