TrackDesigner 1.3 Layout Editor For Scalextrix Slot Car System

1816 TrackDesigner is a layout editor for the Scalextrix slot car racing system. The un-registered version is fully functional but is limited to 30 sections per layout.

New in 1.3 ?

• Version 1.3 is compatible with Tiger and Leopard; no new functionality has been added.

New in 1.2.2 ?

• This is a partial implementation of the Elevated Crossover C8295. Our understanding is that the two sections supplied may in fact be used independently and this is how we implement them now. The downside is that TrackDesigner will not force completion if they are used together.

• We will develop this according to user feedback. The options are:

° 1 keep it as it is
° 2 implement similar to Straight Crossover C8210 but with two versions, one for 90 deg, one for 180 deg
° 3 (most difficult so least quick smile) retain separate implementation but have TrackDesigner detect if one C8295 section is on top of another and only then force a fit

Main features:
• create your own bank of track sections using descriptions or Scalextric codes
• All sport and currently available classic track included, with conversion between the two properly handled
• draggable section-type bins with number available indicator
• colour-coded lanes respond to any cross-over sections
• change the direction of curves and side-swipes
• create bridges
• drag and drop or centre the whole track
• rotate layout through 90 degrees clockwise or anti-clockwise
• unlimited undo/redo
• traffic lights and different engine sounds indicate how well the ends meet
• simple graphic indicates whether or not lanes are of equal length
• scaled vertical and horizontal axes show how much room your layout will need
• slider to scale track view
• choice of metric or imperial units
• metrics drawer
• save and load layouts
• quick help menu showing key modifiers and detailed HTML help
