Catalogue of composite track elements

Introduction

A composite track element can be seen as a track element that is built up out of a combination of different track elements. This article offers lots of possible combinations. Often using the technique of the Illusion_track.

The catalogue

When executing a composite track element, you may skip up to two track elements without receiving penalty time. When you see a yellow square in the image, it means there are overlapping track elements at that location. Rotating them or mirroring them may make them illegal or badly rendered.
