Weird graphical glitch when drawing multi level road transport network
Associated question here.
I am trying to draw a multi level road transport network in Anylogic. This particular part of the network needs to be at a higher level than others. This is a highway with an exit:

The three roads have a z value of 100 each:



However, when I run the model, I see the 3-D rendering like so:


I would like them all to be raised but for some reason, they look weird.
What am I doing wrong?
Edit 1
So I think I now understand one critical aspect of the the points and their z-positions. There is an overall z value of the road:

Setting the z value for all the roads as 100 solved my issue.
So, my question now is: are the Z values of the points in the tables above relative to the "absolute" z-position of the road?

Yes, that is how it works. Notice that it is the same for x and y coordinates: You specify the overall x-y values for the first point of your road. Any subsequent point is relative to that, hence the first point having x= and y=0:

Thank you for that clear explanation!
