Another tip when setting up all of the mass transit is that if you have advanced parking AI switched on in the tm:pe options it will show you red/green buildings when you are in the transit view. Red are high demand buildings so you can place your stops/stations near these buildings. There's a toggle button to see outgoing demand or incoming demand so remember to check both so you can maximize your transit usage.

One thing I've tried with some success on several cities was make a highway exit on the submap closest to the edge (since it takes funky mods to build outside of the purchasable map area), place a parking lot/parking garage next to a metro (or train) station, and then run the metro (or train) to the areas they are wanting to go to. It has cut down on passenger cars coming in from outside the city by quite a bit. Anytime you see it starting to affect another area, add another metro/train line to that area connected from the edge station(s). So it doesn't look so out of place, can use some industry or something in the area to look like a small developing area.

A good way to avoid traffic going into small roads, instead of using the main roads, is to make some small districts and put the "old town" restriction on, that way they will only go in there if they have business to do there. Particularly useful for avoiding industrial traffic in residential areas. Just make sure your main roads are up for the increased traffic.

While I've learned a lot watching your videos (my city never had any traffic issues, 70k ppl and 85/87% traffic), I've been doing the metro layouts like that since I started and it works great. The big loops never worked in my mind, seems super unpractical and you end up spending more money. I still think you added too many metro stations and bus lines - probably because you are used to the big loop xD - I use ONE metro only for each huge residential / commercial / industrial areas and just a few bus lines (I don't think I have more than 5 lines on my 70k city) and it works, CIMs walk a lot in my experience (I don't use any mod for this), I just make sure they all have good walking paths connecting the routes / blocks. The traffic lights Quick Setup is a revolution. I've never had the patience to manually set traffic lights, waaaay too complex before.

I actually took an estimate last time I took public transport. I edited my buses to carry 60 people, and my metro to carry 100/car. It's like the game only counts seats, not standing room... Hell, there's like 40-odd seats on subway cars. So they're even underestimating that at 30 passengers per car. Anyway, just something to consider. You can actually turn a profit with public transport, and you don't have to ruin your traffic with 1000 buses or have endless queues.

I think what this automatic timed lights feature does is simply translate basic game lights into editable form. Before you had to start from scratch and build each segment of it manually, which for people starting out could be very daunting (as, its not very clear how to do it properly, so lots of trial and error, and every junction with more than 2 lane roads from each side was a little nightmare). Now you have your template just as is, and if you just wanted to make a green arrow for turning right, you can just switch one thing and be done with it. Still pretty cool.

I have an idea. When going onto the "L-about" there should be an extra lane to accept turning traffic for a couple of lengths, and the input lanes should all be set to "continue through nodes". The roads feeding it should all be single lane, and seperate from the output lanes, which should also be single lane when possible. This would maximize the traffic flow, and allow a truly massive amount of traffic to flow through a single L-about or large Oval-about, without the need for a huge interchange.

12:22 Just a thought but when you're changing your vehicle budget modifier for that line, it puts 8 vehicles on it starting from 299% right up to at least 308%. So would it be most cost-efficient to set it to the lowest possible percent for the number of vehicles you want? Otherwise you're paying the extra few % of budget for no additional vehicles. Won't make a huge difference but across an entire city's public transport it might save a few quid over time, if that's how it works.

You seem to have done this more than I, so I thought I'd ask you: I did that in one of my cities, and one line seemed to add and remove a train all the time. I haven't seen that since, but wondered if you'd seen it too?
@bobblebardsley4 жыл бұрын
I don't actually have the game, I'm just going by Biffa's videos really! But that sounds like maybe it was right on the edge of the budget for the next train so maybe putting it up by 1-2% would fix it? I'm not sure if it would recalculate, like if you add another line somewhere else, whether it would affect your budget on the lines you already have, but maybe it was just landing right in the half-percent. Biffa may know better than I do, if he sees this :)

@@bobblebardsley Haha, I was just watching others play for 2 years, before buying the game, so I understand :) Yes, I changed the percentage a bit, and it stopped being strange, at least while I was watching. I just wondered if it was a regular thing, since you brought up tweaking the value. I have a background in programming and networking, so I can imagine a few ways the game could cause that, without it really being a bug.

Biffa uses timed traffic lights. Forgets the name of his lord and saviour Roundabouts. Also forgets to add a metro stop at his long line for the transfer. People don't want to go from the stadium then be stranded in the industry area, who knew!

Hey Biffa! Traffic intersection question. Is there plop-able right turn y intersections? Would that help especially with some 45° intersections etc?
@phoenixwyllow4 жыл бұрын
quick extra bit, I've found on those "interchange" metro stations that you can set the lines to stop on opposite sides if you take an extra minute to adjust the lines. The trains don't get held up queuing for the stop so much. The new TMPE looks pretty good graphically even on the lane connectors now! side question: I'm looking for a few extra asymmetrical roads like the 1+3 etc...suggestions for a non-dlc person?

Network Extentions 2 mod has the interesting roads, though it's only on the Steam version of the game.

The TM update is gonna save me literally hours per gaming session, one of my cities is past 210k and I'm constantly upgrading/changing roads and used to have to redo all the lanes. This is great!... And by the way, another really good video!
@theddrman4 жыл бұрын
Same! My biggest city is about 250k now and has multiple major tourist districts and an international airport. Even with ample footpaths and public transportation, the traffic still gets absolutely nuts sometimes and I'm constantly tweaking the major roads and highways to improve things. This will save a metric ton of time with lights and turn arrows!

Do you already have the TM:PE Update? It is still in version 10 for me.
@goltzhar4 жыл бұрын
@@theddrman Yeah! And for me it's gonna be so great, because I now plan and build a whole city area at once so that I'll have to make as few changes as possible when the area populates. The time I spend on just "finishing up" the turn arrows is horrendous. I have done this for years, NEVER let them have a choice... You have to tell them where they can drive. I have had SO many times HUGE traffic jams and all it took was one or two lane arrows (where there was two choices) to sort the whole city out.

@@goltzhar Agreed. And my large industry areas always have to have a spaghetti of underground and overpass slip lanes to keep them from all taking the same junction, despite there being multiple exits directly to the highway. Plop those slip lanes in with a 130 kph speed limit and suddenly everyone wants to use them instead lol. In my biggest city, I actually have a slip lane from my main industry area that goes under more than half the city to the highway that leads to the far side of the city. That alone took my traffic from deadlocked around 30% up to 82%. They just wouldn't take the highways no matter the speed limit.

If you click "copy" while on the timed traffic lights screen then click the node you want to add, it copies the settings and seems to work in conjunction with the original I think anyway - perhaps just unbelievably good timing.
