Mini Motorways Part 13 - traffic lights have been buffed! There was a balance update not too long ago that affected the lights, but also brought a greater necessity to them with 3-way intersections getting nerfed. They now may be the most powerful item in the game.

I feel like with the most recent update we do kinda need a wide road variant now, a lot of the time houses just can't keep up with demand when using segregation-related detours, but then using mixed roads inevitably leads to congestion. On second thought increasing the motorway softcap could be an alternative

It's a small difference, feeding from the correct end shortens journeys by a slight amount early game. But cars stop anywhere in the 9 bays and collect the pin, so late game you can feed 2 round dests if the houses / motorway are short enough to keep journey times reasonable. There's a one way circular flow in the car park so cars minimise conflicts

@@sreezonpanchbibi9932 It's more there is a fixed amount of pips per week. If you block business spawns, then the businesses you have have to take on more. Also, if a business is "full" and can't spawn any more pips, it'll "give" that pip to another of the same business color. This is why small businesses seemingly out of nowhere will kill you endgame, it's because a big business has to start pip-dumping on it.

Yes, Traffic lights have become stronger but you woefully underestimated the worth of roundabouts. A roundabout in that upper right corner yellow neighborhood probably would've cleared out the traffic jam in that area very fast. Granted, at that point in the game it was pretty much over anyway, but still.

The lights are somewhat more useful now, but they still help most where heavy fast traffic passes a quiet side road. It can reduce the pins then from a dest. They don't solve problems caused by junctions being too close or having to mix colours and house sources

It looks like they made businesses ramp up after new businesses stop spawning. That's pretty clever. It fixes infinite runs and discourages spawn blocking at the same time. Spawn blocking effectively forces you into the late-game ramping earlier. And no matter how efficient you are, there's a limit on traffic flow through a business itself; ramp demand past that, and it becomes impossible to set up an infinite run.

Where the 2 pink businesses had the 3 way intersection in the middle, you could’ve put in a traffic light because it would’ve just kept all traffic from slowing down. This would be because the bottom left, up right roads would’ve had green light 24/7 since the up left road would’ve only had people turning right on red which is allowed
