    Usually a lighthouse built near a city has a window directed only to the sea, and a solid part to preevent the light hitting the buildings in the city. You should add a screen to the lighthouse to avoid the light hitting the buildings in the upper city.

      I prefer the effect of the led, I'm suggesting to change the design for sake of realism. A lighthouse in that location doesn't have a 360 degree windows, because the beam of light bothers the city

    @MrKipchak Před 2 měsíci +83

    I think you should consider including more features of forest dynamics into your forested areas like around the moutain and on the new hill to help break the monotony of only green trees.
    Maybe you recreate some dead trees standing without leaves or with brown leaves, broken trees that have fallen on the ground or on top of other trees that generate canopy openings, with dead wood on the ground with mushrooms decomposing it and faster growing vegetation due to sudden light availabilty.
    That would be a very realistic way to depict the forests around your City and would showcase natural processes happening all the time in forests!

  • @user-py3mv5qv7b
    @user-py3mv5qv7b Před 2 měsíci +3

    Somehow this mountain near the new tunnel looks strange. I am talking about the part between the tunnel and the tracks that go in pairs to the airport. This part of the mountain looks a little artificial, because it cuts off and turns too conveniently in front of these tracks. So it can be assumed that someone cut a part of the mountain in order to lay these tracks, but in this case there must be some kind of structure that will prevent soil and stones from sliding onto the rails. Because the physics of a mountain is a pyramid: the higher the mountain, the wider its base to hold the mass. Otherwise, landslides will begin at the place where the almost vertical part was cut, because there is no support for the soil.

    The street lights have me thinking: if you can program individual homes so lights will go on and off during the night cycle (representing people going to bed or to the bathroom at night) that'd look awesome and give you the option to play with different lighting configurations (such as mostly just street lights vs street lights and building lights) during parts of the day.

    I absolutely love this series and your channel. Big congrats for your success and skill.
    I wanted to make a suggestion for whenever you connect the train tracks between the city and the wild west.
    If you made a tunnel, you could make the city side modern as with the other ones, and then gradually change the aesthetic to something fitting the wold west exhibit. Then inside the tunnel / covered area, you could have a few track switches programmed so that when a modern city train comes in, it stays on the city track and an old locomotive version of it gets released into the wild west exhibit. This could be done smoothly by measuring the time it would take the train to appear on the other side of the tunnel, then the time it would take for the swapped train to appear and programming a delay between arrival and departure with the length of the difference between those.
    I think it would really help the immersion.
    As always looking forward to new updates.
    Take care

    Surely the light house should be lighting up the sea area. 🤔. How about using blue LEDs to give it a more night time vibe. Blank off the light to rear to avoid lighting the city up, and angle down/place at top as before to avoid lighting up western. Really fantastic build, can’t wait to see more.

    idea: train tracks through the mountain connecting wild west and the city. On one end there is a modern train, and on the other it comes out as the old steam powered train. Program it so it looks seamless between the environments
