Re: Auto-joining tracks with multiples of a standard track

Customizing appearance of generic bumper/buffer stop

Hi Jan, it's nice to have a bumper/buffer option, but how is the position of it on the track determined? By experimentation, it seems to be located about 25% of the track section length from the end, which means the actual distance from the end depends on which track it is attached to. How about mak...
