How did you create the central station? Is there a mod for it?

i dont think the mall placement is making sense sadly :(. I prefer the big parking lots in american style

TRAAAAAAAAAAMZ! <3

could you, apart from making a methlab somewhere, give us a run down on the mods you are using? i wanna get into cs2 non-vanilla but dont know where to start :(

Seems like CS2 has come a really long way since launch. So happy to see that!

Alternatively, you could turn off the useless sub buildings in your shopping center and save the money and pollution. Also that bridge was goofy af and I'm glad it's gone.

I think that if you make the public transport free a lot more would use it since it's the same "price" as walking, but faster.

Add the bridge back but as a breakwater then have a marina behind it!

30:00 Really thought you were going to do a great oblongabout. With the avenue connecting to it without depending on it.

its 2am

new lightrail and homeless people everywhere? This city is becoming more and more like portland by the day!

Why do we need cars when we have too many public transport services 😂

Can we do a elevated tram station at the shopping center and have a elevated entrance link directly into the building? Btw we need that central rail park station too, despite it's very close in term of distance to other stations, still worth the density.

Good call on removing the bridge it didn't need it

comment from Taiwan I really like the railway all over the world especially Japan I've studied abroad in Japan before often taking different types of railway system and company I also hope that Taiwan's railway can be more out of traditional railways

so glad you deleted that road across the dock, never a fan of it.

I feel like the terminus of the LRT should have 4 tracks for realism: turning a vehicle around is pretty time consuming and bottle-necks the whole system, so adding additional capacity (and removing the parking lots, who needs those) feels like the obvious choice. Especially looking at NJ's path for reference. Just my 2 cents...

The shopping center spawning in was something i was not prepared for lol

Honestly, placing the station between Flawrence and the industrial site is not a bad call. It's certainly not ideal, but it allows the train to service both areas

as a mac user i’ve been playing CS2 using Nvidia Geoforce Now, but a lot of mods (anarchy moveit etc.) aren’t working which makes more interesting builds like yours so much harder or impossible…

Few things bring me more joy than watching $2.20 build old industrial train lines!

the bridge you deleted in the harbour could come back as a bus/transit only bridge, kinda like between wentworth point and rhodes in sydney. would link up nicely between your cbd and transit hub

last couple of videos have really felt like classic $2.20 again now that you can really detail things up. been playing a bit myself and i’m always inspired by the more interesting decisions you make - my straight line light rail is getting an upgrade asap!!

Could you copy the lithe rail. Upgrade the dupe to train track and move it back?

Incredible! I think you could make a supernode where your tram crosses the long park (old park) in your downtown. Your intersections will create way to much traffic.

I guess if you prefer to scale down your cities, you just need to scale down the distances between your tram stations as well ;) they are just too far away from each other right now. Thats why people prefer walking or just take the taxi instead.

Awesome infrastructure! It feels so realistic, great job as usual! To answer your question in the beginning of the episode, I'd say don't bother with placing cargo rails ontop of the tram rails. It's just going to be too much of a headache. Instead, just add in custom surfaces and decals in targeted areas. I have seen examples in real life where instead of there being concrete underneath the tracks, there's grass - well that could be cool to have in trendy little areas. To encourage more ridership, I have the following suggestions that could help: - I would suggest removing all of the taxi stands from the station with the exception of 1. - If you have any additional bus lines in New Dimesberg, I would suggest making them feed into the tram line or terminating them at tram stations to encourage transit transfers onto the superior transit technology (in this case, it's trams). One thing that I continue to see Cities players do time and time again is creating a network with various transit technologies that cannibalize each other; and by that, I mean that they make certain routes obsolete by having them use the same pathways. For example, having a bus route follow the exact same route as a tram route will cannibalize the ridership on both routes. I know that this happens in real life but in CS2, I think that it just confuses the cims as to which type of transit they want to take. - I would also suggest continuing the tram network to terminate either in front of the train station entrance or right in the bus bays. This would involve adding tracks to the roads but I think that a city would see the benefit in connecting the tram network directly to the ferry terminal, train terminal, and bus station and would pay to connect the tram accordingly. I think this would help your ridership by improving your transit convergence and thereby encouraging passenger transfer from one mode to another. My theory here is that once cims decide that they are going to walk to their destination, that they don't change their minds to use transit on the way. And since trams are slower, they may be taking into account stop lights, tram vehicle speed, etc and therefore are determining that walking is the fastest mode of transit. But that's just a theory lol.. It might be just worth an experiment to see how improving direct convergence onto trams affects your ridership. Great episode, and I'm excited to see how the tram network evolves going forward. It looks awesome!

This guy found many mods e g different buildings, hotels, tourist attractions, palm trees beaches kzfaq.infoahNPbBdrxu8?si=zFeXFFAe0hRKZvoH

i hope CO does a hot fix after their vacation to fix that homeless bug lol

17:14 that moment absolutely jumpscared me. I’m not sure how you enjoy destroying progress to spend time building more progress but that’s definitely inspiring me to destroy my whole city and build a new one. Thank you for the advice!

We visited this area last summer and took the train to NYC, it was very industrial, has lots of large bridges, docks, waterways, canals, and cranes, and there is large marshland right before you get to the Hudson tunnel, not very nice area to be honest

Maybe the low ridership isn't that bad. It does depict the american relation with transit 😂

I think that you should definitely include a pedestrian road bridge to replace the car bridge you deleted

The Newark subway is a light rail line in New Jersey

what music do you use for your videos?

I think there should be a one more stop in the Downtown, people don't like walking too much 😉

Metro soon?

The game is starting to look ok. It's just really boring to watch

One thing I don't like about this is that your train station doesn't have any commercial development around it, which is weird, cause all the major rail terminal in most of the cities have transit-oriented development all around it, but here its just plain waterfront... don't know, it just feels a little unrealistic as it is...

12:08 Simcity 2013 OST as always!

The people not using the light rail network could be caused by a public transport bug in Cities Skylines 2 the public tranport doesnt affect any traffic congestion or anything like that. Imperatur have tested it. Or maybe its because people just walk like you said instead of using public transport.

As new jerseyan I am loving this series so much. If i was to be nitpicky I would say there are 0 palm trees in NJ haha, but this is your world and it looks great regardless!

I’m finally able to play CS2!! I can’t wait!

There's no way he'd build a giant shopping cen- , he built a giant shopping center

Can I be famous 😅

I think it’s time to expand city

Having a subterranean tunnel connecting the bus/taxi depot and the tram would be amazing: imagine seeing the mob of people periodically emerge from the tunnels mouth?!

this is awesome. would love to see some more historical aspects to the city, like a museum - maybe using the asset editor? keep it up! 🎉

Fine without the bridge. Never thought it made sense to have such expensive infrastructure there

Im not about to just--- I did it. I built the shopping center. Great timing on that! I love it
