I say thank  Badsim which learned me how to make this kind of transition.

Good day. 

For information:
00 -no connection         
01 -sloped connection-to the left
02 -straight connection
03 -sloped connection-to the right
04 -shared median

Useful tutorial, thanks a lot!

If you want to avoid having that huge 10×10 lot function as a station that people will be shortcutting while walking, driving cars or driving buses, you want to read this post and a few posts down from it:

I also think you should specifiy 02 for the flags in rep 15 in all cases below (instead of 01 or 03):
Thanks Jonathan for correcting me!

Great tutorial, Earth Quake

Tage, 02 is for connections that go orthogonal.
While 01 and 03 (contrary to the description in the SC4Tool) are for diagonals, it's exactly the same in RULs.

It's good I've never tried to make diagonal TE lots then...

Thank you Warrior.

Excellent presentation and really useful information in your tutorial 


We need more like this one

Just out of curiosity , how would avenue work? I've tried a few times but get no connection.

I didn't knew this was possible. Thanks, man!

@sithlrd98: I think that the numbers should be like this:
Left tile: 0 0 3 1
Middle tile: 1 3 3 1
Right tile: 1 3 0 0

[Jonathan]

Btw, Can I wikify this, please ?

Jonathan

[sithlrd98]

Thanks mrtnrln , unfortunately it didn't work. Either I did something wrong (repeatedly) or those aren't the correct values. I even looked at the Rul files , that is until my eyes went cross

Does anyone else have any ideas?

Using a 2x2 Lot that I have found in files that I have downloaded, here's what I have for transit-enabling for the tiles:

1 2
3 4

1 = 01030103
2 = 00030100
3 = 01000003
4 = 01030103

The diagonal Avenue is running NW to SE through this lot. You will have to make adjustments to match your Lot(s) alignment of the diagonal Avenue. These values should work for any 2 tile network that is running diagonally through the Lot. It may also work for double diagonal networks, such as two Roads that are running side by side diagonally and are sharing tiles.

I have a question about the simcity4 tool...

How did you get the picture to show in the visual TE editor? In my sc4 tool, all it says is that the picture/thumbnail was not found :angrymore:I have to memorize the lot before I go into the sc4tool. It's really messed and I don't know whats wrong. May someone help me. please...
