MIXMAP, SCENERY and TERRAIN - For each of these areas, there is merely a folder containing tiles which hold information related to the relevant data, for that element of the route. Now because there is no central database containing key information of the route as a whole, this means more than one user can provide files for these areas at the same time. As long as no two users provide the same files, there will be no lost or over-writing of work.

Therefore it is quite possible, to mark out all the tiles your chosen route is going to occupy by recording all the numbers seen in the bottom left corner of the screen, and then dividing these tiles up between several people. These individuals can then go to their allocated section and start placing scenery, adding DEM data and texturing the terrain. This enables the large task of populating a route to be covered in a very short space of time depending on the size of team you have available.


So, it's a matter of recording the location coordinates of the change from the bottom of the world editor screen and comparing that to the individual files' "date modified" value to determine which files to save????

I put speed limit signs in all areas that needed them but one...
I just remembered I forgot to add one at that Dead Man's curve between Truckee and Sparks... !*hp*!
Actually that one section should be lowered down to 40-35.
The route is extensively changed between Colfax and just above Emigrant gap.

Small Patch for signalling and speeds tonight.
I also fixed a few trees and things around Auburn.
The new link is in first post.

If anyone wants the cloned route for further modification, let me know and I'll arrange for you to get a link for the whole route.
