    Mixed feelings, you need more roundabouts for throughput on busy junctions. They're trying to buff traffic lights, they do appear better. But I'm not sure the T/Y junction being slower won't reduce high scores.

    I think gutting slipways is gonna be rough, that was how you got cars onto the major highways without slowing things down and now that it's gone... yikes. Everything else is really nice though! The buffs to traffic lights feel very smooth, way better than the old version.

    The 3 way intersection change only makes sense for Y intersections where the main road can be ambiguous, but for T intersections there's clearly a main road where cars shouldn't have to slow down through it or give way. Traffic lights feel great, and I think roundabouts somehow end up getting more congested? I've only played 2-3 games of this current patch so I'd have to play more.

    The way that groups of houses are put onto roadways is going to be much different now. Less interruptions, the better, so I'm guessing way more use of traffic lights and roundabouts to smooth out problem spots, which is really nice to see! Traffic lights were almost useless before, but now I can see a couple places where I'd like them.

    I feel like makeing slipways be considered intersections is big mistake, the whole point of them was to get traffic to flow easier. Also, I really wish you didn't have to wait for cars en route to finish before regaining deleted items like highways and bridges. ALSO, an UNDO button would be nice. I can't tell you how many times i've accidentally deleted a highway while trying to make adjustments and with the aforementioned waiting that can be a game ender.

    if you'd be able to regain all pieces while cars are still on the road you could theoretically create optimal routes for every car on the road using a very limited amount of road just by deleting the street once the car got in route. Would be all about apm at that point. Of course this is theoretically but it would break the game.

    @@NPCrash I kind of agree, but there is also an argument that it's less realistic this way. For example, when driving along a highway in the real world, you don't normally slow down when you're passing a small road that leads to a neighborhood, and you wouldn't expect a light or stop sign at that intersection either; you maintain full speed on regular highways until you reach a large intersection which inevitably has a traffic light.

    Ok folks, I have a *solution* ! I played around with intersections and houses and discovered that cars DON'T slow down when the intersection is right besides the house (if the house directly goes into the road without any tile inbetween). So if you try to create a large roadnetwork you have to lead the road next to the houses!

    Cars also don't slow down when there is a normal intersection but also a house's "entry road" (the 1 road tile that is attached to a house). This 1 road tile "overwrites" the slowing of cars. Works also with the entry road tile of warehouses.

    Because it’s clearly not a bug - if it were, they’d have fixed it ages ago. They’re calling it a bug now so that they don’t have to call it what it is, a balance patch. They coded it that way, knowingly, then left it that way, again knowingly, for well over a year. If the game was in open beta or something then I wouldn’t consider it cheeky. At such a point in development you might have an “oopsie” where the 3-way intersections do what the programmer implemented instead of what the designer intended.

While you can never really know what a person knew or didn't, you can look at what any "reasonable person" would know and reason on that basis. Any reasonable developer would have known about the 3-way intersection from... playing the game for 10 minutes. So. I can presume the developers are incompetent, which is a little odd given how polished the game is in all other respects. Or I can presume what I have presumed. They knew about it. And recently decided to balance patch it. I don't fault their coding. I just get frustrated when developers presume that I'm an epic scale moron who can't tell the difference between a legit bug and a design choice.

    With the right-hand red rule, you can implement this with a traffic light, but there will be a bit of a hiccup every now and then if a bunch of cars need to turn. Ironically, the rules that we all learned to obey on the roads are extremely tough to program! Our brains do a lot of processing that we just can't easily translate to code.

    Making cars slow down so much when there is an incoming slip road is kinda rubbish imho, I would rather have the option of setting priorities with yield/give-way instructions for roads joining a more major road... I guess that would make it more of a simulation like Cities Skylines than the arcadey nature of the game, but idk, if/when a sandbox mode gets added, maybe the more granular simulation-style tools for optimisation would be more appropriate...

    I guess that depends on what time travel theory you subscribe to. A single timeline would cause a paradox to occur because you've altered events, so assuming it's possible to go back and eat a life-changing candy bar, I'd say that multi-timeline theory is true and that nothing would happen, but you wouldn't build the time machine and you'd have to spend most of your adult life trying to not be seen by anyone you used to know! tl;dr jump forward to eat a candy bar, there's less implications lol.
