1. scan the scenery and determine bridges' end points. 2. generate entries for bridges. The type of bridges that will be generated will base on the their lengths. 3. store the information into the database. 4. allow the user to edit various entries, so he/she can change the parameters for the bridge. For example, height, width, truss type, number and location of supports, color, etc. It is the job of scenery designers to alter entries afterward.
