fix(editor): a straight between two curves turning the same way, traced in the mode of a curve, is laid as a straight: points along a curve, about 200 m of straight and a curve the same way (wgr.scn) were fitted as one compound curve of eight arcs, its straight two arcs run up to R 50000 and laid at R 10360 once the curve was scaled between its tangents. The two curves with a straight between them, fitted about as closely, weren't taken over it, and were refused anyway: the last curve rounded to the metre no longer fitted up to the last point. A compound curve with an arc more than 4 times flatter than its sharpest one gives way to curves with straights between them which keep to the points about as closely, where straights between curves may be laid; the curves fitted are settled to the metre, or as laid a hair under where that gives a warning, as the chain of a reverse curve was; the chain of curves takes curves turning the same way with straights between them too, three of them, and wins over the two curves where it keeps closer. Unit tests of the points of wgr.scn and of two and three curves turning one way with straights between them

fix(editor): a curve laid from a free end on a curve, or to one, goes on from its curvature: traced (Tab) from the end of the diverging track of a switch it begins right at P4 at the radius of the switch, not on a straight nor with a transition from a curvature of 0. The design of the line takes the curve of the adjoining track at each end (start_curved/end_curved with the radius, the side and the cant, kept with it in the scenery): the curve of the first vertex turning its way, or of the last one, begins right at the end, its transition going from that curvature and cant to those of its first arc, as between the arcs of a compound curve, none where it goes on at its radius; the radius of its arcs is the one which begins it there, solved for the tangent, the curves next to it making room on the straight. A curve traced next to such an end is fitted by its transitions alone, with none between the curves where the points keep to that as well, or laid from a straight there where it doesn't go on from it or that keeps to the points much closer: eased out of the curve of a plain track by the transition of the norms, the line beginning at its end, or right from P4, as a switch goes on with a straight. A bend of straights turning the way of the curve gets its curve going on from it with the transitions and the cant of the norms; the other way, or a straight, as before: eased out of the curve of a plain track, the jump of the curvature kept at a switch, as at its start, and not warned of. The cant of the adjoining track goes on into the curve with no ramp at that end; the norms ask for the transition between the curves only where the curvature differs by more than 5 % or the cant by 5 mm. The readout by the cursor, the status after laying and the plan tell the curve going on from the track, the plan with a box to go on or not. Dragged back to P4 from a point the curve goes on from its radius too. Selftests laywalk, laybends, curvejoint, endcurves; unit tests of a curve going on from a switch and into a free end, its cant, traced, through a transition into a larger radius, and of a bend of straights after such an end

feat(editor): a track deleted cuts the design kept for its line down to the tracks left along it, in the same step of the undo history: a design keeps the stretch of its line it stands for (//$h kept <from> <to>), a track deleted in the middle parts it in two, one at an end shortens it, a design with no track left is forgotten. The geometry stays as designed, only its reach changes. A design cut down isn't taken whole by the route plan nor merged with a new one nor carried along by a switch slid, and gives no designed curve to the tracks left of a curve it cut, which are recognized as they lie: a track laid by hand into the gap is never pulled back to the old shape. The status tells of it. The //$h click lines are the editor's own now: read back with their design, and written once on save instead of staying behind and piling up. Selftests on a copy of wgr.scn: a track of a compound curve deleted in the middle, undone and redone, one at an end, all of a piece, saved and read back

fix(track): two switches laid right after one another, with no plain track between them, are joined, the vehicles no longer derail there: only the plain tracks looked for their neighbours, so the end of the main track of one switch at the start of the next one was joined to nothing, and an axle getting to it ran onto a track made to derail it. TTrack::join_switches joins the free ends of a switch to the ends of other switches in the same points, on both sides, with the codes of the ends the axles go on by: the end of either path of one at the start of the other, two facing at their starts, two meeting at their ends; done once the plain tracks are joined as the scenery is loaded, the old sceneries too, and as the editor joins a switch laid. Selftest pathwalk walks the tracks as an axle does: P2 to P1, P4 to P1, start to start and end to end go through either way
