@ChunkDev Sort of, they are separate lanes and the cars will respect box junctions to avoid gridlock, but the cars still phase through each other, I haven't done that part yet.

I've used bullet in the past so I should be fine when I eventually need it. I hope.

Got the street segments and sidewalks to generate meshes using Bezier curves. The road now looks much smoother when elevation changes. Like you could actually drive on it.

Second article on city generation should drop soon-ish on https://t.co/txkHHyoKop
Like, next week or something.
