Question About the Traffic Mod

Post by Sonshine » November 12th, 2023, 12:14 pm

Hi, it's been a while since I've been here and even played the sims. I just started a game recently and have the traffic mod. In my game, I get the notice (about every 10 mins or so) that thousands of cars (sometime 10's of thousands) have been removed. I've never seen it to this extent before. Is this a glitch or maybe my game is glitched?

What settings do you have made?
You should change this to true
NRaas > Traffic > Routing > Always Use Taxis for Inactives Lacking Vehicles > True

The insane overspawnage of vehicles as described is usually due to one or more different flaws in the game itself. The most common is performance career limos. This setting should fix that.

NRaas > Traffic > Routing > Allow Performance Career Limos > False

Less commonly reported, but it still happens, is the overspawnage of other types of limos. Nonamena's mod from Simlogical can fix that and it does not conflict with Nraas Traffic. Some players also get this problem with snack and ice cream trucks, both of which Traffic has settings to control.

Having said all of the above, I've never heard of vehicular cleanup being conducted every ten minutes Are these sim or real time minutes? The cleanup is a function of Overwatch, not Traffic, that should be running once per sim night on default settings. What Traffic does is prevent the ridiculous issuance of these vehicles in the first place, not provide another cleanup method.

This is happening in real time min. I'll take a look at the settings. I've never had to worry about this before. I'll change the settings and let you know.
