I Am Looking For: (Do you have the link?)

I hope this is ok to post or if its already a folder about the topic, please let me know and I will close this one)

If you are looking for a specific lot, ploppable, road, utility, etc but cant find it, post your 'want list' and maybe someone has run across it in Exchange and post a link to your response.

For starters:

I am looking for a ploppable road connector that changes the graphic of a ploppable or growable bldg, parking lot, etc to the effect where a vehicle on the road actually drives into the ploppable. Example: The Flying Pig Sugar Shacks has this effect. After plopping it into the game, cars can turn into the ploppable's 'lot'

Is there a ploppale connection that allows this feature to other tiles or ploppables? if not , any suggestions for othr ploppables that include this feature?

Well, I'm not an expert on this sort of thing, but the description for the download states: "The three shacks all have transitory street access, however, the FP Shack was lotted specifically for transitions between SAM asphalt and SAM dirt track." Whether or not that means you can transition to regular roads or avenues, I don't know. Have you seen that happen? You might want to ask this question in the Modding forum.

I believe you will want to bookmark this link and use it for questions like this. There are more people interested in this specific area over there.

To allow vehicles to drive onto a lot, it must be 'transit enabled'. To do this, you must use the SC4 Tool available here: [link].

Included in the tool is a transit editor. This allows you to add special properties to certain tiles on a lot. In game, you can then build transit networks (e.g. streets, roads) over the defined area, as shown from your posted image. It also has options for one-way roads, avenues, and highways.

A tutorial on how to do this can be found here: [link].

    Thanks Mr. Moose, that looks more like disscussions between developers and such. I am no developer but just looking for a particular lot or ploppable located in ST/Exchange within simtropolis' downloadables. Does that discussion double as a meeting area for developers and they don't mind noobies like me asking where to get a downloadable id like to have?

    Or is there already a discussion that's not a developer oriented folder but like a 'wish list' type discussion? I will go ahead and post over there and see my results.

    Thanks everyone else for your suggestions too!
