Description
This is a mod for detailers.
It can be found under assets in the madHatter category

There was a 'curb' mod in TPF1 that let you lay curb stones all over any area you wanted to protect from the AI.

This is my take on the theme.

The mod allows you to protect areas from the AI.
When you place assets more often than not collision detection is turned off.
This is great for creating nice detail but the AI will build all over your assets as if they weren't there.

Picture 1 shows a protected area in the centre of town after the map had run on two years
Picture 2 shows the types of markers
Picture 3 shows a set of 4 markers (circled in red) connected by invisible barriers (yellow lines) the AI will not build inside.


This mod will let you place markers either individually or in a line or in a square.
A single marker will just protect the point at which it is placed.
Two markers placed as a set will create an invisible barrier between them.
Four markers placed as a set will protect the area contained.

There are 5 marker choices - Brick Pillar, Bollard 1, Bollard 2, Tree, Bush

Each marker can be placed full size or half size

The markers can be placed in 3 patterns
. A single marker
- A set of 2 markers
# A set of 4 markers

Each set has 4 area sizes, size 1 is about the same as a small house

You can move the marker / marker sets up and down using the ,. keys.

most important mod for TpF2. Would be nice if there was an invisible or more discreet variant for detailing areas, for example the trees one is nice but it would be better if it only had the corners / nodes.

Thank you. Now I can stop the AI from building things I don't want.

I only found this mode today.!!! I have trouble with AI building over assets that are detailed. Just last few days, I have a Large London area spread over two banks of water, this for me being the Thames. I just been easing in the excellent Kings Cross Station into the North part of London I aptly named Islington. However after putting down flag stones outside the front entrance,which has lots of space for station assets. But soon found three huge buildings had been built over it wiping out the front entrance. So I am hoping this mod will put a stop to that, I found it by trolling Utube and finding a video on how to stop AI building over your assets. So Im off to try it now. Wish me luck or my residents will be complaining soon :steamthis:

Excellent work. If only you could fix the traffic lights.... :-)

The description of how it works is good enough, but it would be nice for people to know where to find it.
I was about to give up on finding it, but then I noticed your name on one of the icons in the asset menu. Madhatter... A black top hat. The asset is called 'Posts' and is described as 'Boundery Markers'
Could you please ad that to your description of the mod :)

The mod has a small 'bug' easily correctable. When selecting 'bush' in 'line' mode (-), only the second bush appears, the first (cursor position) neither appears nor is drawn on the map, although it does collide when putting more...

I was thinking we need something like a zoned area so for example if you place a station then you could mark an area around it for future expansion so that you don't have to spend 5 million dollars to delete buildings and roads just to expand! I was searching the workshop before posting because I think it's stupid when people post without at least doing several searches first to try to see if their is already a mod. I searched for 5 minutes trying various keywords. I was about to post when I finally found this. This might be what I was looking for. I will try it and let you know.
