    When I hear about that stuff, I wonder how many of their decisions were influenced by a strong bias for modern american cities. Like what do they consider a "realistic" amount of parking? Would realistic parking still be ugly if they allowed you to build a more walkable city? Every time I played SimCity, it felt like they hard-coded specific outcomes instead of letting a neutral simulation play out. It was so hard to maintain farmland because they wanted every city to become Manhattan.

    ​@@SubjectiveObserver I swear some people just want their cities to be nonfunctional decorations. You either build parking lots - not garages, garages are for walkable cities - or you make a walkable city. You can't have neither, neither makes everyone's lives awful. It's how I feel about people trying to make unwalkable cities not car friendly. Basically forcing everyone to walk 2 hours just to get somewhere. I wouldn't mind parking in a garage, if I didn't have to walk 30 blocks to get to something. And have more winter options, because walking in -10°F iced roads is not good either. But people just don't think about this. People live and work in the cities, you're just making the city not friendly to people. No people city is what they are.

    Actually Matt, trains can go around roads. There was an incident in Canada many years ago where a small, fairly isolated town lost power after a storm. They drove a locomotive, or maybe 2, I forget, off the train tracks and down the road to get it to a position where they could connect the generator into the towns power grid and use it as effectively a big emergency generator. A diesel electric locomotive is effectively just a diesel generator on wheels. Now, I don't advise running a train on the road..... it dug groves into the tarmac, and the wheel sets on the locomotive needed an overhaul before it could go back on the rails, but it CAN be done.

    To be honest, I don't actually know. My guess is it was probably a straight line run from where it was lifted off the tracks to where it came to rest and was connected. Provided they were very careful about placing it on the road pointing in the right direction, the flanged wheels digging into the road would've helped keep it running pretty straight. If they did need to make any major course changes, such as turning onto another street, well they had a crane they initially used to lift it off the tracks and place it on the road, I'd guess they would've just lifted it with the crane again, carefully turned it while suspended, and then placed it back down again and continued in the new direction. *Edit as I missed an interesting point: That engine only travelled about 1,000ft to get to where it was to be used. They weren't actually connecting them direct to the towns power grid as I originally suggested, they were connecting them to some of the town municipal buildings so they could at least have power to help them organize emergency response. They were planning to take a second locomotive much further, to get power into a school that was being used as an emergency shelter, but that would've meant driving the locomotive over an overpass, and there was a lot of concern that the overpass would collapse under the weight of the locomotive, so in the end they didn't do that, and instead, kept the second nearby as a backup for the first.

    The secret is mixed zoning. If you have a bit of everything everywhere, people don't need to go as far to do/get stuff, so you effectively take them off the road. And for necessary commute you can add targeted public transit as an option, cutting that down by a large part as well. And keeping the road capacity limited will encourage the population to actually make use of those alternatives as well.

Screenshot of Bath the right scale you want to use. And you can work underneath in Cities Skylines. I used it to design my car liveries in Forza Horizon but I'm quite confident it works here too.

    Add that and maybe make the European theme actually look European and you'd actually have a good game. It would also help a lot to have all road types in different sizes because it's pretty weird that a pedestrian street is always the same size and you can't make it smaller. Or maybe just have different road sizes and you specify if it's one way or pedestrian or even a bycicle road yourself after building it, just as if you put up some signs. There are so many ways this game could be improved and it's honestly really sad that it's never going to happen.

    You were almost right on the lack of coal power plants in the UK. There's one left in Nottinghamshire and that's it, but it's due for closure later this year. Currently a measly 5% of our energy comes from wind, solar and hydro (most of that being wind) with the bulk coming from gas (40%) and oil (36%). There's a goal set for all energy to come from "clean" sources by 2035, I'm fairly skeptical of that time frame, one of the major roadblocks currently is that we have nowhere near enough energy storage in the UK (either through batteries or other storage methods like thermal storage or liquid air) and the UK hasn't exactly been known for investing in infrastructure for a long time now but these investments are necessary if we want to actually achieve the 2035 deadline.

    12:30 It's a shame Matt didn't put in any of the features of Royal Victroria Park. There's a skatepark there and even, in years long past now, a carousel and a bouncy castle. Not sure if there's anything like that still there but I know the old one isn't there anymore. My family used to manage the park before they were outbid on the tender for it. My grandad has the sign and an old horse from it.

    15:00 The UK has 2 working coal power stations left - apart from a few that have been or changed over to gas or to burn bio-wates eg wood pellets they have all been closed the last ones were closed in 2022 to 2023 before the 2024 deadline (UK) and 2025 (EU deadline) - one is based in Northern Ireland while the other is privately owned and only supplies power to a company they have a contract for to supply them power - they sometimes supply power to the national grid as an extra free service (even though it does not exist because it owned and run by a private company). Scotland just in wind power has about 100 to 300% as a base load and that is still growing the UK can run up to 100% on zero emission power if you include Nuclear Power in the summer - just this week 80 to 90% of power was produced that way

One or two storey houses with a slanted roof as expected, detached or semi-detached with larger driveways compared to the older row housing from 100-150 years back. I even checked Germany, Czechia and Poland for any sign of these houses in or around cities and villages and couldn't find anything that didn't look like that.
