FS Tiberium Crater (2-3), My first published map Options

[Q45]

This is my first published map. It took me about a week to finish it. There's a big crater in the middle of the map, which is full of tiberium and tiberium lifeforms. There is a small city near it and a train going around the map. I also tested curving tunnels in this map. I wanted to put some triggers in this map, so I made the local church emit the holy light of God. Destroy it, and He'll pay you back big time.

I had some difficulties with the tracks going under bridges. As you can't put them both in the same cell, I had to use tunnels to make the train move under the bridges. If anyone has a better solution for this problem, please tell me!

I also noticed that the train stops if a visceroid comes in front of it. I had to make all the tiberium lifeforms Crushable=yes to make the train move continuously. But now also other vehicles can crush them. Is it possible to make them crushable by only the train?

Constructive criticism is welcome!

looks like we need to put up a proper tunnel making tutorial. *not it*
I know the jpgs in the FinalSun help file are so helpful, that is to say they are crappy and useless.

This is a decent looking map. The only thing it really lacks are the fine details, LAT, traffic, civilians, maybe some cool triggers. As far as train tracks going under bridges, it might just be best to ditch the train bridge and just put a tunnel there
