8-way intersection, fully grade-separated

Post by Erichteia »

Max throughput branches are the diagonal ones. Followed by horizontal/vertical to diagonal. Left turns between horizontal and vertical are the slowest. Signalled for up to 10-segment long trains (e.g. Locomotive - 8 wagon - locomotive)

Improved it a bit (blueprint string was updated). The additional exit lanes for the horizontal and vertical branches are exit merging lanes and are optional and only needed for extreme throughput. If you keep them, extend them for a good distance with several possibilities to merge for optimal results.

Very cool. It's even not super huge. Now I just have to make up some reason to use it in my game.
