Using pak128, I'm trying to build a bridge from a track at one level above the ground (within a city, so this is a street) to another track at two levels above the ground, and can't seem to do it. What I'm trying to do is create a "passing rail", but above/below, rather than side by side, as one would do with a regular rail. Is this not possible?
it's possible.
there are two ways of doing it.
one is by using the up slope tool on a ground level track and the other is to use the bridge between a ground level track and elevated track.
make sure the ground and elevated are on the same line, then use the bridge tool on the ground track. It should make a bridge to connect both levels together.
you can also use slope tool on elevated ways ;)
That is sick. A pretty elegant solution.
Problem is, I only seem to be able to use the slope tool on the end of a way, allowing me to angle the end up, but not for anything after that, and can't seem to connect my ground + 1 level sloped up ramp with my ground + 2 level way. Has anyone put together a tutorial or the like for this?

to connect them, you have to 'build' a non-elevted way between them.
OK, this is making me feel stooopid.
So, I have two monorail tracks that look like this:
+2 level: = =
+1 level: = =
Ground:
Then I use the slope tool to make them look like this:
A B
+2 level: = =
+1 level: \ =
Ground:
Sections A and B look as if they're connected, but they're not, and I don't seem to be able to use the non-elevated tool to connect them, though I may be doing it wrong. What am I missing? Am I going about it all wrong?

A B
+2 level: * =
+1 level: \ *
Ground:
You have to use the non-elevated tool directly on the elevated tiles as marked by * (it may be confusing as elevated ways are build by placing the cursor one level below the level, where one wants to build.
Thanks. I swear I tried that at first and it didn't work but works great now. ???
