Description
Not a realistic layout this time but I thought I'd post another update.
Since the last time posted about this I have added half loops, but the most significant improvement is the use of arc length parametrization for all track piece curves, which eliminates the distortion that was previously visible on many track pieces, particularly diagonals.
I also found that the geometry of the diagonal slopes was incorrect; fixing this has made the discontinuities between diagonal pieces much less severe. -

Oh~
Looks really good, as close to the original art style as I could imagine it being. I'm curious what parts of the track are colorable, or is it just the track and supports that can be changed, with no tertiary color?
The rails are one color, the rest
I wanted to include the half loops (because they are new), but don't yet have corkscrews, so a realistic layout would be difficult.
The rails are one color, the rest of the track is another, and the supports are a third. I can change the color scheme easily, but I don't think I can have more than three remappable colors.
Do you have full loops, large loops, vertical track, and quarter loops?
Every time you tease these new tracks I just hnnnng
I have vertical track. If I had those other things I would pretty much be done - there's just a handful of track pieces left to add. Full loops and large steep to flat will be next.
Nice work.
Wow great job. I love how the tight helix's look and the heartline twists.
