Just so you know, industrial zoned buildings (NOT the plopped buildings like the coal plant or oil fields) do not create nearly as much pollution as they seem. You need hardly any separation between them and residential. This is completely different for the plopped buildings like the ones i mentioned earlier. These buildings have heavy pollution so they are the buildings you have to worry about. EDIT: Upkeep is killer in the new update. You need to be very careful early game, watching what the upkeep costs of all buildings.
Yeah, basically dont place any non essential service until you NEED it, power and water is basically all you should have until you have like 15k or more population.
@zo7034 yeah. As soon as possible I unlocked power generation so I could sell it. After that I went for taxes, kinda how rce did it in the video by lowering it to 0 and then bringing it up to 13-14%
In Oregon (US) they have straight roads. Coming out of Crater Lake - 15 miles straight. Some of the highways are just a straight shot with a bend then another straight shot and the scenery is nothing but pine trees. My dad almost fell asleep driving on those roads when we were kids and on vacation.
Same in Australia, between Melbourne and Sydney off the coast highway. In places it's like 100km (or miles if you like) of straight road, then a slight bend, then another 100. It's hilarious.
Yeah in Australia you Sat Nav says things like 'In 480 km, at the roundabout, take the second exit to continue on The New England Highway. The only reason there's a roundabout is that the highway is still the main street of many small towns. Every town pretty much the same, Top Pub, Church, RSL hall, maccas, bottom pub, then there's another 200 km of straight road... :)
Me with 30% commercial: This is fine 🔥🔥🔥 (it's not it worked before the update but when I loaded my city everything was gone before I could do anything but now I'm higher in plus then before).
Part of the economy change is the game severely punishes you for having taxes above 12%...I imagine 30% makes it even worse. It is probably a good idea to build up quickly with low taxes while your service expenses are low then set them up to that 12% threshold or so.
The very latest patch literally has instructions to set your office tax to 30% to make all the businesses move away, then put them back to normal, to fix the 5 office workers bug. One in game day at 30% tax and all your offices end up empty.
@@Xenon0000000000001 LMAO what a silly mess of things. I get what they're going for but it looks like they have a lot of bugs to clean up for the like in-between things.
@@theworsttriangle3555 and to reinforce your point im Australian so days of 35+ is normal for me but our houses are built for that UK houses are built for colder days so while myself or an American wouldnt consider it that hot in reality its pretty bad
I've found that the new update has a sort of "dead zone" between 1,500 & 3,500 people. You have a negative balance and may go into debt, but I've found that the best way to deal with this is to lower taxes, which is sorta counter intuitive. At 11% people start to complain about taxes, so i keep residential at 10%. Industrial, commercial, & offices have no obvious negatives ( like happiness), but raising them will lower demand and slow progression. If you keep your taxes low, your city will grow rapidly and before you know it, you will be making all your money back. Hope this helps into the future, it kinda hurt me seeing your taxes at 30% across the board.
Well people are still moving in in that phase and they're not actually spending money yet. So you're told you have x population, but half of them are stuck in cars waiting to get into the city
Allow me to be real for a moment: your videos are some of the few things keeping me sane at this moment. I'm suffering from depression, dysthymia, and for some reason my seasonal depression has decided to pay me a visit early this year.

@@Mrnachocheese69, even if I might be sceptical myself: they owe nothing to you, go live your own damn life. Pointless questioning like this can hurt actual people while achieving nothing productive.
Yeah, a few prominent players complained about the game being to easy. So CO made it so hard that regular old joe has to study for a couple of day's and micro manage everything for 60% of the play time to build a profitable city.
The reason that you kept having to drop the tax down to 0% is because when you heighten the tax, the businesses don't have enough money to grow and *they* start losing money. If you find the sweet spot, they will make massive amounts of money. It is also worth opening the drop downs and seeing what specific industries make more or less money and adjust the taxes accordingly. I have found this out over quite some time of trial and error.
Bro there has to be a bug with electronics because over 70% of my industry is electronics and I'm still importing electronics and I'm still making absurd amounts of money off them. I lowered them to 4% taxes because the demand and import bar was like 15x what I was producing and at 4% it makes more money than the rest of my industry combined.
On straight vs curvy roads, this is very much a thing, from a driver's perspective. I have a friend who lives about ten miles from me. The first half of the drive has hills, curves, and a lot of buildings. The second half is a long straight road with nothing but cornfields. Both stretches of road are about five miles long, but the part feels like it takes ages to drive down, and i find myself zoning out whenever i drive there.
ya the new economy definitely hits pretty hard. but the newest update now has smaller service buildings to cut down on costs. that should offset alot of the problems we're seeing in expenses
I have to say, it’s a pleasant reminder when we hear tales of your time as an engineer. Different stories and what even feel like tips, is great and actually makes me feel connected. Allowing me to associate you as a person, as weird as that sounds.
"Why are you walking on the highway??" Actually pretty common here. Used to do it all the time when I was a kid. But we stayed off the hard shoulder and in the shade. But the straight road thing is true. Used to live in West Texas, and they have perfectly straight roads out there that just go on. Found myself getting tired many times.
You didn't even visit the Production tab. If you look in there, you'll find that you are importing a lot of materials/goods that's costing you a lot of money. It's a lot cheaper if you're generating the materials/goods in your city instead of importing them. The more residence you have, the more demand for commercial goods, which leads to more demand for industrial to make those goods, which then leads to more demands for raw materials. Another factor you need to balance is employment which demands more residence the more commercial and industrial you have. You have to actually manage your population more with this Econ 2.0.
The reason the coal plant was costing so much is because it ran out of coal so you're importing it. Coal mining is needed to keep them affordable which is why my first few development points go towards getting geothermal power. Yes it's expensive, but it's like wind and solar; it doesn't have the hidden up upkeep cost of keeping it fueled. Plus since hardly anyone ever uses groundwater pumps for water needs you don't have to worry about the pollution it'll give to whatever aquifer it's placed on.
5:52 we've got one of these where I live. For years it was an open flow roundabout system where you gave way to on coming traffic. Then some tosser from state gov who's never been in the area and was unfamiliar with local traffic, decided that we needed traffic lights at all of the entrances. Their solution to fixing peek hour traffic, has only increased traffic congestion throughout the day and has done little to nothing to improve peek hour traffic. Infact, it's actually made it worse. Got to love it when edumacated people fix things for the better.
With the new changes, you can't overbuild or your services will explode your budget... just like what happened to you. Start with Turbines and develop up. You can still play single tile by building a "ring city" and then working your way to the interior favoring higher density projects in the grid. Once the urban core supports it, flip the original ring to a high speed orbital and convert the exterior to industrial.
He demonstrates something that happens in real life as well: Always be suspicious if a city is offering your company significant tax breaks for moving your business there.
Smaller cities are easier now that there's the smaller and cheaper service buildings. Edith: Matt must have recorded this in the week between the economy patch and the detailing patch that added the much cheaper service buildings.
The thing about boring roads is pretty spot on. On my home country there was a highway that crossed a hugeeeeeee steppe and it was like a straight road it would take you like 6 hours to go through if you're going like at 100km/h (~62miles/h). It was known as a very dangerous road as drivers would fall asleep at high speeds and crash in a very far awa rural area.
I actually came back to the game recently too and failed 2 cities before I noticed that I need Coal mining to run the power plant with my own coal to be positive.
I found that relying on putting in a lot of the special industry will help you make a lot of money. Without the special industries I honestly think growing your population to extreme portions before putting down a lot of what your city needs is best bet but not sure. Wish you luck RCE.
This is what happens when you don't read the patch notes and assume that the old demand structure hasn't actually changed when they told you they reworked the entire economy of the game.
I have a question: How much transit can you send to a road? That circuit you made at the beginning reminded me of a formula 1 circuit. What if you create a circular route with no exit? How many cars will enter?
I actually want to hear more about your civil engineering job/work because when you talk about how the road safety works in your career, I really enjoy your insight and true passion!
You’d think they’d have moveit and node controller as default included tools in the game. I’m still waiting til I see zone controller implemented either in base or as a mod.
In the newer patch they added a lot of smaller variants of the services wich are smaller and are less expensive wich make the Start a little bit easier
I remember thinking it was dumb that there were barriers on a straight road but not on the turns. So THAT'S why. The more you know. Still dumb to fall asleep while operating a 2 ton motorized box on wheels though.
Maybe building a public transportation network with busways and a tram for a one-tile city will allow for more demand to live there and you can make tickets pricey I think.
With this update, you have to cut down every service expenses to keep a healthy budget in early game and also increase residential taxes to around 15% while maintaining the commercial and industrial close to 10%. At least, that's how it works for the recent cities I built
When he said he was hot and not used to heat, I looked at the forecast for the next 10 days in the UK (London) and the highest high was 23C, 60% humidity. Here in the midwest during the COOLEST it will be the same time period is 26C and 65% humidity with it reaching 34C 94% humidity at the highest. I know you arent used to heat, but 23C is when people start wearing jackets....
I got clickbaited, it's not a "one tile city" like in the title, you start the game with a 3x3 tile grid so the space he was working on was a total on 9 tiles 😢
I think you did alright - it seems like once you get stuck with a loan you are definitely on the back foot for a bit. But that number was getting less negative by the end of the video.
Ah the pain of management. Found myself in that hole a fair bit before. Restarted my city and now making a whopping 177+k/h on 10% taxes across the board and 100-110% services budget, the trick is watching your maintenance costs, keep taxes low so your people want an education since the price is the same across them thus bringing in more qualified people and those qualified people want more jobs like office space and the like thus raking in even more income. I’m running a level 13 city almost to 14 with my office space at 10% taxes making me 6M. Another thing is you want to keep demand, trying to completely curb demand tanks your budget too plus with demand means more people still desire to live there and in the long run that’s what you want if you completely curb demand eventually your city budget stagnates before crashing. My biggest issues are traffic jams, I’m terrible at setting up decent junctions and the prebuilt ones are so large that I try to avoid using them, the second issue is my education coverage isn’t really up to par with my 80,921 residents lol Also try to use power plants your city has the resources for, supplying your own coal or oil needs works so much better compared to importing those goods. Plus any excess you have of said resource can go to exports thus bringing in even more income to your city.

I got clickbaited, it's not a "one tile city" like in the title, you start the game with a 3x3 tile grid so the space he was working on was a total on 9 tiles 😢
“Hot in the uk” how many weeks ago did you record this Matt?
probably on the day it came out. you can see the extra small service buildigs aren't available to build
Matt I have something to ask. Please play subnautica.
Escape Simulator has come out with a Powerwash DLC. Can you do a video where you play it?
Welcome to Coventry!
I think you did alright - it seems like once you get stuck with a loan you are definitely on the back foot for a bit. But that number was getting less negative by the end of the video.
13:59 So, you're a metal fan? Name every metal.
Lmaooo hearing about straight highways being a safety issue, whilst living in Saskatchewan.
Ah the pain of management. Found myself in that hole a fair bit before. Restarted my city and now making a whopping 177+k/h on 10% taxes across the board and 100-110% services budget, the trick is watching your maintenance costs, keep taxes low so your people want an education since the price is the same across them thus bringing in more qualified people and those qualified people want more jobs like office space and the like thus raking in even more income. I’m running a level 13 city almost to 14 with my office space at 10% taxes making me 6M. Another thing is you want to keep demand, trying to completely curb demand tanks your budget too plus with demand means more people still desire to live there and in the long run that’s what you want if you completely curb demand eventually your city budget stagnates before crashing.
My biggest issues are traffic jams, I’m terrible at setting up decent junctions and the prebuilt ones are so large that I try to avoid using them, the second issue is my education coverage isn’t really up to par with my 80,921 residents lol
Also try to use power plants your city has the resources for, supplying your own coal or oil needs works so much better compared to importing those goods. Plus any excess you have of said resource can go to exports thus bringing in even more income to your city.
I always spend what I need, then wait for a while for my money to go back up, before building again.
I'm still hoping to see another Infra play through
I kinda like it
Economy 2.0 is basically a nuzlocke
Can you make a successful city where all main roads are bridges that go above the city with ramps to take people down to independent areas?
Minus five hundred an hour. That's nearly positive...
you could prolly ask biffa plays indie games for some help, it would also be interesting to see how he tackles said challenge
