I can get about 1/3 of the bridge supported by putting triangle supports underneath (using the mounting in the water), and about two segments or so supported using suspension-bridge type stuff on the right side. But this is no good. I tried putting lots of triangles (including using the middle dimension) all the way across to support, but there is problem with compression on the far left because of the rising land there stopping me from putting additional bracing. Also having problems with the budget, I can't go too crazy with tons of bracing to keep it up.
Besides, I don't think it would support the entire bridge http://www.pontifex2.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'>
I've never had any success building bridge "arches" or anything, perhaps this would be a better solution? I looked at one of the poster's website where he had pictures of all his 'solutions', but he just had a default suspension bridge for 13, and when I built it it barely held together with no train. With train, she went down pretty hard.
Please somebody give me some hints, its causing me headaches http://www.pontifex2.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'> (It took me like two hours to finish level 12, BTW. I was pretty thrilled to finally get 0 breakage on that one, lemme tell ya)
