    Terrain and Roads (visual effects on the island map)

    Hi guys,


    Where I have been playing a real efficiency based type of play in the beginning, I am starting to value more the visual aspect of the game; like building a cool island. I am sorry to see that when I am building roads, the dirt patches on the island keep covering my 'infrastructure'. In other words... the dirt patches stay fully visible and roads disappear beneath them. This doesn't make a lot of sense and it messes up the view

    Wondering here... if game producers are keeping it like this deliberately for a reason I do not know, as it doesn't make a lot of sense to me. At the same time, I am imagining I can't be hard to alter programming code to let roads dominate those terrain objects.

    So what's up with the roads and dirt patches?

    Yup it looks horrible. Same as the beds of flowers, you can't put them next to each other...

    I would like to build dirtroads first and later upgrade them to a street if the road is frequently used. I don't bother with a paved road for a well.



    Also useful if you want a secret passage to the back door of your goldtower.
