Are there any toll booths available? I have been revising much of the content in my plugins based on Z's article "Transit Switch Entry Costs and Station Capacities." Then I plopped a maxis toll booth and notice that the capacity is only 600. somehow I think there must be toll booths with more reasonable caps.
I don't know exactly where this falls, I'll just go with this: I am not a fan of toll booths, but know this much that there have been various toll booths made for RHW and NWM available on the stex. But the capacity fitting your needs may be different. I don't know specifically how high the capacity on other tolls has been modified, all I know is there is a tool that allows toll booth's capacity to be modified, at least for custom tolls. I can't remember what, it was sfbt made though.
Thanks j-dub.
The Census Repository Facility (http://sc4devotion.com/forums/index.php?topic=6095.0) also works as a toll booth, and comes in different flavours, depending on the NAM traffic plugin you've got.
I was hoping to use the toll booth to discourage road traffic between cities when there are mass transit alternatives. Silly all those Freight sims driving past the freight-rail station to cross the border. Same with workers. Go to the train 4 heaven's sake.
To prohibit car traffic on the default networks but allow buses through, there is something that exists on the Stex, but I don't remember what it is called. For the RHW, its called HOV (high occupancy vehicle) On YouTube, there is a tutorial for what I just mentioned about building restricted road networks. Don't know if this applies to you, but also out there is no freight truck blockers. Whatever you do, you do not want to hover any puzzle pieces over these blockers once they are built, even the onces made for RHW.
