[2.0.76] Elevated Rail Shadows

What can be seen in the attached screenshot is that the elevated rails to the left are casting shadows onto the rail ramp to the right and not on the elevated curved rails. The break in shadows is clearly along the line of those two entities.

Thanks for the report however I don't believe we will be doing anything about this. This is yet another case of trying to fake 3D in a 2D game that just doesn't quite work right.

Yeah, I can understand that with this rail ramp. I know that you cast a shadow over the "lower" part of it but have no way of preventing that on the "upper" part of it. Just wanted to point it out just in case.

Thinking about this further after a couple days; what about having the shadow 'fade' along the ramp? Normal shade at the 'bottom' and then fades out to nothing as the ramp elevates. Just an idea.
