Discussion thread: Junctions management overhaul #5

Closed kianzarrin closed 3 years ago

kianzarrin commented 4 years ago

This is a discussion threat for #2 #3 #4. Since these are all junction operations there may be a need for a new mod called Junction Skins or Junction Manager or something. Or should I just merge this with TMPE/Network skins. TMPE does not deal with textures. Network skins deals with segments not junctions or segment ends.

Test it in little mods maybe, but ultimately it will evolve to something that the pathfinder (and AIs?) needs to know about IMO. There's a whole boat load of stuff that can be done to junctions.

For example: Virtual Junctions - various crazy pedestrian crossings, bike waiting areas at traffic lights, traffic lights dedicated to pedestrian crossings, etc.

Then we get to stuff like lane customisation - not so much about junctions management, but closely related I think. So you posted this image in one of the issues linked in OP:

We could make the superfluous lanes 'striped' and not accessible to vehicles, for example. Or turn them in to parking lanes or some other crazy stuff.

This could also be part of the junction manager: https://youtu.be/45zxp8yeSwg?t=338
