The 10x10 grid is fun and easy enough to break strategically. Removing one road turns it into 10x20, upgrading one road to a tram track keeps it walkable and the overall look. The smaller, vanilla, elementary & high schools can be inset using a one way road to create a ‘drop off’ area, leaving one tile perimeter for paths or landscape.

you could just turn the streets around the central roundabout into one-way streets and create a "square"-about. This way you can delete the roundabout streets in the middle and make full use of the space in the middle without the roundabout streets :D

@YannikBffnu 2 года назад

I pretty like the look of this roundabout. It feels a little different from those normal blocks. But Biffa started to reduce traffic attractiveness (maybe not in the game, but in RL) by changing the roads to those parking lots. Maybe you can go on with this idea. The roundabout could be a historic artefact and you could make a whole pedestrian „roundabout“ by banning all cars, or reduce the speed limits to a minimum

With 10x10 superblocks you can do a central 4x4 with services/commercial/transit hubs/parks and so on. That might look really good aswell, if done right. Basically have Standard Services in each 5x5 Center and then a Park like this in the center 2x2 with commercial/high density residential/offices around that in a 4x4 with public Transit going through diagonaly and high walkabillity.

I have a suggestion for the name of the park, *Theodore Dawes Park;* and for the roundabout within, *Theodore Dawes Circle.* RL backstory: in Alabama on the I-10 there is a exit for the towns of Theodore and Dawes. The green exit signs call out the towns as "Theodore / Dawes" and I always think that's the name of a real person when I pass by. The in-game universe backstory is that he was one of the founders of Spring Hills or of the whole city, hopefully named *Great Biffington* as I suggested last episode. 😉

@MrLlamatastic 2 года назад

There's just one little path connection you probably meant to do but missed: on the one that's going from the tram stop to the dump, you might want one going sideways in the middle so that people can go to work after getting off the tram.

If the goal is being realistic like the British city, no American city has proper public transportation besides commuter trains in their suburbs. There might be a few bus lines on the main street,but that's all. Trams are usually used in medium sized cities like San Diego, in the city center. Also with the use of roundabouts,of course they exist, but realistically if you feel like a junction needs a roundabout that's a huge cross junction with traffic lights in America. Also there are a lot more Stop signs than Yield signs, but I'm not sure how the game AI will handle that.

@landonsandor591 2 года назад

13:31 I agree with another user that you should use the square as a roundabout/rotary instead of putting in a circular one. This way, you can actually put things in that square; elderly housing, a huge park, what have you. Perhaps you have the "squareabout" with roads that go in, but are only for parking in places if you throw businesses in there or whatever, but NOT as pass through roads. it would have been an awesome place for multiple schools and parks to be in a central location for your supergrid. 20:00 adding in lines for clarity lol Yeah, in the US, we like to THINK we would do that, but in lots of places, the lines have been worn off for so long it's like they never existed. I'm not laughing at you Biffa, but how my own country does things. BTW, when you talk about trams, all I EVER think of are those trams from places like Atlantic City in New Jersey where you have the automated speaker system repeating "please watch out for the tram car". The ones that drive on the boardwalks. Love this video and your design flair.

@mrhedgebull1658 2 года назад

32:12 Why not take the roundabout out, use the whole space for the park and make the road around the outside a square-about.

@JMWZ_E 2 года назад

I truly like the introduction of the tram so early in the game and with your paths to the tram stops you are doing a lot to support walkable access. But 22:49 you have these two stops on the collector road - and as side street connections from the collector are spread out due to road hierarchy those stops are quite far away from the next intersection. Adding pedestrian crossing with Node Controller plus paths into the grid could help - or just additional side streets. Another option: trams do not need to follow the collectors. Transit can have own main routes parallel to collectors. If you move the tram one road parallel into the grid and change some of the road segments along the route to tram-only, individual traffic routes that do not start or end there will avoid the side street.

@zamboughnuts 2 года назад

At 33:00 - In a lot of older towns in the US, particularly rural New England towns, you could see a "town square" or "town green" in the middle of an area like that. It would have a park in the middle, but rather than a roundabout, the roads around the outside would all be one-way roads making, basically, a square-a-bout. They often might have a small stage or something, and during the summer there'd be things like farmer's markets, or small concerts, on the green.

It feels like 80% of suburban US parks are named "City Park", "Veterans Park", "Memorial Park", after some fraternal organization ("Lions Park", "Shriners Park"), after a geologic feature view ("Riverview Park", "Highview Park") or some localish notable, in roughly the order of dominant specificity. Consequently, the first one with the roundabout should probably be "Ci-Tea Park".

I believe up here in New England (where we even call them rotaries just to be even more confusing), there's a state where the law is that cars IN the roundabout are supposed to give way to those entering, which defeats the entire purpose of the whole thing! I tried to look it up and couldn't find any confirmation, but I did find a 27 year old article talking about how Massachusetts (who had the first roundabout built in the US back in 1939) was trying to get rid of them because of how many accidents happen in them due to people refusing to yield.

@turtleofthemoon 2 года назад

@@Khotetsu Lol they must have given up on that because I live in Boston and the suburban area I drive through to get to the grocery store has like five. But definitely a lot of people can't be bothered to yield or be in the correct lane for where they want to go, and a lot of the ones I drive through don't have actual lane lines so it's even more of a free-for-all.

At 38:26 you are zooned out a little bit. and the top right area you have a very similar road style, that is asymmetrical, 2/1 that tou can use for the intersection segment. It will match the area also. 39:15, maybe you have to upgrade both sides of the intersection to have the rounded lines? You also don't need the power cables (I don't THINK) around the outside since you have the industrial the whole length of the area.

Great opportunity Biffa to add a linear park run around the perimeter of your city grid, putting say a three tile wide, multi-block long tree lined bike path sandwiching a walking path and perhaps even the tram line or something like it running in the middle, going around all the core major residential blocks, dividing them from industrial sectors with a greenbelt, demarcating each of the zones with the space to upgrade within each district. It's just a suggestion of organization, but I rarely see builders now really taking the time to plot and design an area for a specific building type, so as you upgrade you're not platting more road network beyond main roads and walking paths, but rather filling in space you've already drawn out for those modules to be placed. Is that making any sense? Anyways, A lot of the older builders I've seen on this game like strictoaster and fluxtrance were really meticulous about such details and if you look them up their channels are absolutely amazing!

I bet the American people saying in their squeaky high pitched voice are like ‘yeh Biffa is using girded layout’, which are statically more dangerous than roundabouts 🤣

There is a hydro dam to the NE with power lines right across the river. When using Transportation manager if you don’t hit the “use specific configuration for this line” every line will be modified at once.

25 MPH is probably the most common speed limit in the US. It's very rare to find one lower on a public street, and also fairly rare to see a limit higher than that on side streets with no lane markings. In fact, you will often see a sign when entering a city or town that says something like, "SPEED LIMIT 25 UNLESS OTHERWISE POSTED." A 40 mph limit in a neighborhood like the one you're building would make it a death zone for pedestrians, especially children. Most people over the age of 20 probably wouldn't drive much over 30 mph on roads like these regardless of the limit, if one was actually posted at all.

A Roundabout that doesn't follow the rules of one is called a Traffic Circle.

lovely video, although American themed industrial, commercial, services, cars and schools would be nice :), as well as suburbs with luxurious houses that look alike (like in the movies). also tall American skyscrapers would be really cool

For the highway roundabout, especially after you squared up the nodes, it looks like it's built for the outer lane of each oncoming road to be a right turn bypass of the roundabout while the left lane would continue on to other routes. But I'm guessing this would require dedicated lane control for it to actually function this way.

Biffa, don't forget to get a lot of the flowery paths and the parking which are decorated like parks that are small or odd shapes. I find that 2x4, 2x6, 2x8 parking is really useful to fill spaces, and there are some really good looking ones that aren't just boring asphalt spaces.

I love trams they remind me of my time living in San Francisco many years ago

@nathanrux5229 2 года назад

This town feels like a midwestern town (except no midwestern town would have a tram, but hey), so the high school is missing something...an High School American Football stadium (I know there is one on the workshop as I use it in my builds). An American high school is rarely without one. Oh, and in the US, most residential streets have a 25 mph speed limit.

Biffa and his roundabouts. :-) Biffa - you generally won't find roundabouts in small town USA. You'll find them in suburbs, and even then they aren't true roundabouts in many cases. In rural areas/small towns, they're pretty rare. You'll more likely find a "town square" (a square "roundabout") around a county courthouse. Not a knock, just a funny observation. Look forward to the remaining series!

@landonsandor591 2 года назад

So, it depends on what you consider a roundabout/rotary, and what you consider "small town usa". Augusta Maine (population, 18,000) has 3 rotaries in it; 1 off of one of the major highways (I 95 where it runs into RT 3), and 2 straddling a bridge through town (surrounding Memorial Bridge in Augusta Maine). Also, while in no way, shape, or form, is Philadelphia Pennsylvania a small town, they have 2 intersecting traffic circles in it (in what's considered "Center City" Philadelphia). If you care to look, it's called "Eakins Oval" in Philadelphia PA, which actually connects to another rotary type thing around the art museum. It truly looks like a figure 8. Biffa's rotaries are also labelled/used a LOT better than that hot mess lol

hey biffa in some american citys there is a law witch states that half of the land allocated to a community service area must be a parking space if you have a 5000 sqr ft school the 2500 sqr feet of that must be parking lots

@bono6667 2 года назад

biffa, for the bit where you have un aligned squares if you upgrade/change the road after you have flattened it it will sort the unalignment out.

At the start of the video in the intro, it got me into fits of laughter when he said, “Tram deepoe” because it was American!

@jentehvand4794 2 года назад

Given that it's US based map, rather than tea, maybe coffee based names would be more fitting? Also, the original commercial zone you created is really long- anyone using the tram for those has a really long way to walk before they can cross the street. To that end, adding some crossings and some paths to the back service road behind would make the shops more accessible from all directions.

@S4B3R117 2 года назад

For the center park I'd probably just make a nice square-about around the edges and just ditch the roundabout completely, would give you a lot more space to work with

@plip13 2 года назад

It's America !! You must have parkings !! And if it's possible, it will be super super cool to have Paris in one of the neighbourhood. With the "tour Eiffel", with Haussmann buildings and luxury shops and the river Seine with its "bateaux Mouche" and "Maurice's columns" and "Wallace's fountains" and why not Casinos hidden in the buildings... what do you think of it ?
