They would continuously adapt to real time traffic conditions and see which ones worked best to keep wait times down.Īccording to the simulations, the best artificial intelligence patterns could improve traffic flow by 10 to 15 percent. It experimented with different light-changing patterns. Science wizardry was then used to train a machine-learning based computer algorithm. The setup recorded the number of vehicles waiting for the light to change, the amount of time each of them had to wait and the average speed a vehicle drove through the intersection.

Jalopnik reports: One of the partners in the study with an aggressively German name - the Fraunhofer Institute for Optronics, System Technologies and Image Exploitation - recently installed high-resolution cameras and radar sensors at a busy intersection with a traffic light in the city of Lemgo, according to New Atlas. If you mess up a junction or whatever when playing around with it, an easy reset which works 9/10 times (not quite always) is to upgrade the roads affected then upgrade them back.A new study out of Germany says having traffic lights use AI technology may keep traffic flowing faster and smoother. Also listed in the sidebar mod list here. It's a really good mod with a lot of key features for effective traffic management btw, and one of the most popular mods for this game (top 20 most subscribed). Well, a few might cross there as they will cross anywhere if the alternative isn't realistic - using your pedestrian bridge is a much longer route in comparison. Basically I think pedestrians who have already loaded that as their route will continue to cross, but new ones wont.


This will not remove the texture, because it's part of the road texture itself.Īfter you set it to disallow the crossing, it takes a few minutes before the rules update or whatever. If there's a crosswalk, the game sees it as a junction. Select "junction restrictions" then click on the junction for the option to disable the crosswalk.
