Metro Track Help

[unmerged(242033)]

Hi folks, I've been playing the beta but I'm struggling with Metro tracks, how do I join sub surface sections with ground sections of track?
I'm trying to use the ground to underground connector but I can't get them to connect!

I usually build the ground tracks first, then the ground to underground, and then connect the ground to underground with the underground tracks. Notice you have three levels to build your subway tracks in, so that might be the problem.

If you want to connect underground with ground metro - use this connector. It's a bit tricky but when you get used with it its very easy. I do it by first place the connector where it should be and then connect the tracks to it.
If you want to connect ground with elevated - it is more easy. Just select one of them, no matter which and continue the existing tracks. It will automatically elevate/lower the track.
Hope this will help.

Hy Chrism_scotland, just use the special part in the metro building window to go underground. You arrive at level -1. If your track is on the same level you can connect direct. If your tracks are at -2 or -3 go to the last part of one of the two to connect sections and chose by clicking your mouse. Keep the left mousebutton pushed and go to the end of the second section. Look carefully if the section lights up brighter green as before (presuming the section lights up green ;-) ) If you have bright green and you are satisfied with the chosen route unleash the mousebutton end you have created a connection between two sections of various level.
Be sure not to cross any roads on the groundlevel. Due to a bug in the beta version you will not be able to connect ground and sublevel stations in a route afterwards.
