14 Things to Make Your Life Easier ║ Workers and Resources: Soviet Republic 

A quick note on asphalt that I noticed, open to comment and critique: Because you cannot store asphalt, this can mean that bitumin, the oil refining byproduct used to make it, can build up very quickly. If allowed to fill completely, your refinery will stop producing both bitumin and fuel until the backlog is cleared. With that said though, bitumin generally sells for a pretty good price on the export market. So an easy and profitable way to clear the backlog in between bursts of road construction can be to set up a tanker train line to transport excess bitumin for export. If you find that your supplies are running low or you're gearing up for a big project, just send that train to the depot and have it wait for when you next need it. Bonus: When upgrading roads from gravel to pavement using your own natively produced materials, I've found it very useful to build temporary parallel dirt roads as a bypass to keep traffic flowing; it may be slow, but it's far better than having everything shut down because the trucks and buses can't get through.

Man I'd been trying to figure out how to mirror buildings for HOURS. Thank you so much.

Special thanks for the firefighting helicopters! Here's a trick for building long roads much more quickly. The roads are built starting from an end that is accessible and the process is painfully slow. What I do is build a dirt road alongside the new road, and connect it to the dirt road at regular intervals. This divides the new road into separate individually accessible segments that can be built concurrently. Construction speed is multiplied by the number of segments created, as long as the equipment (mostly bulldozers for a gravel road) is available in sufficient numbers. The dirt road can be deleted once the work is completed.

5:00 - For building on the grid, I would like to add that you can use F1 to toggle between No Grid, Grid, and Snap to Grid. So if you want a nice grid-based city, you can use grid snapping. You will see a magnet icon appearing over the "terrain grid" on the right hand side tooltip.

I think my gas hit the floor when I found out I could mirror buildings! Such a life saver, thank you so much for mentioning that!

I have hundreds of hours in this game and didn´t know you can mirror buildings with "T"... This will help me so much :-D

Very appreciated! These makes the learning curve much easier for new players

Great video. As a player returning after a couple of years for a new serious playthrough this helped tremendously. 1) Refreshed my memory on many things. 2) Brought me up to speed on some of the additions since i last played. 3) Despite 500+ hours played i actually learned a couple things that i never knew but i'm pretty sure were there all along, such as the signage on the front of buildings which i am sure i have seen in videos and screenshots right from the start (im probably going to spend an hour now putting signs on everything ive built so far lol). Besides the helpful info the production quality was very good, including the narration which was clear and also calmy enthusiastic instead of being forced, which i very much liked. Thanks for your efforts!

oh my....T for mirroring is genius. So glad it got added :D Curently not active but that will stick in my head for sure :) Thanks.

Fantastic video! Straight to the point and cohesive!

Thanks for sharing! Some good tips in here, plus I love seeing other people's republics.

Dude the mirror thingy is probably the best tip ive heard! Thanks for that!

The text was a great touch to add additional information. The size and font are perfect, IMHO.

This was great work, and much higher quality than the videos for WRSR that are currently popular. Very keen to see more videos from you.

thank you for making these videos - they are informative and helpful

I´ve got quite a bunch of hours in the game, but I learned a lot from you. Very nice video. I still call myself a noob. Thanks for uploading.

text in a video is a great thing, it helps clarify and remember. I think it quickly becomes necessary!

I didn't know about the naming feature. That's really cool!

thanks a lot i may have 300+ hours clocked on this game but i still have no idea what im doing this is gonna help a lot

Ive had this game since launch. Got a couple hundred hours in it. I’m restarting again because this video. Thanks comrade, tips appreciated.

13. was the one i didnt know, YOU GAVE ME WINDS MAN!!!

This is amazing, thank you so much.

Wow, so many new things, time to install W&R again. Thanks, useful info, I will stay for more :)

Thanks to your videos, i was able to understand the power connection and some important things to start building. This game is very complex and i'm amazed that we can change every aspect. Naming buildings! How cool is that? I didn't know it was possible till now. I started playing 2 days ago. And it's not easy at all. Playing on realitic mode is no joke, but it's fun!

after years ... this helps me a lot thx

I hope you continue with these videos. There's so many topics in this game that are not explained very well

This is amazing! I've been playing for a 2 years and still struggle with many things like the best way to organize a rail system and distribution network, how to create distribution lines, how different power cables and towers work, and so on. If you could make a video that includes how to best lay out and organize sewage and water + treatment infrastructure as well as rail distribution and traffic signals which were added in the latest update that would be great!

This is fantastic! Thanks!

i went through the tutorials 3 times and then started a new game and 10 minutes in it was such a mess as i couldnt tell what i was doing or needed to do first or anything! lol - so this is a useful video!

Like the Dwarf Fortress icon!

Excellent video!

OMG! I didnt know about T button, I really needed it! TNX!

Oh gosh the labelling one, I guess I accidentally did one like two years ago on a bus terminal filling it with the town's name, I thought it's a rare generated thing until now.

When you press N it also speeds up the crops growth which I think is a bug but so far nothing has been done about it. Also great video. I'm sure it'll help new players to struggle less.

Best! Great tips! Thanks mate!

I would love to see a cosmonaut challenge LP series on you Chanel. Keep up the good work sir/madam.

Some useful tips there, thanks!

pretty helpful, thx a lot! :)

Please please please start uploading gameplays! Your republic looks AMAZING :O

Great tips, thank you

Very good video!

Thank you Comrade!

Thank you. Liked and subscribed 🇦🇺

Nice video keep it up!

I noticed that whenever you press the N key to get rid of dirt, crops also grow an increment. So you can spam N to make them grow faster and get a harvest in 30 seconds :) I don't know If they patched it yet, but I never see anyone notice it.

Concerning the supply of workers to a power plant: cable cars are the most viable option not only for spacing, but for snow too. It's true they rely on power, but if the plant is distant from the city you will have terrible delays with buses... it's kinda an equal choice, personally I prefer cable cars, I start supplying with buses until the cable car circuit is well oiled.

WTG bro. New sub. Mahalo 🤙

Great tips. I always put 2 shitty houses near power plants though, even if i have to supply them with a small store and a heating plant, because it means guaranteed employees at hte power plants 24/7.

The things you think you know! Thanks!

1. The bus line set up for power plants never works fluently unless pretty close to a custom house. It is way better to plan ahead and support it with a bus stop to a city with worker surplus. 4. The way you "store" concrete and asphalt is by building a powder-cement silo attached to the concrete factory and a Tank for Bitumen attached to the asphalt plant.

You are a credit to peoples republics

Thanks a lot

Very good video

This came in handy

I have almost 500 hours of this game and still managed to learn something. Well done!

this is great

You can use snap-to grid.. that usually prevents the pesky wonky intersections

N, I believe, is a debug tool for passing time, or something like that, bc it also moves the growth progress of the fields forward

After 60 hours on the game I realized I still didn't know about some features like fire helis

This game seems complicated as hell, but I have never been prouder to be a citizen of the Soviet Union!

Man i fucking love u

верной дорогой идёте, товарищ. удачи в вашем построении коммунизма и светлого будущего. привет из бывшего СССР translation you are going the right way, comrade. good luck in building communism and a bright future. hello from the former USSR.

How do you curve the roads up the mountain? Is that a hot key?

Do one for Oil and Alluminium

10:59 N button also affect on farms and crops grow faster

i didnt even know you could connect helipads to fire stations...

Does it remove the 2km limit for parking search? If so, amazing! If not, a bit disappointing. However still a great game indeed.

playing this game since summer 2019,and still doesn't know how the F train signals works

I wonder why it is only stripes i can't see the video..

Thanks for the tips, what version is your game?

nice video... but having the game music playing in the background is very distracting and makes some parts hard to hear.

hey, you're Story Recapped!!

I am happy I knew all of them! I am officially a veteran!

Why the ai voice

"A nicer republic" I took that remark personally, my republic is ugly as sin and that's the way I likes it.

Wait you can mirror buildings!?

I tried finding this game but its no longer available on steam :(

Please turn off night on videos to youtube - difficult to see :(

your voice sounds like a text-to-speech dude

Хорошо что я знаю английский.

You can mirror buildings!?! I feel like a dumbass right now...

I thought I was good at this game. My cities looked good and produced enough. Im blown away at how ugly they are compared to this...

wait did i miss something, on #1? "...it used to be cable cars but ,we have a better option these days..." and then you don't tell the better option. EDIT: ok it is explained in #2

Dude, music is too loud, i can barely hear you

this sounds like AI voice, is it?

One more advice: better not get more than 50k population

thanks for sharing
