Distinguish between rail and chain signals in map mode

Post by blazespinnaker »

It'd be great if chain signals were a different shape than the rail signals in map mode. They're both round circles unfortunately. Sometimes I find I put rail signals where chains signals should be and vice versa, being able to scan via map mode for these silly mistakes would be terrific.

I think this is a very first world problem solving, because you can simply zoom in. :)
Cool suggestion: Eatable MOUSE-pointers.

I would like this to be added not because I can’t zoom in, but because seeing things from the map view is a much better way to get a “big picture” of a large portion of the rail network.

ZOom in? When I do that the signals just change from squares to circles. Didn't help!
