no road traffic to road traffic

How do you convert a road that has no road traffic to one that does? And is it possible to make it so that traffic only flows in one direction (I assume dependant on which way the road is laid)?
 
You can also modify a road to have traffic if you want a traffic version of the road. This works the opposite too which I've done with some Yarn type roads which I reskinned and removed traffic for my use.

To create a one-way road or street add the following tag to the config.txt

[TABLE="width: 100%"]
[TR]
[TD]isfreeway[/TD]
[TD]boolean[/TD]
[TD]config.txt[/TD]
[TD]splines[/TD]
[TD]Boolean function that when set to true, allows road traffic to flow in the same direction in multiple lanes of the one road spline.[/TD]
[/TR]
[/TABLE]

Remember to drag the road opposite of the direction you wish traffic to travel. It works great. :)

Thanks guys for the help. Traffic is turned on so I know that that was not an issue. The road in question states in the description that it is a no traffic road. I thought about altering the config.txt using the carrate but changing the number - although producing traffic made the road invisible.
I like your idea John but again as soon as I added the isfreeway command the road went invisible. So that left me with the C +RN spawner. That works great for what I want as the spawner is easily hidden so thanks guys for the advice.
 
Glad my traffic spawners work for you :).

If you want to clone any of them and change the settings in the config (e.g. carrate) please feel free to do so, you may also to release your version(s) to the DLS. (Note: The TGA files will need editing to reflect the changed carrate).

Road went invisible???

isfreeway 1

Boolean meaning 0 or 1...you have it or don't!

I hope this is what you put in and not as it was stated in the example from the wiki. :)

Not sure what went wrong John. I'll have another go at it today.

Chris (Itareus) (hopefully you are still reading this thread), I've been doing some testing with your roads. Is it possible to make/ or convert an existing junction so that the junction splits to allow a 2 way road to become 4 lanes? as in going from a standard UK road to a dual carriageway? Or is it already possible?

There are already some, non-spline, tapered road assets on the DLS e.g. C+ RN Road Asph 08mw to 7mw (10ml),<kuid:243828:1676> but these are a fairly gentle taper. If they won't do the job then let me have some pictures or a sketch of what you are after (with dimensions if possible) and I'll make some.
