Hi Thom, I think you can do what you want quite easily. Run all of your line features through a Counter to give them a unique ID (unless they have one already).
Then set the TopologyBuilder group-by to use the unique ID. Doing this will exclude overlapping lines from the node generation; overlaps would only get noded where their IDs are the same. However, nodes are still created where end-points meet. Hope this helps, Mark Mark Ireland, Product Support Engineer Safe Software Inc.
