Traffic rating and joining land parcels

If I have two congruent parcels of land, what happens to the traffic rating if I join them? Does the algorithm work such that the two traffic ratings are added (since the number of people and amount of time spent on each parcel should still add up), or is rating taken over the other? How does it work?

Hello Peter. I just tested this to make sure I gave you the right answer. First, the traffic numbers will not join and become a mix of the two. The traffic number for the new plot will be the same as one of the old plots. When you join land, the parcel properties will be based on the properties for the last piece chosen to join.

For example, Plot A has traffic number of 500. Plot B has traffic number of 10. If you join plot B to Plot A, the new plot will have a traffic number of 500. And, if you join Plot A to Plot B, the traffic for the new plot will be 10. The same applies to other properties, like the name of the plot, music url, etc.

Hope this explains it for you.
