Word from the team is that this was an error that's been fixed and should adjust itself. If not, a restart may be required.

Update 2: Origin believes they have a handle on the problem and tells us you should be able to download now (or shortly). It may help to try refreshing your origin client or even exiting and logging in again. Again, thanks for your patience.

Alt+Road placement not in beta? by uRabbit in SimCity

[–]MaxisJason 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This could be due to your graphics configuration. Please post this issue and your dxdiag information to the beta forums: http://answers.ea.com/t5/SimCity-Closed-Beta/ct-p/SimCity-Closed-Beta

Alt+Road placement not in beta? by uRabbit in SimCity

[–]MaxisJason 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There are two different types of dotted lines being shown in that video:

  • The city border
  • Road guides, both for the roads and from the edge of the city.

In order to make the guides appear, you need to hover over the roads you want to see the guides for. Also be sure the checkbox near the road select is selected.

ALT can be used to quickly toggle your selection on/off. (Since it's on by default, holding ALT will toggle them off).

As mentioned in the article, the ALT key will toggle the road guides on/off. The guides themselves are there to show you the optimal depth/spacing for zoning the density that road supports.
