List of suggestions to improve workflow
Opened this issue · 2 comments
Hello, I have been working with the Driving Scenario Creator and have made a list of suggestions that can improve the workflow.
-
I like that I can make custom roads. However, it takes a very long time to create a version of a road that exists in real life. So far, my workflow has consisted of creating the road, checking if it fits, deleting the road, changing some settings and repeat. In other words, a lot of trial and error.
My suggestion is to have a section in the object properties menu that holds the values for the created road, which can then be changed dynamically to update it when it's already placed. This would also make changing previously placed roads possible if they need to be adjusted to fit a newer one. I believe this would speed up the process of making and connecting roads by a lot. -
The road presets that are given by default are a great starting point in most cases. The problem I am having is that sometimes I would need one or a few settings that are different from the preset, which I need to use more than once. It would be nice to be able to save my own presets and maybe edit and delete them as well.

Three great additions to the broken line setting would be:
- a length value for when shorter broken lines are needed
- a shift value. This removes the problem of when two roads that are connecting could also make a double-length broken white line.
- a solid broken and broken solid line setting to allow cars to pass on only one side of the road.
- Roads that can be made using a curve with adjustable handles. In addition to that, the ability to rework this kind of road after it is placed down would make it even better.
Thank you!
Thanks for the input, these are all good suggestions. I already had some similar ideas in mind and will consider yours in the future. Right now I'm working on adding traffic signs. Only after that I will go back to road tooling improvements. Please bear with me and keep in mind that this is a side project only and therefore it moves slowly.
Thank you for answering and also for considering my suggestions. I already saw that you started working on the traffic signs branch and am therefore aware that this is not a priority and could take some time.
