in order of this placed in the city-building concepts, he might be asking about building cities at all... lol

a little more precise question, maybe without all caps, would help

Haha I can't beleive how nice everyone here is. If this was any other forum I've been to (either for music, other games, w/e) they would've bash the hell out of that poor fellow. Props to you guys!

and to continue the nice streak:

Justaregular_joe - the best place to start learning how to build cities is to go to omnibus. there is a wealth of information there on how to build all kinds of citys from starter towns, realistic suburbias, and pretty much anything else you could ever want to know.

good luck and keep playing, posting, and lurking.

    For the roundabouts you need the NAM. After installing it, build a 2x2 square of road. You can then drag road, street, and oneway off of it. The same works with streets. You can also build a 3x3 square of oneways to make a larger roundabout with a space in the middle.

    Okay, perhaps I am too new to the whole forum thing, or perhaps I am more relaxed than others, but... (and this might get me banned), who the heck cares that he was using all caps? I'm sorry, but sometimes people complain about the silliest things. I personally could care less. In fact, last time I checked (and this is universal) CAPS MAKE THINGS EASIER TO READ. This isn't AIM and it isn't shouting.

    Now, returning the point of the post, it does indeed sound like you need the NAM. When you have it installed, you can easily drag the avenue to the highway to trigger an intersection, and/or a merging. Regarding the roundabouts, the NAM readme with tell you how to make them, but simply put:

    Road Roundabouts: create a small 2x2 square. When you start the last leg of thwe 2x2, you will notice that the cursor will change to a half circle (for the roundabout), indicating the result, if you finally plop it. I think 4 roads (streets, avenues, whatever) can come into it without issue.

    One-Way Roundabouts: The only difference here is that you will leave a fill tile unused in the middle of the roundabout (my favorite place for 1x1 items, like Big Ben or a Mayor Statue). Simply create a 3x3 square, instead of the 2x2 for roads.

    Unfortunately, there isn't a roundabout for avenues. However, if you plant an avenue in a 2x2 square, then it looks like a roundabout until to bring a road (etc) into it. It might not be pretty, but it does help to reduces intersection congestion.

    NO CAPS DO QUITE THE OPPOSITE, IN FACT NOT ONLY ARE THEY HARD TO READ BUT THEY ARE ANNOYING BECAUSE IT IMPLIES THAT THE PERSON IS DESPERATLY TRYING TO GET YOUR ATTENTION AND IS USING ANY MEANS NECESSARY TO DO SO. LIKE THE CHILD IN THE MALL THAT TUGS ON HIS MOTHERS ARM AND DRONES "MOMMY MOMMY MOMMY MOMMY MOMMY MOMMY MOMMY MOMMY MOMMY MOMMY MOMMY MOMMY MOMMY MOMMY MOMMY MOMMY MOMMY MOMMY MOMMY MOMMY MOMMY MOMMY MOMMY MOMMY MOMMY MOMMY MOMMY MOMMY MOMMY MOMMY MOMMY MOMMY MOMMY MOMMY MOMMY MOMMY MOMMY MOMMY MOMMY MOMMY MOMMY MOMMY MOMMY MOMMY MOMMY MOMMY MOMMY MOMMY MOMMY MOMMY MOMMY MOMMY MOMMY MOMMY MOMMY MOMMY MOMMY MOMMY MOMMY MOMMY MOMMY MOMMY MOMMY MOMMY MOMMY MOMMY MOMMY MOMMY MOMMY MOMMY MOMMY MOMMY MOMMY MOMMY MOMMY MOMMY MOMMY MOMMY MOMMY MOMMY MOMMY MOMMY MOMMY MOMMY MOMMY MOMMY MOMMY MOMMY MOMMY MOMMY MOMMY MOMMY MOMMY MOMMY MOMMY MOMMY MOMMY MOMMY MOMMY MOMMY MOMMY MOMMY MOMMY MOMMY MOMMY MOMMY MOMMY MOMMY MOMMY MOMMY MOMMY MOMMY MOMMY MOMMY MOMMY MOMMY"

    See. Annoying and hard to read.

    TRUE! Simtropolis is like a Utopia...it scares me a little. I've been to sooo many forums where there are absolutely little rules and no one complains--threads would go off topic so badly, it was funny and entertaining. Simtropolis complains so much about double posting and caps, I mean c'mon, these things happen on accident and there are newbies. Look at the forum rules--how many times has it been view: about 9,000, last I checked. 

    But anyway, I don't want to be bashed for being "off topic" but justareular_joe, you need the NAM

    It's in the Mods and DOwnloads section.

    Have a great time.

    Slyguy3129 i dont think that was needed. However for the future just don't post in caps. And yes you do need the NAM for that.

    It was entirely necessary in order for me to make my point. Thank you for further supporting it with your post.

    Slyguy, that was entirely uneccesary and if you were trying to be funny it's not working. Try somewhere else. And as you can see, the title isn't in caps anymore so your post was all for naught.

    Slyguy3129: ROFL... wow, ever heard of Oedipus? I don't think think I've seen anyone scream Mommy quite like you. Sorry, but your message was just too good to pass up. I'm afraid your point was rather dull.

    EDIT:  Okay, I am now being harsh, as well, and I shouldn't be.  This isn't an important enough issue to argue over.  I have had a bizarre day and my mood isn't so good, so I apologize for instigating this.

    GUYS... that's not the point here. Could you please stop it and come back on topic?

    @justareular_joe: I think everything's been said. Download the Network Addon Modd from the Modds and Downloads section. Read the readme file for further information.
