Bug: Setting a grade with Scalextric Track
Posted: 24 Mar 2020, 00:56
I use RailModeller to design Scalextric digital/sport slot car layouts.
I want to design a bridge/flyover. I can set track pieces at ground level, and at (say) ground + 10 cm. But I can't create a grade/slope from one level to the other.
If I select a single straight track piece, and pick the menu item Element > Adjust Height > Create Grade to Track, then it shows the 'A' and "B' levels at the same end of the piece, which doesn't make sense. There's no way that I can see to make a slope on this piece:
Alternatively, if I want to make my grade/slope over more than once track piece, that fails in a different way (though my Software Engineer brain suggests these might be two different manifestations of the same bug):
