Tracks etc

[Hobbes]

Hi folks, can anyone remind me how you add tracks to a region?
Also how do you change terrain from wild to cleared for example.

Roads I know are a bit different - you have to remove a jumplink I think - but obviously the road will still show on the map.
I would like to change a few roads to tracks though for my WiA 1689 scenario.

Thanks for any info,
Chris

This is in the excel file, cities section, transport network...you enter $Tracks

Thanks Phil, I will leave the roads as they are as this is a region file thing I think.

Cheers, Chris

Just realized that roads seem to be done in the same way - so I can change road to track it seems.

There is a Road defined in Cities file, but the Major Roads are defined in regions files [translinks]. IIRC, the Major Roads are where you see the graphic depiction of a road [all near the coast in WIA]

Thanks Lodi. I assume then that I can change $Roads to $Tracks in the cities file - but changing a major road in the cities file might not work - or have some odd effects? I can see $Major_Road listed in the cities tab.

Not sure what that will do.
Maybe nothing if the translink supercedes it???
