  • We’re upgrading a basic diamond interchange with something much more unique and unusual in today’s episode of the Cape Lomond, Cities Skylines 2 series.
    Will this fix traffic or make it worse? Well, I’ll show you how to build this and discuss why I’ve built it in this particular location then give my thoughts on whether you should introduce it to your city build.

    man I struggle so much making circle roads-they always end up wobbly and stupid looking-you make it look so easy

      Snap to existing geometry + snap to right angles. Just follow the guideline at 90 deg and you'll get 2 perfect semi circles to join to make a full ⭕ every time 👍

    Very pretty, and functional. Couple of tips for those two mods: Transform uses axes local to the object you're moving/rotating if you click the asterisk toggle (easier for moving than rotating to be fair); and the Recolour has a colour picker (the dropper icon) that helps when trying to match an in-game colour.
    Nice that Elgendo's coloured surfaces appear to take the texture from below. Might need to download those myself I think...

      Cheers bud. ☺️ Nice tip with the transform tool. Didn't know that was there, super useful! I did try the colour picker at the time but it doesn't pick up the net lane. Yep, the surfaces are worth picking up. Even if your not going to use the normal colours, having the transparent whites and black to amend existing surfaces is pretty useful. ☺️👍

    A great build again!! The only nitpick I could come up with is that as a driver I would love to have a bit of weaving room entering the highway on the busy side, especially comming from that hart turn on the quiet side 😅
    Edit: I rewatched the vid and noticed the original interchanges doesn't have weaving strips either. Crazy 🤯

      Yes! Most likely fairly soon too. I want to get the medium density neighbourhood completed and redesign the messy elements on the industrial side before I'm happy to share. It'll be making it available free for everyone with instructions on mods and settings etc.

      They're actually pretty straightforward, just 2x2 phase traffic lights, people just need to stay in their lane. I think on this interchange the roundabout might cause more issues in fairness 😂 Fun fact, the 1st DDI was built in France 😊👍
