Hm, not quite yet, I'm afraid. The game crashes when I'm scrolling to my custom oneway-road in the road menu...
Any ideas what causes this crash?

One way roads require 64 frames. You may use 16, and repeat 3 more times, like I showed above.

Of course, you might not want to use my handles for the bridge frames,
as this is for tunnel bridges.

Indeed, thanks. I specified the same image three additional times as frames and the crashes are gone now.
The road still doesn't work, though. My cars won't spawn (I used a custom flag both in the car and the spawner building). Don't know why, but nothing happens there.

It gets stranger and stranger. Now I got the car to spawn. However, parts of the car's other frames as well as completely unrelated cars (e.g. parts of the S-Bahn etc.) are shown when the car makes a turn :?

Maybe you have "v2" vehicle images and didn't specify that in the code.

Yes, I have a v2-image and I specified "v2"=true in the car JSON, but it doesn't work as intended.

Alright, I got it working. The error was caused by a superfluous quotation-mark in the specified pixel dimensions of the car frame. :thumbsup:

It won't let me open ".plugin" files. How do I get around that?

Ask the author of the .plugin file.

.plugin files are used by authors who don't want people to see their code

I'm so confused. This is all so frustrating. I don't know how other people figure it out within hours when I can't even get past the basics.

I tried downloading Pixly and QuickEdit, still don't know what I'm doing!

*frustrated, dramatic scream*

If so, what ID?

Not sure.
Just use this code which is @Lobbu's

Code: Select all

"bridge frames":[
          {"x":512,"y":96,"w":32,"h":48,"count":12},
        {"x":896,"y":214,"w":32,"h":26,"count":4},

          {"x":512,"y":96,"w":32,"h":48,"count":4},{"x":896,"y":96,"w":32,"h":48,"count":4},{"x":768,"y":96,"w":32,"h":48,"count":4},
        {"x":896,"y":214,"w":32,"h":26,"count":4},

        {"x":512,"y":144,"w":32,"h":48,"count":12},
        {"x":896,"y":214,"w":32,"h":26,"count":4},

          {"x":512,"y":144,"w":32,"h":48,"count":4},{"x":896,"y":144,"w":32,"h":48,"count":4},{"x":768,"y":144,"w":32,"h":48,"count":4},
        {"x":896,"y":214,"w":32,"h":26,"count":4},

        {"x":512,"y":192,"w":32,"h":48,"count":12},
        {"x":896,"y":214,"w":32,"h":26,"count":4}
      ],
