Thank you, very good tutorial. 👍

[@MADHIKER777]

Thank you for the clearest videos of how to operate Trainz!

[@bobfuller]

Thank-you for creating these tutorials. The best ones I have seen.

[@ozsimflyer]

Been enjoying your Trainz tutorial series. Is there a way of adding a new baseboard with a higher or lower base level without painting the whole board with the new height? Thanks.

[@Sharadise]

No, but you can use the copy/paste tool with terrain height enabled to quickly copy a large elevated area form an already existing baseboard, and then paste it all over the lower new baseboard.

@@Sharadise thanks for that, I’ll give it a try. Getting back to Trainz for the first time in 5 years. Just retired so am testing my meager capabilities 👍

[@joshthetrainfan]

There's a problem; whenever I try to use height down, there's just unremovable water and it can't be moved or deleted. How do I get rid of this water.

[@Sharadise]

I already replied to you about this on tutorial #1. :)

[@joshthetrainfan]

@@Sharadise sorry thanks

[@hokanh579]

Soo, we can't actually get a heightmap from a real world map then? We must recreate it by hand in game first?

[@Sharadise]

There are third-party ways of getting a heightmaps into the game, but I've never tried those. Search for TransDEM.

@@Sharadise Thank you for the information! I will try it out when I am available
