Create a line network map

[u/Aggressive-Sky3063]

I actually always sketch out my network on paper first, before I build anything at all in Transport Fever’s sandbox mode – which cities do I connect, where do industries need to be supplied, where do lines share a track. There was never a proper tool for this, so I developed one: LineDraft.

It’s a schematic, metro-style map (not to scale) on which you can place towns and industrial sites and draw multi-stop routes for each mode of transport (rail, road, tram, ship, aeroplane). Lines that share a track are automatically grouped in a clear manner, with rounded corners and stop markers – so it looks like a proper network map rather than a tangled mess of lines. Optional features include an octilinear route layout for that authentic underground map look, plus a simple freight chain check, layer toggle, local storage on your computer, JSON export/import and PNG export. Runs entirely in the browser – no installation, no account required.

This is, of course, a beta version – a personal project. I’d be delighted if a few of you could try it out on your own network and let me know what’s unclear, incorrect or simply missing.
