Lights on Highways
Okay So ilove seeing the lights at night but is there too much? Is it over board? I think yes. I would like to see lights only on highways with sounds barriers and bridges. TOo much lighting for a full highway length. Maybe have an option or mod to toggle of lights for sections of roads?

Right now it's strictly on or off for an entire asset, based on placeable lights.

So a modder would probably have to make duplicates of every piece of road type, without lights - Unless of course someone finds a clever fix.

Around here, (Southern US) all of our highways have that many lights.

Interstate would like a word, Rhedd. And no - Most roads outside of city limits do not have lights. At least not after a mile or two.

A tool, similar to the road upgrade tool, that adds/deletes lights for a specific section of road would be greatly appreciated. :)

Where I live there are lights on almost every road outside of cities

Autobahnen don't have any lights in real life!

Belgium is the odd country out as I understand from the previous thread. UK, US, Denmark (and so on) do not. It's a waste of power anyway.

In Finland we have light on the highways as well. I've only been to 1 part of the USA--Washington state, and there were lights along the highways there. It's a lot safer than dark highways where deer and other animals are difficult to spot.

UK has motorway lights near important or large junctions/intersections. It is only the stetches of road away from these that is sometimes unlit. Usually if the motorway is passing through countryside.

Like I said - Not lit everywhere. Or even the majority.

I have to agree when it comes to german Highways outside of the city limits ...
there are just the lights of the cars themselves.

Differently for Autobahn passages within city limits however

Would love to be able to toggle lights on all roads, seeing paved roads have lights when all they go to is small little village in the hills doesn't make sense (small paved roads without a curbside would be nice too for all those rural areas...). Some dirt roads can have lights as well for safety, just not worth paving them.
