Problem With RHW

[nicebutevil91 2]

I'm having a problem with the RHW in the game. The traffic seams to be moving slower than it should be. The traffic on roads move faster than on the RHW. Is there a solution to it?

I've been using RHW for almost two years, so, I think I can help, are you using any traffic generators or custom vehicles, and how many lanes are on this specific highway?

There are a number of things that could be causing this issue. I think the most likely culprit here is your Automata Tuning Plugin. I've read several reports from folks using the Persistent Automata Mod (by shadowman131 and Jeiman2008), complaining about slow RHW traffic. If you have that installed, find it and remove it and see if that helps.

Custom vehicles or traffic generators will not cause the majority of traffic to move at a snail's pace, though traffic from generator lots does weird stuff on wider RHWs that involve crossover paths.

If that's not the issue, check your RHW stretches with the Route Query. If it is showing that the RHW is being used, you may have an outdated NAM traffic simulator plugin installed. If it is not showing the RHW being used at all, then you have a non-NAM traffic simulator plugin installed--all such plugins will cause RHWs to cease functioning entirely, though some ambient automata not generated from traffic may still use it.
