Red Box Road for transport through hazardous areas!

[CommanderABab]

To the update for beta 334/335

There are five versions of the road for now until "frames animation fg indices" game code works completely.
If you have beta version 333, you are welcome to download this for your personal use.

Red Box Road

I recommend using the open end version to build with. You may then go over stretches without intersections with the walled or barriered versions through your hazardous terrain. You may dig tunnels if you need to, but the road's roof will protrude through the ground or other roads above.

Yes, it turned quite extensive for such a simple thing:)

Next beta or two and I should be able to shrink it.

[CommanderABab]

One thing to keep in mind: no transfer to it. Because of the walls

[CommanderABab]

I have several questions:
1) Are those tunnels provided by road animation?
2) Can you make something like street lights with that?
3) Does a high speed needed?

1. No, the tunnels are just the normal red road tunnels . They just use a negative bridge height, reduced bridge graphics and opposite to normal ramps.

2. Sure.

3. No. Feel free to reduce speed.

[CommanderABab]

I have a problem
When I try to change the speed, game gives me plug-in error.
Can you please send here edited version with 3 speed?

With speed of 3.2:

Update for 334 coming up. I have to trim the .json file. You can now build a bridge atop the red box road (not the tunnel) and the graphics won't come poking through.

Wow, it's really impressive. I wouldn't have thought something like this would be possible

In case you want to show your road in front of others you might give "ordinal":0 a try.

[CommanderABab]

I'm going to leave in the walled version, the open version, and a new dizzy version. Plus the slow one for former member

I left all IDs the same, but hid a couple so that they are no longer in the menu.

Instructions:
download it if you like,
if you sucessfully unzip it:
remove the previous red box road folder from your plugins folder.
Choose the fast (50) or slow (3) folder, but not both!
Copy your choice to your Theotown/plugins folder.
Enjoy!

Legacy IDs were not updated, so will have no roof on connected sections like the Dizzy version.
I didn't just remove the IDs so that your traffic wouldn't be disrupted.



Feel free to download and enjoy for your personal use only!

Stopped being cool though after the water drawing system was changed.
