8-Way Roundabout

Description
*****PLEASE DOWNLOAD NEW VERSION! It has been updated to fix the many issues with this interchange.*****


Requires Mass Transit DLC. All roads add and subtract lanes, thus utilizing 2 & 4 lane highways.

An 8-way interchange roundabout.
Each direction has 2 slip lanes to handle immediate change to the next 2 right directions. A sunken roundabout handles the last 4.

Suggested Mods:

-Node Controller

-Intersection Marking Tool
https://gtm.steamproxy.vip/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2140418403

-TM:PE is for the roundabout.
-Node Controller is to help the lane split junctions look better.
-Intersection Marking Tool is because the game should already come with this anyway and it truly finishes the interchange and your entire city perfectly with such small detail.

Does this interchange actually make sense with real-world logic? No.
Would there ever be a chance that this makes sense to build in the center of a city? Absolutely not.
Is it perfect for aesthetic builders and for a game that can be based on fantasy and isn't 1:1 scale? You bet your britches!

I personally love to over-engineer everything in my cites, so let me know how this works for you, and I'd love to see pictures.

Dirt roads were left behind from the framework that allows such symmetry. This is intended for those that would like to add rail of multiple kinds in between the highways.

When using Node Controller, all junctions use (25) to smoothen out the edges. Terrain will need to be smoothened too.

Hi dude, Awesome interchange.
I'd love to test it out as part of my interchange testing series but I've downloaded it and I'm afraid to say it has some big performance problems. I can go through some of them if you want to try and improve it before I give it a proper test.
Firstly, your shortcuts to the immediate right are never going to see much action because traffic in C:S tries to take the shortest route, not in terms of distance, but in terms of number of road segments, so, a lot of traffic is going to try to get on the roundabout and then off straight away at the next exit! I'd have the right turn shortcuts outside the roundabout.
The next big problem and it's one that I made (a lot) is having only a single lane for getting onto the roundabout. The free space on the roundabout tends to come around in clumps and getting multiple vehicles onto the roundabout at a time can really improve traffic flow.
I could go on, but let me know what you think so far.

Holy cow that's big -- what is it, 200x200 or something?
