Thrashing Jon's Mini Motorway Scores | Mini Motorways | 26 Jul 2021

[@matthewf378]

Me at the start of this vod “Dan’s an idiot” 10 mins in “Dan is working on levels I can’t comprehend and is a genius”

[@lakewoodninja]

Also Dan on the inside "AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH pAnIc!"

[@TheOutlawsRifle]

The one where Nerdcubed makes both civil engineers and civil planners breakdown in tears of despair.

[@dinopoloclub]

Wow the RNG was not kind to you 10+ mins in haha. Thanks so much for playing! :D

[@nmills3]

this game is great to look at on the timeline. it's like a time lapse gif of the game

[@maxx_2245]

Mini Metro actually generated GIFs of how the stage progressed in a timelapse. I hope this game does the same thing, I absolutely loved saving those.

[@patrickjd12]

Imagine the sheer insanity if the developers combine mini motorways and mini metro into one game where you have to manage both of them on different layers...

[@ninino86]

I love the "warm" competition between Jon and Dan =D

[@luisa.7021]

Every stream Dan sounds ever so slightly more like Steve lol

[@RepOfAntarctica]

2:02:38 apparently that rule isn't consistent, because I happened to look at the vod at 1:04:05 and saw a green car start on its pre-calculated journey back to its garage, only to do a complete u-turn and take the motorway Dan had JUST built. Apparently they ARE capable of changing their journey, but the game chooses not to if it hasn't disappeared yet. Either that or they'll take motorways over normal roads if given the option.

[@icefly20]

Cars take the shortest route. Except for motorways. which due to increased car speed are weighted more favorably.

[@RepOfAntarctica]

@@Lucifer_Crowe that's true for the road tiles as well, but I've also seen the motorway not move after the car on it has left it, because another car (that had yet to be on it) takes it about 3 seconds later. The game will continue to send cars on it if it hasn't moved & it determines it to be the best route, meaning the motorway might sit for over a minute before moving (in the previous vod one didn't move for ~90 seconds). This is troublesome when you need it to change asap or you lose. This seems to be why it's best to pause it if you want your changes to be implemented sooner, because the game doesn't seem to calculate routes while paused.

[@RepOfAntarctica]

Yeah, to me the traffic lights seem useless. Even if you can manually change them, all they do is further impede car journeys ("trying" to help others) on an already tight window to complete them, given the demand by the destinations.

[@BibsideonStatue]

I think there are a few good places for them, but they should be used very seldom. For example, if you have a five or six way street with heavy traffic, a traffic sign is better than a roundabout because it keeps the flow for more cars. Usually a roundabout is better, but under heavy traffic a roundabout gets slowed down every time a car needs to cross to another road.

[@ze_rubenator]

I think the only real use is a high density crossroads where two different colours are crossing each other.

[@deliriousdrama2.078]

Thanks for making me buy this game

[@overgrownghost]

I really like watching this game! Thanks for uploading, Dan ☺️

[@Prens27]

I want this to be an unsustainable loop the likes of the infamous Cox & Crendor reaction reactions

[@XOIIOXOIIO]

1:25:00 hmm, be unloved and have fuck all money, or be unloved and be able to do whatever I want. Yeah I'd take the upgrade.

[@Shiro-vz1ru]

What he said about the long distance relationships needing an end date is beyond true!

[@jakesaunders946]

Try laying out the perfect road design before the buildings come in then alter it later on

[@sdog300]

Good video but you should make cul-de-sacs for residential areas. It’ll help the flow getting onto the main roads not have everybody bottlenecked out a huge intersection.

[@kokosan09]

"this is the Dark Souls of this game" 😂

[@kjj26k]

Was hoping for more of this from you.

[@tugboat242]

Idk how I wasnt subscribed.... I love the language LOL I actually bought this game like a week ago and love it too

[@monkey81818]

Love your stuff my man nerd ^2

[@lockonandfire]

I feel that Dan's attempts at enforcing segregation between the colours is problematic. Much like in real life, though here we're only referring to prospective traffic flow.

[@randomlyrandomrr8213]

Roses are red violets are blue I clicked on this video at 3am and so did you

[@KrisFirebolt]

w h a l e s o u n d s AMBIANCE xD

[@hamstersmash]
