Lane control
The lane tool can define connections or block particular paths through a junction.

Downstream pathCan the line move?
How to approach the decision
Editorial planning advice based on the confirmed systems above.
- Inspect a single problem movement, then change its connection.
- Watch downstream queues after changing a signal phase.
A mistake to avoid
Giving one movement more time can move the queue to another approach.
Unknown values and independent test scope
Signal timings, path-choice thresholds and optimal junction layouts.
Official documentation, historical developer statements and editorial inspection advice have separate scopes. Exact unobserved values remain Unknown. A published global patch does not establish an independent test of this guide.
