The RoadTop Mass Transit Plugin, v2.1
=====================================

Welcome to the roadtop mass transit mod, version 2.0. This mod adds new, functional mass transit stops to your Rush Hour game. The stops include the following:

Bus Stop, Road
Bus Stop, One-Way
Bus Stip, Street
Subway Stop, Road
Subway Stop, Avenue
Bus/Subway Stop, Road
Bus/Subway Stop, Avenue

These stops plop directly down on your roads and avenues, and don't take up space along the side!! :) Note that there are a few known issues with these mods, that were working towards a fix for.

1) If plopped in front of a 1xY residential zone, an NRZ (No Road Zot) will appear, and the lot will abandon.
2) You can't plop two stops right next to each other.

There may be ways to get around these propblems, and may not be. These mods will be updated regularly as new discoveries are made. Future version should work seamlessly over the top of old ones. Just overwrite the old file.

Notes
-----

This mod only works with the Rush Hour expansion pack installed. It makes use of new features added with Rush Hour that are not available in the original game.

There are several NEW types of mass transit stops in this mod. Road top bus stops, avenue top bus stops, and combination bus/subway stops. Just plop one of these down on top of an existing road, street, one-way, or avenue, and your good to go. The combo bus/sub stop will connect to subway tracks layed underground.

Installation and Removal
------------------------

This is a self-contained plugin, so just drop the RoadTopMT.dat file in your SimCity plugins directory, and away you go.

To remove the plugin, just remove the .dat. Note that removing the .dat will most likely break any cities that make use of the new bus stop.

Special Notations

Hey, I love the bus stops but im having issues with the subways. I place an avenue bus/substop and i run my subway underneath it and subway doesnt function. I have tried all positions for my subways and it just doesnt seem to work. Anyone else have this problem? Thanks

I've been using this mod for a while, but I've just noticed this problem as well.  Odd thing is the other Bus/Subway combo works just fine.  I still give 5/5 for this mod, especially being self-contained without the excessive dependencies like the alternatives.  My suggestion to anyone using this mod is don't bulldoze the bus stops you already have on the avenues, and just use the vanilla subway stations along avenues, and/or build your subways underneath roads.
