For your road sit-e-ation, might I suggest watching Biffa's city fixing series if you haven't already? VERY informative and instructive ^_^

@F14thunderhawk

2 жыл бұрын

Biffa's City fix is the opposite of informative. the first thing when you have a traffic jam is to find the absolute front of the traffic system, because fixing back to front means you dont locate and account for any actual problems. Further, lane mathmatics is completely worthless. You cant fix the traffic AI by giving the AI individual lanes in merges, that has nothing to do with what goes wrong, which is that the AI will randomly assign lanes over long distances without respect to short distance decisions. The AI will ignore any logic you try to force on it to maneuver how it wants. my largest single traffic jam ive had was caused not by bad pathing but because the demand for parking outstripped the available parking by 3 orders of magnitude.

@@F14thunderhawk Except Biffa does both of these things correctly. He follows traffic jams until he finds the front and then fixes it front-to-back, unless it's total gridlock and the traffic jam is just one closed loop. And he uses lane mathematics as a short-distance fix, to create a 'dedicated turning lane' at specific junctions. I don't think I've ever seen him suggest lane mathematics is a fix for long-distance AI pathing problems. He does, however, increase the AI logic setting in Traffic Manager to around 70%, which may overcome those problems (I'm not sure).

disabling those million unused pedestrian traffic lights they keep stopping at might help... also probably something with one-way roads.

Someone already mentioned how trucks can drive a little farther to reach their destination, but i would actually reccomend that the trucks get redirected to your larger roads rather than directly to the highway. You would do so by essentially severing that connection between the blocks rather than connecting the blocks further, although it seemed like most of the traffic in that area was also directed to the oil warehouse rather than the highway(meaning the oil storage placed locally was full).

If you don't want to mess with the lane controller tool, learn some "Lane Mathematics". Basically make sure the lanes before and after add up to the same number. So if you have one lane coming off a highway, you either want 3 before then 1 exit lane and 2 continuing on. Do the same at merges but in reverse (so 2+1 becomes 3).

So, Kibitz, each industry has its own 'problem', or difficulty with building with it. As you've found, with oil extraction, it's the density of extraction volume. You can get an absurd amount of oil, but it won't go anywhere and you couldn't fit enough processing facilities on the map if you tried with every possible oil extractor placed. The inefficiency of processing buildings is another issue with it. In the same vein, forestry has the issue of massive extraction and support buildings - forestry barracks in particular are massive. Ore has massive extractors, and farming has large extractors and processing facilities with a lot of noise pollution, among each industry's other quirks. Makes them each unique to set up and manage, but definitely max-output oil fields are something only for those who have merged their mind and their computer. By the way, if you've ever paid attention to a real highway from a civil engineer's perspective (that of Cities Skylines resembles one in roadwork), you'll notice that in particularly high-traffic areas, they tend to add and remove lanes for entrance/exit ramps. That can help a lot, since it reduces lane changes for the vehicles which would otherwise vastly slow overall movement. So if you have, say, a 3 lane road, which you do, that subsequently has a heavily used ramp merge onto it, and then another one merge off of it just after (this being the one that leads to the planes and first trains), it can help immensely to make the road in between those two a four-lane one instead of just the three. Once that's done, you don't even need to force traffic to go places lane by lane -as much- since they're going to have enough space and do it naturally.

I don’t know if you are doing this already, but a good tip when it comes to managing traffic is lame Mathematics, basically if there is a road that merges into another road than the road needs to add a lane for the new lane. Another tip is that you don’t want traffic to have the option to cross paths at an intersection, the fewer times traffic crosses paths the smoother it will be, this means forcing traffic to pick a path prior to an intersection or to follow a smoother route

Oil industry in this game is extremely unrealistic. And I hate it bc I literally work in it

Too many traffic lights Lane mathematics is hidious Too much roundabout Too much chaos

Protip: When making lane connections, use CTRL+S to have the lane connector automatically connect a simple intersection/exchange.

The roads connecting to your production buildings should all be one way. This will help prevent that bunching up issue you were seeing, as trucks dropped off their load and then immediately tried to turn around.

i think industries in general need their items to go storages 1st before they get used by processing facilities, otherwise it seems like the items get sold

There are a couple of places I noticed where it might be beneficial for you to learn about lane mathematics and dedicated turning lanes. Watch Biffa's traffic fixing vids if you are unsure about the terms. :) 19:38 Those yellow diamond signs are not yield. They mean basically, no restriction.

Ya, roundabouts are very application-specific. Once they hit their maximum, they are disasters waiting to happen.

So i was watching and a thought occurred to me. At the beginning it looked like you had a processing plant, extractor, and train Station isolated. Maybe a modular system with an extractor, enough plants to use all the oil, and a dedicated station(or maybe one station for a bunch) would absolutely destroy your traffic problem

I'm sorry friend. I hope it gets better !

I think the way how it goes in this game is that it's not too big of a deal if a vehicle has to take a longer path to get somewhere. They are fast. So there is no need to have so many intersections where one place directly leads to another. You could probably build a single block that's, like, 20-30 buildings long, and there won't be any traffic issues, as there's nothing that slows the trucks down, and the trucks will just drive the full length. Only an added intersection for a shortcut is the source of spicy jam

@kpcsjc

Only problem is the cims in the game refuse to use more than one lane, so trucks that are stopping to go into their factories will slow EVERYTHING down due to the fact that instead of just passing them the cims will just stop and wait

Try giving the freeway that goes to the first train station a secondary direct connection to the airport, so they don't have to loop all the way around. Might help with that traffic there.

Man I love the way you blow things up in your city. You should have have called in Meteor shower. I laugh all the time in this series so far. Are you sure you are not related to the spiffing brit.

I love it! I can’t wait for the big numbers to get bigger.

Lane Mathematics: If you split (highway roads) the number of lanes before and after the node should be equal - e.g. 3 lane Highway turns into 2 lane highway + exit lane. Then TM:PE will automatically assign a single right turn lane. If you want to assign lanes you can press for "straight" and in many cases it will automatically assign something useful.

Kibitz: What if we spread out the extraction like, a lot? Me: Great Scott! HE'S GOT IT!

you would have much better traffic using more local roads instead of the big boys - or if you use them get rid of all those signals at the intersections and make propper priority roads. Also more connectivity is great to reduce funneling (the grid is the answer) . It was a good idea to mix and balance the extraction and the production. I would also recommend mix in more storages (also for the products like plastic) all around. In the next step you could set up some generic industries to produce some goods from all those materials to max out the profit. btw you brought me into this game with this series and now I've already spent more than 400h there xD

“Nothing beats black gold” -Sun Tzu (probably)

Amazing episode yet again! Keep it up :)

You need to get rid of some of the traffic lights so the trucks don't have to slow down and stop for long

YESSS, AN OTHER CITY SKYLINES VID! LOVE THE CONTENT! KEE IT UP!!

Basically in the extraction area at 12:48 you had a clockwise setup on the road. So on the main road in one place you had mix of traffic that are leaving extraction area and traffic that are returning to the extraction area. Just changing that part to the anti clockwise "circle" already will separate in and out traffic. Plus as suggested already check Biffas video for aetuping correctly turning lanes

Oh yes every part of the 28 minutes I love this is enough to satisfy me for days to come

😂Tbh, this is kind of satisfying and I really enjoyed your exploitation towards the city!!

You don't need(but can still do it with it) the lane connector in this use case. The two most popular other ways are to either downgrade the next road have one lane less(called lane mathematics) or to use the tool that's right next to the lane connector, since it's a watered down but easier to use version of the lane connector. Don't overdo it in cities however as it will make some vehicles take strange routes.

Love this series man👍

tbh everyone knows were the fuck they going so why stop and slow shit down. drivers in this know the roads before ever stoping.

This is really awesome... however, one significant issue with traffic is when you force trucks to take left hand turns. That happens when a well or pump is on the right of a factory instead of the other way around. A more optimal solution would have been rows set up with ONE oil well/pump then a couple factories that make either petroleum or plastic(maybe not both), followed by whatever major factory that turns that resource into a product, all in one row, always making right hand turns, always the shortest distance between them. This is awesome tho and its prolly not as necessary to have the special product creation buildings NEXT to the oil and petroleum or plastics because they're massive. You can set up a cargo port/train station/airport in the new area for the special goods factories so you don't need as many trucks anyway to transport all the resources to that area of the map. So you're right to make it their own "little" district later. But you saw that one oil well/pump makes significant amounts of barrels. Optimize one pump/well to however many factories that make the oil into plastic or petroleum. Thats ONE SEGMENT and it should repeat like the trains do. Then in the other area, you optimize as many factories necessary to use all the barrels of everything so you export NO OIL PLASTIC OR PETROLEUM. You only export special goods. So if you need to use warehouses, they're always to the left of the factory for the special goods that use those resources. This comment doesn't mean redo it all over again! Im just sure you'll play this game again with a new map down the road. Its just food for thought next time or with OTHER areas of industry. So if you make a forestry industry, or mine for ore, or a farming industry, whatever else like that. To get less traffic issues IN GENERAL, the goal is to prioritize people making right hand turns as often as possible and as many paths to the same destination as possible so they all arent on the same road...

You don't need the lane connector tool if you make the highways so there's extra lanes for the exits, and less lanes after. So if you have a two-lane road on the entrance and a three-lane for 10-20u before an exit, through-traffic will be forced into the left lanes. Most traffic problems on the highways in this game comes from using the same lane count everywhere. By adding and removing lanes just like in real life, you can force the traffic to split up. Also putting exits on the outside and avoiding sharp corners helps a ton too

Am I the only one yelling "BUILD ANOTHER AIRPORT!" like ten minutes before it happened?

I saw a video where they used 4 lane roads and gave turning signs only on the center ones, so the trucks can easily park get in and out the buildings without generating any traffic. Hope this helps you

I think Biffa’s help might be an order (Don’t listen to him he definitely wants to fix all your traffic despite what he says)

my advice to you is to remove the traffic lights, they only interfere and change the roads to ordinary instead of concrete ones, they will be more efficient due to the turns of the cars

B-e-a-utiful city man! Congrats!

I suggest making the main roads only having lights at big intersections and when little roads join make them have the stop sigh so the main roads are always moving no stop (making a priority road) works well for me

OIL!

With a little help from Traffic Manager you'll keep that traffic under control. All you gotta do is remove conflict points e.g. left turns where someone has to yield to oncoming and/or conflicting traffic. You eliminate those your traffic will move much easier. Also that diamond is _priority_ not yield

Farming is the only industry that doesn't dry up. The others are just better to import all the base goods for manufacturing.

Hope you remembered some fire stations in that area ;D

Also do it better than the disaster he did. So many traffic things I was banging my head, like the "yield".

I think the extraction buildings look for a storage building first, if there is one, to drop off there and then the storage building makes a truck to go to the production building. If you clump up all your storage and have it between the extraction & production buildings, the trucks might understand your plan. I say think, because after a while I just give up and let my industry areas become clogged messes because the drivers in this game are just the worst at planning routes...

put at least one dedicated storage wharehouse per resource near the new area (and scattered in the old as well). Try 2 T junctions instead of a single X junction

Roundabouts are gridlock magnets. If any of the outputs shut down (for whatever reason) the entire roundabout shuts down. I remember watching a video looking at real-life roundabouts, and the comparison they used was times square vs. this 75 meter roundabout in a 6,000 person town. Can you imagine the chaos a 75-meter roundabout in the middle of New York would cause? It'd be like the Arc de Triomphe nightmare except with Taxis and guns.

I find it works well to add an oil specialised industry area and zone in some industry to fill out around the more sparsely placed big industry buildings. Before the expansion this would import a lot of oil to make products but with the expansion it seems to make products from some of your spare oil. A little normal industry near by to transform things into products also helps. Just trying to do 100% oil to petroleum and plastic never works well for me. Products for Days!
