Here is an example of what I mean: the cave I'll show is a pit and I made plan sketches as a horizontal sections. The extended profile turned out good. one of the plan sketches is distorted as you can see here:
[image: image.png] The original scrap is Kimron-1_15Xp, the new scrap is scrap26, so, I moved all the map elements except the stations, so now my scrap look like this ( the stations still exists in the .th file): scrap Kimron-1_15Xp -projection plan -scale [0 0 20 0 0 0 1 0 m] point 146.75 -130.52 station -name "1_9" point 162.64 -129.64 station -name "1_10" point 186.31 -124.43 station -name "1_11" point 198.19 -127.12 station -name "1_12" point 176.97 -115.01 station -name "1_13" point 191.00 -109.43 station -name "1_14" point 194.21 -92.76 station -name "1_15" point 182.67 -112.46 station -name "1_16" point 186.84 -71.79 station -name "1_17" endscrap scrap scrap26 -projection plan -scale [0 0 20 0 0 0 1 0 m] line wall -close on..... when I ran scrap26 the map is correct: [image: image.png] I used this Technic several times and it worked every time.
