  • We're back in Cities Skylines (City Skyline) engineering a way to stop a huge tsunami from wiping out my city. Can I put my real life drainage knowledge into practice to build an unfloodable city that can withstand a tsunami? The five step process all real engineers use is in place!

PCBs can be hard to read sometimes. The labels on the board can be misleading because they aren’t always as obvious as you would think.

    Not a particularly realistic tsunami, but it is interesting that the game's fluid model causes the water level at the shore to fall before the tsunami front arrives. That happens in real life as well - during the 2004 Indonesian tsunami a guy who had read about that behavior in Scientific American managed to get a bunch of people to high ground ahead of the tsunami, likely saving their lives.

So you do the same but instead of clicking to connect the pumps, you are clicking to place them. So that such take about the same amount of time. But if you do the pumps first you also have to take the time to place the pumps and you don’t have that time if you do the pipes first.

      Repent and follow Jesus my friend! Repenting doesn't mean confessing your sins to others, but to stop doing them altogether. Belief in Messiah alone is not enough to get you into heaven - Matthew 7:21-23, John 3:3, John 3:36 (ESV is the best translation for John 3:36). Contemplate how the Roman empire fulfilled the role of the beast from the sea in Revelation 13. Revelation 17 confirms that it is in fact Rome. From this we can conclude that A) Jesus is the Son of God and can predict the future or make it happen, B) The world leaders/nations/governments etc have been conspiring together for the last 3000+ years to accomplish the religion of the Israelites C) History as we know it is fake. You don't really need to speculate though because you can start a relationship with God and have proof. Call on the name of Jesus and pray for Him to intervene in your life. - Revelation 3:20
      Revelation has been unfolding since Jesus died. The Popes have claimed to be equal to God and set themselves in Jesus' place (antichrist(s)). Vatican City (Which is its own nation BTW) have risen up to fulfill the role of the false prophet
      Regarding the man of lawlessness or antichrist, 2 Thessalonians 2:4 says “Who opposes and exalts himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sits in the temple of God, showing himself that he is God.” The restrainer that the Apostle Paul was referring to in 2 Thessalonians was the Western Roman Emperor, who held back the Popes from taking power. Once the last Western Roman Emperor was removed from power in 476 AD, the Pope was given civil and ecclesiastic authority over Rome; healing the deadly head wound of the beast in Revelation 13, as they took the Emperors title of Pontifex Maximus, leader of the church and state.
      “We may according to the fullness of our power, dispose of the law and dispense above the law. Those whom the Pope of Rome doth separate, it is not a man that separates them but God. For the Pope holdeth place on earth, not simply of a man but of the true God.” (Source: “Decretals of Gregory IX,” Book 1, chapter 3.)
      Pope Pius V blasphemed, “The Pope and God are the same, so he has all power in Heaven and earth.” (Source: Pope Pius V, quoted in Barclay, Cities Petrus Bertanous Chapter XXVII: 218.)
      Pope Leo XIII declared, “We hold upon this earth the place of God Almighty.” (Source: Pope Leo XIII Encyclical Letter, June 20, 1894)
      The antichrist sea beast of Revelation points to the office of the papacy, the Popes of Rome, who controlled the Roman beast for 1,260 years, from 538-1798 AD.
      Daniel 7:25 says “And he shall speak great words against the most High, and shall wear out the saints of the most High, and think to change times and laws: and they shall be given into his hand until a time and times and the dividing of time.” The Popes of Rome spoke against Elohim and proclaimed to be God. They reigned for 1,260 years, from 538-1798 AD. during which they caused tens of millions of saints to be killed.
      The Pope’s title is Vicar of Christ, which in Latin is ‘Vicarius Filii Dei’, and equates numerically to the number 666

    10:33 - I had an idea. What if you kept that walled mountain as before. Do a slope into the bottom, and create a drain exit where the water can push out into the ocean? And the city is pushed further away from the coast, with another mountain, except this time, you create a bunch of drain exits near the end where the water drains into the bottom, and filters itself out into the ocean like the first one?

    You might be interested to know about the Vajont dam disaster in Italy. The area surrounding the dam was deemed geologically unstable but the company running the dam purposely hid this from authorities. They were expecting a landslide and a resulting Tsunami of around 25 metres high and thought the dam could block the Tsunami. Because of this they did not inform the villages in the below valley. Turns out the landslide was a lot larger than expected and it resulted in a mega tsunami that went over the dam and into the valley below causing around 2000 deaths. The dam still exists today, though it's no longer in operation.
