    The stuck train wagons work in my head canon - it's a railway town, a new development wanted to reflect this and bought some old good cars to place on its land, despite trains never actually going there in reality.
    Sure, it's a bit corny and false, but that's what people visiting the town associate with it, so the hotel hopes to lure them in by pandering to their expectations.

      Maybe the story could be that the rail line to the island New Dollarton sits on once ended somewhere in that village as it was the hill that was first settled in the region. There could be some remnants of an old station on the coast near the town.

  • @CustomBooch
    @CustomBooch Месяц назад +19

    couple of ideas:
    - the train line at 14:08 got abandoned due to a massive derailment of a train containing hazardous materials, you could do that by putting some train props near the rail tracks. The train on the top of the plateau could become a custom park, as a memorial.
    - the slope at 14:22 is insane.
    anyway, have a great one 2.20

    Fear and loathing in New Dimesburg… it’s painful to watch the struggle, but I can tell the bones of a great game/engine are there. Unrelated, but those grain hopper railcars stuck on top of the hill scream “brewery” to me. If you put a silo up there, that building could definitely be some kind of craft brewery.

    Great build, also even more impressive how you stayed persistent even throughout the glitches and bugs!
    For district names: One thing I’ve done is I had a district named Bridgeview due to a major elevated highway running throughout it. My advice is to take a striking unique feature (the elevation above the city, wealthy neighborhoods, etc) and name the development off of that. Hopefully tie it to the currency trend youve created.

    For the stuck train pieces, have you tried the debug menu? If memory serves, you should be able to use under the simulation tab something called “toggle object manipulation” or something similar. If you won’t be able to delete it through there, you should be able to at least move it. I use that to move broken vehicles causing traffic jams. I drag the broken car elsewhere and it recalculates the pathing and usually fixes it. Worst case scenario it is out of the way.

    A lot of old train lines were repurposed in the US as walking trails, so you could add a train line under the trains itself to support the trains for realism, while creating a pedestrian walking path down the hill, it will add walkability and realism.

    The new development could have been an old fort turned armory/ammo plant that shut down. Train cars were leftovers that brought in solid propellants and the commercial building was the HQ building. Put some old tunnel entrences both for rail and pedestrians around the hillsides to denote both the entryway for the rail and maybe fallout shelters or underground storage/escape tunnels.

    That train car could be a kitsch tourist attraction, like those AirBnBs "unique stays" - _"stay in an old train car for the night!"_ type thing. It doesn't even need to have context then; it's just a hotel manager who saw a business opportunity, found some old train cars on Craigslist, and decided to capitalise on tourists looking for something fun to post on their Instagram. Just like in the real world!

    I know this is taking a lot of inspiration from Jersey City and Hoboken. And I'd say that rail line you have currently paralleling the cliffside would be better as a tram line. It's actually what it currently functions as in real life. It helps get folks north and south of the Hoboken area into Manhattan across the water at the Hoboken train station. As they transfer to the PATH either to lower Manhattan or midtown.

    Like, one connecting central station to the industry park up north through the city center, one connecting central station with the east, one with the west, an east-west connection through the city center and an express bus line that runs from outside the map to a park and ride situation.
    Oh, and a connecting line for people who work at the taxis but don't have a car of their own to get to work.
    ...or, make a tram network.

    For the traffic light at 33:06, there is a mod called "Traffic Light Enhancement" that lets you modify the traffic light settings. There is also the "Traffic" mod (similar to TM:PE's lane connector tool) where you can use that to modify turn lanes and that type of stuff.

  • @radred609

    I think the solution to that interchange at 33:15 is to prevent the cross traffic.
    It reminds me a bit of that intersection at Broadway on the USYD corner. Cars attempting to cross from the Princes Highway straight into Bay St constantly mess with the traffic flow there... not to mention the multiple near misses I witnessed when i used to work there, both pedestrian and vehicle alike.

    I like the rail cars there, sometimes people just end up with stuff they need a place for. Maybe the owner of the hotel just ended up getting those rail cars from friends or family and didn't want to get rid of them, or bought them at an auction of some sort and thought they would make for an interesting monument at their business. It is unfortunate that they're hoppers and not passenger cars, else you could have turned them into a café of some sort.

    Grocer Heights was far away from the stink of manure and slaughterhouses. There used to be a short electric freight interurban that delivered produce and meat up the steep grade. Eventually, they were replaced by trucks. The locally owned hotel commemorates that historic past replaced by big box food retailers.
