Re: Modding Q&A

After adding a city and seeing it displayed on the map correctly, how do I get to add the new city name to signs? My new city doesn't appear in the list of places when I check the properties of a sign, but it definitely exists in the game. I've been looking in the files but can't find any additional...

Re: Questions about signs

I would like to make signs too (for the UK) as the template signs are too 'simple' and don't allow enough destinations, I would like to make my own bigger signs to accommodate more than two places, and I also want to build proper roundabout signs.

A-Road Roundabouts for UK?

Roundabouts are common in the UK on A roads (often a single carriageway) however I'm struggling to find any 1 x 1 roundabouts for the UK (need them to be specific to the UK for the road markings to be correct, is that right or is there a way to use general european roundabouts?) The 2 x 2 roundabout...

Re: Modding Q&A

If you are editing the Germany map directly then I believe it should appear in your Documents folder location under /mod/user_map/map/germany/ (or at least in the user_map folder somewhere). There should be several files generated by the map editor in the folder where it is located. Hint: To test it...

Re: Going from dual carriageway to single carriageway in the UK

When placing a new prefab, you can change the Origin (location of the red node) ;) Very useful info, thanks! I think it would be a smart idea to plan your road first. Place it, with all bends and height differences, in the void. To see how much space it'll take, where you can have more scenery etc....

Going from dual carriageway to single carriageway in the UK

I want to extend an existing road (originally it went nowhere, a blocked route), I tried adding a dual to single narrowing prefab (UK) but it had the red/green nodules the wrong way around, how can I make them switch positions? I did set the left hand drive option, that looks fine. What's the best w...

Re: Modding Q&A

Simple question: Where do I start as a newbie? To start off with I'd like to add a road that leads to a town with at least one industry, I started adding a road but for some reason my editor now has a purple car that I can't even select and some telegraph poles that have become disconnected and I do...

Hello from an aspiring map modder

I'm initially here to learn the best way to add roads and functional towns to the base Europe map, specifically the UK. I'd like to acquire the skills necessary to add a couple of main roads in Yorkshire (where there is basically nothing north of Sheffield) and a couple of small towns / cities. I al...
