Disclaimer
This mod should work in official game with any map DLCs. However, it does not provides support for any map mod that comes with their own traffic light objects and custom switching. If you are currently using any map mod, this mod may not work as expected. This mod has no plan to support 3rd party's map mods.

@madman Do you plan on releasing the flashing yellow mod for all states? Left turn yield is a welcomed addition to the game!!

It seems the *.scs format does not inherit *.zip format. Try this one.

I've tested myself in Carson City (Nevada) and it works.

I'm in Nevada

@jonkubatzki
Are you in the area of Arizona or Nevada?

I placed the flashing arrow mod above the extended traffic light timing mod and the traffic lights still look the same as without mod

Yes it is possible. I have a proof of concept for Arizona and Nevada. You can download it here:
https://drive.google.com/file/d/1p7F58-ARSYPgUleH3hM3-87TxLoQv_Kv/view

It will change the LEFT TURN traffic lights in Arizona and Nevada as follows:
- Flashing red 4 secs before green light
- Steady green on priority green turn
- Flashing yellow on yield green turn
- Steady yellow 4 secs before red light

Place the downloaded *.scs file into your game "mod" folder and put it on the active mod list in game's Mod Manager, right on top of this Extended Traffic Light Timing mod.

Please note, SCS implementation for traffic light signals are very limited. There is no "yield until clear" signal when left turn signal flashing yellow. Most traffic light assets also shared across states so it is almost not possible to implement specific traffic light behavior for a certain state.

Is this possible... After the Green left arrows cycle and they turn yellow, can the then flash yellow while the main road is green? Maybe not flash but just be yellow?
