Keep level would be a big request from me, just let us start a bridge at 5m and then no matter where we draw it, the endpoint will be at the exact same height instead of being 5m above whatever ground we place it. I've found that you still need to level the sea floor to get a straight bridge....

Random thought that came to mind while watching this video... whether through vanilla, dlc or through mods, I think it'd be interesting to see graffiti appear on the cut and fill walls when the wall is above road-level. Could perhaps even tie into crime to generate tags. Maybe even set certain cut-and fill walls to allow graffiti art.

Now that more of the options and features can be freely explored and exploited, we are going to start seeing some really cool stuff with the cut and fill and stacked roads and so much more. With the lack of props, stuff like layers, zoning, and road layouts are going to be even more important.

For anyone trying to create quays by the water and run into issues with the "in water" error, or simply don't want the terrain to rise to the 3.75m road elevation when creating the quays; try this. 1. Level the water terrain and ground terrain at the shore line. 2. Instead of building the quay by the water, extend your ground terrain out into the water a fair bit more than you want it to be. Then create a ditch at the elevation of the water floor, and build your road next to the ditch instead. The quay with zoning can then be built without having to elevate the road itself, because it gets the "elevation" from the ditch. Then you just terraform away the extra land area and let the water take its place again.
