[Top 100] I Covered 89% of Wellington in Roads For This Score - Mini Motorways

  • In all honestly, outside of a perfect run, 10K trips might be impossible to complete now... we min-maxed our way to covering nearly 90% of the map in roads and that still wasn't enough.

    I was playing this game trying to make a beautiful interconected city, with cool roundabouts and traffic lights, a motorway here and there...
    Turns out the true objective is segregation LMFAO.

      Only 4 people have gotten 10K on this map so far, so it's likely impossible unless you get a perfect run :(

    5:12 I was like the whole time "put a road next to the mountain. Put a road next to the mountain. If it's not a blue spawn, a green spawn is gonna F you up and cut you off. Put. A. Road. Next. To. The. Mountain." And then it happened. I think I am traumatized by this map.

      That's definitely one of the major injuries I took in this run - for future runs, I think I'll be making sure to always have roads available to preplan that route... Might have saved me a tunnel, which would have saved me at the end of the game. Crazy how it all compounds like that, one mistake at 5 minutes ends the game at 50 minutes

    It would be interesting if a patch came out where cars or houses had say in their path. Like, they typically choose the closest store, but if congested they take an alternate route. Might actually make grid strats feasible.

      Not only that, but motorways that used to be the solution to all of your problems are now just a partial solution that you can't rely on for everything. You gotta think with tunnels, bridges, and motorways in mind!

    • @Retroflux
      @Retroflux  2 роки тому +2

      At what point, and with what motivation would I have to rework it? At the end of the game it's a solid line from top to bottom, and rates weren't an issue until well past the time that I'd have the ability to change the route. I can see a world where I connect light blue to the right side of the double destination when installing the highway for cream at 3K points (27:39), but as soon as that highway goes in, that option disappears, and is completely impossible at 5K points. I'd be lying if I said that I have that kind of foresight lol
      That all being said, this option can be used in future games for double destination spawns in that area, so, it might even be one of the best strategies if you have the time/resources to plan it!

    • @jaxelt1

      The tiles are squares, but they act like octagons! Not sure what the benefit would be in turning a driving game into a shape that isn't divisible by 4 - you'd have to sacrifice some of the cardinal or orthogonal directions for it work!
