This is why I still use Metro Overhaul Mod. The ability to rotate the underground subway platforms around to the direction I need despite road direction, and even curve them and change their depth, still makes it extremely useful to have.

[@crzy1gs]

[@adrianfung3370]

For the Tea > Dean Sq line, you can extend it towards the Green Tea Fields Farm, to boast it passenger usage, and also provide a way for workers to go to work there.

[@simonsv9449]

It would be nice with a bit of a more rural part of the system.

[@JMWZ_E]

11:46 You are basically doing what you did before: you are merging all 6 station tracks into one track and do not keep one train length distance. 1:26 At the Glassbox Station you merged three platform tracks into one track for one direction and three into a track for the other direction. A better solution would be to dedicate some tracks (2 at the Glassbox, 3 at the new station) for intercity trains and the rest for your regional train network - and they work as dedicated platforms if intercity and regional tracks are fully separate and only connect to the right platforms. 14:50 If you are branching of tracks the busiest of those branches should be created as flyovers or flying junctions. I'd really love to see you sophisticated knowledge of highway junctions transferred to your rail junctions. I'm not quite sure whether you are joining the regional tracks here - if you do, maybe don't join at all but run separate intercity tracks parallel to the existing tracks. Network Multitool can build parallel networks to already existing ones. 15:24 Here you are removing the redundant metro station and 30:54 shows that the Airport has a second platform. If you bring back the deleted station but rotate it by 90° you could easily connect those two and extend that tunnel into a (semi-) circle line with transfer options to most other lines. And some of these transfers might be more convenient than going via Tearantula. Before becoming an independent line (the city needs to be massively extended to create the demand) you could use it as an extension of now less attractive Dean Sq line ... 33:47 Sugar Cube line is currently sharing tracks with that yellow line via Laurel Park to get into the Glassbox station. It could instead have separate tracks if you connect it Maple Line's underground terminus (seen 29:04 ) which still has an unused platform.

[@samantharichardson6956]

Yea but the the thing is you can’t change what platform intercity trains go to

[@JMWZ_E]

@@samantharichardson6956 Yes and no ... they will choose one those those tracks, that are connected to the outside of the map. That's why not every station track should have that connection.

[@stevieinselby]

@@samantharichardson6956 The best way to manage railways in a big city is to keep the intercity and local trains on separate tracks. Have a dedicated set of tracks for the local passenger trains that doesn't have any physical connection to the tracks that come in from outside the city, and then you can manage how many platforms are available to intercity trains as well as reducing conflict points and the risk of train jams. Unfortunately it's much harder to do the same with cargo trains as you don't control what routes they use. Even if you can't segregate the networks completely, you still need more capacity than simply funnelling all 12 platforms into a single line in and out.

[@resinatedcaser]

You sir, need a life outside youtube!

[@Zoe_C95]

Messing with the public transport is one of my favourite things to do in the game, and seeing Tearantula station come to life at the end was so satisfying. Was great seeing people cut through the beautiful park to get to the station too!

[@lesleyvids2610]

Some suggestions: -Line 9 is now redundant, as there is a noew line on the same tracks. - several lines ending in the Tearantula could be connected onwards/merged with another line on the same pair of tracks - on the glass cube station, one line coming in from the Tearantula could be connected to the underground tunnel and merged with the line there creating a loop, the other one can be merged with the line leaving the glass cube in the other direction - the new trainstation needs a metro connection, you can stop glass box from getting intercity trains, they will then reroute to the new station

[@simongeard4824]

Yeah, I thought the same - he has quite a few stations where lines come in from either end and terminate, where it would seem more sensible to instead merge them into a single line passing through.

[@NelielSugiura]

All those little side branches would be too small to hold a train given they are quite long. :( Your loop into the university is a one-way, two-lane road so the extra turn arrows on the left side where it exits would be confusing and lead a driver into the wrong side of that loop!! Your Tearantula station, and all the other metro lines and stations you had in before buying all tiles with 81 tiles mod, were broken due to the sunken line issue (if you look at your lines from an angle, instead of top-down, you will see they are all still broken) and I have every confidence it is also why the name resets. In order to fix the issue with the lines having zero riders, you need to rebuild stations and tracks that were placed before the unlocking of all tiles. I get that the mod is the only way to use the whole map, but I do not think it is something to be used anymore thanks to the huge issue. I had to redo the metro stations and lines in my city three times because of that mod. If you are able to contact the mod creator, as you seem to have the connections, it would help to get it fixed... or maybe ask McSergei that wrote Network Multitool to make a better one? :( Additional: The passenger counts you are seeing now are only going to be the new stations and fixed tracks, I feel, and you will retain a lot of the zero-passenger stops until everything is remade, unfortunately. You mention you have reset the station... that does not actually work. You have to rebuild it, which I think you figured out when the people suddenly flooded in. :)

[@ciobyl]

I really think he already knows this. It was like a few episodes ago he figured out. So it will be a new video fixing the metro for sure. More videos😁

[@thatotherguy186]

Yea he mentioned the 81 tiles problem and I know he rebuilt it once but I don’t know if it was before he got rid or 81 tiles. I personally have been using 25 tiles now as most people have from what I’ve seen. I have never needed all 81 anyway so yea lol

[@NelielSugiura]

@@ciobyl I love all this daily content, so I am fine with that! I just want to help him get it sorted between sips of tea. :)

[@inyobill]

Annnnnd another mystery solved. Thanks for that, friend. I finallt figgered out that the stations were being set too deep, but didna know whafer.

[@drakedbz]

The 81 tiles mod is fine if you do the force unlock all at the start. I don't like being limited to one square anyway, so I do this on all of my new maps, as that way I have the freedom to build based on terrain, rather than arbitrary straight lines, just as towns would have grown in the past. It's just a bonus that I have everything unlocked prior to placing any underground infrastructure, as it means I never run into the bug (which seems to trigger when you unlock a new square while the mod is installed).

[@HugoLoidon]

Maybe you could add some crossings one the different roads outside the tearantula station so people can come directly from the park ☺️

[@danthiel8623]

Hugo is real!?

[@mildertduck]

I think this one is pretty vital - all the traffic clogging up the roads around the station is because the crossing is in use all the time!

[@MiguelMateo]

Biffa, amazing fix! BTW, a couple of tiny suggestions: (1) At minute 26, you can add a small path to connect the new metro station to the city in the back (2) At minute 44, there is a blue line in that metro station that runs just two stations, which is no longer needed since you now extended the yellow line to those two stations as well.

[@xthexenoxx1885]

[@mfauzanp]

At 16:54 you try to change lane manual in TM:PE, the exit road from university was made one way. That's why you cant change it using CTRL+L Click

[@kleckerklotz9620]

One guess about the issue with the Tearantula Station: It was probably moved with the help of the Move It mod, which might have broken the street connections because of slight height differences. Just a guess... Also another thing about your metro lines: In reality metro lines are pretty long from one end of a city to another end. Or they go in a big loop. Some of your lines just go a few stations and from there starts a new short line. Those could easily be one long line, instead of two short ones. Also I think your metro line no. 9 services the same plattform as your new "Tea > Glass Box" line. Since you have extended the latter. And another thing I noticed: At 16:55 you added turn-in lanes to a one way road. None of your lovely New Tealanders will ever use these. Anyhow, very nice changes. Much love, Biffa. I always enjoy your builts.

[@Geekstin]

that just made me think of the Kea (pronounced 'kee-ya') so... you could also call it the 'Tea station' but pronounce it 'Tee-ya' haha

[@KreppelSeppel]

Great Job with Tearantula Metro Station! Loving to see all the people moving in there now! The metro lines only had 0passengers because it was broken :) The metro line Tea > Maple is overlapping with the blue metro line that went from spartea to the glass train station, I think you should elete that one now :) and i dont thin it's a good idea to drop metro trains on the pavarottea line from 5 to 3 as the trains were pretty busy and its a very long line. Hope to see the next videos the next days! Have a good day.

[@123Comrade]

Tiffany Station! (Tea Fan y) 😅 Would make CGP Grey happy also. Btw you should have more ped crossings around the Tearantula station. The road going around it has no crossings other than at the front.

[@casinosavant]

[@goapsyche]

Biffa! You need to add some pedestrian crossings around the spider station so the peeps can use all the paths.

[@TigonOlogdring]

Oh dear... Rail Madness Syndrome afflicts Biffa... most entertaining. Very nice to sea Tearantula actually working again... Can you place props inside the plaza spaces inside the metro hub? Looks like it could do with a bit of love on the decoration front on the inside, but it certainly looks pretty cool with the high volume usage from the cims. Don't forget that the new quay walls allow foot traffic along them: you could possibly get even more usage of the new footbridge by connecting it to a pedestrianised river walkway. Thanks for the lunchtime entertain again Bifster! Always appreciated.

[@Rikard_Nilsson]

17:30 I said it wen you made the park and I'll say it again: you should have pedestrian crossings at the 'top' of Aspen road so people going through the park don't need to walk down the entire length of that road to cross the street and get to the station.

[@mrs.paperweight6036]

[@normILL]

16:34 When he fixed the one way road in he also forced in lane options to go into the one way out. Biffa you goof!

[@icantthinkofaname2176]

Biffa, you've got to start merging short lines (1 or 2 stops) on the same track into one long line with 10-15 stops or more. Transferring to a new train at every stop is pretty inefficient, in game and irl. Edit: you make a lot of redundant and overlapping transit lines by "not seeing the forest through the trees." Edit 2: you could probably get the same transit efficiency with fewer but better-routed lines.

[@1234velo1234]

Well I recently found out that the Waterloo and City line runs just 4meters below the BFI Odeon Imax at Waterloo and "the entire upper superstructure has been set on anti-vibration bearings to prevent the transfer of noise into the auditorium" So don't worry about the naysayers with your metro station next to the Opera House

[@marcusdirk]

Old joke: "You're building a metro station next to the opera house? What about the noise?" "Don't worry, the passengers won't mind."

13:20 you can actually slope it you just have to click on intersections in this case. Thats the same with every node. Node A - click the intersection in between - Node B.

[@dehumanatlas9197]

for the train station that needs a fan & tea related name: The Fanteastic Station. Love watching New Tealand grow bigger & bigger. Also, for a future episode potentially, the mountain near the Tearantula metro station, could be similar to some summits in Australia where you can drive most of the way up there, then a small carpark with a little walking track to summit. The road could even have very sharp hairpins too!

So at @28:50 when you added that node it looks like it broke the bus stop at the arena. When you came by it again a few seconds later it still showed two unconnected ends for the lines. Also, your Metro Line 9 already went from the Court House to the Glass Box Terminal through Maple gardens I think. So the section you added for Tea > Maple overlaps with Metro Line 9 that already covered the same path.... I might be wrong, you were going pretty quick there, but you might want to check it out.

The airport you get with Sunset Harbor brings in almost no passengers as a general rule. The one you get with After Dark does the opposite: it brings in crazy amounts of passengers and you'd need to set up public transport with it almost immediately after bringing it online, as well as possibly restricting private car traffic etc.

[@KarstenWenzlaff]

Hi Biffa, I was wondering why are not putting a train station where the Intercity Train leaves your map? Then the people waiting for their connections into the city would have a real place to stand around, and not just stand next to the track.

[@Salmoddi]

prop station could be nice, I don't think a real station would work.

[@TheTechCguy]

I've also come to learn, from experience from back in the day with the SimCity series, that high traffic mass transit can be resolved when stations are located next to other stations of other transport modes. Also, make sure districts are spread out a little bit with your lines flowing smoothly from district to district. That way, traffic is never an issue for mass transit, whose main purpose is to alleviate traffic on roads in the first place.

[@kpp266]

Tearantula station could use 1-2 crossing on the back street leading to the park. Those stairs aren't used cos they have no access; maybe ?

[@OntologicalQuandry]

16:44 turning lanes INTO the exit of a one-way street... I think, Biffa, you need a new mod that permits drivers to break the highway code and travel the wrong way! Perhaps zone it and name the junction Agitation Crossing because we all know the sugar dissolves faster if you move the spoon against the current of the tea.

I don't know if it's a problem, but I was thinking you should have crossings around the tearantula station, so people from the parks don't have to walk all the way around to get down to the station.

[@Starcloud676]

I second this suggestion. I just commented about this but didn't have newest first sorted on the comments.

[@michalma]

Love your daily uploads :) please add crossings around the metro hub, to align with elevators. Now people have to walk around to catch the ride.

[@Clavichordist]

Those are great changes. The track tweak is an interesting one and I need to address some of those myself in my cities. My few cities I have built came along since the early days of Cities with many changes done as the various DLC packages have come out and as new Workshop assets have come along. This makes upgrading infrastructure difficult in many places because I don't want to upset the applecart as they say. On one of my busy cities with intercity connections, I used separate stations placed in close proximity to each other initially. When footpaths came along with After Dark, footbridges were put in to cross over the tracks between the two services. This allowed passengers to transfer between intercity trains and local trains without everything clogging up because the services are separate.

You are an Insperation for me how things work, with simple Suggestions and Fixes. Dont Stop what your doing. You are the best. I love watching you.

[@rusuran11]

Biffa. Try making the best tourist atraction/park at the volcano. It even has a nice lake in the middle of it.

[@Capox777]

I am soooo sooo happy that the Tearantula Terminal finally evolved to what it should have been ever since! *-* GG WP Biffa!

[@ArnoModelstate]

Seeing the Tea > Dean Sq line at the end and how low the use still is on that one it's PERFECT to extend to the new Intercity hub !

[@PaLx78]

Perhaps, adding a couple of pedestrian crossings around Tea metro station wouldn't be a bad idea... ;)

[@nimnimnimful]

A traffic fix without traffic, Genius! Have a tea break, you deserve it.

[@ultimatetruths8152]

this is a very satisfying episode tbh 😁 one of the roads near the college you were trying to fix still a one way road

[@nathanwaldron4259]

New tealand is really coming along. Just one suggestion, the lime that goes to the basketball area should not go past the arena. It’s unnecessary as the sugar cube line is shorter and both start and end at the same place which is redundant. Great episode biffa.

[@ladygagaguy318]

Just started watching your videos a week or so back and I'm obsessed 😅😂 you are doing such an amazing job and gives me inspiration in how I build my own cities 😀

[@BiffaPlaysCitiesSkylines]

Thank you so much!!

[@alliallisonintech495]

Love it Biffa! Tearantula looks amazing filled with people

[@nolan1500]

The new station kinda looks like a Manta Ray from the front and back, so maybe "Mantea Ray station"?? It almost looks like it is coming out of the river too!!

I love watching Biffa play this game. I recently made a semi-questionable choice to get Sim City 2013 version and now I can barely play it since I started watching B design and fix cities/traffic. I have been watching out of sequence but am trying to now keep up with the new stuff as much as possible. One suggestion for this particular city and trainline would be something I noticed in another gamer's train station set up, and that is a pedestrian flyover (a white double staircase like structure) for the really busy city boundary stop, where people are just walking all over the tracks, that area could be more developed and B's attention to details would make it really look great and more realistic, I have no doubt. I literally want to build a gaming computer just for this Cities Skylines because I'm hooked!

[@Ensivion]

I was looking forward to this episode as you got your massive goal up and running from one of the earlier episodes, the big metro hub. Your city has really sprang to life with all the fixes you did in this episode.

[@trev8591]

I love all the NewTealanders cycling up and down the escalators!

[@jacobfarkas3916]

What a beautiful city! I would love to see you do an island map like this, but without any bridges. Just tunnels, so nothing interferes with the water.

[@deebte__]

this is like the prettiest cities skylines city i have ever seen, what public transport assets do you use, also the trees and the roads and that one other mod with a tooltip similar to traffic manager, fantastic, i must know

[@minimoom898]

The way people bike straight down the stairs onto the metro platform at the end cracks me up

[@ashullu]

i truly enjoy watching biffa struggle at writing foreign names or words

[@SeregaKRYL]

Finally metro stations were added near that big metro hub! But I think the reason, why the metro line to opera house is not used enough, is simple. There is no metro station near cable car (funicular) district - it goes straight to opera. Maybe adding the station there and removing the bus route in the same direction will do the trick

[@DrDulittle]

This was a really fun one to watch, something about spidering network of trains is entrancing. City challenge idea 'trains and trams only' for travel 'walking accepted' (no other modes of transport) the Tea-Train-Massacre.

[@skieast3631]

Tearantula Metro Station - You should add a couple of crosswalks from the surrounding parks over to the station, especially in the back of it as everyone as to come to the front of the station to cross the street. InterCity Trains - You added Intercity trains to one or two of the stations on the Atoll

[@empyrion8789]

Great episode 👏 so good to see Tearantula Station working so well now.

[@ptterz]

There was actually nothing wrong with metro lines, it was an update which changed default metro capacities that broke those lines. Was it that also platform lengths on those vanilla stations changed as well? There was some discussion on Discord about this. It seems if you use default metro trains, all the lines needed to be resetted. Btw, connect that new multiplatform station to airport with metro connection. There is two platforms at the airport. Also, maybe a train line from all the way from alien rock park to that new multiplatform station? It takes quite a long time to go through that glass box station.
