Yeah, it's a problem with the road spawning algorithm, because currently highways only spawn as a replacement for roads.
@codemime could you comment this, as you a person who really familiar this mapgen system?
@illi-kun The issue is pretty much actual. I'd confirm what @i2amroy said two and a half years ago, but add that they are bugged as hell. The current mapged is supposed to replace "double roads" with highways, but it doesn't. I tried to spawn them manually (as an alternative connections), but "nothing"
was spawned instead.
I'm gonna fix highways in a later PR. I have an idea of adding "weights" to roads: each time the pathfining algorithm uses a road, it increments its weight. When all of the overmap roads are finished, those that exceed a weight threshold, would turn into highways.
EDIT: I still explore and "learn" our mapgen. I wouldn't say I'm familiar with it yet.
This is something that has bugged me when messing around with the debug mode. I always saw highway tiles, but no actual highways
Earlier versions had some highways. Version 0.A theoretically still has highways (the overmap tiles are still in), but apparently they never appear on the overmap anymore.
