- This time I'm back in the train traffic management game Mini Metro, and this time I try to make the most of circular lines. I discover that micromanaging is the best way to get high scores in Mini Metro!

#realcivilengineer #engineering #mini metro - Hry
I imagine this is how Melbournes train system was running. "Train arriving in 3 minutes" 2 minutes later "Your train has been cancelled", A moment later we see the giant engineering hand in the sky picking up our train and moving it to another train line.
As a melbourian(???), I can confirm this is how our train lines work
@@Maxidosas a melbournian I can confirm ur confirmation
just another day on the sunbury line tbh
The engineering hand:🥛🗿
This happened on my first time taking the DB from Frankfurt to Cologne. I was expecting a giant hand to deliver a train. P.S I was playing Mini Metro then too lol.
Matt, the interchange upgrade has two benefits:
1. Expanded station capacity.
2. Faster loading and unloading of passengers.
wouldve been perfect for that one square
i never realized that second bit.
it unload three carriqges practically instantly
Just a note Matt, that if you get all the extra lines right away when there's less complexity, it removes that option later on when you need bridges/interchanges/carriages. Generally powering through all the line upgrades gives you more flexibility later.
As a Swede, i can confirm that tunnels are banned here.
That’s why it’s called the Tunnel-ban-a
What about the Southern Link?
In Stockholm most of tunnelbanan (Metro) goes underground thou. But we do have train lines that goes on the ground/roads too.
@@Gillysaurxx its a lie no such thing
We do love our bridges though! It's probably why we banned tunnels. Why tunnel, when you can bridge?
8:45 Actually, the opposite is true. The Stockholm Metro is currently adding 17something stations to the network, all of which will be underground. The reason for this is partially because of Stockholms geography, if all of it is underground you don't have to build bridges all of the time to get to Stockholms numerous islands.
Yea.. you kind of would think that was the point of a subway... that they alreddy are in tunnels
@@matsv201 they don’t always need to be
@@CABOOSEBOB well.. of cause that is true. And Stockholm does have several subway bidges. And Stockholm is very mountains. Can be over grund at on station and be deep in the moutain at the next with out the train going up or down.
E
RCE just completely forgetting the spare train at the end there. It would have saved him XD
LOL i didn't even notice.
I was dying while he kept changing trains around

The reason why there are so many rivers here in sweden is because stockholm is by the coast and sweden has the most islands in the world. Fun fact: there is a stop in stockholm which is called "triangeln" (you can guess what that means) and it better be a triangle stop.
EDIT: THE TRIANGELN STOP IS IN MALMÖ NOT STOCKHOLM SORRY
Here in Canada, on the border with the U.S.A we have the thousand islands.
@@Doi- Well, we have over 200000 here, so you lost by a lot.
@@skedzer4803 are they all actually islands, like, you can build on them all.
@@Doi- Yeah, it's beacause sweden is rising after the ice over it at the ice age so that makes many islands.
@@skedzer4803 ahh, well the more you know, always wanted to take a trip through Europe, now if I ever can Sweden is on my list.
I'm hoping for the world's first bridge review of a tunnel.
i think that would be an OnlyFans exclusive lol
I have to admit, for once I was completely bamboozled by the thumbnail. I was looking forward to more literal rings and seeing them be somehow amazing
The thumbnail was obviously fake with only circle stations
@@kylefarrell849 I didn't notice that 😅
I was so used to RCE trying wacky builds that I just kinda trusted it lol. I should have known better
FINALLY, Matt decides to delete absolutely everything and redesign things. I think that it would've saved him in a few circumstances before, honestly. 😀
Two somewhat tips;
Highlighting the circles at the bottom allow you to quickly and easily delete an entire line
The red line failed so often (the 14:20 design) because the trains traveling in that direction only look for stations that it can hit going that direction. To better explain it, when traveling from the square station to the “rightward” tracks, it’ll never pick up any square passengers, then once it passes the second triangle station, it’ll no longer pick up any other passengers until it reaches the end of the line.
0:12 that's (almost) a beautiful logarithmic normal (or lognormal) distribution if I say so myself!
Quick tip :) if you want to delete a line, you can click on the color ball corresponding to the color of the line and then click on the little black x that then shows on the ball:) love the vids btw!
my granny called she said travvy you work too hard im worried you gon forget about me ball ball ball
2:50 And suddenly you actually implemented the actual two first subway lines in Stockholm. 🙂
(Well, almost that rightmost circle doesn't exist, there is still no subway station anywhere near that place).
Matt loves bridges so much that he can't use the word "tunnel" for very long XD
Something i have learned is that sharp bends at a station slow things down. You can kind of adjust the paths to make bends less sharp, which means trains go faster when passing though.
I think I would have died laughing if someone above you on the leader board was called "The Architect" just imagine the drive in you to beat them lol 😆
A tunnel is just a way to turn something else into a bridge
🤯
If you create a circle line have trains go opposite directions
Today's daily challenge happens to be Stockholm btw. Had bad tunnel problems as well. Then I kept picking them and ran out of lines. 630 :/
After a year of not watching RCE and youtube generaly , I can see he went from 10k subs when i subbed to 1,4M ,my man totally deserves that
14:00 - "Can we see any nice patterns" - i've expected strongest shapes.
Missed opportunity honestly
Matt, you still had an unused train left at the end.
RCE big fun but having that extra train and not using it
Here's a challenge you could try: use as few locomotives as possible, preferably only one per line. But attach as many carriages to it as you can. Let's see how far you can get with just a few super long trains
0:30 Sweden is called "the venice of the north" by some due to it's many waterways, being built on several islands and all...
"Hello fellow Engineeeers", and my day is immediately a bit better 👷♂️👍
The RNG of these games are what make them entertaining to watch but not for me to want to play them. The ones that at least let you trade resources to buy what you need are FAR better balanced.
What is a tunnel - but an inverted bridge! Bridge review needed.
Are lines not always better than new/expanded carriages? They come with a carriage and you can drop it right on any station that needs help, and once you get them all they don't appear in rewards any.ore so you get better selections
They don't come with a locomotive. You get a locomotive no matter what each week. Carriages expand total passenger carrying capacity so they are almost always better
Lol imagine if the train line you took to work in the morning just suddenly wasn't there after your shift ended.
atleast at 4:01 the layout actually resembles the real network slightly (the colors are right and everything), that is interesting.
I noticed the trains are not picking up passengers if the line leads to a dead end, and would need to turn around before it arrived at a correct stop. If the lines are looped, then the passengers will always be picked up, because thier stop will always be forward (no dead end where train has to U-turn)
Aaaah, moving trains around when you still have a spare locomotive!
Stockholm was my best map so far. I got top 1% on my first go. I was forced to get creative early on to connect all the land regions with two loops with the number of bridges I had. It turned out to be a good pattern that totally carried me because I could take more lines and carriages at weeks ends.
Minor efficiency tweak, don't have lines cross each other outside of a station and try to keep all paths through stations at right or obtuse angles. Intersections outside of stations and acute angles waste time by slowing the trains down.
RCE you can run lines parallel with eachother, you keep saying you need more trains, you can add a line that goes to the same stops and you get 1 train with every line
You don't get "1 train with every line" though. You get 1 train each week regardless whether you pick the line, the carriage, or anything else the RNG throws at you.
The surprise ‘du gamla du fria’ scared me. So many midsummer celebrations… I’m having flashbacks from the war
If y’all wanna try mini metro, the London level is on cool math. I found it a few weeks ago.
Sweden - the country where engineers and architects have learned to cooperate, only to discover the problem of historians.
Yo! Jace from Satisfactory was talking about you today on the dev stream!! Talking about getting you on to do Bridge reviews for Satisfactory!! PLEASE DO IT!!!!
Well, the Metro (or Tunnelbana) in Sweden have tunnels. But in the game tunnels are for going under water and I think thats what this is about. Because bridges and tunnels under Lake Mälaren are few on the metro (and the road system).
(The blue on the map is actually a lake and not a river)
Imagine getting to the end of that game, micro managing everything, only to finish with 1 train left unused in the bank. Doh!
Just picked this game up on mobile. Much fun.
Stockholm is built on quite a lot of granite, so making tunnels for our subway *was* difficult. No idea if that's why the game gave you so few tunnels though. In the expansion of Stockholm's subway that's being built now, deep rock under Saltsjön, ("Salt lake", the water to the east of the south island "Södermalm" on the map), has forced the upcoming new station Sofia to have to become one of the deepest subway stations in the world.
As a Swede, I can confirm that it is wet here. Especially in the cities built on river deltas.
why am I so enthralled with this series?
4:02 the island could easily be reached. Either shorten the blue line on the left and link the circle to the end of the green line to free up a bridge or do what I did. Use all 5 bridges to make a loop from the south bank to the left island to the middle island to the square on the north bank to the new circle on the right island and back to the south bank. Use a second loop to join everything on the north bank including an overlap on the square for an interchange so diamond passengers can connect to the north bank loop. Edit: after continuing to watch I saw you took the first option. You did get hosed by not getting any more tunnels / bridges though.
Those passengers: Let's go to a triangle station. I don't care which it is, just has to be triangle
Lol the no tunnels that first round I was dieing inside.
got a mini metros ad before this video hahah ive mever had a mini metros ad before lol
Im a swede and seeing matt be so surprised over the amount of lakes is funny.
Sweden actually is the country with the most islands
7:48 I would have probably used the brown line here to connect every second triangle and circle up to the square.
I don't know if two colors need two tunnels, or if they can share one.
i love when you just hit with the "du gamla du fria du fjäll höga nord"
I was stuck on Stockholm FOR AGES!! I got kind of used to it after a while, and when I finally completed it, I kind of missed the challenge it gave me and the many frustrations I had trying to figure it out :(
I still go back and play that level every now and again...
Matt sleeping on the power of train with loads of carriages that deals with your massive cluster of circles.
21:08 is the timestamp, when RCE fucks up and forgets he has extra train, only tries to use it on his main-line(blue) and fails. He should have just stuck that train to any other line.
Would love to see more of this
There's already a whole backlog of this series that you can watch
@@RoseOnFire already watched that when it came out
@@cascadia6260 ah
Ooh! I had hoped you'd get back to this game.
Tip: To delete a line: 1. click the line colour / circle @ (bottom) 2. click the X
finally i love this thx rce the best
1:03 don't worry. The Earth is just a bridge over the tunnel. 👍
At 2:40 hes actually recreated the red swhedish metro line
Whenever i play this game i try to make sure that every line has at least one of each shape on it. That way no passengers have to get off and change lines. It is hard to do on this map though because youll use tons of tunnels/bridges doing it
I got a mini metro advert just before this video lol
2:27 the rhyme!!!!!
6:40 "that is so hideous" as he looks at the strongest shape, I am disappointed Matt
Edit: you should do more station sharing between lines, then multiple lines can serve multiple stations reducing individual stress of each line
"Sweden, home of squares."
2 major rivalries:
Violin vs Bass
Matt vs Architects
Day 22 of asking RCE to play scrap mechanic
joining you i need this
I wanted this to happen like months ago
And i still want this to happen 💜💜
Agreed, great idea
That use to be one of his main games a while back if I remember correctly, just slowly left it.Still agree that he should go back
Truly a game that seperates the architects from the engineers.
Always providing us with quality content!
argh I was yelling so hard at the end of the video that you had a spare train undeployed while you were moving your existing ones around! lol
3:06 Greaser Pipe Wrench agrees with this statement.
You seem so sad every time you have to get rid of one of your circular lines 🤣
7:49 Blue Line is very strong
He had an extra train at the end
Bro had an extra train at the end he never put down, def. would have helped
How tf CZcams Recommendations know that I just played this game
As a Swed, I can approve we are the home of squares and we have lots of rivers.
Note: I am not joking for the comment I do come from Sweden the only joking part is the squares.
I think I like Minimetro more than Minimotorway, Let's not ignore that I enjoy watching them both when you play.
21:10 lmao I laughed way too much
14:56 the blue line looks like a bird
13:55 you can just click on the lines at the bottom of your screen and click the x to delete them
Matt, you exploited the game till it broke. Your Patreons and subscribers are proud
The place used to have tunnels, but then all the engineers got sick with a strange illness that prevented them from being able to design tunnels.
This later became known as Stockholm Syndrome.
Tunnels are just underground Bridges change my mind
Expectation: circles
Reality: this shit
Have you ever played railroad tycoon they're quite fun and I think it would be perfect for your channel
I love many motorways I don't know how I have never played this game
The funny thing about RCE is now, whenever I am upset at someone, I call them an architect. They get so very confused.
Yay the minis are back
Every strategy is doable until every spawn in the area is circle
Sweeeeden! Love the national hymn at 3:10!
The Birthplace of Ikea, now destroyed by RCE!
Weirdly none of the rivers are showing up in the video. Also, there's a specific challenge for each level - beat that specific challenge and it unlocks hard mode for the level.
5:27 the green does not care
and today's sponsor is: Lord Of the Rings!
I just moved to Sweden to begin my Doctorate, and I am very glad for this random chance. Signs everywhere
underrate game .. love it so much
you gotta love how at 6:23 he says *come on game you're breaking my balls*
An extra caradge car would allow you to carry more passengers faster.
