Engitopia returns! We're checking out Cities Skylines 2 (City Skyline 2) today, and what better way to do it than to limit our city to a single tile, once we've learned the game a bit more we'll come back and see if we can improve our city building skills!

You should build a hexagon based neighbourhood. Not just because hexagons are the bestagons, but also because of traffic efficiencies

@michaelplowman8674 6 месяцев назад

I just thought about a hexagonal neighborhood with a roundabout in the very center and then the blocks being otherwise the 2nd strongest shape of equilateral triangles. Only thing that could make it better is bridges!

I prefer the more educational approach. It's a good balance to your humor! While it's funny, the constant "strongest shape" sometimes was too much so this is a good balance.

2:00 there was a road in a neighboring town where an 80 mph highway became the main street... where an elementary school was placed. Fun little law in my area, cars cannot go more than 25 mph in proximity to a school. Meaning you had to slow down by 55 mph immediately. There were no warning signs, however there WAS a mountain between you and the town, so you got ZERO warning of this decrease. You round a huge bend and boom. You're going 55 miles over the speed limit in a school zone. It made the cops quite happy, cause they got to ticket farm there.

@Red-Tower 6 месяцев назад

It's a somewhat more recent consideration, especially when thinking about long-distance travel like truckers. Driving for hours on end on long straight roads gets incredibly boring and either people start to get distracted/mind wandering to other things or they get tired and start drifting off to sleep. Obviously either of those things happening while hauling these big freight trucks is very bad and has caused a lot of accidents, so road planners have started making a greater effort to find ways they can help prevent that from happening.
