i tried asking tat very question a little note fat chance your going to get an answer i tried making an eight laned avenued but nobody would even tel me what i needed

i see your logic mrfingers however i have an annoying habit of having flat land maybe i sould start with differnt terrains like hills i am not very good at building around terrrain

this is a rubbishy map of my town the highways are disused te rail is disused and the light blue bit is congested maximally which is somewhat good only the blue roads (highway) close to the light blue bit have any traffic on them however those mindwrentchingly stupid sims(god bless 'em) insist on taking little country roads packed with junk and cars and little bits of paper instead of a big fat highway i must thank microsoft fo the paint program without it i don't know what i would do

my hometown is really comfusing but i have tried all kinds of ringroads but none of them are used do you mean i should have radial routes instead of orbital routes

What is the best highway layout? i currently know all of my ringroas do not work at all

i lay it all out in ground highways then medium density means elevated

ive tried spiraling one avenue and making the transportation go directly downtown that worked for a while

i think it's pylons in the middle of the water and want high-tension pole like in SC3000 rather than pylons just sticking out the water but i hate those yellow things too

i find once i get more than 50,000 then the population skyrockets so be very careful or you end up with cities like mine congested, congested, congested, and maybe a litlle more congested and your sruggling to school everyone and treat everyone and arrest everyone and house everyone and give them jobs i find commercial gives more jobs per square once in medium density so scrap industry after you run out of space unless you are on a large tile my best city has medium crime terrible traffic average everything else and 620,000 people on a medium tile usually you wait have lots of neighbour connections as may as possible and of rail,monorail,el rail,subway and road and leave some room for highways and seaports and any cap relief then have it bearing in mind you can afford it

can you write a tutorial on how to create automata/cars etc. for dummies like me i have searched the whole internet and it has proved fruitless so make an automata creating modeling skinning tutorial

other people can easily post their cities as well and you might see them

i usually end up with a masonry type grid but i make big blocks and then have streets fanning to fill the block in does that count i'm useless with highways mines' cut through the city and go round the CBD round to the other side but they are never used ever

oh i hate making links
