Traffic behaviour changed, possible side effect (race conditions)
Hi again!
Was wondering one thing. I have removed all traffic lights in my city because I felt the traffic went smoother. I use Traffic++ and have "Car Despawn Disabled". When I installed this mod, at several of my intersections the cars got stuck. Basically everyone tried a left turn and got stuck in the middle. A race condition so to say =)

Without this mod, the cars kind of "Work their way through", not by despawning but just forcing their way though thus avoiding the situation of getting stuck in all left turns.

I could of course fix the race condition by adding traffic lights or replacing some intersections with roundabouts but liked to be able to remove all traffic lights.

Is this behaviour intentional with this mod or is it a side effect? Was just curious since it is written: "Make it much harder for traffic to despawn" but does not say that the actual driving mechanics are changed, which it seems to be, or perhaps has disabled "Improved AI" from traffic++.

Also, I understand you might not continue to further develop this mod, which of course is a huge bummer =(, but may I suggest splitting the mod into several smaller mods? Or give greater flexability in the options menu?

Thx for a great mod anyhow =D and take care whatever you decide to do ;)
