Adjust Roads

Overview

Use these tools to create Priority Routes, High Priority Roads, and optimize medium/large Roundabouts.

Usage

The bulk applicators are accessed from the Adjust Roads panel:

Adjust Roads Panel

To open the panel, either:

  • Open the TM:PE Toolbar, then click the road/roundabout you want to customize

    • This only works if none of the TM:PE tools are active; if you are in a tool, exit it first.

  • Or, click the name of the road/roundabout you want to customize

    • This is a shortcut for opening the Traffic Routes Info View info view, then selecting the * Adjust Roads* tab, then clicking the road/roundabout you want to customize :)

To see overlays for more distant roads, scroll the camera towards them. Depending on camera position, you might need to zoom in a little.

You can set the transparency of overlays in General Settings in Settings. When the Adjust Roads panel is closed, overlays will be removed.
