When laying track, would it be hard to make it so that it can remove the same shape track if the user wanted it to instead of clicking on bulldoze then the track shape then the track, a simple right click would be so helpfull. I know that at the moment it gets rid of error messages which is fine, i like that, but couldnt this idea also be incoroprated in the right mouse button??? Cheers Reuben NZ

It also scrolls the screen, don't forget that. I doubt this idea would work very well, sorry. However, if you have any recent-ish version of TTDPatch, you can just hit the key to the left of the "1", usually "~", to toggle the bulldozer while keeping the current track selected. The other hotkeys are very helpful too, usually I have one hand on the mouse and one near the hotkeys, that makes for very fast construction. -- Josef Drexler | http://publish.uwo.ca/~jdrexler/ ---------------------------------+---------------------------------------- Please help Conserve Gravity | Email address is *valid*.
