    It could be a nice starting point, but I’ve another idea about how station upgrades can be done. It is more complex, but gives also more design freedom of your stations and has more possibilities for later features.

    It could start with any size of station.

    1. Add more tracks by dragging a new track besides the existing track/platform of the station. With a menu like the bridges you can then choose between a track with a platform or only a track. This gives also the possibility to build in passing lanes into the stations.
    2. To elongate the platforms it will work the same as adding a track to the station, but here it’s done by elongate the existing track(s). This gives also the possibility to have the station building out of the center.

    I guess that point 1 shouldn’t be that much of a problem to implement and is also the most important one. Point 2 however has some practical design issues like:

    • How to deal with different lengths of different platforms on the same station?
    • How to deal with different curved tracks? (When curved platforms are possible at all.)

    These issues are of course also opportunities for new features later on.

    A thing on the wish list is the possibility to add a station entrance on also the other side of the station.
