    Never have I seen a developer embrace the community as much as Paradox does with Cities. A new community-made tutorial every few days is just amazing, I love it. Keep it up guys.

      I'd say bungie used too in halo days but paradox and developers of the game cities skylines are good. Paradox dropped the ball a little with imperator yet they've picked it up or are picking it up no where near bad enough to ruin them though still a good company

    I did some research in to railways a while back and gathered that for heavy cargo trains, the elevation change should by less than 1 m for every 100 m traveled which is virtually flat.

      @@9airpods917 I mean people still need to have fun right. For creating realistic cities people should have some irl information though.
      In one of my cities I'm looking to create a railway with a max of 1:50 slope to compensate for the scale of the game. I might actually find this challenging as the vanilla map I'm building on has a really steep bit on one side.

      @Arsenic Pills correction from Wikipedia, 1.5% ruling grade or 1:67 for freight trains, but metros can exceed 1:25 ruling grade. Obviously there are limitations in the game and some instances in real life where a trade off was made between capacity and construction cost.
      Also locomotives are a lot more powerful now than they were in the 1800s when railways were first built.

    • @MartinSparkes-BadDragon
      @MartinSparkes-BadDragon 5 лет назад +1

      The other think is that rail was always there first! I don't like the maps where the rail bridges highways with a steep up across down bridge. The highway should always give way tho the train tracks, and either go under the tracks or over.

      @@Czardus, don't know why, but when you are making those roads which follows the terrain, my heart feels warm. I felt it too in your Sinagua videos, especially when you are creating the layout for Jonesville. The train tracks isn't so much when it cuts into mountains, but it does when it takes a leisure trip through "path with the least resistance".
      Maybe it has to do with respecting the nature and incorporate it to create a beautiful and sustainable suburban areas.
      Keep rocking, Czardus!

    @stevespain6445 5 лет назад

    Thanks for doing this one - too often, even with seasoned casters the idea of building a city is the flatten everything mode, which is often, for me, a negative aspect of gameplay. I understand that also the game needs some work on the way things clip to terrain but given the variety of mods available, I think can be worked around. [edit: Just watched Utilizing Terrain Elevations with Titan on this channel who actually advises how to work with the terrain in Vanilla - so mods aren't actually needed.]

      Well that's actually pretty straightforward
      1. Grids, almost the entire road layout must be composed by grids
      2. A tremendously big interchange cutting thru the city, usually
      3. If you are going to do a big city, make a large downtown area, tall squary skyscrapers and classic goverment buildings
