Re: Rails overlays
Yes, that is strange. I just tried a set myself just to see what it looked like while rails were being placed on the map, for a possible clue.
Maybe it's a safety feature? No sharp turns to prevent derailments? Just kidding. Of course it's a bug that needs to be fixed.

Re: Rails overlays
It looks fine in the editor, by the way. For want of technical expertise and terms, I'd say the game is lacking a graphical interpretation of this instance of hex and feature combination. That is, straight railroad and gentle-curving railroad are picked up by the program and represented in the display while sharp railroad turn is undefined.
Heh, stop laughing.

Re: Rails overlays
You can find the graphics here :
Here you can see the roads :
Here you can see the rails :
You can see the difference !
I think this is the only bug with the map editor. Creating a map is easy and fast with experience but this bug is irritating

Re: Rails overlays
Thanks. So what I said above wasn't so dumb after all. With great difficulty, I am learning a few things here.

Re: Rails overlays
Any hope to correct this bug in the next update ?
This bug can be found in certain official maps, for example 8-USMC-SAIPAN-TINIAN :

I'm hoping to give the terrain textures a higher resolution update at some point, and update all the road & road textures while I'm at it...

Re: Rails overlays
This bug was not solved in spite of the last patch yet (version 5.2.1)
Re: Rails overlays
fingers crossed for next "patch".
though some of us have noted little things like this have not been fixed since the original release of OOB.
I think someone over there is easily distracted.
