i think during Pangea, the center of the land was a big ass desert, and a very dry one, the network would probably look like a doughnut

    That empty land would allow for some nice desert crossings. Empty land is easier to develop and you can go faster.

    I'm imagine a donut with at least 2 dessert lines but maybe more. Likely a terminal town would appear in the center of the continent to be used for transfers

    Oh I just saw the answer to this in the new Dinosaurs doc on Netflix, assuming it’s accuracy. At the beginning of Pangea the center was a desert with only the edges having any plant life, then there was a geologic event I think a large number of super volcanoes that caused a climate shift and there was a million years of hurricanes, when the storms finally subsided Pangea was green all over
