    So I'm currently working on a racetrack (also my first map) and it's going quite well aside from one thing. First off, I'm using Structure < Building Blocks < 5x5 Flat. I figured out how to bank turns with them, but I can't figure out how to make the track un-bank (while keeping it smooth) after the turn. The track just keeps going into an infinite corkscrew. Any ideas?

    Opposite of the way you banked it.

    I've tried that. The inner edge smooths out perfectly, but the outer edge ends up looking like a staircase

    As you can see, all you're really doing is lifting one side, while keeping the opposite side at one level. Just slightly angle the other side up until you reach the middle of the banked turn, then slightly angle this same side down until you reach the end of the banked turn. In the meantime keeping the inner side at the same level.

    Get it?
