May we proudly present the latest offspring of the NAM: the Canal Addon Mod (CAN-AM, because 3-letter acronyms are running out).
This mod will make it possible to upgrade your eye-candy canals to fully functional transit waterways!

The first set contains a few puzzle pieces, based on SimGoober's canal set, of which a few pieces are shown here with euro-textures installed:



With these, you can make functional transit canals, that allow waterbus and freight traffic. The overpass pieces connect to road, oneway-road and avenue, so you can build like this:



or this:



And you can even make neighbor connections:



Finally, here's a little animation from a dedicated tester (can you guess who?) of how this looks ingame:



The CAN-AM, coming soon to a NAM near you!

Several ferry and freight terminals will be provided shortly after the first release.
1. Install SC4+RH
2. Install LEX (CD&DVD helps) and latest NAM + updates
3. Play the game
4. ? ? ? ?
5. Profit!

Oh my, not something I think I would ever use but absolutely glorious and inventive nonetheless! &idea

The ingenuity of the SC4 community never ceases to amaze me. ;D ;D
...this space to be filled soon...

superb, again i would also probably never use this with that particular canal set, personal preference and all but truly stellar performance.
NAM + CAM + RAM + SAM, that's how I roll....

I'm posting frm my PDA so i can't see the images (although i'm sure i could find a way to make them show up) but this seems like a very innovative new tool. I probably won't have much use for it sadly, but i always say that any new capability in the game is a great thing!

EDIT from computer: Now that i can see the images this is NOT BAD. I really must find out how the route-query shows up as freight trucks and buses, when the automata on the canals are clearly not freight trucks, but freighter barges and ferries. Have you somehow invented a new automata type or something?
My days here are numbered. It's been great and I've had a lot of fun, but I've moved on to bigger and better things.

What an absolutely marvelous idea... The creativity and genius of this community never ceases to amaze! I can see a grand return of canals to many cities.
