- We're back in Cities Skylines (City Skyline) engineering a way to stop a huge tsunami from wiping out my city. Can I put my real life drainage knowledge into practice to build an unfloodable city that can withstand a tsunami? The five step process all real engineers use is in place!

As a fellow engineer, I was listening to the 5 step process thinking “this doesn’t seem a robust system”…then the punchline happened and I physically groaned
same, especualy when he said impact was to do with a flood wall's strength, impact as far as I'm aware is basicly allways the effect it has on the area when being normal, but i stopped myself half way through because i'm a student and he is a profesonal enginere so he probably knows better only for it to be a joke
Even the editor was dying inside
@@jimskywaker4345 Imagine this came up on an exam, done purposefully to test the student's conviction on their own knowledge... :D
It's absolutely evil but pretty good way of knowing if they had actually studied, as well as measuring up their own self-confidence against response bias of just going along with the question/statement (or, in this case, with a fully-fledged engineer) as "they must know what they're doing"...
I was looking to see if it was real because it all made so much sense... hilarious we all got PLAYED
I stopped to question the fact and English engineer needed to worry about tsunamis everyday and the punchline hit and was just like of course he would
I love when he explains his 5 Step Proposal, you can audibly hear him smiling.
I mean when you offer such an efficient solution, who can blame him.
I saw you were at 68, so I had to like to bring it up to 69.
@@LawrenceOakheart *NICE* job.
@@LawrenceOakheart I was able to find a decent photo of the board on iFixit and it doesn’t go to ground. It looks like a “NC” pad to me. Meaning “not connected.” Like someone else said, they’re there for mounting/alignment purposes. I know pin 9 on an SD card is a data pin but that missing pad isn’t pin 9. PCBs can be hard to read sometimes. The labels on the board can be misleading because they aren’t always as obvious as you would think.
@@dewaldschuler9736 nice
Now its at 965 likes lmaoo
I'd actually watch a movie about a civil engineer stuck in a time loop, trying to save their city from a tsunami via taxpayer-funded infrastructure projects
Movie? Unlikely that you could fit it into a single movie and not completely skip all the good parts.
At that point he may as well try to get the people and valuables in the city evacuated since there would be enough time to build massive defenses
@@AK70FORYOU last known city on earth in a disconnected island do to global warming.
Not this specif, but there are lots of isekai manga out there that deal with modern knowledge in past times. I recommend Jin, where a 2000´s doctor gets sent 138 years into the past.
Enj of Tommorrow
Imagine living in that city with a beautiful view of the 300 foot high pump dam in front of the ocean.
@repentandbelieveinJesusChrist2did I ask?
@@object-officialThat's what happens when you have to look at the pump dams, you get infected by the Jesus lmao
Imagine just living your life, slowly watching a 1000ft tsunami inexorably advancing towards your city
Year after year people go to work on the pumping stations, build businesses, get married and raise kids, desperately hoping that their civil engineering megaproject is enough.
many places in japan are like that right now... (not 300 foot, but still big enough to not see the ocean)
RCE is *so* used to using the strongest shape he built it by accident. Wouldn't be surprised if he someday uses it in his *real* engineering job, goes through all the approval processes, and then notices his mistake
"mistake"
Here's hoping!
let's be honest at this point I wouldn't be surprised if his signature was a 🍆. 🤣
☹️
He doesn't have that job anymore, he's only a youtuber now
I feel like the first canal solution would have prevented total destruction and just left a flash flood in real life but the physics engine couldn’t handle it.
Also note the tsunami in game is notably larger than in real world. Tsunamis in real-world usually don't get over 30 meters in height. This one scaled a wall easily over triple that.
@@vojtik135 Yeah. From videos I've seen they're mostly just a bunch of ocean unstoppably moving inland, not a "giant wave" as such that people think
@@GlennDavey I've heard that most the destruction actually comes from the water moving back INTO the ocean. Other than that it's more like a heavy flood than a huge wave
@@CamdalftheGreat Yeah! it's more a flood, that's what I was trying to say. haha thank you
Wow
Used the P.E.N.I.S method to effectively plug my drainage pipe. Thanks RCE!
Sounds painful 😂
And now, for the Engineer's motto: "Looks good on paper, sucks in real life."
these pumping stations work under water too?🤣🤣🤣
where does the water go, again?🤣🤣🤣
Not a particularly realistic tsunami, but it is interesting that the game's fluid model causes the water level at the shore to fall before the tsunami front arrives. That happens in real life as well - during the 2004 Indonesian tsunami a guy who had read about that behavior in Scientific American managed to get a bunch of people to high ground ahead of the tsunami, likely saving their lives.
I think it may have been a kid, was on vacation with there family
His daughter, who paid attention in class that day and, he had the sense to listen to her unlike those rubbish horror movies where he'll 'be right back'.
If you ever see the ocean retreating from the shoreline, It's not going away. It's just winding up for a punch.
This guy can speak many languages however, today he spoke facts.
@@samuellasky7771 I watch the ocean retreat twice a day.
Put down the pipes first, then attach the pumps to them as you place them, don't have to connect them all individually after ;) (sorry, couldn't resist xD)
But can you copy paste them that way and they still are conected?
@@aramisortsbottcher8201 I don’t think so but in the end it’s actually quicker. You have to lay down the pipes any way and if you did the pumps first you would then have to go around clicking to connect them. So you do the same but instead of clicking to connect the pumps, you are clicking to place them. So that such take about the same amount of time. But if you do the pumps first you also have to take the time to place the pumps and you don’t have that time if you do the pipes first.
@@rachelcookie321 hm, you may be right.
Had to upvote to a: get the likes to 69 and b: real civil architect himself asked for no better processes in the comments
Well i couldnt not look for someone posting the answer, seems like he could have basically done it in +- 2 min
"Imagine the carnage on that junction, that's going to be interesting seeing how they cope with that"
^ 90% sure this is a quote from whoever planned the roads near my current workplace.
That's brutal XD
4:28
What a masterpiece.
Matt, do you know the game "tidal tribes"? This is kinda the core game play of the game. You are the engineer or god, if you like, of some tribes and they are bombarded by floods, so you have to engineer the landscape to safe them and make them thrive. I think you would enjoy it and it would make for some good videos.
That actually sounds quite fun
@@JP-rp2lh it is and at least in the last steam sale it was like five or six euros. It has even a little more to it, but the sand shifting to build dams and create lakes is the main game, but the tribes people get new tech and more modern buildings, if you take good care of them and depending on the settings, go to war with each other if the social gap is to big (like if you only care for the ones on one half of the map) and there is stuff like natural disaster settings.... It get's a little repetitive after a while, tho. But still fun and for the price (at least in sale, no idea what they take usually)
This sounds like a spiritual successor to From Dust and I love that such a thing might exist.
@@Xanthelei From Dust is such an underrated game
I would love to hear all the engineering babble! Honestly I think if you did a channel around drainage engineering it would be interesting. Something like what Practical Engineering does. Or even a collaboration video.
It's what I subbed for after all
Practical Engineering does a lot of ground water stuff so RCE should create Impractical Engineering where he only demonstrates surface water drainage in a penis shaped water bed.
@@firestorm165 me too
The sound affects hurt my ears more than him actually talking.
Agreed. If I wanted dumb game stuff there’s thousands of channels that can show that stuff. Not many channels who can explain the engineering decisions behind their designs and see what the game does correctly/incorrectly in terms of drainage systems. Engineer is 1/3 of the channel title, ffs!
"Usually when I spend 4 hours on something its guarantee not to work..."
Damn, it's been a while since last time I subscribed to someone. :) Hope you've got more good videos like that because its simple great!
Very interesting, but probably far cheaper to just evacuate the entire city and build a whole new one far away from the coast.
true true
Your weird kid …
@@Nightman5694false false
That's boring, he needs content not a ghost save
Man that Rick roll of a 5 step process was too good. Us fellow non-professional engineers were totally foolex until you got to strength.
Rick roll of a 5 step process?
This reminds me when I am at the beach and trying to stop the waves from hitting my castle
Your castle needs super pumps around the moat
I do this every time I go to a beach.
Same
you have to use P.E.N.I.S.
I love when he explains his 5 Step Proposal, you can audibly hear him smiling.
Oh no.. the queen
My new routine is watching RCE during my lunch break. My favorite routine of the day
Same
Sameee
Isn't everyone happy coz rce uploaded cities skylines
Your E30 in the Profile pic?
@@mullerman1104 what about it??
@@jaydenannamalay3344 It’s a nice one, I like the Stance of your wheels. Original BBS?
The name didn’t age well. The queen does not wave anymore
she used too 3:11
I know RCE used to do drainage engineering IRL but sometimes I wonder if the reason that is his former job is because he worked for Atlantis.
He even forgot the actual tsunami and was just dealing with the first little one
9:50, I think it could have worked, if the front wasn‘t parallel to the wave, but a peak. If it is just a wall, the Water tends to rise higher, because it is the only way to go. If it has an angle, it gets more deflected
I am confused by what you mean. Parallel horizontally or vertically? Do you mean you need an angle vertically or horizontally?
@@rachelcookie321 I think he means it should be more wedge shaped to pierce the wave instead of blunt.
@@valfreyaaurora4922 like more arrow shaped instead of U shaped?
@@rachelcookie321 ya, more V instead of U
Yeah, thats what I ment. More an Arrow into the sea, not the U shape he did
As a teenager, one of my favorite pastimes was sitting on the loo, designing mega projects like this one in my head. The tiles on the floor were literally city blocks connected by water channels, like in Venice
nerd lol rekt
What you need to do is engineer a city that kills everyone possible with as small a wave as possible, without just making a big hole. Like structurally funnel the wave to maximize the impact
Shut up
That punchline at the end of the 5 Step Proposal hit me harder than any tsunami ever could, I never saw it coming
One of the reasons I like this channel, aside from the shenanigans, is the fact that there's always a tiny bit to learn about engineering. Might not be enough to become an actual engineer, but at least it caused me to be more conscious of all the tiny details I now often find in buildings every day
*Displays my Real Civil Engineer Training Certificate*
The queen doesn't wave anymore
Because she☠️
the irony of mentioning the queen
It's so satisfying to watch the Sunami-Defender 3000 having a big drink of the sea. Would be nice to have a water-fun-park close to the city to bring joy to the people living there.
4:20 I am not even surprised that RCE's 5 step proposal for tsunami survival has the acronym of the strongest shape 😅😆
haha 420 funny
It's Spine, right?
Yea Surely The Strongest Shape 💀
@@wta1518 I Hope It's Not The Human Spine B'Cos Human Spines Are Weak Compared To The Spines Of Other Species
Me building a sandcastle in the surf as a child basically did this lol
I need to get this because I really enjoyed playing SimCity when I was a kid and this just looks like a more advanced version of it
As a Dutch engineer I am curious how you are defending your self from the see
@Ahmed Aaqib saie
Sea
Or in dutch zee
Gekoloniseerd 🇳🇱
*Tsunami/Vloedgolf
I like how you built canals in the end. A real "last ditch" effort there!
Btw, could you build a line of dams to block the tsunami and power your city? Or would they break from the impact of the wave?
dams let some water through
Huge fan of your videos and couldn't put it on a scale of exactly how much of a fan I am... okay maybe tsunami proportions! Great job mate!
4:36 He sounded so jolly when he said that…
Now try defending against a level 100 tsunami from the Ragnarok extreme mod
Ragnarok only allows 25.5, but Ragnarok extreme allows up to 500
The base disaster mod only allows a measly 10
5:25 reminds me of when I would build a castle at the beach and put barriers around it to block the tide from coming in for as long as possible. Did you ever do that as a kid?
Yes
Yes. I would try to make a canal straight through my sand castle and send the water back out the other end.
I used to build a sand castle with defences and see if my fortifications would hold up
Yes
The tide in the Bay of Finland is like... ten centimeters or so, so no. Would have enjoyed that, tho.
You might be interested to know about the Vajont dam disaster in Italy. The area surrounding the dam was deemed geologically unstable but the company running the dam purposely hid this from authorities. They were expecting a landslide and a resulting Tsunami of around 25 metres high and thought the dam could block the Tsunami. Because of this they did not inform the villages in the below valley. Turns out the landslide was a lot larger than expected and it resulted in a mega tsunami that went over the dam and into the valley below causing around 2000 deaths. The dam still exists today, though it's no longer in operation.
This is really too amazing.
Yup
11:11 the best way is copy and paste the pipes as well
Engineering at its finest
You absolutely laid out those pumps in the most efficient qnd overall best way possible. Nothing could be improved.
I've been avoiding watching this video for days now, Great video BTW. Had a really great time watching the video. thanks
You may think that RCE is family friendly, until he designs something to be the strongest possible or if he comes up with acronyms
Repent and follow Jesus my friend! Repenting doesn't mean confessing your sins to others, but to stop doing them altogether. Belief in Messiah alone is not enough to get you into heaven - Matthew 7:21-23, John 3:3, John 3:36 (ESV is the best translation for John 3:36). Contemplate how the Roman empire fulfilled the role of the beast from the sea in Revelation 13. Revelation 17 confirms that it is in fact Rome. From this we can conclude that A) Jesus is the Son of God and can predict the future or make it happen, B) The world leaders/nations/governments etc have been conspiring together for the last 3000+ years to accomplish the religion of the Israelites C) History as we know it is fake. You don't really need to speculate though because you can start a relationship with God and have proof. Call on the name of Jesus and pray for Him to intervene in your life. - Revelation 3:20
Revelation has been unfolding since Jesus died. The Popes have claimed to be equal to God and set themselves in Jesus' place (antichrist(s)). Vatican City (Which is its own nation BTW) have risen up to fulfill the role of the false prophet
Regarding the man of lawlessness or antichrist, 2 Thessalonians 2:4 says “Who opposes and exalts himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sits in the temple of God, showing himself that he is God.” The restrainer that the Apostle Paul was referring to in 2 Thessalonians was the Western Roman Emperor, who held back the Popes from taking power. Once the last Western Roman Emperor was removed from power in 476 AD, the Pope was given civil and ecclesiastic authority over Rome; healing the deadly head wound of the beast in Revelation 13, as they took the Emperors title of Pontifex Maximus, leader of the church and state.
“We may according to the fullness of our power, dispose of the law and dispense above the law. Those whom the Pope of Rome doth separate, it is not a man that separates them but God. For the Pope holdeth place on earth, not simply of a man but of the true God.” (Source: “Decretals of Gregory IX,” Book 1, chapter 3.)
Pope Pius V blasphemed, “The Pope and God are the same, so he has all power in Heaven and earth.” (Source: Pope Pius V, quoted in Barclay, Cities Petrus Bertanous Chapter XXVII: 218.)
Pope Leo XIII declared, “We hold upon this earth the place of God Almighty.” (Source: Pope Leo XIII Encyclical Letter, June 20, 1894)
The antichrist sea beast of Revelation points to the office of the papacy, the Popes of Rome, who controlled the Roman beast for 1,260 years, from 538-1798 AD.
Daniel 7:25 says “And he shall speak great words against the most High, and shall wear out the saints of the most High, and think to change times and laws: and they shall be given into his hand until a time and times and the dividing of time.” The Popes of Rome spoke against Elohim and proclaimed to be God. They reigned for 1,260 years, from 538-1798 AD. during which they caused tens of millions of saints to be killed.
The Pope’s title is Vicar of Christ, which in Latin is ‘Vicarius Filii Dei’, and equates numerically to the number 666
I love the solutions that rce comes up with.
The timing of the video was perfect! Entertaining the whole time and the build was very professional and fast! Concept was very cool with the giant wave of water in SimCity , I didn’t know the game could do that! Some of the scenes, it looked more like a video from a movie than SimCity … very cool! Great job!
God damn it I didn't see that 5 step process coming at all lmao
This reminds me of being at the beach and protecting a sand castle
1:18 that junction is literally in beverly hills, CA. i’ve driven it countless times and it’s always a nightmare
Was there any way around it?
No wonder it's the strongest shape! It's literally been hammered into your head throughout college. And I'm glad you actually got to use it each day at work
i have been a marine engineer for about 4 years now, and this makes me happy cause my job is to make propulsion and water drainage systems
P.E.N.I.S.
Truly a life saver.
A hot life saver😏
RCE is so dedicated to the strongest shape, it's outstandingly impressive.
Bringing back some memories of me as a kid on the beach defending my sand castles. Except for the pumps my strategy was the same.
this 5 step process better than what i learned in school thanks you🙏🏾
15:32 Sasageyo! Sasageyo!
RCE's had a thought again! Everyone get in your anti-engineer bunkers.
"My city is safe from tsunami's"
"Oh, is that our yearly rates in mail?"
"It's $126 million per annum"
The way you edited the vocals for “cue the engineer babble” is what I hear from the moment I wake up until I fall asleep. But they have accents and some speak languages I don’t understand but recognize the ethnicity.
me watching this (3:12) after the queen dies 😭🥺
They made lawn mowing simulator free on epic games
10:33 - I had an idea. What if you kept that walled mountain as before. Do a slope into the bottom, and create a drain exit where the water can push out into the ocean? And the city is pushed further away from the coast, with another mountain, except this time, you create a bunch of drain exits near the end where the water drains into the bottom, and filters itself out into the ocean like the first one?
It’s crazy that I haven’t seen anything from this game on CZcams for atleast the past 2 years and earlier I was thinking about playing this game like back in 2015 on my old Mac and then boom. 45 minutes later CZcams suggested this video. Crazy.
8:55 I've seen this design somewhere before
This makes me wonder, as outlandish as this may sound, is it possible to engineer a city that can survive every natural disaster? Quite the fun thought and I will certainly be thinking about this for a while
13:35 - Narnia, the waters being pumped to Narnia
From my analysis the canals would serve as drains to break down the tsunami but it wouldn’t work as seen because it overflowed due to the size of the tsunami water going in the canal in large quantities also great video keep up the great and creative work
First time watching in a while and it's incredible how much you have grown since I first watched. Well done
the queen doesnt wave anymore
She’s dead
When I initially heard the 5 step proposal I thought I was going to learn something interesting then I noticed the acronym lmao. Caught me by surprise 🤣
I groaned and chuckled and facepalmed at the same time - forgetting the I was holding the phone with my palm hand
My phone has a steel case protector
Prompting me to drop said phone into my hot soup and I choked on the summer roll in was chewing
I nearly died 5 different ways thanks to your 5 step process!
My only issue with this is that the wave is not a tsunami. The main character of a tsunami is that it's not just a wave. Its a platue of water that doesn't stop for quite a while... That's way harder to defend against
architects: *does whatever works enough*
engineers: *does whatever works the best*
also architects: hmmm lets make this a bit more stylish
also engineers: HMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM THIS NEEDS MORE FUNCTIONALITY. IT MAY NOT LOOK GOOD BUT IT WILL WORK PERFECTLY
Great Idea, perhaps i must consider it on my save game
You're the greatest inventor in online games history.
more Cities: Skylines , yes please
Man... They cut out arguably the best part of the video. Watching a real engineer design a city is what originally drew me to this as one of my favourite series.... that is until...... The incident.
Now that spot rests safely and untarnishably with Infra. Such a shame the actual engineering bits were replaced with pee pee poo poo jokes imo
what incident?
What incident?
What incident x3?
Incident what??
I love the acronym he used! It helps me remember how to build strong walls!
I was goofing around with one a while back I created sub surface channels and some inverted tesla flumes along the coast without building a 100 foot wall, the idea was to take the feet out from under it Basically "tripping it" then redirect the surge, dispersing it along the shore.
Genuinely thought the 5 step engineering whatnot was actually serious, and it is, but then he mentioned the punchline 😂 🤣
Wait? Why 1-4, when we have the STRONGEST SHAPE for #5?!
seriously.. having a city buildier with terraforming and borderline realistic water physics.. is a selling argument for the game on its own.. XD
Where is all the water going? don't worry about that, details, details 🤣🤣🤣🤣that was huge dude 👍
This would be a really cool setting for a D&D city in a water world-type environment.
I can imagine the pumps being a long lost technology, no one knows what they do or why they pump, just that if they ever stop, it will be the end of civilisation.
11:27 there’s a better way
2:40 makin my way towards town, coming fast, days-es pass, and im -homebound- coming for you and your loved ones
That junction lookin like the Hot Wheels Criss-Cross Crash!
This is the type of video that is pushing me to get my biology degree. I also want to use my full capability to... I don't know... Maybe design a zoo that would not only treat the animals as kings but to use the humans as food for their new masters? Just a thought. Thank you Mr engineer.
I've had dreams of such things one a larger scale. Would it be logical for wind to be the next line of defense necessary? I've thought often of wind being a major factor once large scale barriers are in play to protect against rising seas/super storms etc.
Mat when you said your thing to remeber the 5 ways of engenering I groaned
03:13
God damn that pun caught me completely off guard 😂😂
Sadly there are no super water pumps in real life. They could be very handy in cases of flood protection ^^
This name didnt age well
Huh
I’m not sure why I started watching this but now I’m hooked 🤷♂️
There is an intersection exactly like that in Beverly Hills and it’s hilarious to drive through on a busy day
