Does Cities Skylines have some sort of dual highway tool?
>>
is there a convenient mod pack around to build an authentic japanese city? for either SC4 or cities: skylines?
including everything like residential zones, commercial zones, infrastucture buildings, roads, overhead cables, elevated train tracks, trains, double-decker highways, canals, flood walls and so on? i know the mods are out there but it seems like complete collections are either non-existant or full of trash which causes the game to crash
>>
>>125980218
No
>>
>>125980539
If you want something legit you will have to do it by yourself, the landmarks and stations are so easy to find, but when it comes to the simple houses, the environment and the nature, I never found something good yet. I'm talking abound Sim City 4.
>>
>>125980630
can one be made?

>>125981768
thanks but i dont think its a dual highway now is it?
>>
>>125982307
No, it isn't. But the tool exists, which is the question I answered here >>125981768
>>
>>125985195
no you are wrong you cant make dual highways, yours are still single highways, but wider. not dual.

Yes?

I tried Skylines, but the game is extremely forgiving. I gave zero fuck aside from keeping industry and powerplants away from houses and people were still tweeting about living in paradise?

How to make it challenging to be loved mayor?
>>
Is anybody else having issues where the game can't load a city? It just loads forever?
>>
>>126016532
Play another game. C:S is a shit city building.
>>
>>126016786
no idea, maybe you have to many assets and the game can't load them all fast enough?
>>
>>126017564
Hmm, I'll try disabling a bunch then.

>I dunno mate, the scale of things seems so far off. I find the factories to be way too small. A factory manufacturing plant could easily employ hundreds, if not thousands of people and take up acres and acres and acres. Instead, we get 10mx10m pollution machines that employ like 10 people.

>Factories should be sprawling and have dedicated rail yards to bring in raw materials and export finished product. (pic related is a map of the Tesla plant in California. It employs >3,000 workers.) One manufacturing plant should be able to sustain a small town, economically. There should be small, local industry that doesn't produce insane amounts of pollution. These are your bakeries, warehouses, etc.

Yeah you hit the nail on the head here, now I understand more about why the aesthetic/art style and scale of C:S is so off-putting to me.

I guess I'll pirate Cities XXL and give that a go if I want more realistic colors and scales and buildings. And all those glorious modern looking shiny towers.

So how many people live in your biggest cities?

Hi friends, is there a mod that forces things to be bridged or stay leveled when going over some dip in the terrain? Trying to make a simple overpass look nice and I can't cause it raises the land when I don't want it to.

Most of the bad rep comes from Anno 2070's shit Unisoft always online nonsense. That and it's a game about maximizing supply chains first and city building second. I like it thought.

So like 4chan?

Not bad I just hate all the samey buildings and how the devs didnt even bother to change their height for more variety from building to building
>>
Ok so for someone who hasn't played a city builder in like a decade what game should I be playing?

I found my PC disks for Sim City 4 but a friend also gifted me Cities Skylines. And apparently there are even more fucking games somehow.
>>
so has CO basically abandoned CS now?
