Toll Booth Problem

[ryanhamaty 0]

Just want to know something, i have connected a single road to my neighbouring city, after awhile trafiic was mad and the road was red with the query tool, to fix the problem i converted the road to an avenue.....to make some extra cash as i was making 500 loss a month a put in a toll booth.

The problem is that no cars use that road anymore and it is the only road connected to my neighbouring city and i have no job signs over my whole residential area now.....

Did i maybe not connect the avenue correctly? cause it looks like there is no problem....I have the nam installed...

It is a fairly new region and city.....could that maybe be the cause....i.e to early for sims to pay toll fees...

Any form of input would be appreciated.

Best Regards,

Ryan

Are there orange arrows where the Avenue leaves? there should be for a connection.

Have you looked in the neighbouring city, is the Avenue there?

yes, both city's......i have no idea what the problem could be

take away th toll and see if it fixs itself

Check the paths;

Press Ctrl and X together while in a city.

Type (Drawpaths) without the parentheses.

Now, a bunch of arrows should be scribbling all over your map, and check on the avenue you're having problems with. Do the paths go all the way to the border? Or do they stop at the toll booth? If they stop at the toll booth, drag the avenue again and it should fix the pathing.

To hide the paths, press Ctrl and X, then type (Hidepaths) without the parentheses.

Be sure to do this in both cities.

Your problem may be that you put the toll too close to border. If it's within two squares of the border, check the pathing; the toll booth could've cut off the avenue, even if it says it's connected.

I'm always glad to help!

Drawpaths isnt cheating, its just a way of diagnosing wether a part of a transportation network isnt working properly

I had issues with placing tollbooths directly on the border of my city. I had to place it some squares before. Think I ended up moving 5 squares from the edge just for safety. I didn't experiment extensively, it just seemed the neighbor connection was destroyed by placing a tollbooth at the very edge.

Your sims will always try to find another route before using the tool booth one. If you put toll booths at all the exits, they'll be forced to use one.

Try Dragging the avenue through the Toll both once more if you haven't already

This part enables the tollboth to be pathed
