Toggle Traffic Lights

Description
Note: Toggling traffic lights is possible with Traffic Manager: President Edition. Version 11.0[github.com] even added the option to disable traffic lights.
That means TM has basically every feature of Toggle Traffic Lights -- while offering a lot of additional stuff. Therefore I recommend to use Traffic Manager: President Edition over this mod. Additional TTL hasn't been updated for quite a while, whereas TM is updated quite often (including new features!).


Tool to remove or add traffic lights at junctions. With Cities:Skylines patch 1.7.0 (Mass Transit)[forum.paradoxplaza.com] that functionality was directly included into the game. But Toggle Traffic Lights provides functions beyond of C:S:
  • Access the Junction Tool directly from the Roads Menu.
  • Activate and Deactivate the Junction Tool everywhere. Disabling the Intersection Tool restores the previous used tool.
  • Remove (or add or reset) all traffic lights at once.

A more detailed description can be found on GitHub: https://github.com/Craxy/ToggleTrafficLights


Usage
Enable Junction tool via:
  • Button in roads menu.
  • Ctrl+T. Opens Roads Menu.
  • Ctrl+Shiftt++T. Keeps current location. Remembers current tool and restores it when you press the shortcut again.
  • Ctrl+Alt+T. Opens Traffic Routes Junctions Info View. Remembers current tool.
Use the Elevation keys (PageUp and PageDown) to change the view: Overground, Overground with tunnels visible, Underground (Info View, everything's painted in white). Doesn't work with the built-in C:S Traffic Routes Junction tool (Ctrl+Alt+T). This uses the default C:S tool without changes.


Batch commands:
Located in the (C:S built-in) Traffic Routes Junctions Info Window. Besides opening that window via the Info View Menu on the top left you can use the shortcut Ctrl+Alt+T (see above) or right click on the TTL button in the roads menu.


Disable Traffic Lights:
When the checkbox is checked new junctions are always created without traffic lights.
Existing Traffic Lights aren't touched by this option. Neither does it prevent manual toggling of traffic lights. All it does is ensure all newly created junctions don't have traffic lights.
The Setting is located in the Traffic Routes Junctions Info Tab.

Note:This is set on a per savegame basis and is not a global setting! That means you can play one map with this option enabled (-> no traffic lights for new junctions), while on another map you use the default C:S behavior.



Note: Previous saved traffic lights via TTL (prior to Mass Transit patch) are discarded. The new version uses the C:S built-in way to save Traffic Lights.

Found it, thanks :)

Ensure TTL is enabled in the content manager.

Then in game: Click on the road icon to start building roads. On the left besides the road other road option (upgrade road, straight, curved, free-form road) should be the TTL button.



But: you might want to use the Traffic Manager mod instead: That mod can toggle lights too -- but has quite a lot additional features.

Where's the button in the roads menu? I don't see any changes.

@Craxy Yes I found it in the content manager and activated it, but ingame were no function.
I saw the TM Mod but I like to play with less mods possible and search for specific features and TM has too much of them. But thanks for your help.

Sorry about that. But TTL should work with the current C:S version (just tested it).
Is TTL enabled in "Content Manager" -> "Mods"? Can you access the TTL options in the Content Manager? Do any errors occur?


PS: To toggle traffic lights you don't need a mod: "Info Views" -> "Traffic Routes" -> "Junctions".
PS²: You might want to use Traffic Manager instead of TTL: TM contains every feature of TTL (like removing all lights), AND can do a lot more.
