I personally think the road addition to the map based on won't affect the scale. They did so for Cabbage Hill, and the Million Dollar. I think if they do add I-635 and make DFW airport connect there instead of I-35W, they could cheat I-35E by adding more distance between Dallas and Denton by pushing it more out. Also McKinney is a city on the control sign, so it has to be in. They could push Sherman to Gainesville latitude.

Trakaplex, wouldn't that mean, less distance between Denton and Gainesville?

Guguz, yeah, a bug report might be in order?

Put it in the translation issues forum, not the regular bug forum.

Nah, I mean by pushing it more east not north if they do add and extend I-635. So we could get a longer distance more in the northeast location, like in around Carrollton and Frisco's irl location. This won't lessen any distance up to Gainesville.

But that would push Gainesville too close to Sherman.
And that could affect US-69? wich in turn would affect Paris.

My idea was that they could push Sherman more north than the Gainesville latitude, who cares about Denison. It's unusually more south in the editor than Gainesville. So they could do I-35E more like a square perimeter than a curve. Directly north until it hits south Denton then curve left west directly. That way, they could not only fit I-635, but add an exit in Lewisville and do Lewisville Lake as scenic. It doesn't matter how weird the map looks, but as long as they fit things in.

The Lewisville exit could be Hebron/Round Grove/FM 3040. They could provide a more realistic connection to DFW airport this way (or I-635) and they could delete the I-35W and Mustang which do not meet in real life. They could do Texas Motor Speedway and TX-114 in replacement. If they add I-635 as a connection to DFW, they could make the FM 3040 exit scenic, like they did for Belt Line except with an overpass. Also that Belt Line exit leading to nowhere always gets me :lol:

They could move Sherman, but it won't affect Paris. There is literally no area between Dallas and Denton currently, it's like sandwiched on one another. Like SLC-Ogden but 10x worse and more recognizable.

I don't expect any reworks to come with these new Texas additions. We might get a depot or gas station in McKinney to justify it being on the control sign, and then Sherman as a scenic city. With High Five included if they have space for it. I wouldn't expect more than that.
