Roundabout Builder

More than a roundabout builder... some suggestions
I want to use your roundabout builder to build circular cities. There for I have a few suggestions:
1) The tool removes the intersection I click on, even when those roads do not intersect with the newly created roundabout. My suggestion: Only remove those rounds which are intersecting with the roundabout. For me, the inner most intersection is a little cross which is the center of my city. I have to re-add this marker every time I've built a roundabout.
2) Is it possible to select 2-way roads?
3) Some of the one-way-roads I can choose from, appear multiple times in the drop down list.
4) Why use a drop down list at all? Why not use the currently selected road in the road-menu?
5) Please extend the maximum radius to unlimited. Why is there a max. radius at all?
6) Could you use the same units for radius as for the lenghts of the roads? A radius of 40 is about the same as a road of 10 length.

Thanks for your suggestions. I've released an update which addresses some of them
1) Added an option not to remove any roads. Unfortunately the roundabout won't be then connected to anything. Creating intersections would require a bigger change to the algorithm (for which I am now too lazy)
2) Added an option to select two-way roads
3) These are actually different, but you don't see the rest of the name
4) Implemented
5) Extended the max radius from 500 to 3000. Keep in mind that the roundabout doesn't follow terrain, which makes creating large roundabouts quite inconvenient
6) I think it wouldn't be reasonable to change the units now as everyone got more or less used to them

Wow, that is a fast reaction and good service. Thank you for that!

3) I did some debugging. Those are the same roads but for slopes, bridges, tunnels, etc.
5) True... in my case, the levels are all the same.
6) An option might be a "Unit"-dropdown in the configuration section (meter vs tiles).

You made a great tool even greater!

You are welcome :)
For some time I'm planning to at least add an option to follow terrain. We will see...

I didnt see this discussion before posting yesterday, but that sounds exactly like what I need (your mod to do) right now;)) So I fully support a "follow terrain" type of option:)
