Cities Skylines Industries:
In one of the most in-depth expansions in Cities: Skylines history, Industry becomes a larger and more meaningful part of the game with this expansion. Players can customize their industrial areas with supply chains for the four different resource types and unique factories. Well managed industry areas will level up and become more efficient. Aside from production chains, there is a new city service for handling mail and the cargo airport eases import and export of factory goods. There are FIVE new maps, new policies, new city services, new buildings (including resource extractors, manufacturers, warehouses and unique factories) and more.
Key Features:
- MAKE IT HAPPEN
Follow your products from harvesting to processing, storage and production, then transport them to commercial zones or export to other cities.
- CAPTAIN YOUR OWN INDUSTRIES
Define an area with the industry area tool and place highly specialized industrial buildings to build and manage the production chain from raw material extraction up to final end product. Industry Areas are divided into four types based on the natural resource they are processing: Farming, Forest, Ore and Oil. These areas can level up upon reaching productions goals and staffing requirements.
- BUILD IT UP, BUTTERCUP
New industrial buildings include Extractors, Warehouse Facilities, Processing and Auxiliary Buildings, Industrial Props and Roads. Unique Factories, such as Food, Toy, Furniture, Car and Electronics produce luxury products, and require a large number of workers, water and electricity as well as input from your industries.
- GO POSTAL
Boost your citizens’ well-being with mail delivery and collection services. Post sorting facilities handle mail between outside connections and the post offices, and new Post Van and Truck vehicles enable the carriage.
- WONK HARD

As a Swindonian, I loved this! However, the middle roundabout is created by the connecting roads of the mini roundabouts, so you didn't need to create the larger inner one. Also, IRL, the 'road' that doesn't join to a roundabout is a left turn only. It's an exit for the football club car park, I never thought it was actually used, but it seems it is!

@nealjroberts4050 4 года назад

Bravo Biffa!!! To people whose brains have melted: it's essentially a large roundabout with each junction replaced by a small roundabout that connect to a reverse roundabout in the centre. There's a few in Britain, some with and some without the inner roundabout. The inner roundabout's function allows you to skip the exits you don't need which is great for a large roundabout with lots of exits. Another way to build it would have been to build the outer and inner roundabouts then connect the two with single 1way lanes at each junction before using moveit.

He should have built it with little arc of road one at a time instead of using the roundabout builder, and starting only with one line road at the beggining to get the shape right and only after upgrading the parts that needed an upgrade to two or three lanes.

@@ProGamingTime I think one of the reasons it was implemented was actually its relative cheapness. The tarmac and the central roundabout were already there before the magic roundabout came into existence (partially it is infilled canal, at a point where a canal bridge used to connect three of those roads, with the other two roads being originally the line of the actual canal itself). The first iteration of the magic roundabout merely reversed the direction of the central roundabout that was already there, and laid out the mini roundabouts using traffic cones, before they eventually stuck some white down for the mini roundabouts and did all the permanent lane markings etc.

I grew up in Hemel Hempstead, and spent a lot of time going around the magic roundabout. The thing that people need to keep in their minds is that it's not actually 6 roundabouts around one huge roundabout. It's actually six mini roundabouts one after the other, just in a circular layout. You can go around the centre in either direction. Honestly, Swindon gets all the attention, but I can promise you, Swindons magic roundabout is a total non-event compared to Hemel........which also has a river (The Gade) running through the middle of it!! Hemels is also on a larger scale than Swindons, which would probably make it easier to replicate in-game. Two lanes clockwise, two lanes anti-clockwise, stay on the inside (close to the main centre) if you want to keep going around in whatever direction. Move to the outside one mini roundabout before, to get you in the correct lane to depart the whole infernal affair!

Biffa, instead of thinking about this as 7 separate roundabouts, it might be easier to see it as 2 bigger roundabouts connected by 1 way roads between them. The outermost roundabout would follow a conventional direction while the innermost goes in the opposite direction. The 5 ‘smaller’ roundabouts are then just a pair of 1 way roads connecting the inner with the outer in an arc.

Hmm... someone's bound to make a 3, 4, 5 (this one), and maybe 6 way magic roundabout for the workshop now.

@JW-uz1ee 4 года назад

I knew this was going to go badly as soon as you made the innermost roundabout run anti-clockwise. That only works while driving on the left, if you are driving on the right, all roundabouts needed to go in the opposite direction. Changing the direction of all feeding roads rather than just changing the direction of the roundabouts was an, umm, interesting solution.

@SugarfreeYT 3 года назад

This was awesome, glad you got it to work, please use this again in other cities in future! It would be a shame not to!

@der_rechtsamwald 4 года назад

You build a magic roundabout for left-sided traffic and you use right-sided traffic. You need to change all the directions of the roundabouts

@himlyk 4 года назад

After watching this and studying the magic roundabout I feel like the best way to build it would be: 3 lane inner, 3 lane outer, add the fourth lane where needed, don't make a true 5 small roundabout just connect them with single lanes? I am really sad I stopped gaming, you make this game look such a blast, I'd love to play it. Always an enjoyable video when you mess or unmess a city

@stewvlogs5084 4 года назад

It works really well in the game great job of getting it right. I drove on the one in Colchester regularly. Really strange driving around the central roundabout in the opposite direction but it works and is a shorter route to your destination. Great video I enjoyed it 👍

@gamesandstuff127 4 года назад

Could you have set you two roundabouts to start with (one inside the other), and then placed the 5 small roundabouts between them?

@RobBCactive 4 года назад

The actual central circle is just formed from the inner entry/exit of the mini-roundabouts with some short link road to join them Driving around it, you constantly enter mini-roundabouts taking the first exit.

was so hard not to comment "but you missed this one!" "but since it goes the other way around you should..." but of course he fixed it all!

@JustaGuy_Gaming 4 года назад

Seems like to make it work better in the game you just need to make things a bit bigger. One of the main problems seems to be trucks are nearly bigger than the mini round about, and they block pretty much all the entrances and exits while on them. Bigger small round about, and maybe a bigger circle over all would probably fix a lot of the problems. For right hand drive roads you could also probably reverse all the circles directions and it might work better.

@stevebailey805 2 года назад

Biffa, you made the magic roundabout far more complicated than it really is. Just put five 3-road mini roundabouts down in a circle - do that a long way apart if it makes it easier to see. Then connect the "external roads" to where-ever. Then connect the inner-most roads in a (right side of road driving) clockwise loop using one-way roads and connect the outermost roads in a counterclockwise loop again with one way roads. In Swindon, each "one way road" is three lanes. Then move the mini roundabouts so that they virtually touch each other. Job done. (Don't add any extra bypass roads, it will only mess the magic up.)

@mementomori5580 4 года назад

The biggest Problem with this Roundabout is that it's not connected probably. The smaller roundabouts on the outside shouldn't have a complete circle on it's own. The inner most street should be removed because the big roundabout in the middle takes that place. So you probably have to build it by hand and can't just build 5 small roundabouts around and then connect them up if you want the actual magic roundabout.

@VeeLogi 4 года назад

This thing is just ridiculous :D I think you did great recreating this freak of nature! And amazed how well it works!

@LeeSmith-cf1vo 4 года назад

15:23 - or you could have just swapped all clockwise roads for anti-clockwise and vv... Also, I'm pretty sure your centre roundabout is all wrong. On the real thing it isn't continuous like that.

@RobBCactive 4 года назад

Exactly, the mini-roundabouts dominate, the contra-flow centre is more like entry/exit stub roads for each mini-roundabout. With so many roads meeting at one point, a conventional large roundabout would need traffic lights and lane management as it simply wouldn't flow well as flows tend to cross in streams at speed, reducing effective road space to vehicles wishing to enter.

@ryanmitcham5522 4 года назад

To everybody who always says this every time this roundabout is discussed, in the real world you don't get the overhead view that makes it look so complicated. Driving it on the ground you just treat each mini roundabout like you would treat any other mini roundabout and it's fine. It's certainly not a monstrosity - it's bloody brilliant. It's only the ignorant who make negative comments about it.

@SapioiT 4 года назад

It's a normal roundabout with a reversed-direction roundabout in the middle of it. For left-side-traffic it's anticlockwise inside clockwise, and for right-side-traffic it's clockwise inside anticlockwise. In your left-side-driving image, you have a bypass to the left, and then you go into a roundabout from which you can turn around in the same direction you came, or get into the inner roundabout, from which you would get to one more outer mini-roundabout to get to the exit you want. Also, the smaller roundabouts are actually connected to the bigger roundabout through a single node. Or an inner roundabout going one way, an outer roundabout going the other way, and smaller roundabouts made by having pairs of roads connected to the same two nodes, one node on the inner and one node on the outer roundabout. Yours is not working as efficient as it could because you have two points of contact between the inner and outer roundabouts. Honestly, you could make a 4, 6 and a 8 mini-roundabouts magic-roundabout assets, and just slap them to fix the traffic in other people's cities. Too bad there is no way to save the specific Traffic Manager settings of the road into an asset (or at least wasn't last time I checked).
