You have to build a tunnel just when the hill starts, and finish. Attached a horrible drawing xD

Hm, it doesn't seem to be as easy as in your drawing...
After a lot of trial and error I came up with this result (see below). Sometimes I had to start the tunnel 2 tiles from the slope and sometimes 3 tiles from the slope in order to get the tunnel portal. But for some road types (and the rail) I couldn't get a visual connection between the tunnel portal and the road (rail) at all, no matter what I did.
Is there a special trick to it that I should be aware of?

Update Sep 12, 2020:
As I am not really active here anymore, I am not able to answer any PMs in time.
So, as long as you mention me in the plugin and the description, feel free to use or modify my plugins for your own creations.

My intention is to add a "constant level" mode. That should make it much easier to build such tunnels :mine

Building a tunnel that climbs up or goes down from a huge hill is a big war with fails and glitches
