SNOT Roads

Michael Horvath edited this page Dec 26, 2020 · 1 revision

"SNOT" refers to "Studs Not On Top" which is a LEGO building technique. The SNOT road models used in Datsville are based on these designs by Mike Gallagher.

The naming scheme for the road sections is based on several factors. Firstly, road sections are named based on the number of endpoints:

  • "double" means a straight road section with two endpoints.
  • "triple" means an intersection with three endpoints.
  • "quad" means an intersection with four endpoints.
  • "half" is half the length of a double.

Currently "curve" sections only have two endpoints as well. This may change in the future.

Secondly, road sections are named based on the type of center line markings:

  • "blank" means there are no center lines.
  • "dots" means there are dotted center lines.
  • "oneway" means there are white dashed center lines.
  • "stripe" means there are yellow solid double center lines.

Thirdly, road sections are named based on the type of painted markings at the intersections:

  • "0" means no markings.
  • "1" means a solid stop line showing where a vehicle must halt at an intersection.
  • "2" means a crosswalk for pedestrians.
  • "3" means both a solid stop line and a crosswalk.

The number of digits depends on how many endpoints a road section has. A "quad" road section has four digits since there are four endpoints. Endpoints are specified in clockwise order starting from the top.

Lastly, road sections are named based on the type of arrow markings:

  • "leftonly" means a vehicle may only make a left turn at the intersection.
  • "rightonly" means a vehicle may only make a right turn at the intersection.
  • And so on.
