Split up the mod into modules. #83

I think it would be great to have separate mods for pedestrian roads, bus lanes, vehicle restrictions, speed limits and the lane changer.

That way people can choose which modules they need, and the chance that all modules break on update is lower.

joaofarias commented 9 years ago

In the next version, all features will have a toggle option so people can use just what they want. Having it in separate mods is not an option at this point because I'd need a neutral framework to put all the modules together and that's not easy with the current code base.

I actually discussed this a bit with cbethax from Traffic Manager a while ago and we got to the conclusion that we couldn't do something versatile enough for this. If you have any idea on how to make that happen though, I'm all ears.

So it wouldn't be possible to extract the custom roads over into an separate mod? Because that's what I used Traffic++ for in the first place.

boformer commented 8 years ago

That's exactly what they did now:

The roads are now part of NetworkExtensions, and there is a "Traffic++ V2" that only contains the other features.

@boformer Thank you for pointing that out. :smile:
