➤Cities Skylines Industries:
In one of the most in-depth expansions in Cities: Skylines history, Industry becomes a larger and more meaningful part of the game with this expansion. Players can customize their industrial areas with supply chains for the four different resource types and unique factories. Well managed industry areas will level up and become more efficient. Aside from production chains, there is a new city service for handling mail and the cargo airport eases import and export of factory goods. There are FIVE new maps, new policies, new city services, new buildings (including resource extractors, manufacturers, warehouses and unique factories) and more.
Key Features:
- MAKE IT HAPPEN
Follow your products from harvesting to processing, storage and production, then transport them to commercial zones or export to other cities.
- CAPTAIN YOUR OWN INDUSTRIES
Define an area with the industry area tool and place highly specialized industrial buildings to build and manage the production chain from raw material extraction up to final end product. Industry Areas are divided into four types based on the natural resource they are processing: Farming, Forest, Ore and Oil. These areas can level up upon reaching productions goals and staffing requirements.
- BUILD IT UP, BUTTERCUP
New industrial buildings include Extractors, Warehouse Facilities, Processing and Auxiliary Buildings, Industrial Props and Roads. Unique Factories, such as Food, Toy, Furniture, Car and Electronics produce luxury products, and require a large number of workers, water and electricity as well as input from your industries.
- GO POSTAL
Boost your citizens’ well-being with mail delivery and collection services. Post sorting facilities handle mail between outside connections and the post offices, and new Post Van and Truck vehicles enable the carriage.
- WONK HARD

There's this chap on UA-cam who fixes people's traffic snarls, maybe give him a holler, he might just fix yours, too!
Great idea! :-)
Sam Bur not doing fixes anymore. Wait... oh...
😂😂😂

"Today on fix your cities, a city submitted by... Me..."
Was thinking same thing. "Biffa's Traffic Fix: Biffa Edition."
Lol :-)

im waiting for part 2 and 3 xD
this isn't "fix your city" by Biffa this is "fix my city" by Biffa

Elaine will be delighted.

Fun Fact: Hugo There and Ella Bout dated briefly in high school.
@@qxz1776 Didn't Hugo There eventually marry her sister Rhonda Bout?
@@jodinsan Rhonda Bout has married Hugo Through.
@@jodinsan That's what I heard, but they are now in jail for highway robbery and Ella Bout is gloating. :P lolol
The pond where it says "like and subsrcibe" should be named "Lake Andsubscribe"
20:15 If you create two more roundabouts, you can write "LOL"
It would make sense to just put down a standard university because yours is a dedicated one. Imagine wanting to go to uni and the only option would be art.
"you messed up your lane mathematics at 11:48 as you missed a lane coming back on". Other than that great video and I'm really enjoying the series!
He missed alot of lane mathematics this episode... Like the 3 way intersection goes from 3 lanes to 2 one lane roads in both ends.. OCD triggered
I saw it and literally yelled at my screen XD
@@_cineris got my calculator out and cried
Seems like every road in TeaVille is called Picker Lane.
I though that was Hugo's last name...
Hugo "There" Picker-Lane
"I broke my city's traffic FIVE times and then fixed it by changing the sausage-a-bout into a boom-a-rang-a-bout"

Wow I love it when the let's play turns into a traffic fix video
It's a Fix your city with Biffa and this time he brought his own city :D
Indeed :-)
BYOC!
Man, biffa had a heck of a day. His last days progress was gone then he nearly broke Teaville.
Wonderful vid!
This should've been called... 'Cities: Skylines - 60% traffic!! I fix my own city!!'
Missed a chance for a T-about in Teaville.
What about a Tea-about
@@sky0kast0 A whatabout AND a teaabout!
Yeah, it ended upas an elbowabout.
eventually it will get so complex that the entire city will just be a big circle
Finally new Episode. And nice to see that sometimes the the master is messing the traffic up to.
Yeah :) And he is doing the ridiculous things that average players would do, too. Like building an bypass road or an L-about instead of a proper cloverleaf interchange ^^
I love playing baseball with 5 trees in the infield.
yeah they call it Hardcore mode in Britain, I guess :D
14:22 I bet building an interchange between the two highways on the left that cross over each other would also help! Instead of having to loop all the way around the city?
The reason I watch these kinds of videos, seeing other people also forgetting to turn off prop and tree anarchy.
You should try the "Citizen Lifecycle Rebalance" it really helps with deathwaves, I have used it for about 6months and havent seen a deathwave since.
I recently found that traffic lights and line management ("you go there, you go there and you go there") outperform roundabouts by a lot. don't know why, but I had huge traffice issues with some roundabouts.
timed traffic lights ina huge industrial are is the best thing you can do.
@@Skystalker23 Just like real life.
Best crossover series 2020! It's like when the Arrow visits the Flash, only a lot slower and less murdery.
"People point out to me [Sports Island is] not an island..."
Well, we can soon fix that!
What's your landscaping budget and how do you feel about bridges?

@@MaxxEastick I'm drunk after Horky Borky...
I can't drink that much tea!
10:47 you can have a road go from the one roundabout to the other and eliminate the right turn
I thought the same
Ah, the combination of your City Fix AND your beloved Teaville! A double pleasure! 👍😆☕
It really bothers me that in a game where aesthetics are such a large part of why we play, it isn't easy to adjust the lane alignment when the number of lanes changes. I love lane maths but it's a shame the left lane is the one to disappear like at 16:10
Aesthetics is a large part of why who plays???... Lol
Seriously though, if it bothers you, you can use the Move It mod to make it look better. Biffa just doesn't bother, because fixing aesthetics isn't what he's selling.
I have to agree on this. Look at the highway, it should just align on the left and the right should go off. One should be able to choose the alignment... :D
Surely the easy way round it is to leave 3 lanes running through the junction, but just use lane control at the nodes so that no traffic can use that third lane through the junction. Then it follows the rules of Biffa's Sacred Lane Mathematics™ but also keeps the aesthetics looking nice.
@@stevieinselby That is mostly what I do. (And it really doesn't take more time or effort than updating the highway.) Still I would prefer a second click to change the alignment or some easy fix like that.
at 25:40 !!!!! Genius! I never thought of actually making use of the U-turn at intersections like that before! Let people exit onto a main road like that! Then the main road is now the roundabout! Imagine if the other end of main road was an exit!!!!! So inspired :o
I never commented on your videos or playing Cities Skylines and this is the first time I commented on this. I admit though that watching the traffic fixing was some kind of an ASMR at least for myself. And in this video, it shows that your cities can have some imperfections when it comes to traffic and tried your best to fix it. Keep up the great work mate!
20:20 Congratulations, Biffa. You've made a boot-about!
That was epic Biffa! You broke the heck out of it and it fought you every step of the way... but you persevered and prevailed! Cheers!
Here's a tip Biffa. When you have multi-lane roads coming off a roundabout, it is better to utilize all of those lanes for traffic to exit the roundabout. For example, take a three lane one-way roundabout with two lane approach roads. The lane arrows for each exit should be; outside lane - exit only; median lane - exit or straight on and the inner lane of the roundabout straight ahead on the roundabout, using the lane manager to keep traffic in each of those exiting lanes respectively. Cheers and sippacoffee!
Gotta love the cross promotion with Fix your city.
That was planned, right?
I also cant wait to see how far the now Banana-about is going to mutate.
Seems there won't be a traffic fixing video next time, thanks to Biffa merging videos ;-) Enjoyed that Biffa also get traffic troubles in his own cities!
When you have too many private vehicles going around the city it clearly shows Public transport isn't working efficiently or its time to redo it. use everything you can use, even the cable cars. Bike lanes and walking paths.
Quick Tip: don't force people to go on main roads or highways if it isn't necessary case in point (pls pause at) @24:15 the prospect district, high garden and 2 roundabouts all of them are connected through only one entry exist points, in this case, there should be bridges to connect other sides or some more junctions, walking paths will only allow people but services and trucks for goods need roads. Bridges should be constructed at middle roads between roundabout and dogbone roundabout to right of your screen while one exactly in between two roundabouts.
The new connection at 4:32 created a dummy traffic shortcut to the highway bridge outside city limits, which can be seen at 0:58.
I love this city! It's so beautiful and fits in perfectly with the stunning map. Great work Biffa!
"I've had people point out that it isn't an island because it's connected up here"
Wait until they hear about the Isle of Dogs in London.
Also River Island is a shop that's neither a river nor an island
Nice way to start my Friday morning - Thanks Biffa!
You're welcome :-)
Love the Elbow About, lol. or the Ell About, heh. great fix for an issue. And looks like I was wrong about the highway not being connected and you did repair the connections. hmm. Well done fixing your traffic problems.
Thanx Biffa ! You always provide me a nice distraction from my real world problems. And inspire me to dive back into city building.
Through the course of 10,000 new people joining the fair city of TeaVille, Traffic manager Biffa making sure that everything flows as smoothly as possible, and please remember, not to speed in construction zones, Fines are double when workers present.
20:23 That's one (h)ELL of a roundabout!
Hey Biffa.
You don't need to create a district to stop trucks coming through a section of road. There is a tool for that in the Traffic Manager Mod where you can selected a section of road and say no access for trucks (as well as private vehicle, trash, emergency vehicles, buses etc if you wish). I believe the tool is a car symbol with a red cross through it (second from the right on the top row?). I find it very handy for creating access points for Trash collection without introducing shortcuts for all the other vehicles.
second from the right, bottom row
I seen a few Cities Skylines videos but damn I watch more of your videos than any other lol awesome work man 👍
Thank you Mike Reyes :-)
"Hugo through, Hugo through, and Hugo through"
What did he throw?
@@iwanabana through, not threw
and who is Hugo why did he through? lol.
🤦♂️
Hugo Through, Pick Elaine!
I really like using 4 lane highways because the lane math works out much better. For 4 way interchanges, 2 continue, 1 for left and right. For Y interchanges, 2 for each direction. For T interchanges, 3 continue, 1 for exiting.
Awesome work with traffic. You need to add this one on both playlists.
And the L-about is epic.
Me: Sits down to watch this episode without a cup of tea...
**Hears Biffa's tea stirring intro**
WHAT AM I DOING?
Two minutes later: Much better *sips tea*
I do quite enjoy your banter, a big reason I watch.
OMG it's GREAT to see that even BIFFA needs to FIX his TRAFFIC! I'm glad that he's human.
I have no words for that roundabout you made at around 20:42. You have my laughing so hard. It's been awhile since I laughed that hard.
The first 20 seconds of the video is the most relatable thing I've seen
Not having watched through the whole episode, I am guessing that somewhere the Highway got disconnected somehow and that is why it isn't being used. I seem to recall seeing that happened when you were messing with the carge depots, the last episode, and I assumed you had planned to repair the lost connections. lol. But, I haven't seen the whole episode yet. And the King of Fixing other peoples traffic issues, it is good to see you get ensnared by traffic issues for a change, and I am sure you will have it all running ship shape again
Don't forget about the prop and treat anarchy. The trees in the sports fields are really bugging me
Everyone: Excited that there is a new episode of TeaVille in which Biffa will expand the city even further!
Biffa: Nope, just another episode of fixing traffic, this time in my own city...
😋
20:19 Biffa invents the Boomarang-about
It just goes to show that if you're a master at road construction calculus, that you can still make mistakes here and there. It was nice to see how you handled the clogs!
That boomerang about...oh man. I hate to naysay, but that's just weird and ugly. Especially with the three lane highway near the bottom and the three lane road everywhere else.
"BUILD CONNECTIONS! GIVE PEOPLE OPTIONS! ALL THE TRAFFIC IN THE CITY SHOULD NOT GO THRU ONE JUNCTION!"
There basically needs to be a junction from the NE side of the city straight to the Olympic area and back.
That being said, I'm using your tips in my latest city. 37K pop, tightly gridded, and 87% traffic flow with no despawning. So, yes, you are still awesome!
Hey Biffa, the main issue you had with the L-shaped 'about area was the fact that it was your only junction-exit from the highway. There's one more down the road which only allows the Cims to go off left, while they all want to go right.
Whenever I get to this stage, where I'm fighting traffic issues so much that I'm not effectively managing the rest of the city, that I give up and start again.
@25:23 - fell off my chair laughing...
Good morning,
I just started to what the Teaville series and found the playlist flipped upside down. So the first video is the last in the list.
I really like your videos and try to get some of your tips working n my city.
What You may want to do with Your tiny bridge that people use to cut between highways is changing that whole "district" around the small university to be ONE WAY ROADS only, but not in a straight line. Instead, you want to have them alternate between directions in a straight line, so that local traffic still will have the shortest path through that maze, but everything else will be like "HELL NO, AINT NOBODY GOT TIME FOR THAT!" ;)
I cant believe the road management expert crashed his city 🤣🤣🤣
Awesome video , keep it up, you are hilarious!
Biffa, I was going to comment earlier on your Traffic issue but I watched the video again and I was able to see the root cause of your Traffic nightmare (And you said it too @9:11, delete the connection). When you connected your Sports area to across the river, you opened up a super highway between both areas, which caused all of the traffic issues (gotta love that Skyline traffic algorithm). Of course, the University did not help. I would recommend adding a real highway between those connects to avoid them cutting through the locals (Of course, no room). Now, it looks like you new repairs are just moved your traffic issues to other parts of the city (@25:27 is a perfect example. The Loopers are using it to go back to your new slip road @18:28). BTW, I kind a similar thing in my city, but your video fixes helped!
I have played Sim City online for years and never did play Skylines until 2020. The very common statement I hear as an Admin for Sim City Tips and Tricks (one of the largest SC groups on FB) 'Skylines is better'- after playing Skylines for nearly a 1000 hours, I highly doubt this game is any better at all, traffic is just as glitchy, the buildings look like cartoons and it is very lonely playing it (nothing like SC server play at all and cant compare in this area). CS reminds me of an updated SC4 and I can't see myself playing this for around 15k hours as I have with Cities of Tomorrow. EA created a very good concept- but left it! TY for the videos Biff, I am going back to Minecraft building on my Haloween Village today. Peace out bro!
Trees stuck in buildings and on the sports fields. Green city, I see. Very good, haha! :D
I LOVE that route tool! Used to have to use your imagination to visualize.
Biffa does a traffic fix on his own city! Love it! :)
And here you see Biffa applying all the pro traffic fixes to fix one noob mistake: giving the AI that one bridge that makes them ignore the trains and highways ...
Biffa: fix your city
Also biffa: broke his on cit
If this episode was a movie, it would be The CalamiTeaville Horror. (That's headache-inducing to read but it works much better out loud.) Also nice to hear Hugo There's cousin Hugo Through get a mention.
Think you just need some proper junctions and more of them, at the moment there is only really that 1 junction where they can join back onto the motorway, so they clog up that one route ;)
A Biffa city fix my city?! \o/ Its nice to know sometimes we all go "what the heck am I even doing..."
I think the biggest problem with people's builds in this game is not putting a ring highway around the entire city.
I grew up in a city of around 600,000. It had a ring like this that hooked up with every interstate highway going in all directions. There were maybe five 4 lane roads going E to W and another five going N to S.
Love these longer videos biffa!!!
For some reason the traffic gets quite bad when you pass 20k, before that everything works fine. And beyond 20k you really need to watch your traffic.
It is good to see your builds traffic go wonky. Makes me feel better about my efforts.
17:04 a foot path that connects your bus station to the train station would really help there
I saw your zones around your roundabouts, there is a mod to toggle zones on roads. That way you can remove the zones on the roundabouts and the roads connected to it will have more space for their zoning.
One thing you might try to prevent people from taking local roads as a through route is to make a district out of the area and put Old Town policy on it. Only people who live in the area or are visiting someplace there will be allowed in. This worked very well for me.
I get a bit of Darth Plagueis the Wise vibes from this video; He can fix the traffic in the cities of others but not his own.
11:47 you were kinda asleep today Biffa right? Haha you should have added one lane there, so then further down the road it becomes a 4 lane
Yeah I noticed that as well
One of the best episodes ! laughed a couple times :D
It's nice to see you're human after all! But then you just go and fix it all again :D nice job!
Thank you Samuel J :-)
So the monorail going over the top of the highway was... over the top?
Oh my you didn't do the thing with the direction arrows !
Glad to see you don't think about the lane mathematics and Hugo there and directions arrows when you're playing, makes me feel better about my traffic problems xD
And what about the mandatory passage by the tea farm for all the students of the university? That's a British thing? xD
Wow what a fun episode!!
That L-About is i think properly called an Inner City Ring Road. Just be careful. A one way loop like that (as with a roundabout), is great when all the traffic coming onto it wants to spread out in a somewhat even fashion amongst all the possibble exits, but it really breaks down when it all wants to leave by a few exits, (or it's all coming on from a few entrances for that matter). I suspect it's going to cause you real issues down the road, (pun not intended).
I’ve just noticed that Biffa has made the residents of Teaville drive on the right, and now the earth is about to tilt off its axis....
I think since the city is growing and spreading out a lot more, you need more roads/avenues to connect all the various areas together since it seems like a lot of traffic is being forced into the highway interchanges.
Love the video's! Keep it up!
it's like a fix traffic vid 👍 sip of tea
Hey Biffa, did you ever work with a "fire lane"? At the six lane roads the center lanes only emergency services are allowed to use them. They can make their way around very fast.
It's fun to watch Biffa fixing his own city lol
This is an especially good episode!
I know what you do wrong. You should drink more tea😁
Indeed 👍😁
Great video biffa, grettings from Argentina
“Sausage about” that one had me laughing
Once you master traffic fixing on console, you are pretty much a traffic god
Welcome to T-ville... Where the "T" stands for TRAFFIC....
Fix yourself LOL - loved it! Keep it up Biffa!
:-)
