    Cities Skylines Industries:
    In one of the most in-depth expansions in Cities: Skylines history, Industry becomes a larger and more meaningful part of the game with this expansion. Players can customize their industrial areas with supply chains for the four different resource types and unique factories. Well managed industry areas will level up and become more efficient. Aside from production chains, there is a new city service for handling mail and the cargo airport eases import and export of factory goods. There are FIVE new maps, new policies, new city services, new buildings (including resource extractors, manufacturers, warehouses and unique factories) and more.
    Key Features:
    - MAKE IT HAPPEN
    Follow your products from harvesting to processing, storage and production, then transport them to commercial zones or export to other cities.
    - CAPTAIN YOUR OWN INDUSTRIES
    Define an area with the industry area tool and place highly specialized industrial buildings to build and manage the production chain from raw material extraction up to final end product. Industry Areas are divided into four types based on the natural resource they are processing: Farming, Forest, Ore and Oil. These areas can level up upon reaching productions goals and staffing requirements.
    - BUILD IT UP, BUTTERCUP
    New industrial buildings include Extractors, Warehouse Facilities, Processing and Auxiliary Buildings, Industrial Props and Roads. Unique Factories, such as Food, Toy, Furniture, Car and Electronics produce luxury products, and require a large number of workers, water and electricity as well as input from your industries.
    - SHIP IT
    Manage traffic and logistics with industrial warehouses and the use of the new Cargo Services including a cargo airport.
    GO POSTAL
    Boost your citizens’ well-being with mail delivery and collection services. Post sorting facilities handle mail between outside connections and the post offices, and new Post Van and Truck vehicles enable the carriage.
    - WONK HARD
    Three new Industry Policies and four City-wide Policies, including Workers’ Union, Sorting, Tolls, Wi-Fi, Logistics, Work Safety and Automation.

    I can't explain how happy I am that you did a full vanilla fix, I play on console and unless you do small pockets and not a large central city. Traffic quickly becomes the bane of your existence. Anything above 120K pop and the traffic just becomes so bad trucks get stuck. Then the good/customer flood happens and building start shutting down. Then it Smithville turns into meteorville and restart.

    It would be nice if Paradox gave us access to some of these QoL mods for us console players. Or maybe just even implement them in the vanilla version as a update to fix some of the borked aspects of the game, it would make the overall experience far more enjoyable along with causing less headaches.

      the reason they don't have stuff like tmpe integrated into the game already is the cpu load it causes. On a high end gaming PC it's insignificant because it can just shift the load to different cores, but on low end systems and consoles you have very limited processing power and a heavy AI can crush the performance.

      They are not completely useless, you just have to be very careful and basically plan the city around the road so that every lane somehow ends up somewhere where people want to go. But I agree, they are not nice to use and throwing more lanes at a traffic problem won't solve the problem as long as it is not just a pure capacity problem.

    • @-ragingpotato-937

      Not really, in the 4 lane the vanilla AI will use the outer most lane as both a turning lane and a forwards lane. With the six lane you get less dummies waiting in line for a turn only to keep going forward once they get there. At least in my experience.

  • @cinnanyan
    @cinnanyan 5 лет назад +41

    The trick to playing without traffic mods is that you need to consider the purpose of every lane. If your road doesn't narrow or split at some point, only two lanes of the the six lane roads are actually used because the others don't lead to anywhere different. (Well, the trick is that you shouldn't try to build Brasilia. Brasilia is a terrible city.)

  • @leuman3104
    @leuman3104 5 лет назад +33

    I think the real question is, why the traffic mods, move object and road mods ect are not just real option of the game? Because the traffic mods are really helpful and they have so many mods we can't use on console it's hard to play and create something really nice without mods. Its possible but really hard.

    • @EricLS
      @EricLS 5 лет назад +4

      Le Uman I think it’s performance issues. The mods slow things down quite a bit. Biffa has a MUCH more powerful PC than any console, particularly because a lot of the traffic stuff is CPU bound, where a PC is just astronomically more capable. The other side of the coin is just how over detailed things get with mods like MoveIt. They allow for incredibly stupid stuff to happen, and can essentially cheat things like full landfills and such. All that said, at least a few traffic manager features, specifically lane management and simple yield signs would be huge.

  • @NickC_222
    @NickC_222 5 лет назад +4

    Guys, one of the best tips I ever received for trains and certain roads to certain buildings, is to use off ramps. For example, NEVER put a train station (trains, not metro,) directly on your train tracks. Every train that stops at the station, if the tracks only run through the station, will stop all the trains behind it. What you want to do is build the station next to your train line, then split the tracks into two so one track goes straight past the station and the other breaks off the main track to enter the station set off to the side. Let trains pick which they want, as most of them will likely pass by the train station. You can sometimes do similar things for certain roads.

    With vanilla line switching, less lanes can make the flow better, since they don't make the sharp corners during the lane switching

    @humpday75 5 лет назад +1

    Also Biffa, I've notice for his roads. He needs a large road 6 lane (main), medium 4 lane (secondary), and then two lane (residential) but for cities just use the 6 lane and 4 lane either the first 4 lane or the avenue road

  • @drenevilo

    This is great, although I should say my vanilla version seems to have less things than yours, prominently, the 4-lane highway isn't here ... is it not maybe from some DLC?

  • @leedavis6343
    @leedavis6343 3 года назад

    I know this video is 2 years old but I just wanted to say that when it comes to that pesky lane switching in vanilla/console one thing you could do is to add in a bunch of nodes by just adding a bunch of cheap roads along the highway (just stack them up to the best CS will let you) and then delete them less abrupt turns along the highways and many intersections would help a lot too, ( and I may not be the best at making a beautiful city but those jagged highways killed me on the inside). The games AI will see those as more places to change lanes where the sims will do that in a more natural looking way and it has the added benefits of 1) sims not crossing all the way across the highway to change lanes and 2) giving the AI more options to change lanes so the sims are less likely to get in one another's way (its vanilla it's still going to happen a LOT, but noticeably less) so even with those awful, awful cloverleaf intersections giving more nodes to the AI makes a massive difference in preventing backups with those and other intersections. And even in vanilla the logic of using a few lanes as necessary still rings true because you don't want to confuse the AI with too many options because that's when you start to see the sims all using the same lane to go multiple places. I did see a fair amount of intersections nearby the elevated roundabouts that had a fair amount of pedestrians crossing and hampering traffic flow and I would like to point out that in every version of CS elevated pedestrian pathways over particularly busy intersections is a *must*. And lastly the only thing that killed me in this video is that the original city did not follow roadway hierarchy at all in the slightest, now that isn't something that'll make the biggest difference when it comes to traffic flow but it does go in line with having as few lanes as necessary. And if these techniques are implemented correctly, you can have a city on this very same map with a population between 60k & 70k with over or approaching %90 traffic flow.

    Hello I got story from mine city now. I'm playing on Xbox and try to rebuild Nashville.
    I'm actually tapping myself slightly on my shoulder. I mean I got 65k people so far and still 70% traffic flowing.
    What I found out for roundabouts in vanilla remove traffic lights and stop signs, and make the roundabout itself a priority street. It's a vanilla mechanic.
    They still doing stupid stopping but as far as I found out the most fluent way.
    I really enjoy your videos and they help me out a lot.

  • @russelljacob7955
    @russelljacob7955 5 лет назад +4

    The biggest overlook and neglected feature for Vanilla traffic control is using both sides of the road. It is too easy to overlook branching off both left and right which can split the traffic into both left and right. In this respect, the roundabout is highly ineffective unless properly lane configured. Even then, it does not take advantage of inline lanes.
    Look up herringbone and Square-a-bouts by twistedmelon in the workshop to see compact but visually appealing roads with extremely high traffic flow on pure vanilla, no DLC play.

  • @davaerst919

    Hey Biffa. Started watched your videos lately, super fun and educational. Quick question though, and maybe not the right video to ask on, but could you do a video explaining all the mods you usually have active when playing Cites: Skylines? Sorry if you already have a video like that, but one quick search didnt seem to find it.

  • @justanugget4844
    @justanugget4844 5 лет назад

    I have the switch version cause I love portability with my gaming. However since coming across bifa's skyline traffic series I see now why vanilla is a headache. All these beautiful useful mods I will never have access too :( I can never grow my city over 50k. I can get to 50k population without ease but then the game majorly slows down less people moving in and more people dying. Traffic in vanilla is annoying to handle especially once you start implementing buses and metros. Still trying to figure it all out before I start to build my masterpiece. Still this is a great series really enjoying your content 😌👍

  • @japes7
    @japes7 5 лет назад +2

    For vanilla players I'd suggest going to keyboard mapping in settings and create a shortcut key to get to the junctions/or that routing button used to change the traffic lights and stop signs. It's much easier than finding it to click on.

    You could try shrinking the roundabout between the exit and the entrance so it forces the cars that want to continue into the two left lines.

    I used to think my 70% traffic flow in complete vanilla with no DLCs was bad until i watched this, now I feel good about it! But I think I'll try to implement some of these techniques.

  • @pufaxx
    @pufaxx 5 лет назад +5

    Don't know if that helps in this case - but I'd build these roundabouts at about minute 7 with highways. Cars can drive faster and there won't be pedestrian crossings.

    • @richards31415
      @richards31415 5 лет назад +2

      Indeed, further they only use 1 lane so putting a 6-lane road is pointless. I usually alternate the # of lanes in my roundabouts (to provide "exit" lanes)

  • @rmjohnson144
    @rmjohnson144 4 года назад +1

    The cargo train spawn point at about 21:00 when you move the clogged cargo train seems a bug. It seems to remember every cargo truck to infinity, likely the 64k limit or the games array. I would think this should be marked as failed deliveries, and cause despawns instead when bulldozed/moved.
    Maybe the devs left it this way to keep the city stable, but I think it would be better to despawn and let them respawn instead. You may end up with a few failure icons, but I think the city would survive with very little issues in the long run.
    But if you let it run for a while, it eventually stops spawning and the moved cargo station is still operating normally, so it just doubles traffic for a little while. I run into this issue when helping others on the forums for several years. So this has been around for a long time.

    For intersections, Y junctions work best. T junctions and 4 way stops have to worry about cross traffic.
    With round about, if it's big enough, I have 2 roads, or 1 way in and out, coming from the inside of the loop.

    There's one thing you can do faster in vanilla:

    2) Click on road and mark it as "main road" (auto sets stop signs)
