The new reference grid option for building paths are great. What would be even better is to apply this new feature for placement of building grids as well! [heart]
This is a initial problem since Alpha 1, that you cannot integrate buildings to already placed paths or other buildings you want to synchronise with. I am chocked that Frontier haven't address this problem yet? You are so close now!
It is more common to plan your park by placing your path first and adding buildings alongside with it. This became even more clearer during the GameCom live streams were this became a obvious issue for the community guest players who actually expected this new reference grid feature to solve this "path first, building later"-issue. Still, why does Frontier only see a "Building first, path later"-issue that have been manageable since Alpha1? [mouth shut]
Look at these clips to recognize this problem:
Live stream day 1. Start from 1h 25min into the clip.

We expect to be able to decorate bridges build out with paths first and adding building pieces later on. This is still not possible and you have to rely on your own eye-measure-skills to make this through.
Live stream day 3. Start from 1h 6min into the clip.

He expected to be able to align building walls to his pre-planned paths to create a nice mural fence. Instead he ending up almost giving it up.
This issue has been addressed in YouTube clips before. Please help me find them and link them here in this thread.
