SC2000: Bug or what?

[anonymous]

In Sim City 2000 has anyone else had problems getting the highways
to work properly? I can build the bloody things but it doesn't seem to
let me add any on ramps to let the traffic on. Am I missing something
here or is this a bug? I can select the on ramp and move it to the required
location (you can see the shadow on the ground where this item should
be located) but when I click the mouse button to confirm building the on
ramp bugger all happens!

Comments anyone?

In order to build an on ramp, you must have a standard road (like
the kind that costs $10/square) that runs perpendicular to the highway.
The only place the onramps can be built are the four corners of where the
road and highway meet...

Hope this helps!

E-me if you have more questions/need clarification.

Also, the onramp takes up two squares, not one! That's two parallel to
the highway. One for the actual ramp up, and one for the intersection
(streetlight) between highway and road. Make sure you have two spaces
available.
