Adjust the track condition
(i) Load your test route in Surveyor, and open the Track Tab
(ii) Click on the Properties tool (?) and click on the track. Adjust the default track condition from 50 to 1. Repeat for various track segments.
Note: You may want to place objects or paint the terrain next to where you change the track condition to see where you "should" notice the effect.

(v) R-Click > Submit Edits
Note: Close Trainz and re-open (Start Trainz) after creating your bump assets for the changes to take effect.
Try out your new Bump 1 asset
(i) Place your new bump onto the track in Surveyor, run your test drive over the bump in Driver and see what happens differently with your new asset.
Hint: Rock and _ _ _ _
