## Automata Options
1818
The Network Addon Mod provides a variety Automata Controllers to choose from, and each of them made from a combination of options which affect automata in a slightly different way. The two base options are:
19-
* **Standard** - Maintains the default Maxis values for the quantity of automata and speed they visually travel over a network. The only exception is for the [RealHighway](/docs/feature-guides/realhighway-mod) network, which has had its speed increased to give more of an accurate representation of the speed the vehicles traveling at on a highway network.

21-
* **Radical** - Increases the speed of automata travel and the maximum amount of automata able to be visible at a given time.

There are three additional options which modify the base options for additional customization:

* **24-hour** - Varies the volume of automata present depending on the time of day. This option creates a low volume of traffic at night, a high volume of traffic during the morning and evening rush hours, and a medium volume of traffic in the middle of the day.

One of the base options and one or more of the additional options may be combined to produce your desired configuration.

As an example, *Standard*, and *Standard 24-Hour*, and *Standard 24-Hour Persistent* are all valid configurations.

The following parameters have been tweaked with the **Radical** option compared to the Maxis default **Standard** option.
