Attached is how put the reflector pavement marks on the markings, we do every other 2 skip lines.

Re: Texas pre-research tips
I doubt we get 10 tracks. More than likely, high chance we won't even get that road. The Katy Freeway is 26 lanes. Widest road in the world. At 1:20 scale, there's just no room for this wide stuff.
My post are only thoughts and ideas. Don't assume it makes ATS.

Re: Texas pre-research tips
That's a 9-track crossing, not 10.
I'd love to see some wide freeways, though. The tiny little 2- and 3-lane freeways make even the largest cities feel like small towns.
I do like the part of the road markings guidelines that states "Edgelines are not required in curb and gutter sections of the roadway". This is a detail too forgotten in roadway design in games. SCS has significantly improved on this in Oregon and Washington it seems.
It's such a tiny detail, but it makes a town quite immersive to me.

This TxDOT documentation shows the guidelines for left turns at signalized intersections: https://nacto.org/docs/usdg/development ... nes_yu.pdf

Hazardous materials are not allowed inside the 610. Trucks with those jobs IRL going cross country have to use it for going around downtown.

Re: Texas pre-research tips
Notes for researchers:
At I-20 eastbound MM 179 (Big Spring), there is a crushed sign on the ground on the right, still with 4 cones around it. Used to be the green sign for 20 business. I request there be three crosses on the ground in that spot, for the bus accident in November 2021.
The 302 and 115 intersection on the west side of Kermit is building into a large 4 lane overpass, 302 going over 115. Large 18.6 ft clearance, median is a concrete wall, ramp intersections will be signalized. Also another bridge over the railroad just to the east. Project is for the constant and heavy truck traffic.
The mesquite brush covering west texas is more lighter green, not dark green. Darker green shades begin at I-20 and southeastward. The brush barely reaches the height of a small car. The trees outside of Hobbs NM should be removed

Re: Texas pre-research tips
I looked on Google Maps and I think on the south side of Love Field is some industry along Mockingbird Lane. I know there is some along or near Mockingbird from Henry Heinz Blvd. to Irving, Blvd. I think that is because you have I-35E there. I am not sure if the Galleria Dallas will be in the game, I hope it is. That is because of the entire complex, there would be some ideas for deliveries to there such as items from 42 Print and of course a good stop for picking up waste paper, used packaging, and empty pallets. I know we already have some companies that sell either wood chips or wood shavings. And my guess is that sometimes picking up used pallets from other sources and delivering it to these mulch mills is good since they would take the pallets and either grind them up or burn them, and the ashes would be used to add to the mulch mix.
Re: Texas pre-research tips
There is a zero chance for Galleria to show up in the Texas dlc. We need both I-635 and the Dallas Tollway to get it. Neither will come I bet. No point honestly. There are better options for industry all along I-635 that we won't get either. I wouldn't get my hopes up. Way to many options here in DFW that are more about trucking than any mall to be honest.
