    Traffic Circles

    At the north end of Kingsport there is a traffic circle with a monument in it. I tried to create this from 4-lane, 20meter, 90 degree pieces which would have been a little large but when I closed the circle, TSRE burped to desktop. Then I remembered that I had created a traffic circle (static i.e.) for the Nterminal route (Nashville, TN terminal) which I am using in part of at least 4, possibly 5 routes and so I copied those objects over to the new Kingsport Sub. route and see attached for the result. This is a little undersize, and since this is a common problem, I may go back into TSM and make a couple more, larger in size. If I do, I'll upload them to the library. The other two roads leading into the circle are 2-lane.

    Yep, creating the circular RDB node will indeed barf. If linked the 90's to a tee piece, that would break up the nodes. You'd also need an equal length tee at the top of the circle making it more of a traffic oval....

    If you like what you see here at Trainsim.com, be it the discussions and knowledge in the forums, or items available in our library, I hope you'll consider a paid membership to help support keeping the site operating.... Thanks!
