I don't think that's right. If you watch carefully, it is the moment that 4-way intersection is created that suddenly all the traffic starts going the other route. At that moment, the right turn for that intersection is a deadend. It's almost as if putting in another road forced an update of the entire network and then all of a sudden, agents realised the new route. Put another way, before that 4-way is created, vehicles are still piling onto the dirt road whenever they can. As soon as the 4-way is created, yet no new route is created, no one takes the dirt road anymore. Doesn't seem logical to me... Hmm, youre right, that does look pretty weird. Not much else i can think of that could be causing that then. They did say theyre still working on it, so lets hope the actual fix is even better than this video. Still, its an improvement over the current situation.

Crude oil is worth nowhere near 12k per 1k though, more like 4.5k per 1k. Atleast, its been that way for me since the start. Are you sure you havent put down a different storage lot and put the wrong resource on export?

PieceOfMind, i think they still preferred the dirt road because the avenue heading to the left was a pretty large arch to the left. When he adds the 2nd avenue to the right the traffic immediately prefers that road because its only slighty longer and a much higher density. It might not be the best fix possible, but im happy to see theyre atleast looking into it. Ill take anything over the current grid locks + unused roads.

No I think what he means is that you DON'T export/import, and untick the local deliveries. If you do this only oil when come in to the trading depot and no oil will go out! Once filled, turn it off, repeat for additional depots and finally turn them all on at once to maximize trading. Actually, dont untick the local deliveries, this will prevent your oil wells from delivering the oil to your trade depots. Just put it on "Use locally" and it will stockpile the oil because you dont have any building using up your oil, unless you have an oil powerplant. I unlocked the first Petroleum HQ upgrade this morning with the following: 3 completely upgraded trade depots with 4 trucks each and only oil storage, filled to the top with crude oil 2 completely upgraded oil wells with 4 trucks each, 10 pumps each Make sure there arent any traffic jams at your highway entrance ( dont build too much residential, you make money from the oil anyway ) otherwise your delivery trucks get blocked from selling the oil on the global market. Dont use your Petroleum upgrade to buy the commerce division, you can build a Trade HQ instead with a Petroleum division once you get enough daily profit to get the trade port with upgrades, which is easy enough once you get the oil refinery and start making fuel. @nheowie: I havent encountered the train delivery bug yet so im afraid i cant help with that. Are you sure you built the trade port upgrade freight station and not the passenger train station? And did you select to export the oil ? I hope this helps you guys out
