Hi, I'm new to mapmaking. Could you teach me how to place bridges correctly so they don't float above the ground?

I had a similar problem. To solve it, just place a piece of land under the bridge, but in such a way that the bridge isn't completely on it, only partially (this is hard to describe in words). The land block should be inside the bridge support's texture, but not directly underneath it; otherwise, the bridge will simply rest on that land block.

What if, for example, you first place the bridge foundation and then create a plateau underneath it? There remains a small space, a void. As I understand it, it doesn't need to be filled, or is it still desirable to create a hill?

Okay, here's a simple method for placing bridges: place the bridge in the desired location; then adjust the z-coordinate (Object Properties => Pos). By decreasing the z-coordinate, you will lower the bridge deck and its base to the required height.

Indeed, it turns out to be that simple. Thank you very much for your help; otherwise, I would have struggled for a long time trying to adjust the terrain to fit my bridge.
