  • Mini Motorways is a highway engineering puzzle game and in this video I, a highway designer of 10 years, see if my real life engineering skills help me become better at the Mini Motorways puzzle game by taking everything I have learned so far to the extreme to fix bad traffic and survive over 100 days in Mini Motorways!

    one upgrade/update id love to see in this game. After X weeks, or a possible weekly upgrade, youre allowed to change a shop color meaning you can change a bad placed yellow shop to a blue shop which allows you to make a potential comeback from a lost position or just overall better your map position by saving you a motorway or bridge. Similarly to be able to do something similar to that with the homes would be great! It also doesnt seem too complicated to add as an update, just a random thought I had when I played this game.

    • @decas5505
      @decas5505 2 года назад +26

      That wuold be really cool! But the problem is that you will need to remake all of your roads just because you changed that one shop, which instead of being a reward is a little more like a waste of time
      Still i still agree that there should be some kind of reward to the player to make it a little bit easier after the player completed x weeks

      @DailyBanter96 2 года назад +31

      @@decas5505 It depends, like I said it adds a layer of strategy, look at the video, if he could repaint that awfully placed yellow shop with no nearby yellow homes it wouldnt cause him to remake his roads it would just be a benefit and allow him to have a bit more control over otherwise random rng. He could keep the repaint as an inventory option rather than a must use.

      @@DailyBanter96 Oh i see, keeping it as an inventory option is a great idea ngl, beacuase if it was something that you inmediately need to use i rather not use it
      And it also depends in what week they give it to you, because at one point in the game the roads are just a mess, basically everything is like a spaghetti lol, and it wouldnt be worth it changing a shop unless you are about to lose the game
      Nice idea dude

    Small update but what about adding a new kind of road, one direction roads that only alow you to move in one direction, they have double the capacity cause the other lane is the same direction and can merge with intersections and other roads as a way that can only be entered or exited, they could add a bit more control over high traffic areas and possibly form large roundabouts ect

    It’s more fun when you have one big traffic system. The disadvantage is traffic, which you don’t have at all, but the advantage is you don’t have to make manual decisions about house to imax ratios, which even if you’re good are going to kill you eventually.

    I go nuts watching when you have timers everywhere and you try to fix stuff in real-time. Use the pause button, my friend!! I’d also love for you to pause the game more often and do an overview of what you have and then explain problem areas and how you want to fix them and then take your time implementing the fixes, rather than rush through them in panic while the game keeps ticking. Just because the game isn’t moving doesn’t mean your video is less engaging, because you can pan and zoom to the areas you’re taking about. I enjoy listening to your explanations.

Where corporations control when and where we get groceries or go to the movies, and the roads are miles long, making us spend all our money on gas. (This is mostly a joke)

    I still can't get over how hyped I was for Mini Metro "sequel" and how disappointed I was with this game when it released. The upgrades feel useless mostly, you fail due to pure rng and lack of logic. Btw why we get bigger shops but everyone lives in randomly thrown around houses? I guess if they don't know the sane rules of using roundabouts then they also don;t know you can live in a bigger, multi-family building

  • @Wolfspain89
    @Wolfspain89 2 года назад +2

    As for roundabouts being unrealistic for vehicles giving way to cars aproaching. In Poland we have 2 general types of roundabouts - with priority for cars on the roundabout (approaching cars have a Give Way sign and are obliged to wait before entering roundbout if it is occupied) and without priority (right hand rule is in use, cars on the drivers right hand have priority, even over cars driving on a roundabout - those have to stop before the approach). Second type is basically a junction shapped into a circle. So it only depends on the country ;)
