Title: visible grid underground
Post by: uci on March 10, 2018, 09:44:28 AM
I'm not sure if this is a bug or a feature in pak128 but there is no grid visible in underground mode. A related old topic here

https://forum.simutrans.com/index.php?topic=14068.0 (https://forum.simutrans.com/index.php?topic=14068.0)

There is an easy fix for this.

replace grid color #000000 with #202020

Now we have some guidance when building underground.

As I have been playing only pak128 I never thought of having a grid underground. I used to build underground networks using coordinates  ;D
I'm putting your file in the repository right now, thank you ;)

Well, it depends on taste. But Simutrans help files make reference on using grid when working underground, especially in slice mode view.
