How deep can we build underground way ?

[z9999]

Just a question.
I know officially slice mode supports water level and above, but is it difficult to support below water level ?

Current problem is this...
If I build a way on water level (-2), I can't select a tile under it.
Is this a limitation of this feature, and is it difficult to solve this ?
Thanks.

In principle , it should be possible to build below water level. However, the transformation mouse coordinates -> simutrans coordinates is somehow buggy when slice level is below groundwater level.

You can use the standard artificial slope tools.

So, you mean it is impossible to solve my problem ?
Okay, thank you.

No ! It (only) needs to be fixed

Here is a patch, cannot submit - svn host seems to be down.

[z9999]

Thank you, it worked well.

Does your patch fully support till grundwasser-5, or it is still buggy ?
If it is stable, is it possible to change minimum level on display setting window to grundwasser-5 ?
In current version, minimum level on display setting is grundwasser.

[Dwachs]

It should work until grundwasser-10. No guarantees however.

Yes you are right, the display menu needs to be changed as well.

Thank you.

Should be fixed inrev 2616.
