How to change from left hand drive to right hand drive

[Schneider]

Ok, so reading through the forum I cant find a way to change once you select left hand drive. I mistook left hand rive for driving on the left hand side. I want my cars to be driving on the left hand side and I cant see a way to turn this back. I have seen posts where people say its under the map.... yes it is the first time you start the game up but I cant find how to change this setting back? :(

Try going into options/settings. I'm pretty sure you can toggle the option there.

The option to set LHD/RHD is in the load screen for every new map and only there, it cannot be reset once you've started that map. If you forgot to do so, then either carry on or bite the bullet and start afresh.

It's on the map selection (underneath the picture) when starting a new game

You can't change it on an already started save.

You can change it on an existing save, but it's a bit fiddly.

1. Load your city and pause the game
2. Open the scene explorer (Ctrl+E)
3. Find "SimulationManager"
4. Look for "m_metaData" and set the "m_invertTraffic" field to 'true' for left hand or 'false' for right hand.
5. Save the game (under new file name)
6. Exit to desktop, then relaunch and load that save

After loading the save the traffic will freak out a bit and then they'll start going in the opposite direction to what they were before.

Hey, that's awesome aubergine - thanks heaps!

(I also had to re-launch the game after subscribing and enabling Mod Tools to get Ctrl+E to work. A quick google sorted that but thought I'd mention it here :) )

I tried this to help out with LHD screenshots for assets and it fubar'd my whole city, buildings became abandoned, services failed to respond in time and population is dropping like a lead weight, i think most of the damage occurred because of all the lane changes i did with TM:PE not sure if clearing the traffic as soon as you load it up helps but is something to bare in mind if anyone else attempts it on a working city, i make regular backups of my saves and save with a new name every time , so no real damaged done to my save but others should be aware.
