It’s just a choice and it relates to culture. If you get too efficient with your venues, you end up not having enough active stages to meet your culture requirements. The large block has 3 booths, 2 stages and 1 platform which roughly gives perfect coverage when the stages have active shows. In low culture missions I will often skip the bandstand to make things simpler for the walkers but they manage to get around pretty well, even with the extra intersection

@@molarmauler thats fair, making culture parks is kinda lame

@ yeah 🤣 It’s one of the things I abhor along with unemployment parks which is why I love the large block as it lets me do controlled manor evolution

That my friend is the magic of editing 😂 I try to cut out a lot of boring UI navigation with trade screens and warehouses, etc… What I do with trade cities if I’m having trouble clicking on them is to zoom in a bit on the trade map to gain some separation.

@@molarmauler You're the man, thanks!

Hey thanks Adekyn! It does get a little slow at times… I’m dreading redoing Hetepsenruset when it comes due 🤣 I am getting a little aggressive in my editing lately so I’m trying not to pay that boredom forward. I’m editing the introduction to Dunqul right now although I haven’t started playing it yet. It’s military of course and the economy looks like it’s going to be tight so I don’t think I’ll be bored during that one.

I have a love hate relationship with the hunting lodge sounds. I love anything that adds ambience to the game but they are incessant 😂

The block isn’t designed to hold a Senet House, it’s simply named after my forum name way back in time on HeavenGames. I use a Small, Medium and Large variant of this basic block design for all my cities If I do place a Senet House or a Zoo in my cities, they are usually placed anywhere ‘artistic’ or in a Palace Block

Under Options, at the top right of the Gameplay settings, there is a toggle for Uncapped Zoom. It allows a lot more of the zoom you’re noticing. It’s amazing!

@@molarmauler thanks!

It's November 2 here also, but we have a high of 71 with sunny skies, a typical NC beautiful fall day. SenetEr, hope you are doing well.

@ I am! And I would definitely trade NC weather for Alberta weather 😂

Each of the blocks has its own video now and I’ve tried to show the layout in different screenshottable ways in each video. I hope that helps as I don’t have any spreadsheet skills 😂 They are searchable as Small SenetEr Block, Medium SenetEr Block and Large SenetEr Block

@@molarmauler I understand! Thanks for the videos and response! :)

Thanks! I’m practicing my editing hard, so the compliment means a ton!

usually I find most prebaked "loops" boring and ugly but this is pretty elegant (still; I'd never play with global labour on so it would be a fully residential neighbourhood; my rule is to have no shitty dwelling in a middle of nowhere so I build neighbourhood around different industrial / food districts, like the game originally intended. )

@@valdir7426we have a very similar style then. I try very hard to avoid the line crude hut for employment although I sometimes rationalize one at times 😂 Thanks for appreciating the aesthetics of the block though. It’s fully realized in the large block where buildings and venues are grouped by type with buildings needing supplies or walkers being close to the entrance. My goal was a pretty, functional block that was closely balanced to culture requirements

I’m glad you found them and I hope you do the campaign over with a non-global labor pool. It’s a good challenge and these blocks are designed to help with employment as all the houses are accessible (as they are on the ‘outside’ of the block) 😀

@@molarmauler Indeed, I only had 2 shacks on the map, both working a ferry, and with no space for anything else, and the whole 15k city ran really well. My favourite is probably the small block, they are super useful, and the other two make some nice cities.

Yes, I’ll be focused on completing the Campaign!

I've just added a link at the start of the video that will take you to Ptolemy's Alexandria, which is the city I used to create this Tips video. It is a playthrough of the creation of this city. I hope that is what you meant!

😊 I have a lot of fun, not only with the game, but I learn more editing stuff every video. Looking forward to Civ 7

You’re welcome. It’s a fun little block!

Those are very stressful, especially for Mrs MolarMauler 😂 I’m happy to hear I come across calm 😌 I’ll be doing them anytime I am at a Wonder or a UNESCO site.

I was on holidays for two weeks. Recorded the first the day before and scheduled it a few days later. Came home and recorded and edited it same day lol. I hope to be more regular again. No more holidays!

That was such an awesome community. Back when the internet was a mostly nice place 😂

@@molarmauler Good times 😁

The debens thing is weird. It’s so fun to run good times! At HeavenGames there were some crazy times and that was on Very Hard!

Thanks 🙏 I really enjoyed this one and I hope you did too

My games need a lot of editing 😂 or they’re unwatchable. Now they’re just borderline unwatchable 😂 Definitely need work smoothing out the audio.

Hey thanks! Encouragement is sorely needed at times 😂

when the bombs drop, we won't have civilization, so what you're doing is a precious and scarce resource

There is a cross road under the plaza and the shrines are all within 3 tiles of these roads. The architect will wander into the crossroad of the festival square and cover the shrines 👍

Thanks 💯

Thank you! 😁

😱 I totally forgot about that ability

Hey thanks 🙏 Wasn’t intending to take as long a break. Tons of personal stuff eating up my time and energy. Hopefully be a little more consistent now

I thought I would try it to see if it helped with debt management but in retrospect I think the Ptah blessings helped more than I thought. When I do this one again during my campaign re-playthrough, I’m going to try for all the limestone and I’ll keep restarting till I duplicate the blessings I got on this run

@@molarmaulerThanks, that makes sense. Clever approach with the blessings at the start.

It’s always great when she (and Ptah) is on the map!

🤗Bubastis is one of the upcoming missions in my campaign replay that I’m really looking forward to.

Thank you! It’s an old design but it checks out 😉 I have links to a set of better quality videos in the description and I hope to make a new medium SenetEr block video soon

You’re very welcome! Thank you for watching!! Estates are 4x4 👍

Your only producible food is Game Meat. On sells Cattle Meat at the beginning of the game. I believe Grain becomes available (along with the required Beer) when Buhen(?) opens later in the mission

Many thanks for that along with your informative video. Keep up the good work.@@molarmauler

Thanks for the encouragement!

I’ll have to try that. I originally did it immediately because of the old game, when that didn’t work I just gave up and accepted the losses. I thought I read somewhere that towers provide a radius of protection in the new game but I haven’t tried that out

I wasn’t sure what you meant so I went to the timestamp to have a look and holy cow! You’re right. That’s very weird. Definitely exploitable if it’s correctly displayed 😂

I figured it out. There must have been a Ra Blessing that increased our prices by 50% 😊

It seems almost every mission lately I have a butt clench moment waiting to see if the ferrys work. It usually involves the roads, this is the first time I had to start moving them to find the problem 😣

I have to admit I was super nervous when I decided to try it. I’m really pumped that it worked out

Hey thanks 🙏 Trying some new editing things. Trying to find a balance between boring and choppy 😂

Wolf and I employ completely different mechanics for our block entertainment. He uses the destination walker that goes from the school to the venue to provide entertainment for his blocks. I use the entertainer that spawns from the venue after the destination walker arrives from the school. That’s why he has two pavilions in his block so he can force the destination walkers up both sides of his block. I have the venues close to the entrance so the destination walker has a shorter trip to the venues so I can get away with fewer schools.

Interesting, so much to learn in this game!

This is a game about death and taxes

Thanks Adekyn! It was watching one of your videos where I saw you using it, that got me so pumped I decided to learn how to UA-cam 😀

I guess I can try that design too

@@reginaldturner1669 It’s a versatile little block. I usually have as many of them in a city as I do the large block.

@@molarmauler I see
