split joint

Hi,

It is possible to choose wich side of a split joint we want to connect?

Yep, just zoom in on it all the way!

Thank you.

I was going to post a new thread asking about this but then saw this one. I still don't get it - what do I need to do?

I'm having a problem where I want the hydraulics to lift the section of road to the right but can only get it to lift the road on the left.

Maybe I'm blind. :)

I see in the guide that one can zoom in and out using the mousewheel. However, I'm playing on my laptop using its touchpad and haven't been able to use zoom. I've used the touchpad's mousewheel "gesture" in other games to zoom in and out so maybe this game doesn't fully support touchpad use yet? There aren't keyboard keys assigned for zoom so is it even possible to use zoom without a mouse?

Also, I think it would be good if the game could be played completely with a touchpad (or mouse). So instead of having to press the T key to open the toolkit, there'd also be a toolkit icon on the screen to click (or tap).

Hi, thanks for the suggestions, we're planning a re-work of the UI which should fully allow playing on a track-pad and be more flexible.

Currently you can use + or - on your keyboard to zoom in and out if the zoom gesture doesn't work, I will look into that too.

The 'T' keystroke can be replaced with the middle-mouse button, but that is pointless if you're on a track-pad, so it's something we'll think about.

Thanks!

The + and - worked on the keyboard for zoom, so thanks for that, although they aren't currently shown in the keyboard controls.

Regarding touchpads, left-clicks are easier to do than right-clicks so ideally left-clicks should be more frequently used. Having to right-click on items that have been placed on the build screen to select them could be easier with a left-click on a touchpad. Currently, left-clicking on empty space allows one to drag the view but left-clicking on objects does nothing. Left-click could potentially do both.

Anyway, am enjoying the game.
