Also a question, can we delete lines from the template that are in the way with our track? (For example: X mark for station area and blue line at template exit? )

I would leave them there for judging, but delete them when you are going to upload on the exchange.

I just finished the layout here. Now off to some small tweaking and smoothing. After that it's time for the supports. I hope I can do all that in 1,5 weeks with my busy schedule... [:)]

It's nice of you to give us enough credit to think that either one of us would be able to remember who asked what questions in this forum [lol]

You're welcome lol. Gah, my supports look retarded in some places. Then again B&M supports always look retarded imo.

I don't think this has been asked yet, and it's not on the FAQs, but are tunnel intrusions that are well below the track/train legal?

^Yes, if there is no way the train or its riders can touch the intrusions, it's no problem.

Yeah, the "tunnel test" is a little unrealistic. Well, it's unrealistic to say "anything that comes within the tunnel means the ride fails clearance tests".

Should we get any confirmation of the receipt of our submissions? Because I sent in an early version to make sure I had something submitted, and haven't heard anything back yet...

I should probably finish supports by tomorrow
otherwise, I won't be able to because of my state over the weekend, which will be either drunk or high or both.
