I try to correct a overly undulating runway, to make it usable with "runways follow land contours" on. This involves making small well-tailored and -fit hard-surfaced planes and place them to fill the deep concave kinks. One problem with this is that the runway surface markings remain on the main (unusable) surface. I already requested Ben to make the markings stick with the highest hard surface, but whether he will be able to accommodate, I don't know. But for small fix-ups that are not to far higher than the main runway surface, a transparent texture may work. I have to try.
