Wheatyyyy, how about you make provisions for ferries? And i think it would be fabulous if there was a pedestrian path between Lindon and McDry over Cypress street
I remember CPP and Biffa saying that the best tax rate after the Economy 2.0 update is around 12% or lower. That may be why there's always a need for office zoning but no demand for other types.
Didn’t know if you realized but Kersey Elementary School is still servicing Summit Hill and Kersey. So Summit Hill has 2 Elementary Schools when it really only needs 1.
Sam Bur’s channel suddenly died whilst he was more or less pretty successful with his uploads. Suddenly I found City Planer plays and after he showed his face, I was puzzled hence I remembered Sam Bur’s Q&A. So I looked it up and realised that City Planner Plays oldest videos got deleted too - as far as I am awear. I thought I was mistaken about the last fact, but I am a long term follower of both RU-vidrs and I know for the surest that City Planner Plays used Sam’s name and his surname too in several cities for districts and streets. He imitates not only his playstyle but also his voice and how to design the thumb nails. Sam never ever uploaded again nor did he comment on his videos or RU-vid. I googled him rather unsuccessfully and now I am worried. Sam used his real name. That’s so creepy. What if he is really some left behind corpse and nobody realized that City Planner plays used his identity, but got rid of him altogether. The best outcome would be that Sam lost his social pay because of the earnings on RU-vid and had debts. Maybe he lost his flat or didn’t have any money for an attorney left. I am so afraid - even that he could have taken his own life or was involved in a deadly accident. As I said, Sam Bur vanished without a trace. Does anybody know him personally or about his fate?
smoke less fam. Sam Bur and City Planner Plays sound nothing alike, for one. I liked Sam's videos too but sometimes people just don't thrive with youtube videos.
they didn't fix anything with the new economy patch, just disable external city services and you'll easily make a profit. Also focus your economy on computer chips and offices.
I would highly suggest that you check your electrical connections as according to the info view at 23:50, there's a little over 700 MW of power that's not being exported, which is costing you some extra income. I want to say that it's the connection you removed at 15:16 to make room for the revised train tracks, but that may only be part of it if that has anything to do with it at all.
@@WheatyWaffle I think all you'll need to do is rebuild the high voltage lines you deleted when adding that track. IIRC, you'll need to use Anarchy to cross over the tile border to get them connected.
@@WheatyWaffle All you should need to do is replace the high voltage towers that you destroyed; however, I think you used Anarchy to remove them, so you'll need to use that to remake the connection from your tiles to the outside lines.
Lower the taxes = more money because people are willing to pay fair taxes. Also higher building levels will pay more for taxes rather than lower building levels. Parks are a great thing to place to increase the building levels. This is all I've learnt through my playing time
You can use the 529 tile mod to re-buy tiles you need and get rid of tiles you don't need, so your tile upkeep is less. I believe City Planner Plays has a video about the tiles
Wheaty Waffle Wednesdays are definitely a thing now. The first two posts on a Wednesday I thought “Oh he’s just busy with life so these are prerecorded and posted.’ But 3 POSTS ON A WEDNESDAY?! That’s no fluke! Love your videos ♥️
@@WheatyWaffle I want to suggest something to you . Colossal order actually mentioned in their patch that anything about 12% tax will drive that demand down . So if you cross 12% the business will get abandoned
You might have gone a bit too crazy on all the highway exit and entrances they’re too close together. As for that first monster jumbo you could have just a Diverging Diamond Interchange (DDI) and avoided all those bridges or even a double roundabout interchange could have worked too. 😂
Hi ... so a few ideas from me. 46:52 usually you would first split the exit off the highway and then merge in the on-ramp. If you do the opposite, it would be quite dangerous in real life. 46:34 Before adding the last highway entrance, there are three ramps that basically only connect one side of the highway to the highway. Cars from/to the lower part of the screen (=North?) would need to u-turn. If you have an East-West-highway connected to a North-South-arterial road, consider that the highway connection should provide 8 options to turn: four right turns and four left turns. And in right-hand-side traffic, right turns are quite easy to build, the left turns are challenging - and maybe those should be built first, with easy right turns at the end of the build. 30:20 A cloverleaf junction might have been an option here, but those are known for "weaving problems". A solution would be, to separate the weaving areas - just like you do here with the two parallel on-lane-ramps below Lake Street (Amity Highway and one of two Garnet Highways), of which one was a bridge before underpassing the highway bridge and the other becomes a bridge afterwards, which provides the grade separation. And the Foggy Highway [again, name used twice in view] right turn off-ramp is a little bit space-consuming, taking away the chance to add a left-turn cloverleaf on-ramp ... the issue that will later be solved with a roundabout. 22:47 Good lane math here: 4 lanes, taking two lanes off, because of right turning and left turning traffic, which then separate. This 2+1+1 setup could be used for all sides of the highway connection on the arterial road as well as the highway: 4 minus 1 each for outgoing right and left turning traffic is branched off; 2 plus 1 each where incoming right and left turning traffic is merged back in. But even less powerful highway connections are an option if you build them quite frequently as you do in Lethe. Do not underestimate a diamond interchange or a SPUI. Especially, if the normal road networks of both sides of the highway become better connected like 24:27 ... although I would have preferred the connection of the neighbouring cul-de-sacs on the right of the screen, this would reroute more traffic from the highway-connection ...
Wheatyyyy, I'm cackling at the intersection! All the while I was wondering why is he going beneath the main highway instead of going above it. Regardless, love the little loop de loop that came out in the end. And the poor things at 28:50 they had just had their homes destroyed not too long ago hehe. The hack that you brought in at 36:34 , GENIUS!
@@WheatyWaffle Philly isn't that car centric what part of Philly are you from. Philly has smaller streets, transit in the forms of subway, buses and trams. Everything between Schuylkill River and Delaware River is not car centric
