Cims wait in middle of road for a taxi that will collide with them

[VictorPhilipp]

I've always noticed this trait, even in vanilla, that cims wait for their taxis in the middle of the road.

If you first-person cam a taxi, it's like playing Carmageddon with the taxi hunting down zombie cims to run over.

These cims slow down other traffic, in much the same way pedestrians crossing a road at a crossing slow down traffic.

I perceive two possible solutions:

1. Add blades to the hub caps of vehicles + cim splatter effects = fully Carmageddon-ify C:SL, or...
2. Make cims wait for their taxis on the pavement (or just anywhere else other than standing in the road)

After deleting at least one million of those merry turn around breakers, I'm opting for blades at the hubcaps :D Ok seriously, some state they are using PT for leaving the city, some want to go at some other spots so it is not really sure what transport they are waiting for, but they do, my guess was it is taxi they wait for but I'm not 100% certain about that

I noticed that if a cim is waiting for a taxi near the end (ie. last segment) of a cul-de-sac, they seem to stand on the pavement at the end of the cul-de-sac rather than in the road.

I have also seen that happening multiple times. You should ask the author of the asset to fix the problem. However, I will investigate on what the underlying problem.

This can sometimes be resolved by using the Building Spawn Points mod to fix Taxi spawn point for the building the cim is waiting outside: https://github.com/CitiesSkylinesMods/TMPE/wiki/Cims-wait-for-taxi-in-middle-of-road
