Unlimited Outside Connections Revisited 1.1

Description


Resurrected!

BloodyPenguin's original Unlimited Outside Connections mod is no longer functioning as of the 1.15 (Plazas & Promenades) game update. The changes required to fix this were more than simple tweaks, and this mod has been resurrected to carry on the functionality.



Place as many roads and railways with outside connections as you want in-game or in MapEditor.
Simply select the network you want to make the connection with, and build it across the map edge (either from the map outwards, or from outside the map inwards).

Reaching the map edge
Obviously, you'll need a mod that enables you to build to the map edge (this mod won't do that on its own), such as 81 Tiles 2.

Use with the Network Anarchy mod to add outside connections using roads that don't normally connect to the outside.

Network Anarchy
Make sure that Network Anarchy is set to 'default' mode (not forcing ground/elevated/bridge/tunnel) when making outside connections, otherwise they won't work. Outside connections are a special type of road 'elevation' and the tool needs to be free to select that automatically (and not overriden by anarchy).

Ship and airplane paths
This mod also lifts the limit on these (use Find It to access the networks themselves in-game), but be aware that new airplane connections placed in-game may behave strangely, so be careful.

Safe to unsubscribe at any time; this mod doesn't modify savegames (note, though, that if you've created more than four connections of any type the game won't like it unless you're running either this mod or the original).

Credit where credit is due
Huge thanks to BloodyPenguin, the author of the original mod!





This mod uses Harmony[github.com] version 2.2 by Andreas Pardeike via the Cities Harmony mod by boformer.

I have activated it, but there is no effect in the game. Do I need to unlock the 81 tiles using a mod for it to work?

@Fraud. Can you share a screenshot and more details of how you have fixed this? I have the same problem

@algernon, i fixed... :D No new connection is added to this part of the map, I removed all the mods, only 81 tiles remained and I pulled the connection to another area that the game itself allows.

@Fraud. So the outside connection is working, okay. Addressing the traffic is a gameplay issue, and there are a number of guides out there on building rail networks. Basic points are to remove any bottlenecks in your internal rail network, make sure there are alternative routes, and possibly even keep your internal and external lines separate.

The best treatment depends on your city and playstyle, so I can't advise on specifics.

@algernon yeah, that working but so many traffic flow here, When this traffic gets longer, it reaches the city center and all train traffic stops.

@Fraud. Isn't that screenshot showing that your outside connections are working?

:steamsad:I have 2 Modes;
81 Tiles & Unlimited Outside Connections (+Harmony2.2.20) but rail way "green arrows" not seen anytime.I haven't played the game for 48 hours to solve this. I just really want to solve the problem

@Fraud. Make sure that you're only trying to make outside rail connections with vanilla tracks (most custom tracks don't support outside connections), and have your Network Anarchy elevation setting to 'default'.
