The actual last ever episode of Mini Motorways? Mini Motorways is a highway engineering puzzle game and in this video I, a highway designer of 10 years, see if my real life engineering skills help me become better at the Mini Motorways puzzle game by taking everything I have learned so far to the extreme to fix bad traffic!

I love how homeowners can just spin their houses round when you put a road in their backyard. Everyone thought the building code was daft to require a swiveling foundation, but it pays dividends later on.

[@Madnessnunky]

From what I recall reading about this game, demand increases linearly over time, so single color shops get harder and harder to satisfy when they are the ONLY one on the map. If you did this same strategy but opened up space for new shops in specific places, the overall demand would get spread out and you need fewer cars per location to keep the timers down. Green may need 10 cars per second, but split over three shops would mean some 2-3 houses per could keep up no problem.

[@nomirrors3552]

Spot on

[@GummieI]

Wouldn't have been as fun though tbh

[@alburito7889]

Liking so matt sees

[@Furcoon]

I thought demand would get harder if they is only 2 or 1 shops on the whole map. so that is why with many shops its easy to keep the demand low for shops. You gain more points that way also.

[@Nukepositive]

So it's a parable about how a city based on car traffic is ultimately doomed to failure? I dig it.

[@RhombonianKnight]

Motorway Matt starting off with a map with the strongest shape roadways? Perfection.

[@havnmartin]

Yeah

[@garcipat]

No then it should be hexagons, because hexagons are the bestagons

[@RhombonianKnight]

@@garcipat hexagons are made of the strongest shape, therefore the strongest shape prevails.

[@adamt195]

Yeah other people have tried the fill in the whole map method. The problem is the game continues to pile on the growing demand into the 2 shops, so traffic will always get you. Especially with the double stores, they are worse on traffic than singles. When the demand starts building up alot, its best to delete some roads in the spot where you want a new shop to spawn and a spot nearby for new houses.

[@highpath4776]

Poss could have re-routed the purples and greens into their side of the shop/s

[@mr.e6289]

should have made a grid design, that way there are always places for houses to spawn but not big enough to let other places spawn. true they will be slow to move like that

[@mu77er51]

I hope he sees this because I really want to see this in a future video.

[@theductductgoose]

@@mu77er51 p sure he's done a grid before

[@ShrubScotland]

Unlimited road level would have been perfect for a grid design! Missed opportunity. (Yes I know he’s done a grid design before but he had trouble controlling where the buildings spawned because he didn’t have enough roads previously.)

[@morgant5680]

the cambridge engineering course is kicking my butt rn but hearing rce say "hello fellow engineers" makes it all worth it

[@theroadstopshere]

The mighty tarmac oceans cover all empty space, their sheer size dwarfing cars and slowing their drivers to a crawl as they shake in awe and fear of the lawless, lane-less hell of infinite tarmac. A traffic flow manager's worst nightmare, but a construction company's wet dream!

[@Keegerwocky]

I think it was a great idea, but it was executed poorly. perhaps a better strategy would have been to build a grid, the spaces in which are too small for anything but houses to spawn.

[@madkirk7431]

Blocking more buildings from spawning actually just makes the existing ones get more and more demanding and eventually the pins build up like f**king crazy, forcing a game over. It's kinda odd, actually.

[@lonelyPorterCH]

13/09/21 oh wow, that was recordee a long time ago^^

[@better.better]

I would say do this: grid the map tight enough that malls can't spawn, but houses can, but in quads, bounded by 2 parallel "highways" with a gap enough between for houses. leave or open up space at each major intersection for a mall, so in the center North South East and West. I would also try roundabouts at Major intersections but nowhere else.

[@MaskOfLoki634]

You should have brought the purples' in from the left and green from the right. There was a lot of traffic happening in the parking lot from the green and purples fighting to get in and out

[@tropicalvikingcreations]

That isn't a bad strategy but you needed to open up more space at a time along the sort of highway in TBE center so it could spawn a bunch more houses at the time. It seems to have a sort of rate for demand to supply but idk what it is.
