My suggestions would be for Rest-In-Walk, and anti-backup logic (previously posted in the Synchro 7 forum: http://trafficware.infopop.cc/eve/forums/a/tpc/f/1221051642/m/1811061625), but the ability to show the pedestrian signal indication in SimTraffic 7 (walk signal or upraised hand) would also be a useful feature when modelling urban areas with heavy pedestrian volumes.
Pre-emption would also be a nice feature in a future version.

along those lines, being able to enter controller logic type of a more specific nature (say, a 2070 controller) would be great as well. The goal would be to look at a timing sheet, and translate the timing data 1 for 1 directly into the synchro inputs.
Traffic Responsive controllers in synchro would be great as well.
Railroad pre-emtion would be a great feature to enable as well.
The following are the more advanced controller features I would like to see in the future release of Synchro:
1. For actuated uncoordinated signals, Synchro being able to represent every controller available. 2. Similtaneous gap out to be consistent with controllers in the field. 3. 170 controller offset reference. Synchro should be able to represent 170 style controller lagging arrow problem.
