It's a small difference, feeding from the correct end shortens journeys by a slight amount early game.

Also, if a business is "full" and can't spawn any more pips, it'll "give" that pip to another of the same business color. This is why small businesses seemingly out of nowhere will kill you endgame, it's because a big business has to start pip-dumping on it.

The lights are somewhat more useful now, but they still help most where heavy fast traffic passes a quiet side road. It can reduce the pins then from a dest. They don't solve problems caused by junctions being too close or having to mix colours and house sources

Yes, Traffic lights have become stronger but you woefully underestimated the worth of roundabouts. A roundabout in that upper right corner yellow neighborhood probably would've cleared out the traffic jam in that area very fast. Granted, at that point in the game it was pretty much over anyway, but still.

Thanks Tyler. A lot of old 'tips and tricks' videos tell you that traffic lights should be avoided.

Where the 2 pink businesses had the 3 way intersection in the middle, you could’ve put in a traffic light because it would’ve just kept all traffic from slowing down. This would be because the bottom left, up right roads would’ve had green light 24/7 since the up left road would’ve only had people turning right on red which is allowed

When almost all of the businesses are panicking and the game is lagging because of all the effects but your fine =god gamer

"Looks like I need to buss in the pinks"

It looks like they made businesses ramp up after new businesses stop spawning. That's pretty clever. It fixes infinite runs and discourages spawn blocking at the same time. Spawn blocking effectively forces you into the late-game ramping earlier. And no matter how efficient you are, there's a limit on traffic flow through a business itself; ramp demand past that, and it becomes impossible to set up an infinite run.

The game developers can code the "AI", although this game's AI is simplistic enough, that it looks like it just works on a few basic principles. The buff looks like they increased how fast the lights switch to green, as well as how little cars slow down for the lights (They look coded to run "yellows")

When does the next Myst video comes out?

I wonder what would happen if they added 1 way roads.

Mini Motorways is like the demonstration Euclidean zoning doesn't work

I just want to say there is very basic or no AI in the cars. They take the shortest path & the nearest available car is pinged to a specific business. There’s a ping then a car leaves the garage & takes the shortest path to the business that pinged it.

I believe it's a stream. There's a certain point where you don't actually need to connect all the houses in order to satisfy a business.
