  • We're taking on classic Cities Skylines (City Skyline) challenges whilst we wait for Cities Skylines 2 (CS2). This time we're engineering a city on a tiny empty island where we'll need to expand the land mass as we grow our city!
    Shout out to @ambiguousamphibian for the inspiration for the challenge!

      Using a hexagon, that's true architecture, but true engineers know either a triangle, an arch or the strongest shape. All else is on the road to being an Architect.

    Tip: As you create land on top of water, it floods (as you know). But the water needs some time to be released out of the newly formed land. So the roads can turn into bridges, and the zoning may not work. Just give it some time, and it should work. 😊

    • @ChemicalCrash
      @ChemicalCrash Před 10 měsíci +4

      I’ve also found that sometimes you can speed it up a little by “upgrading” the road to another type of road that uses the same amount of tiles…however that can sometimes cost a bit of cash.

    • @michaelbutton1789
      @michaelbutton1789 Před 10 měsíci +2

      The way I get over zoning not appearing where it should is to build a section of fence where the zone is missing. Then delete the fence immediately. Small cost for the fence, mostly refunded when deleted, but it generates the zoning !!

    Given both the inspiration for the challenge, and the sheer number of times the island got flooded, I feel like the title of RealCivilAmphibian should be given to the mayor I love that towards the end, the city planning turned from needs-based zoning to a spending spree of giant monuments and useless buildings to flex the confusing amount of wealth the city generated. When the next major flood inevitably comes, I want a spot on the arch to watch the cars all majestically drift down the grid
