TSRE5 Dynamic Track / Flex - google translator
Dynamic Track Flex track laying tests on the example of a double-track line TSRE5_v0.7.012.exe http://koniec.org/tsre5/data/?C=M;O=D .

After starting to edit the Route, press Ctrl + Q to select the option - switch to manually adding the track to the TDB by adding it using the z key -
as described in the TSRE5 manual: Toggle the "manual/auto" add track to TDB option (use Z key for manual)

1 - place the A2t100mStrt track at the two ends of the curve - select the object/track A2t100mStrt on the list / press the mouse Place New - use the mouse cursor and the Ctrl r and Ctrl t keys to place it at the ends of the curve and confirm adding to the TDB with the key z

3 - fly the view to the other end of the curve and mark with the mouse the other end of the A2t100mStrt tracks from the side of the curve - a Dymnamic Track will be created along the curve - add it to the TDB database with the key z

4 - similarly, we create the Dynamic Track on the curve between the other tracks - as you can see, the default Dynamic Track Piece track is 10m long, but you can experiment with its initial lengthening or shortening. It will be easier for single-track railway lines.

Thanks for hint, M61!
Do I understand it right, that we can just drag(point) with mouse, where dynamic track's end should be (and it even can stick to existent track piece there), instead of tedious manual tuning of curved and straight part's parameters?

If so, we are free now to construct tracks in many places simultaneously, because of their easier connection with time, instead of being constrained with necessary to build tracks from one end of line towards the other incrementally.

I tested before midnight on an ad hoc, flat fragment of the route in TSRE5_v0.7.012 from a year ago http://koniec.org/ts...E5_v0.7.012.exe . During the first - unsuccessful - attempts, an additional window with (blue/purple) track lines appeared, only after connecting to the track on the other side of the curve, the dynamic track was generated and connected the straight sections. I can't (yet 🙂) lay tracks, turnouts, sidings - especially on undulating terrain, but I managed to do something like that 😉 . Unfortunately, Piotr Gadecki has not been working as an editor for a year, but he is active on the Polish Skyscrapers Forum. https://www.skyscrap...Cowc%C3%B3w.45/

That's good, he's still active.
That additional window always puzzled me. What it for?

There has never been a constraint to lay track from one end to the other. I have always laid track asynchronously, starting at the end and midway points and laying the known straight sections first, and then coming back and placing the curves.

I've been many times seduced to lay pilot track through all my future line's length, but every time was afraid, how i will insert stations into it then...

Hello.
To flatten it again, You mean, or else?
I'm afraid, this is not a proper topic to talk about terrain, though.
