I suppose I should post this here. My world, The Wraithsands.
The_Goddess:
I've been using the tool since it came out and I have not had any problems with the routing paint not working correctly. I have never seen any routing lines going into the blue paint, nor have any of my sims stepped on the nasty blue sim repellent. This makes me wonder what could be happening that it would occur in your world.
Claeric:
There was a thread on MTS about it.
If an area is very broad, those lines it makes when you build routing data won't be dense. A lot, for example, is a lot of lines coming from the edges and meeting at the center. But an empty area might just be a few big lines.
And if there's no meeting point between those lines (no increments or anything, it's literally one big line), then sims will route from one end to another, even if the center is covered by no-routing paint. The no routing paint gets rid of nodes, not the lines connecting them. And if two nodes connect over the paint, nothing changes.
I assume that's what happened. It's nowhere big or a big deal though.

You can always move the science facility, but I figure since you can't be late to work(commute does not drop your work performance, you only lose it if the panel says "Missing work!"), it doesn't matter. As long as your sim is on the way there, they won't get in trouble or anything. Though I don't remember why I put it there to begin with.
You still lose performance during commute, just more slowly and sneakily: You don't gain it, AND you lose the time you SHOULD be gaining it. It's just a question of where you set your zeropoint. People are remarkably bad at grokking this concept, that motion is relative, and if you aren't moving when you SHOULD be, then you are, in fact, losing.

Ah, but to grok anything in its fullness is to experience it with love as well as understanding its consequences.
Claeric:
Really? I hadn't noticed a drop, that's interesting.
Though that doesn't irk me too much, honestly, as since most places are along the road(a large highway), that makes cars have a damn purpose for once. Faster car = faster commute.
