Too long

Segments longer than about 100km cannot be saved. In addition, there are several good reasons to keep segments shorter than 10km (though they should still not have unnecessary junctions):

  • Long roadways or railroads with the city name present will cause a smudged city issue on the city layer.
  • Long segments require more resources in the client and WME to render on screen.
