    • @namelessfellow
      @namelessfellow 7 місяців тому +1

      I ran the numbers (see the CSⅡ guides on steam, "Efficient Grids") and hexagons are pretty bad for density, actually. Having 6 corners like that just ends up making the zoning horrible, so they're surprisingly bad overall.
      Much better, if you want something gridded, to do something like herringbone that can have only 3-way junctions while still using only 90° angles.

    Don't forget the scenic view walkways for the pedestrians to gaze at the awe of your engineering wonders! One long, winding "walking path" that leads to a single park on a towering plateau, after it snakes above the whole city. (Not the fake "walking road" one, the actual "walking path" from the landscaping tools area. Has covered bridge walkways for some decorations.) Don't forget to take them on a "River walk", to get a "taste of industry", from the air. Possibly a few passes weaving through the windmill intersection too!

    In CS2, they changed traffic AI so that it considers distance, junctions and few other stuff, meaning that it may be possible not many vehicles will use the new intersection. At least, it should stop residents from taking that entrance. I hope many trucks will use it.

There may be a little catch-up to do before building comes, but now that there's more structures in cities and settlements and such, there might be a lot of content available for a Real Civil Engineer.

    Matt should build a wall around architect island, then install the "prettiest" buildings as well to ensure that we can keep them occupied while he builds a masterpiece. Just dont forget about the poo powered water system to feed the island.

    "Pretty Cool Junction (obviously designed by an Architect)."
    "Shoving some parts down (Like a first-year Architect student). Even this low level of architecture will make people very happy."
    "Destroy's functional housing (Engineer) to add in an aesthetic park (Archetect)."
    Have we been secretly watching the Real Civil Architect Channel this whole time?
