Traffic Architect Demo Update 1.0.6 Adds District Route Visualization And Calmer Early Game

Traffic Architect demo update 1.0.6 introduces district car route tracking, rebalanced early game traffic flow, improved bridge previews, and responsive junction conflict fixes.

What changed

• Added district route inspection tool that isolates inbound and outbound commuter trips.
• Rebalanced early game building density and adjusted city subsidies across difficulties.
• Enhanced bridge and tunnel construction previews with visible pillars and portals.
• Fixed junction gridlock where blocked cars prevented side road traffic movement.

Traffic Analysis and Visual Route Tools

• Players can select a city district with the info tool to highlight incoming commuter trips while dimming unrelated traffic.
• Clicking a district a second time reveals departing vehicle routes, helping civil planners track destination patterns.
• District overload alerts now explicitly state the underlying cause of long traffic queues.

Early Game Progression and Balance

• Vehicle trip generation rates from small districts were decreased to smooth traffic flow during the early stages.
• Financial subsidies on Easy and Medium difficulty were increased to support early road infrastructure expansions.
• Loan amounts from the credit system now scale according to current municipal income with clear repayment tracking.

Junction Fixes and Road Tools

• Vehicles stranded inside intersections no longer cause indefinite gridlock across intersecting side streets.
• Construction previews for bridges and tunnels display structural pillars and portal outlines before placement.
• The curve tool supports switching between drawing the road arc first or defining the endpoints first.
