You could include an empty subpart file for the type 5 lines, just in
case someone wants to make them later.
Also, perhaps the hilly area itself should be made into a subpart. That
might make it easier to add the crater studs and the painted studs
and flat area of the 6190 Shark's Crystal Cave version of this part.
Just trying to get the most out of this amazing part file...
