Traffic Unjammed

Note: Yes, the mod image is AI-generated. I fix broken traffic AI, not my artistic talent.

Traffic Unjammed improves Cyberpunk 2077’s traffic AI by intelligently recovering vehicles that get stuck and block traffic flow.

Instead of permanently frozen cars or endless jams, the mod monitors vehicle states and safely resumes traffic when possible. It avoids unsafe recoveries such as off-lane starts, pavement resumes, or blocked paths (all configurable).

As a fallback, an optional force‑rejoin system restarts traffic after a configurable delay, ensuring long‑standing jams eventually clear even in complex situations.

New (v0. 51)

• []A potential crash during shootings (TrafficUnjammedEmergencyService) has been fixed. Thanks to @psiberx for the heads-up.

  New features (v0. 5):

  • []Settings UI: Categories added (Stuck Recovery, Lane Switching, Following Distance, Creep Forward, Honking, Speed Variation, Traffic Lights)

    []Reset Stuck Counter: Stuck counter resets on successful resume (fixes vanilla permanent-stuck bug)

    []Creep Forward: Stopped vehicles periodically nudge forward if path is clear

    []Speed Variation: Each NPC vehicle gets a random speed multiplier (0. 75x–1. 15x)

    []Speed-Aware Following Distance: Gap scales dynamically with vehicle speed

    []Gap Re-roll: Following distance drifts slightly over time instead of being static

    []Detect Static Blocks: Auto lane-switch around parked/destroyed/driverless vehicles

    []Bump-Triggered Honk: Bumped vehicles honk and propagate to nearby traffic

    []Honk Anti-Loop: Propagated honks no longer chain infinitely

    []Resume Safety: Abandoned, destroyed, and panicking vehicles are now excluded from resume/rejoin

    []Following Distance Min lowered from 2. 00m to 0. 20m

    New features (v0. 3):

    • []Lane switching for stuck traffic (optional)

      []Randomized following distance between vehicles (optional)

      []Softer braking response for traffic flow (optional)

      []Honk propagation with blockage checks (optional)

      New features (v0. 2):

      • []Respect traffic lights for AI traffic (optional)

        []Shooting response: nearby traffic ignores lights briefly during gunfire (optional)

        []Disable traffic lane clearing so NPCs stop magically moving aside for the player (optional)

        All behavior is fully adjustable via Codeware ModSettings, including:

        • []Stuck detection thresholds

          []Resume delays

          []Safety checks (lane, pavement, blockage)

          []Force rejoin timing and conditions

          []Shooting ignore radius and duration

          Designed to be lightweight, modular, and compatible with other AI or traffic mods (hopefully).
