Smooth Road and Rail Curves
I have played Transport Tycoon (Albeit on tablet) and, after playing OpenTTD, I noticed TT had smooth curves for roads and railways, as well as S-Turns. I would love to see these in OpenTTD, but I know this would be a major job. Some NewGRFs have objects that have graphics that cover tiles other than those it was placed on (eg. The median third lane tile from Dutch Road Furniture). Could eyecandy curves that 'hide' abrupt turns in road or track be possible, and be placed alongside as an object?

I think it could do that, but it would only hide them, vehicles would still follow the real tracks/roads, which will look strange.Doenitz wrote:I have played Transport Tycoon (Albeit on tablet) and, after playing OpenTTD, I noticed TT had smooth curves for roads and railways, as well as S-Turns.

I'm all for eye candy objects but some stuff really needs to be done properly or not at all

Open the Landscape toolbar, then access the Objects menu button (looks like a tower).Roarsbaby wrote:Hi,
