Part 3: advanced street network tutorial settings

In the "scenes" folder of the street Tutorial Project, create a new scenario [file]-> [new]-> [cityenginescene]

 

Advanced street network

So far, we have only used Basic settings to create a road network. In this section, we will give you some idea and inspiration for using cityengine to create different types of road networks.

 

Change style when generating a road network

Choose graph> growstreets to open the road generation dialog box;

Select "Radial (Radial Road Network)" from the two "pattern" drop-down boxes and click the Apply button;

Select raster from the two "pattern" drop-down boxes and click the Apply button.

Now you can obtain a grid with a grid shape in the center and a radial shape in the edge.

 

Connect two road networks

Click the eye icon in the "scene" window to hide the current road network layer;

Choose graph> growstreets to open the road generation dialog box;

Select "Radial (Radial Road Network)" from the two "pattern" drop-down boxes and click the Apply button;

Select Add road tool (shortcut: G) to create a separate Street

Select the cursor tool (or click the Q key on the keyboard) and select the New Street in the figure.

In the road generation dialog box, select raster from the two pattern drop-down lists, and click Apply.

Observing the connection between the square grid road network and the Ring Radial Road Network

 

Knowledge: only road elements in the same layer can be connected to each other. Therefore, when creating and growing roads, make sure that the layers of the road network to be added are selected in the "scene" window.

Examples of different street styles

The following lists eight road networks generated by combining different styles and styles. You can generate these styles by changing different settings in the road generation window, you can also directly open the "tutorial_02_streets/scenes/streettutorial_addpatterns.cej" scenario to observe these road networks.

General settings

The following are general settings for "Environment Settings" and "street width Settings" in all examples.

01 square grid Road Network

02 Ring Radial Road Network

03 organism Style


04 main streets are radial and secondary Grids


05 organism circle Style

06 honeycomb style 07 glasses style 08 organism style, grid-like street distribution inside
