Rail alignemt vertical / horizontal

Post by Quax »

I don't know if I'm doing something wrong. When having a blueprint that includes rails, I cannot simply rotate the blueprint. If constructed in one way (eg. horizontal), its of by one tile when rotating. This is incredibly annoying, and I cannot believe this is the built-in behavior. So obviously I'm doing something wrong, but I cannot find out what.

As you can see in these images. When placed vertically, the blueprint aligns perfectly with the given grid. Horizontally - nope (see the concrete part of the blueprint). (The refeined hazard concrete builds exact squares 100 x 100 tiles)

Any help is appreciated.

I don't see a difference, they are equally offset in both vertical and horizontal rotation because of the 2x2 rail grid.

Move one of the concrete lanes 1 tile to the outside or to the inside. It's probably not equidistant to the center but instead 1 tile mismatched.
