Splitter

Splits track or street segments.

Saves additional construction work if segments are to be shortened or inserted subsequently. Enables the construction of additional bus, tram and cargo stops along short streets without destroying adjacent AI buildings. Ideal for pinpoint insertion of switches. Can also be used in connection with the 'Ramp Equalizer' mod to shorten inclination changes. In direct split mode, the segment to be cut - pre-indicated by an orange marking - is split directly with the splitter (jackhammer icon in the 'Assets' menu in the 'Tools' category). If the location is unfavorable, the segment can be pre-marked with 'Marker Start/End', selectable in the 'Assets' menu in the 'Tools' category. Then select the splitter and click on the intended separation point.

Important notes:

- Splitting with pre-marking only works if the 'Marker Start/End' mod is installed.
- Intersections and constructions (stations, rigid segments or switches) cannot be split.
- There is a restore function. Nevertheless, the AI development along streets gets lost at this.
- The integrated info panel offers a control option. For checking the result, the 'Info Tool' mod is recommended. The arrangement of the track and street segments can be made visible in the debug mode of the game by pressing [ALT GR] + [L].
- To avoid conflicts with the AI, it is advisable to only carry out construction work in pause mode.
- The mod does not contain its own tracks or streets and can easily be removed again.

- Known issues:

- Very short segments before street intersections can get a too steep inclination. This can be fixed with the 'Ramp Equalizer' mod, but the adjacent AI buildings will be lost.
- The arrangement of masts, lamps, street furniture and bridge piers will change in most cases.
- An intuitive handling at bridges and tunnels was bought with the disadvantage that splittings are only possible in 1 meter steps there. For the vast majority of purposes, however, it should be sufficient.
- On bridges and tunnels, the orange marking stripe follows the terrain and not the route. In the case of the tunnels, this may even be advantageous.
- The markers and the info panel remain active when selecting assets such as the eraser or groups of trees that do not send feedback when toggled.
