The Internet turned me into an American a long time ago. 😥 That 'sausage' is like the 'understrung' bridges i used to make in Bridge Constructor 3D. They don't work so well in Poly Bridge 2, which is just as well because they're way OP in BC3D. An 'understrung' bridge is a flat wooden roadway with steel cable in an arc underneath, or as near as you can ge to an arc when you can't disable snap to grid. Connecting the two are short wooden verticals. That's the whole thing. They're amazing because they spread the load as near perfectly as the grid snap allows, but they must be terrifying to drive on! XD They're right on the line between "bridge" and "not a bridge".

As a future idea, may I suggest doing a challenge where you have to make a one-time use bridge for different levels.

[@badmood88]

The route vs. root pronunciation is interesting. Because its pronunciation is splitting based on context when it came from one word. Root 52. But you wouldn't call the tool a rooter, it's a router. And routing wires through walls not rooting. But US is a big place probably someone says it that way. They probably wouldn't even be considered wrong. Language changes. Duck tape is a legitimate name for gray tape, even though it was originally duct tape ment for sealing aluminum heating ducts.
