Hey! So I loved what you've done! I had struggled with making roundabouts in the center of the city, but it never occurred to me to make the whole center it's own roundabout... Genius! I'm so glad how it turned out, and you even added the that long highway near the bottom, which corresponds perfectly to my original plan of adding a pure tourist area... I very much enjoyed this video and this series, I'm glad I was able to give you a bit of a challenge too, hopefully it wasn't too hard, lol... Anyway, Thank you so much! And I'll be looking forward to your next video!

Congrats on the sub goal! As much as I like some other CS streamers, I've been asking them to look at things like fixing issues in people's cities as I find that interesting, and of course, helpful to understanding how I might fix my issues (without tunneling everywhere, or using asteroids). Anyway, you doing some of this content helped me find a new personable, engaging KZbinr to watch. Looking forward to continuing great things in the future!

the reason they don't have stuff like tmpe integrated into the game already is the cpu load it causes. On a high end gaming PC it's insignificant because it can just shift the load to different cores, but on low end systems and consoles you have very limited processing power and a heavy AI can crush the performance.

I can't explain how happy I am that you did a full vanilla fix, I play on console and unless you do small pockets and not a large central city. Traffic quickly becomes the bane of your existence. Anything above 120K pop and the traffic just becomes so bad trucks get stuck. Then the good/customer flood happens and building start shutting down. Then it Smithville turns into meteorville and restart.

The trick to playing without traffic mods is that you need to consider the purpose of every lane. If your road doesn't narrow or split at some point, only two lanes of the the six lane roads are actually used because the others don't lead to anywhere different. (Well, the trick is that you shouldn't try to build Brasilia. Brasilia is a terrible city.)

Guys, one of the best tips I ever received for trains and certain roads to certain buildings, is to use off ramps. For example, NEVER put a train station (trains, not metro,) directly on your train tracks. Every train that stops at the station, if the tracks only run through the station, will stop all the trains behind it. What you want to do is build the station next to your train line, then split the tracks into two so one track goes straight past the station and the other breaks off the main track to enter the station set off to the side. Let trains pick which they want, as most of them will likely pass by the train station. You can sometimes do similar things for certain roads.

I think the real question is, why the traffic mods, move object and road mods ect are not just real option of the game? Because the traffic mods are really helpful and they have so many mods we can't use on console it's hard to play and create something really nice without mods. Its possible but really hard.
@EricLS
@EricLS 5 жыл бұрын
Le Uman I think it’s performance issues. The mods slow things down quite a bit. Biffa has a MUCH more powerful PC than any console, particularly because a lot of the traffic stuff is CPU bound, where a PC is just astronomically more capable. The other side of the coin is just how over detailed things get with mods like MoveIt. They allow for incredibly stupid stuff to happen, and can essentially cheat things like full landfills and such. All that said, at least a few traffic manager features, specifically lane management and simple yield signs would be huge.

The biggest overlook and neglected feature for Vanilla traffic control is using both sides of the road. It is too easy to overlook branching off both left and right which can split the traffic into both left and right. In this respect, the roundabout is highly ineffective unless properly lane configured. Even then, it does not take advantage of inline lanes. Look up herringbone and Square-a-bouts by twistedmelon in the workshop to see compact but visually appealing roads with extremely high traffic flow on pure vanilla, no DLC play.

You cant change the junctions on Switch, the traffic flow tool isn't available... the terraforming tool is not included too. And you don't have % of traffic flow, only the colours over the street. Anyway, I have played like 180hs on Switch, with 5 cities over 110000 population. The Switch version limit is 142000 people, after that the buildings keep plopping but the population rises and goes down between 141200 and 142000.

There's one thing you can do faster in vanilla: 1) Click all lights on road to remove them (not sure if [1] is actually required) 2) Click on road and mark it as "main road" (auto sets stop signs)

For vanilla players I'd suggest going to keyboard mapping in settings and create a shortcut key to get to the junctions/or that routing button used to change the traffic lights and stop signs. It's much easier than finding it to click on.

22:09 I would actually try a long diverging diamond instead of a big roundy. I found they work super well. With the diverging diamond, instead of intersections to cross, I would recommend just swooping one lane over the other with no intersections. If that makes sense...
@Dacipleinc
@Dacipleinc 4 жыл бұрын
Diverging diamond is the best exchange for exits. I just doubt Biffa wanted to manually build one. In Vanilla you have to build it yourself and it takes a long while to learn how to do it and then redo it over and over lol. I have about 6 in my city all hand built, getting pretty good at building them! They rock!

@@Dacipleinc That's fair. I've had a lot of success with timed traffic lights on the DD's as well. I think that is key to making them work. Timed flow from right to left and left to right so you never get backed up traffic through your back intersection in either direction (if that makes sense).

I know this video is 2 years old but I just wanted to say that when it comes to that pesky lane switching in vanilla/console one thing you could do is to add in a bunch of nodes by just adding a bunch of cheap roads along the highway (just stack them up to the best CS will let you) and then delete them less abrupt turns along the highways and many intersections would help a lot too, ( and I may not be the best at making a beautiful city but those jagged highways killed me on the inside). The games AI will see those as more places to change lanes where the sims will do that in a more natural looking way and it has the added benefits of 1) sims not crossing all the way across the highway to change lanes and 2) giving the AI more options to change lanes so the sims are less likely to get in one another's way (its vanilla it's still going to happen a LOT, but noticeably less) so even with those awful, awful cloverleaf intersections giving more nodes to the AI makes a massive difference in preventing backups with those and other intersections. And even in vanilla the logic of using a few lanes as necessary still rings true because you don't want to confuse the AI with too many options because that's when you start to see the sims all using the same lane to go multiple places. I did see a fair amount of intersections nearby the elevated roundabouts that had a fair amount of pedestrians crossing and hampering traffic flow and I would like to point out that in every version of CS elevated pedestrian pathways over particularly busy intersections is a *must*. And lastly the only thing that killed me in this video is that the original city did not follow roadway hierarchy at all in the slightest, now that isn't something that'll make the biggest difference when it comes to traffic flow but it does go in line with having as few lanes as necessary. And if these techniques are implemented correctly, you can have a city on this very same map with a population between 60k & 70k with over or approaching %90 traffic flow.

The cargo train spawn point at about 21:00 when you move the clogged cargo train seems a bug. It seems to remember every cargo truck to infinity, likely the 64k limit or the games array. I would think this should be marked as failed deliveries, and cause despawns instead when bulldozed/moved. Maybe the devs left it this way to keep the city stable, but I think it would be better to despawn and let them respawn instead. You may end up with a few failure icons, but I think the city would survive with very little issues in the long run. But if you let it run for a while, it eventually stops spawning and the moved cargo station is still operating normally, so it just doubles traffic for a little while. I run into this issue when helping others on the forums for several years. So this has been around for a long time.

You can speed up vehicles entering cargo hubs and such in vanilla. After placing the hub, redo the roads so you have the streets turning into the station. This makes it so they dont slowdown so much to turn in because they are driving more directly into the hub
