Good evening.

I will NOT, repeat NOT, pester you with asking for those more elevations (although, in some regard, I would reckon this crucial, but this may well be only MY opinion).

IF, however, you will at some time "ignite that afterburner", I offer once again the "algorithm" I described (not much of an algorithm actually, but merely some relatively simple geometrics). And in this case, please keep in mind that the model I described was purely optional for the map maker, i.e. if he would confine himself to two levels, this would perfectly fit as a "subset" into the map (including file format) I described.

But once again, not meaning to harass you, you only should put a post-it tag on your afterburner that there COULD be a very doable solution...

Best regards, 
Ralf "Pi".
