track_features::crossings and track_features::sleepers, both off: the rails of plain tracks and of switches with the key
frogs are laid whole as before, and no sleepers or timbers are laid whatever sleepers3d in eu07.ini sets, the ballast kept
- sleepers3d / sleepers3dplain / sleepers3dbed in eu07.ini: timbers put together from the begin, main and end parts of a model
and stretched to their length, plain sleepers of their own model; tracks whose plain sleepers would touch are laid as one
cluster, lines of timbers led by priority and turned to the bisectors of frogs and crossings at a limited rate, whole timbers
under crossings, split ones between tracks with room to part them, gaps filled per rail and overlaps shortened or dropped;
clusters worked out in a background thread while driving, on demand in the editor
- the ballast can be left out under the beams (sleepers3dbed no)
- blades get their heel and throw from the switch template or blades <heel> <throw> in the scenery; blades of double switches
run on into the track linking them to the next switch
- rail cutting at frogs, wing rails, movable noses and switch crossings done by one carving pass (RailCarve)
- tint of the rail treads applied to the colour only, without the matte band at the frog
- a switch trailed through with a movable nose set the other way derails the vehicle
