Changelog
- Tweaked the car AI. Throughout the game's development I've been caught between two crowds. One crowd wants cars to behave realistically and not crash, the other likes a more arcadey AI that can be exploited to produce very visually pleasing but very unrealistic solutions to levels. I've tweaked things so that hopefully both crowds will still be happy. Cars now spawn with a regular cadence and also the drivers will be less careful when pulling out into junctions. This will mean your existing solution will give different scores but the score ceiling for nearly every level should be higher.
- Added WASD road marking placement controls. If you press a WASD key over a tile you will add/remove that direction of arrow to the tile. Merge markings can be placed by holding the "backwards direction" WASD key and then pressing another "side" key depending which side you want the merge on. So if you are hovering over a north facing road marking, you would hold "S" and the press "A" to place a merge on the left side. I'll put out a proper tutorial for this soon but I just want to iron out any bugs before I do that. (Also, this allows you to modify road marking that are under traffic lights without deleting the traffic light!)
- Reworked Youturn. The new AI made the old Youturn trivial to solve. I added a couple of trees to make things more interesting.
- Dev and Andy scores have been updated to account for the change in car AI.
Apologies for the delay in getting this update out, I was and still am very busy with working on my next game!
GRIDROAD is a traffic optimisation simulation game. Build roads, place roadsigns and tweak traffic lights to build the most efficient traffic junction!
Remember that time you were stuck in traffic for the umpteenth time at that idiotically designed junction? Remember how you swore you could have designed a better intersection in your sleep? Well look no further, GRIDROAD is the game for you!
GRIDROAD is under active development and new features/content will be added frequently!
