How to Create a Realistic Multi-Sports Complex in Cities Skylines 2

I’ll show you all the tips and tricks to create a realistic sports complex in this Cities Skylines 2 gameplay. It’ll have a ton of variety - baseball, softball, football, lacrosse, basketball, indoor sports and more. This complex was designed by drawing inspiration from a number of similar facilities throughout Florida.
We will get some support and service buildings in place as well as some parks. There will be a lot of detailing involved today and we’ll make the most of the tools made available by the community of talents modders and we’ll create something really spectacular.

Amazing, an incredible build. The children's adventure park detail is on point with the bark chippings, I too played on concrete, ouch!

[@piccana_]

Thanks very much mate,. Yeah, and I've still go the scars to prove it haha.

[@MateriaGirl]

I'm really loving your videos. I said this before but I really, really like that your city is designed around fun visual features. I tend to play smaller scale and more dense and these videos are making me more likely to take time to make individual areas have a more specialized personality or purpose, and are really good visual showcases of how to use the game to make fun stuff. I like a lot of detailer videos but they tend to be more "practical" and "down to earth", versus "big wiggly pond with houses all around it" or "fully decorated auto yard taking up 4 city blocks of space". I haven't even watched the video yet. I just saw it and went "Oh yay a new Piccana video!" which is something I also do with CPP and frankly you deserve as many followers imo

[@piccana_]

Thank you so much!!! Love that's it's giving you ideas to try something new. ☺️ So cool to know folks are looking forward to the videos going out. Really gives me motivation to get them done. Thanks again ☺️👍👍

[@sully_skylines]

Incredible build mate, so much gone into this 👏

[@piccana_]

Cheers man, appreciate that bud. Yeah, a bit too much for what I'm aiming to do in an episode. But once you start, you know.... 😂😂

[@miketoronto8308]

Awesome stuff again, glad you got the CPP shoutout on stream!

[@piccana_]

Cheers Mike. Yeah, how cool was that! Made my day 😊

[@hkan_theswed]

This is magic. Just puré magic couldnt imagine that it was possible. Just fantastic. If I should build this it Will Take me a year hopfuly and lots of new gray hair.

[@piccana_]

Haha. Only a few gray hairs for me this week 🤣 Cheers bud ☺️👍

Nice one Ryan, welcome in. Thanks so much 😊👍

You’ve done it again mate. The attention to detail is just exceptional. Keep up the great work, hope you reach 5k in the upcoming month, you deserve it!

[@piccana_]

Thank you Mart! Appreciate it mate. Some way to go for 5k though ☺️👍

[@anthonyortali3260]

I really like your use of custom areas. If you have the "Extra Networks and Areas" mod installed, you can use the "park area", "walking area", or "hang out area" to let your cims use the huge new custom areas. I really can't wait for 2 things in mods: proper copy and paste so you can build something once and copy every bit of it as you like, and either export function in ctrl-c or move it mod. The game is now at a place where you really can get creative if you want or spend a ton of time getting your services all built and functional without bankrupting your city or any combo that makes you happy.

[@piccana_]

Do the hang out/park areas etc work ok for you? I tried using them a while back in the beach build but the cims never used them. Yeah, once we have custom assets this game will really shine. Hopefully we get them soon 🤞

[@anthonyortali3260]

@@piccana_ I've seen them use park areas, but I can't be sure about the other ones. It seems to work best for me if I make the new park area completely cover the entire area from edge to edge rather than when I tried to make them hang out on patios and use grass as parks, if that makes sense.

[@piccana_]

@@anthonyortali3260 Gotcha! I'll have a look again ☺️👍

[@pcsproshop8972]

What great ideas! thank you for sharing them :)

[@piccana_]

You're very welcome, thanks so much. 😊👍

[@Gizmo_Nugget3397]

you know what would be nice. if we can put our own logo designs in the game lol

[@piccana_]

I guess you could. But you would need to speak nicely with someone making decals. I can think of someone in the discord that could do that 😊

[@neilbuttery3981]

Absolutely stunning build buddy. I am definitely stealing some of those ideas.

[@piccana_]

Cheers Neil. Appreciate that man. Go make them your own now, no worries 😊👍

[@neilbuttery3981]

@@piccana_ I’ve started to use your techniques to build a more British style complex with a to scale cricket pitch and trying to work out how to make rugby posts (until ctrlC mod crashed my game and sent me to bed)!

[@piccana_]

That sounds class, would love to see that if you manage to get it done 👍

[@jamesdeadthrone6689]

Amazing work pal 👌 give me some real inspiration for sure. I think a big retail complex would accompany this very well as a sport leisure and retail mega centre 👍 great vid as always man

[@piccana_]

Love that James!. Yeah, definitely scope for a few big developments over here. 👍

[@bjroo]

the baseball fields!

[@piccana_]

☺️👍

[@MrKork1]

We need a proper stripmall! That is essential for a Floridian build.

[@piccana_]

I think you're right! Defo need some in here. ☺️👍

[@MrKork1]

Would be great to see one squeezed inbetween some low residential adjacent to a highway.

[@woods1792]

The mio road asset pack has a pedestrian road only one unit wide isn't the best looking but saves more space.

[@piccana_]

Ah nice. I'm not using any custom assets mods in this city. But I'll likely start another city soon for a smaller build more short-term build and get quite a few of them in. ☺️👍

[@woods1792]

@@piccana_ Ahh okay

[@gawel772]

Great videos!!! Why don't you change antialliasing method? Edges are flickering so badly

[@piccana_]

Cheers I'll have a look 😊👍

[@80aj]

Your props are leaving and coming back because of your culling settings. You need to put them down to around 30 and also put never allow accidental culling.

[@piccana_]

Hi. Had a check, anarchy settings are set as that already. Got a timestamp for where it's happening? I'll have a look, cheers.

[@user-Saurman]

Дякую за відео і роботу 👍 Побудуйте студентське містечко без машин , шкода що в цій грі люди не грають в теніс чи будь який інший спорт .

[@piccana_]

Thanks for the idea, could be challenging one that 😊👍

[@MateriaGirl]

You use loads of surfaces in this city. Are you scared of save corruption? I had some major issues with saev corruption for a bit before I learned custom surfaces count as "new assets" and, as those arent supported, the game can implode from them. I would love to use surfaces again but I'm scared of them now. :( Have you ever had any trouble loading and had to revert back?

[@piccana_]

No issues so far. Fingers crossed it will stay that way 😂

[@DeckDog]

I was wondering, I don’t even know if it’s possible they have mods. Would there be a possibility to build a little military base like either a naval base or an Air Force Base or some kind of army base that would be kind of cool in the city and if it was able to be a naval base, it gives some kind ofpop to the shoreline or to the bay area just wondering thank you

[@piccana_]

Yes, 100% it could be done. It's been on my list since I put the ship yard in, I've got a fair idea on what assets to use too. So much to do and not enough time unfortunately 😂

[@PolaProductionsUK]

yoooo

[@SprayPaintaNick]

Do the sims use the custom made assets ?

[@piccana_]

Nah, sadly not. They don't really use the normal ones we get with the game either in fairness, other than doing an exercise animation. 👍

[@SprayPaintaNick]

@piccana_ hopefully we can make that a reality with the modding community one day. Your build looks amazing regardless!!

[@piccana_]

I know folks would love to see it, so yeah, maybe one day. Thanks so much mate, appreciate that. ☺️👍

[@anthonyortali3260]

@@piccana_ Look in the "Extra Networks and Areas" mod, you can designate any or all of the custom area as parks so they will get some use. The vanilla parks don't have the animated uses we would like to see either, but these extra area tools at least allow us to get some people in the custom areas. You can also place some of the small vanilla parks along your pedestrian roads and use better bulldozer to remove the fences or other bits and bobs but leave the "park" so people will congregate.

[@ribzao]

Like.. Name map? Tyyyyy

[@piccana_]

Thank you. It's a vanilla map. Sunshine Peninsula 👍
