My arrogance told me I didn't need to watch this video. I'm glad my humility took over. THANK YOU!!!! I learned about the "Add to pick list" buttons.

Thank you Professor Trainz! :-)

[@bobfuller]

Good tips. Thank you.

In Trainz I’m making a route, when I raise building assets it raises it by 1 meter, how do I do it more precisely, Thx

[@Sharadise]

By holding control while adjusting the height. The same thing works for rotation as well.

[@greaterhoustonrailfan]

@@Sharadise thx!

[@Sharadise]

@@greaterhoustonrailfan Also, with some objects you can hold shift while rotating to roll them.

[@MessengerKeyson99]

how do you save what you copy and pasted??

[@Sharadise]

You can't. When you exit the surveyor the copy buffer is cleared. What I do when I want to save a selection is put a baseboard out in the middle of nowhere (where the player can't see it) and then paste the selection there, so that I can take another copy from it whenever I want.

[@Sharadise]

Unless you meant something different with your question?

[@MessengerKeyson99]

@@Sharadise lets say you created a station. Then you use the copy and paste tool. there's no way to save that station incase one want to use it again in a new 'create route'?

[@Sharadise]

@@MessengerKeyson99 Not really, but there is a way: You could duplicate the route that you have the station on, then on that copy delete all the other baseboards (leaving only the baseboards with the station) and then merge that route in with whatever route you want to have the station on. Then from there you can copy and paste the station where you want it. It's a bit of a hassle, but it would work.
