Well, since you can plant trees through highway tiles, I would expect the answer to be yes.

Yay! More progress!

The ramp looks fantastic!

Dustin (thundercrack), to answer your question, the setup I just showed (with the MIS ramp right next to the RHW-4) will not allow trees in between the RHW and the MIS ramp, unfortunately.  However, once the distance between the MIS ramp and the RHW is increased, it's definitely possible.

In fact, in the early puzzle piece-based prototype I worked up awhile ago (which, as you can see, is very rough looking, if not outright hideous--the new version will look nothing like it ;)), I did a cloverleaf with several buildings inside the open space.



Hope that answers some questions.  The next big thing I have to do on development is getting the diagonals working, after which point things will move rather swiftly. ;)

Actually, Filasimo, prior to leaving ST, Tarkus did talk about teaming up with Blahdy and the Big Dig. Hm, a McDonald's near a highway. That's great. Now hungry/weak-bladdered SimFamilies can get off the highway for a bathroom break and a Big Mac™! $%Grinno$%
Gone now...

Very nice work, Tarkus!

Is there any progress on adding RHW to bridges?

Well, before we move to the next "generation" of the RHW network (MIS system), I just wanted to show what different networks are possible with the current RHW.

Heres are the compressed images.  Follow the links below to see them in FULL RESOLUTION! (1440x900 pixels)

Here we see the RHW in 3 formats.  Divided by one tile (left), undivided (bottom left), and one tile divided multi RHW (right)

And the same area zoomed out.

Here we see an additional RHW with a large median (2 tiles).  Also, the median can be filled in to create a undivided multi RHW (right).

Link (zoomed out): http://img296.imageshack.us/img296/6840/downtownnov313611905059jd2.jpg

Also, I want to say that that cloverleaf shows the flexibility of the RHW quite nicely.  Good luck with the development!

Best,
-Hal.

I'm impressed with both the MIS and what's been done pre-MIS.

And Filasimo, I want those dividers!  ;D

Cheers,

Oh, hmm, is there any way to make sure that RHW procs traffic lights when it intersects with Avenue?

It doesn't need it with road, a stop sign would be nice, but somehow I think it got forgotten in one of the texture packs...

At this time, no it isn't possible to have Traffic lights show up.  But in the future there might be away. ;)

I know that you guys were talking about having merge lanes as long or short as you want, but could you have one of those merge lanes just have a exit only lane to the next offramp? (Very Common in Oregon).
