  I suggest giving us Captains the ability to create underground tunnels, such as through a mountain. I am not entirely sure how this could be implemented, but something involving a Tunnel Bore to keep with the theme would be cool.

  As per the title, would be pretty cool as a way to tunnel through cliffs, etc instead of bringing it all down

  This would be nice for dont destroy the nice views of the map. Also this would help to reduce the ammount of stone from mining.

  Would be cool with a large tunnel boring machine with multiple modules and having trucks to resupply and remove excess material.

  I'd also like the ability to build a structure that would become a tunnel when you dump on top of it. I'm making a huge ramp right now and a lot of my trucks are pathing right through an area that will become blocked by the ramp when it's done.

  I was thinking that specialized tunnels would be very useful for saving space over land, eg. a tunnel specifically for trucks or pipes, you chose the start and end for the tunnel and then you do not have to worry if any buildings are in your way as the tunnel would just go under them and your trucks would not get blocked by the different transports like pipes.

  I played around with a Unity Game engine add-on that I got from the Unity store. It looks to me this would be fairly easy to add to the game. Maybe as a mod or DLC if it can't be done by Release.

  I think instead of having to tunnel everything pipes wise it it would be great if we had tunnel "entry" and tunnel "exit" pipes. this way you don't have to pipe everything everywhere. The game "Automation Empire" has a very similar concept, and it works brilliantly. This way you would set up your storage tanks and pipes entry and exit points only. I will suggest this as a new idea.

  Roller Coaster Tycoon did it decently well.

  Having to dig massive cuts through mountains, that could easily be tunneled, feels unrealistic

  that would be kinda good it takes a while for my exavators to dig into the mountain and out if we had tunnels we would not have to have dig and also there can be shifting things

  Apologies to the Captains, I did not realize this was already posted as an idea.

  You already can do a much better thing: flatten the mountain!

  What would be even more useful is bridges!
  Just blocking the sea and filling huge piles seems very inefficient and doesn't look good.

  Its an option to dig the mountain, but on many maps is to flat the mountain not a cool version. I wanted also to dig a tunnel for a train for iron on the otherside of the mountain and not dig 5h a mountain to a flat version. :D Supp

  Digging tunnels with supports for trains and general throughfare would be an amazing addition. Please, consider this request, absolutely love this game, the best one in this genre in my opinion. Supporting you guys with the support packs. You guys have done a fantastic job so far, Thank you :D
