I am trying to draw a new map ... blank ... and I can't get the road menu to work properly.

You can't import these, so I ... think ... I have entered the correct settings ...

* When I want to draw a road in a hex, no problem

* When I want to draw a rail line in a hex, no problem

* BUT, when I want to draw a road AND a rail line in the same hex, whichever one is there first is wiped out by attempts to draw the second type.

OK, I am obviously missing something, I have copied the settings from one of the existing scenarios, but have obviously missed something ... what?

Phil

Check the value of Road --> Details --> FirstOtherRoad which means when you draw this type of road, another type of road with specific value is also drown.

I believe you need a road+rail draw type. This is how the default graphics work, though I can't recall what the file is called. Open up Voronezh and take look.

I wish we could import roads and rivers too it's seriously annoying... or is there a way and I'm not finding it?

The only way I found of doing it was to take an existing scenario and import the map I am working on into it ... that being the only change ... so that pre-existing settings were, well, pre-existing

Trying to add them, one at a time, by hand, simply didn't work. At all. Even with the advice given. Obviously, still doing something wrong, but at least the import option worked ... and I can then delete all the unwanted units, history etc. etc. much more easily than hand entering data one element at a time
