If you go into your Realistic Population settings, you will find that schools automatically have an option to be adjusted to realistic population instead of the box standard limits that the creators have assigned to it. Turn it off and it will improve your capacity on all your school buildings.

Hey Biffa, small farming explanation. A combine harvester drops straw behind it and the grain goes out through the pipe into a trailer, so no bales there. The straw is then at a later date put into neat rows using a windrower, after that the rows are picked up and baled by a baler. Hope this helps in making your farm realistic! The plastic bales are filled with grass to make silage (fermented grass), to feed to animals during the winter. So for a grain field you just want the unwrapped yellow bales!

@onlythehutch6559 2 года назад

The combine leaves the rows of straw behind it for baling as you don’t need a windrower for grain but the combine could as be spreading the straw out in this case you don’t bale it so no bales should be placed. Windrowers are only used I for grass to sweep the grass up left my the mowers into rows

A few things for consideration with the farm from an old farm boy... - Definitely need a farming windmill. - Cotton uses ridiculous amounts of water to grow, about 10,000 litres per 1kg of cotton, plus the UK weather isn't optimal for cotton farming. I would either change it or if you are set on keeping it, from a realism perspective, you would want to add some water harvesting ponds & a few irrigation ditches. Sadly no pivot irrigators or cool animated farm dogs in the workshop. - Usually a place to buy farming machinery would be more on the main road entering the country town vs the side of a farm as well. Maximum amount of visibility if farmers have to go into town for necessities etc which translates into more sales :-) If Paradox ever does come out with a Cities Skylines 2, they may owe it to your awesome vids. Maybe we should be using a hashtag or something to get their attention across all kinds of social platforms... :-)

Area 2 or 3 would probably fit a Uni better than area 1, good examples of uk Uni’s built into suburb-ey areas are the 2 Nottingham Universities (University of Nottingham & Nottingham Trent University) with UoN main campus having a good mix of green space & suburb areas and NTU Clifton campus being a good example of a modern uni campus in the suburbs

@jayuk672 2 года назад

i agree and random footpaths through the fields, i have done many walks in the UK when i end up just randomly walking through a field full of crops ,farmers have to maintain these paths its the law , also fields are not so often surrounded by trees , you see more fields with hedgerows or stone walls .

9:01 - temporarily delete the road, then it should show you the blue arrows that designates where road access needs to be. Remove relevant trees, replace road. 9:57 - I may be wrong, but I think that green trailer next to the green tractor, belongs to the green tractor. The other three next to it also look like they would go with it. (16:47 - never mind, you already know.) 20:27 - City Planner would be so proud of you.

@yellowbird8690 2 года назад

The problem with your train; looking at 31:36 the cornering road on the right is a little too close to the track. The game is maybe trying to make half a level crossing there, and so freaking out the routing thingy. Go with area #3. Create a riverside area and maybe call it Blightea-on-Trikkle.

@Chee7sAEpp 2 года назад

Suggestion: plonk a huge tree or two in the middle of the wheat fields. Gives it a more rural look imo. Also a "fence" or broken stone wall to fence some of the fields off Edit: some small camps of trees on the roadside where a farmer hides his tractors and tools

@AceWolf2009 2 года назад

Some spots of woods in the middle of fields would give it a better look. But not just for hiding equipment. Farmers Gere use woods to give Deer and other animals a place to hide and populate, etc and help during hunting season.. Though, that is in the U.S. idk anything about the Uk, which I get the feeling is the look Biffa is going for with this build..

I think Area #2 makes sense for the Uni. They’d want to be near the richer families to attract those who can afford the tuition fees (seeing as this is an English town I’m guessing, as opposed to Scotland, so tuition fees apply). Area #3 being waterside would be highly desirable so I think property companies and businesses/tourism would battle to get that for themselves.

@Axel-mc5wf 2 года назад

The bales you are talking about are made of straw that the combine places in a swath behind itself. Then you pick it up with a baler. The thing you have done now unloading grain into a wagoon are correct. You could always watch some farming simulator if you want to know more

@pixzichix 2 года назад

I like area 2. Its centralised but far enough away to not effect the main centre of town. Ideally you need ditches around your fields. Farmers would often make drainage channels into them so fields don't hold water which results in a damaged harvest. Never heard anyone call them Weetabix's, we use to play on them as kids. Would be nice to see sheep farms spotted about and cows and such near the farm sheds. Sheep are used to eat up stalks and left over crops so they would often be dotted about between other fields. Loving the farm area so much though :).

@Sage2D2 2 года назад

@randomonkey 2 года назад

You should pepper some trees in the middle of the crop fields, they always seem to just work around them rather than chopping them down and having the fields completely perfect.

@sherrisville 2 года назад

Great build Biffa. Loving the details. Some of the farm roads might look nice if the trees were moved back a bit to leave space to plop some grass and dry stone walls or barbed wire fences. Hope there will be a public footpath through the farm land from the transport hub area :)

@thatperson6818 2 года назад

You should try and make a small campsite area near the farm as many farms rent fields out for tents and caravans in the summer! Also- You called the Primary schools elementary schools, which is something they would never be called in the Uk. If you want variety you could try calling some of them first schools or middle schools!

The wrapped bales are silage bales, and you wouldn't find them in a wheat field. A wheat field could be seen full of unwrapped straw bales, but not the wrapped ones. And they don't come out of a harvester, so yeah, if your going to have bales, there definitely needs to be a baler somewhere. VL = Very Large?

Area 2 for the uni the park in front of it will look great I think. 2 things about the farm area. as you said your not a farmer (me neither my village is surrounded by them) could you please remove the haybales out of the wheat fields. those bales are just grass. and as a Dutch native I love those Dutch fields (the correct name for them is tulip fields tho) and at least for the farm area you could use those american wooden electricity poles (the ones OverchargedEgg uses) I think you can get a way with it.

@richardlanglois172 2 года назад

Hi Biffa. The XL and XXL farms etc are not "terrain-conforming," per se; rather they're a plane, arranged along the z-axis of the four points of the field. Using the Network Multitool to "straighten out" the declination of the roads, and then the smoothy-smoothy tool should help align the ground to the plane of the field. Beautiful detailing. I'm never able to do detailing really, and it's so amazing watching you do it.

The tricky part about putting in a university is that it needs 36,000 pop. You're at 16,000 now, so you need to more than double. As such, people will probably have moved into most of the areas you've highlighted before you can build.

@timbatist8326 2 года назад

I think Area 1 could be used for the University. It can be connected using trains and other public transport.

Ideal farm name should be Garway Estate Farm or Garway Farmstead. These are not only nice British-sounding names, but Garway happens to be the surname of the man who first sold tea in the UK - Thomas Garway in 1657, who sold the beverage for the first time that year in their London coffeehouse. Interesting fact for anyone who reads this: he had to make a pamphlet to explain the new beverage he was selling (imagine how that must have been, before people accepted a cuppa as something to enjoy XD)

@cryhavikk 2 года назад

I'm watching this about two weeks late but, the bales wrapped in white are usually silage. Silage comes from green fields (usually just tall grass) so it wouldn't be in a brown field. Unless you wanna say it's a late harvest, you can certainly still use it after it's browned you'd just have to use it almost immediately instead of storing it in a silo.

@EarlZetland 2 года назад

Loving this series so much. Suggestion for the name of the farm - go dangerously British, and name it after one of the farms in the Archers (Grange Farm, Bridge Farm?).

I recommend area 3 for the university. Plus you can build a rich neighbourhood next to the university using Georgian terrace houses. And for the high school and the elementary school, you can use a posh or old looking building. Also posh schools have bigger school grounds with more facilities such as football, basketball, tennis and more. Edit: you can also expand the high street commercial/town centre to include British style malls or department stores.

@jasonh8753 2 года назад

Bales come from either cotton, or from harvesting grass/straw not wheat. Wheat gives you the grain (what goes in the wagons) and plant material which is usually just littered back on the ground for composting back into the soil.

@derbygaz 2 года назад

Just a quick comment about the schools Biffa, the terms used are wrong for the UK. Elementary's should be either an Infant or Junior schools unless they are in the same complex then it is a Primary School. High Schools should be Secondary's unless they specialise in certain subjects i.e. sciences, sports, technology then they become Academies

Technically any secondary school can be an academy... prior to Academies schools could specialise in a particular area and they had a different name. But, yes, Primary schools are primaries not elementaries.

Biffa, you're worried about the speed being too slow on the farm but most of those roads are dirt tracks and vehicles would only travel at about 20mph. Its only the kids racing their cars that would be doing 60. I think you need to upgrade the roads or downgrade the speed back to 20mph.

The real Chester Elementary has a student population of 527 - you can set it manually or fix the floor calculations and it lands in the same ballpark.

I think a cargo train station would also be usefull and realistic If you expand the farming areas.

Not sure how much realism you're going for, but British farms tend to put their buildings basically on top of each other to maximise space for either pasture or crops. More space taken in by the aprons for buildings the less money the land will make. So possibly worth having those farm buildings much closer together. Otherwise it looks good, also, country lanes in UK(as I'm sure you hate, like everyone else does) are a 60 limit haha, so could make yours 50 for sake of the chickens 😆

Thanks for new farm assets review! I will use this in my Netherlands Limburg project!

Area #1 has my preference. When expanding later on, the university campus can be used by those people as well. while in area #3 has water and a nice split river creek thingy next to it therefore we cannot expand there later on. Area #2 is just way to small.

It would be nice to have those cute low stone walls dividing some fields. Nice work.

For added farming realism, you should move the large grain-bins to a freight-trainstation in the small village (for ‘export’ of the grain by train) and the tractor-sale to the outskirts of the village to cover the entire farming area.

Top half of area three / left half of area two. Students walk/cycle/take public transport, so the top of the wide road leading up from the motorway junction would be a good point to start building from - high capacity to deal with the traffic but far enough away from lots of heavy vehicles.

that is one thing bothering me so hard in this game, city services always feel like they are only able to handle 5 -10 people. And then, there is no high density buildings like schools on the ground + living on the upper floors. you always end up with these inner citys with this big gaps where the services are located. At least here in europe, this just isnt the way cities are functioning.

Loving the Blightea-on-the-Wold series, but I would like to point out that Cotton ( and also Sugarcane ) can't be grown in the UK, the climate is not right. Wheat, Barley, Sunflower, Soybean, Corn, Oat and Canola can be farmed, also Potato and Sugarbeet. All veg as far as I know can be grown here although probably in polytunnels because our weather is pretty rubbish most of the time.

Unicampus: I would suggest placing it next to your train/bushub and industry. Here in the Netherlands we got some next to hubs, just because of the proximity to the hub. Use the road from the roundabout as access and have a nice pedestrian crossing over the 4 lane road to the campus fron the hub.
