Please EA ideas on straight track

Many of us want the monorail all through our towns.  A simple request:

Give us double or triple straight track that we can buy, in game cash or premium I dont care.

or

fix the odds on track creation so straight track is the most likely not the least likely.  We all have hundreds of all the track but straight.

  • The option to swap Curves or S-curves for Straight tracks, or to trade 2 short pieces for a longer Straight, would be a help.

    If they figure where to add the button to open the Trade option, assuming a number-type text box isn't so simple, then I'd hope it had a way to choose which type of track to trade and buttons to trade 1, 10 or 100 - or 2, 10 or 100 for the short bits. Doing it one at a time would be a pain.

    While we are talking monorail.  Spooky Halloween station for October.  Maybe bundle with a new track making building that generates straight track every 12 hours.  Great Gil deal.

  • To get around this, why not use a combination of the S pieces? This is what I've done and it gives the monorail a distinct wiggle throughout the layout. I also use the half-piece in between to help stretch it all out a little.
    Saying all that, I have previously run down my track supplies in the past, but I currently have over 200 pieces of straight and s-pieces, along with over 400 half pieces and over 500 curves. I also have some 7 stations, and one fake station made up from various spar pieces I had available.

  • Scubbie99 Many of us have all the land, and have extensive monorail setups .  Using the S pieces also makes it impossibe to run track in some tight areas. My setup uses hundreds of straight tracks, and for me I started out using the wiggle tracks, and was eventually able to get them eliminated.  Double or triple tracks would greatly reduce the item count for a large setup.

    Hopefully we get a spooky station for Halloween and the placing of tracks on buildings continues. The monorail is one of my favourite parts of the game.
