    Cities Skylines Industries:
    In one of the most in-depth expansions in Cities: Skylines history, Industry becomes a larger and more meaningful part of the game with this expansion. Players can customize their industrial areas with supply chains for the four different resource types and unique factories. Well managed industry areas will level up and become more efficient. Aside from production chains, there is a new city service for handling mail and the cargo airport eases import and export of factory goods. There are FIVE new maps, new policies, new city services, new buildings (including resource extractors, manufacturers, warehouses and unique factories) and more.
    Key Features:
    - MAKE IT HAPPEN
    Follow your products from harvesting to processing, storage and production, then transport them to commercial zones or export to other cities.
    - CAPTAIN YOUR OWN INDUSTRIES
    Define an area with the industry area tool and place highly specialized industrial buildings to build and manage the production chain from raw material extraction up to final end product. Industry Areas are divided into four types based on the natural resource they are processing: Farming, Forest, Ore and Oil. These areas can level up upon reaching productions goals and staffing requirements.
    - BUILD IT UP, BUTTERCUP
    New industrial buildings include Extractors, Warehouse Facilities, Processing and Auxiliary Buildings, Industrial Props and Roads. Unique Factories, such as Food, Toy, Furniture, Car and Electronics produce luxury products, and require a large number of workers, water and electricity as well as input from your industries.
    - SHIP IT
    Manage traffic and logistics with industrial warehouses and the use of the new Cargo Services including a cargo airport.
    GO POSTAL
    Boost your citizens’ well-being with mail delivery and collection services. Post sorting facilities handle mail between outside connections and the post offices, and new Post Van and Truck vehicles enable the carriage.
    - WONK HARD
    Three new Industry Policies and four City-wide Policies, including Workers’ Union, Sorting, Tolls, Wi-Fi, Logistics, Work Safety and Automation.

      Hey Biffa, love your content. Such a relaxing videos after hard day of work.
      I have a city that is in desperate need of saving. It's a project I started a long time ago and it ended up growing into a city covering 9 square km and pop of 170k. Thanks to your videos I've gone into traffic manager and got the traffic to above 55% and it's not really a nightmare (I think), but something is seriously wrong. Dead people, trash are piling up and business is not getting goods and industry is not getting raw materials, the population is plummeting. I have infinite money on, but kept it making profit as a personal rule.
      I would hugely appreciate if you could take a look and maybe I (and others) could learn a thing or two about huge cities and connections.

      Tips for traffic management:
      - Get Traffic Manager President Edition (best mod ever for traffic)
      - Get network extensions 2 (more roads)
      - Build multiple highways that go straight through the city. Make lots of ways on and off of highway
      - Have lots of main roads for heavier traffic (try to make sure there’s never a spot more than 5 blocks away from a main road in the city)
      - make roads be long. When roads are longer, people can drive straight for longer and not have to slow down and turn.
      - Have good public transport
      Hopefully I helped some people to get even better traffic! This is some stuff I’ve picked up with my 300 hours played :)

I don't know how confident I'd be trying to get around 3+ lanes, but in the 1- and 2-lane versions near me I just drive through them aggressively and hope the drivers around me figure it out. That you don't have to come to a complete stop when there are over 2 car-lengths of space to slip into. That you DO. NOT. STOP. on the inside!

    The US really needs to adopt the Euro "priority road" concept and signage. I suspect most US players don't get the concept until it's explained to them, or they've passed the International Driving written test (I did, US Army, Germany, 91-93)

      The few roundabouts we have in the US (significantly more now than 20 years ago, but still not a ton) all have signs in front saying "Yield to traffic in the roundabout". So the idea is the roundabout gets priority, but we don't have the nice buttered toast (yellow diamond) signs that Europe has.

      Here in Texas, we have a shopping center that was going for a European (specifically Italian) aesthetic. They put a roundabout at the parking lot intersection right off the freeway access road (feeder road). They must have had a lot of accidents there because they soon installed speed bumps at all the entrances, which then were upgraded to speed humps. Lastly, they installed stop signs at all four entrances. So we have a roundabout that you have to go over a speed hump before stopping at the stop sign, then going around. Classy.

    One problem I think I have is that I have horror vacui, and I want every square of the city to be used, so keeping roundabouts clear would have never occurred to me.

    @Biffa, as to your comment on roundabouts. About a little over a year ago they changed the main road here from 2 lanes each direction (4 lanes in total) to one way each direction. Aside that they changed the 4 intersections with roundabouts. They work great, sure one has to slow down but the overall flow is a lot better and in the end I am much quicker to and from my work not having to wait for the traffic-lights that used to occupy the luckily gone intersections. Even for the cyclists and pedestrians the flow is much better. As for this video city fix; I up till now have not considered using the lane restrictions that much within the city itself, but it seems to do miracles here. Always fun and useful to watch your videos. :)

  • @CarinaCoffee
    @CarinaCoffee Před 4 lety +1

    25:14 round-abouts are usually put in to keep traffic moving more smoothly. The road that was connecting the town I grew up in with the neighbouring town used to have a massive traffic light at the entrance to the neighbouring town and considering there was an A-road on and off ramp right between our towns meant there was always a massive amount of traffic, even with other sliproads nearby. A decade ago they put in a massive round-about (one that fits lorries and busses) where the traffic lights used to be and a few down the road that lead to an industrial area and the neighbouring town also put in round-abouts on their main road inside the town (our town did that a couple years prior) and traffic has been sooooo much better ever since! And as long as people aren't idiots and indicate only when they actually exit the round-about I've found you can pass through pretty quickly. I definitely have spend way more time waiting at busy intersections with traffic lights than I have at round-abouts.

    Biffa, the only thing about adding the roundabouts everywhere is that it's not entirely realistic since you're demolishing buildings for each roundabout you're making. Where there is the space, it obviously makes sense to do so, but in an area that's already built up, it might make more sense to have some timed traffic lights.

As soon as I put speed limits on all non highway-roads the highways (and public transport) got a lot more use and my traffic bumped from thirty-ish to the upper seventy percent.
