    Just a heads up, there is nothing wrong with overeducating your citizens, sure they will try and find a better job but unless they can find one, they will gladly fill the slot of an undereducated sim.

    48:26 Having a metro line connecting the two bus terminals would make the green line obsolete. But seeing green is at max capacity already and creating jams for the other busses, I think it's safe to say that it would be beneficial. There's just too many people at this point that are now served with the green busline. I'm pretty sure it's a good idea. But you do you and have fun with things 😄
    48:17 The cargo station; If you need your trucks being less occupied for a long time, this might work.
    It won't add more traffic, but it is more clustered. If you choose to set it up: It helps to avoid having any buildings facing the road that connects the cargo train station with the nearest roundabout. Otherwise the traincargo-parade is going to clash with garbagecollecting and trucks delivering and picking things up at those buildings.
    I hope this helps and I am happy with the frequent episodes of this series ☺

    Hi man, love your videos they're really laid back and relaxed. It's quite weird how just playing the game normally is such a refreshing break from other kinds of City Skylines Content, but the blend of QoL mods is just the perfect balance. Hope you know a lot of people appreciate what you do!

    30:09 Trees block noise. So it's a good thing you have a bit of extra space to get trees in there.

    • @SlateTiara
      @SlateTiara Рік тому +4

      And as always the beter ideas come later. High density commerial Is prett loud for low density residential somehow. Offices and trees are perfect for inbetween. They both absorb noise. As for removing props from buildings, that's what BOB is for. It is a mod that allows you to change everything. Like removing parking, changing or removing unwanted trees, even changing colors on the building itself.

    • @RustyWalker
      @RustyWalker Рік тому +4

      This includes roads that have trees on them already. They buffer a small amount of noise too.

    Trains are a big help for traffic and ease of product delivery. I've usually split the lines as far back as possible into a cargo line and a passenger line just to keep them separate to prevent a train traffic jam.

  • @diamon999

    High density commercial generates more noise. Residents shouldn't be living so close.
    Live Oak tree barriers are quite effective for combat noise levels. Offices are better noise barriers providing jobs, taxes, land value, of course.

  • @EstianJansevanRensburg
    @EstianJansevanRensburg Рік тому +6

    I find in my cities I'd rather zone twice the amount of low density commerce than zone high density commerce. High density commerce creates far too much noise pollution. I know you like to micromanage, but you can set policies for all the districts in your city at the same time by not selecting any of them. Very useful for. Restricting building heights and then only allowing your city core to have unlimited building height.

    Hi, love your content, keep up the good work.
    About the bus taking the left lane before turning right (00:28:10) I think it's because of their size, vehicles like buses and trucks can't turn like 4-seat vehicles, they need bigger turns so they don't crash to the sidewalk.

  • @gaguiar
    @gaguiar Рік тому +1

    You should definitely build the cargo train station by the farm industry. Besides being faster than your current infrastructure, it will also relieve a lot of the strain on the trucks, which will make the delivery of goods much better.
    As for the metro, I should you should avoid it for now and build a more solid bus network, which is lacking in the city. Perhaps using a tram system to connect all the suburbs together and to the downtown, while expanding bus lines to the inner parts of the suburbs would help with the traffic problem

    Does your traffic change with the day/night cycle noticeably?
    I went to the Uclan in Preston which was a former polytechnic to do a BSc in Biology. I think all of the British polys were given the ability to offer degrees.
    The CBS would work very well in that location since you're using multi-stops on the roadside at the moment.
    I don't know if I mentioned this already in one of the other videos, but if you have quiet stops that aren't pulling passengers, see if a 3 block by 3 block sub-district around the stop with a free public transport fills some of those seats. The bus is there anyway so it doesn't technically cost anything extra to give away unsold seats and get some more cims out their cars.
    One of the cool things about Industries is that they all unlock a factory at L2 that only requires resources from their own specialty. After that, they need their own specialty plus one other, which with the exception of the lemonade factory that needs glass, will be plastic, so doing oil now is a good idea.
    Oil doesn't deplete too fast if you don't go mad with extractors at the beginning and sell all the resource without processing it. Instead, make sure you add lots of storage and set it to fill and keep that oil until you can process it and then use it in factories. You can't place the storage all at once though or the game'll order most of the oil from external cities and charge you.
    The top 3 policies in City Planning are worth running globally once your city hits a certain level. Give them a try in your non-live version and watch your commercial and industrial income to see if it changes significantly. The next one, high tech housing, has a cost, but in return for that your residential happiness gets a serious boost, usually enough for them to upgrade a level straight away. Unlike changing district styles, they don't rebuild when you apply it if I remember correctly. Again, worth double checking in your non-live game.
    I think there is a 4+3 asymmetric road in the base game if you need 2 straight on lanes. Granted you'd lose the bus lane altogether for that section. Another option is to make your own 4+3 in asset manager with 2 bus lanes so you can have a bus only left and right on routes with lots of buses. Asset manager isn't that scary at making custom roads that do exactly what you want. You can change where your cycle lanes are too if you wanted to.
    Matching up vehicle restrictions to lane arrows is a bit of an art there lol.
    With your buildings not having all the bits, part of me suspects that it's a lot size problem and what you are seeing is a variant for smaller lots. I suspect that a 4x4 lot would have them, so keep an eye out to see if there are any on full size lots.
    With arenas, they produce surges of cims in large volumes, so put them on a frontage road and never directly on a main road, with good PT round it to spread the cims out. Large volume destinations like this are valid stops for high capacity transport where you can ignore the one-per-tile guideline.
    With a CTT, the terminal is best served by a one-way road and being placed on the right of the road when you have righthand drive traffic. Otherwise loading and unloading vehicles have a habit of crossing each other and clogging the terminal up.

  • @grundergesellscahftmkii6196
    @grundergesellscahftmkii6196 Рік тому +2

    yeah I agree that metro could come later. if you emphasize on rail-based transport, maybe consider using tram for now.

    • @RustyWalker
      @RustyWalker Рік тому +1

      Yep. Metro is a type of high capacity transport that basically should be used from one tile to another like rail and monorail (as well as all the others like ships and planes that are from off the map). Buses, trolleybuses, and trams distribute cims from high capacity transport into neighborhoods and other areas. Buses and trolleybuses are most effective on relatively short routes that stop every 2 or 3 blocks. Trams about twice that.

    Re: the bus lanes. In some cities you can have the far right bus lane turn left, they usually just have a unique set of lights for them blocking traffic but allowing the bus. No idea if you can do that in skylines, but that *is* a thing irl.

  • @RAI-1911

    You can plop a building without RICO, but you must zone the grid before you plop it or else they will disappear, also if you put too high level buildings and the land value is low, they will struggle...

    Train Stations for goods is a very good way to get your goods in and out of the city.

So be aware when you build it!

    I don't think anyone would mind if you added some oil on by the beach. Also some high tier agricultural buildings need plastic to operate so cargo train between oilfields and Crown Farms would be great.

  • @dinoj2082
    @dinoj2082 Рік тому

    The Cargo station near the Farm will decrease the truck traffic going onto the Highway but that doesn't seem like too much of an issue. There is a hub you will get that combines the rail and harbor cargo station that would be really useful near your oil area. Without a cargo hub there, you'll have an enormous amount of truck traffic in your suburb. If you do the Cargo station near the farm you should create a bypass for trains to go around your cargo hub - you have the room for this between your farms and the river.
    In my games, after I start building Metro stations and Tram lines, I really reduce the number of bus lines I have so would think the stand alone metro would be better - I usually build a passenger train station to bring in intercity trains. I'll keep one bus station up so I can run intercity busses and maybe keep one or 2 lines. I hate the way the busses all fill up the streets together. I know it reduces traffic but don't like the look.

    You can add offices as a buffer from noise pollution between residential and commercial buildings. But offices may be an issue till you have enough highly educated residents. Trees also help with noise pollution visually and logically.
    Also having parks next to other parks is very inefficient and residents further away can't utilize the parks.

  • @NexusNoxCS
    @NexusNoxCS Рік тому +3

    Darren, I just wanted instead of the usual game-related suggestions offer some critique and feedback on how you are doing as commentator and entertainer. There is a habit you have developed over time and it can be bad or good depending on how much you rely on it. It is something you do a lot, but this episode especially there was a lot. The problem is two-fold. 1) You explain a problem in specific, long-winded detail, even offering solutions and then doing nothing to leave it "for now". 2) You keep re-explaining your plans for the far future many times over and then once again doing nothing. Again, sometimes it works wonders to catch people up on a long series and give an idea of where its going. However, the more you keep doing it, especially combining the two back to back -- the harder it is to pay attention. Even more so if the series is relatively new and there have been similar descriptions every other episode. This very episode you spent a third of it at the beginning explaining one single particular thing and leaving it "just for now" and then reiterating you plans for the future tile expansion once again. I am not trying to be negative or anything, it's more about giving some feedback to be mindful of this habit. Anyways, nice episode as always, keep up the good work! Cheers!

    In the options menu of the game, under gameplay, there's an option to change the color of ground pollution.
    One selectable color is literally "none" and it makes the nuclear wasteland just normal Ground.
    Most importantly, it keeps the smog you most desperately want.

    While someone else was very kind in their criticism, I will not be. You spend and inordinate amount of time identifying an issue finding a solution, and then never following through. That is ineffective game play. When your upgraded to small city you played around with buildings, instead of dealing with the fire fighting helicopter depot, or revisiting the crematorium debate you had with yourself. You have formed a habit in every episode of doing something like that, and it is becoming harder to watch.
    I suggest, at the end of each video, make note of every problem you identified and discussed in nauseating detail, and promptly discarded then add them to a solve first to do list. Tackle those before you spend ten minutes on a tangent introducing some other problem. The odds are the game play will improve, and in some cases actually happen. This was 85% commentary.
    Also plant trees near the bus station.

      Thats alright thanks for the feedback. Sorry if you feel I’m playing ineffectively, but the city grows, I make money in game and I’m having fun. This isnt a super optimal playthrough, or guide to efficiency, I would assume most people see that. But if I spend a while discussing something and then dont do it, thats my bad, and you’re right to point it out. I make notes before each episode but rarely after, so thats a good tip so I dont forget things I mention. Will make a note to do the crematorium. The fire issue I actually dont consider a real problem as the fires are always put out, but it’s certainly something I’ll have to add eventually. I didnt feel like there’s a natural place for a helicopter depot yet. Probably just havent planned ahead enough to consider where it will go.
