How is L-systems for road networks modified?

Question

Greetings each and all!

I\'m currently looking into procedural generation of a road network and stumbled upon the L-system algorithm. From what I understand from various

I'm the author of the above blog post -- glad you found it useful! I never did get around to finishing Spare Parts -- and if nothing else, I'd have to change the name -- but you've got me thinking about it again.

Certainly, the algorithm I described probably isn't much of an L-system anymore; importantly, though, I think it's pretty much functionally equivalent. I'm a positivist when it comes to programming, so if it works, compile it!

EDIT: I've since taken down my old website, but I've recreated the post here. Hope it's still helpful!
