hello everyone..
The new feature "overseas tunnel" was another cool thing in recent version Simutrans.
But, when i playing around with this, i found that underground view with water (sea) being unrealistic.
The railway track was laying down straightly above the sea level. Commonly, an underseas tunnel will be built under the seabed. I refers to the famous "Strait of Dover" tunnel between England and French , wikipedia link http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strait_of_Dover (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strait_of_Dover).
So i have an idea to make slopes underground before the sea tiles.
Please see images below.

Or, maybe someone else got better ideas?
Just an idea,... ;D
looks nice - its would be useful with split levels mode
You can built tunnels under sea in recent nightly versions. Furthermore, you are not allowed to built tunnels through the open sea, otherwise this will be a bug.
Please check a newer nightly.
