"Imagine being the poor contractor that had to run these water pipes all the way up these mountains." I believe you mean rich contractor.

The tall mountain you put the radar on is supposed to be the volcano that made the islands. You should make it a national park with paths and camping all around it.

Exactly my thought when I saw that little lake and slightly flatter area behind it!

17:30, as someone who lives roughly in the mountains, steep cliffs right next to the road is an unnervingly realistic look.

Hi Biffa, I basically started playing cities skylines because I watched your videos. So, thank you for introducing me to the game! That being said; I just wanted to note that you'd never see a windmill near a satellite dish, since it sort of defeats the point of putting it (a giant dish that costs millions) on a a high mountain far away from any sources of interference (presumably because they're interested in having very 'clean' and highly accurate spectra). The rotating blades will reflect and scramble electromagnetic signals. I believe this can be significant enough to interfere even with cell phone coverage. I'd be much more realistic if the windmill is further down the mountain. or better yet: put in the powerlines, it'd make a lot of sense to have a dedicated high voltage line to such a facility to power the engines that move the dish for instance.

Asymetrical roads for highway or national roads are in the highway tab. That way u dont get the curbe and crossing

at 16:40 you have to live in the Alps or other mountains, just build bridges and tunels for the road and it will be fine

Hey Biffa, loving how the city is turning out! Are there any mods that allow luxury homes? I think setting up a section of beach or mountainside with mansions would make for an interesting look and add variety to some sections of New Tealand.

There are a couple really nice mansion assets, I pretty much have them all cause I love little mansion communities on the beachfront as well. (Mansion Pack, Palm Beach House, Historic Mansions, Brick McMansions, and Los Angeles Mansion Pack. Then some pool assets and decals to make a fancy backyard) Then Invisible Pedestrian Paths and beach props so it looks like they are using the beach.

23:25 That road layout looks like the outline of a narwhal. Maybe it could be called Narwhal Beach? Maybe use rocks to simulate it blowing air through its blowhole.

I can just imagine CPP cringing while watching you put that road up the side of the mountain.

"Let's try to keep this more realistic." > Has giant floating rocks

Biffa, it looks great. 1st: the asymmetrical road attachment on the one-way road access to the new space area, should have a 2 lane one way road. 2nd: for the mountain access road, many places around the world have used elevated road/bridges sections on steep inclines, or you could have used Cable cars or a Funicular Railway.

(Biffa places the residential zones) "Let's see what happens." "And what happens here is that we have no power." 😆

6:57 pretty sure the fence curves inward at the top so might need to flip one side

Please put an observatory in the mountains! Extension of the campus?!?

Hi Biffa. Wanted to let you know, Network Multitool will work with networks other than roads, like fences and quays, as well. Makes fencing in a large area super easy.

18:32 IRL you'd see the road gradually climb up to the top in a spiral around the peak. 12% is usually a high incline, but acceptable. 35 is insane. Nobody in their right mind would build a road like that. 23:23 if it's got only one outside connection that's still a cul-de-sac. A pretty large one but a cul-de-sac nonetheless

Name Suggestion for the new area “Pearl Hills”. You could call it “Ooo Long Beach” or “OOOH Long Beach” after the beach towns in NY, NJ and CA called Long Beach blended with oolong tea!

City Planner Plays: "Respect the topography." Biffa: "I'm going to snake a road up the side of this mountain." :D

Biffa: I don't want this to be a cul de sac (Does a loop) Biffa: Maybe we can add something here (Adds a cul de sac)

I am again begging you to not destroy the city when you're done. It's so beautiful. I know it's just a game, but seeing it flooded or destroyed by a meteorite (or whatever disaster you'd use) will be heartbreaking.

Hi Biffa!. You know a good day starts watching your new video while having breakfast. Btw, I had the same problem with ferry and bridge height, so i solved it by replacing the ferry with a different asset; the name of the ferry that I found to be very very low height is "Spree-Blick Tour Ferry". Hope you will solve that, the bridges looks so unrealistic :*

Your Sloppy Slope road sort of looks like Pike’s Peak in the Rockies at Colorado. It is a nice stretch of curvy road folks climb race with their vehicles. At places it has some nice falls for your car to go downhill if you miss a turn, but overall the view on it is breathtaking (or may be the 15k ft altitude…). Roads aside, up at the Chilean mountains they have their Large Synoptic Survey Telescope (LSST). Yours could be named “Large Tea Survey Telescope (LTST)”.

20:37 - that would be an amazing biking road. Little use, steep climb - a lot of bikers would kill to ride it. Maybe you could add a biking lane to it for them?

Awesome video. Appreciate the humor! I assume the government would give tax relief or exemptions for the residents near the launch site, or the company would pay them or something, maybe buy them vacation tickets on the day of a launch. Also, for the water pipes on top of the mountain, they'd probably cut through because the land will not be used for anything.

Biffa, CPP discovered an asset that acts like the earthquake sensor, only it's designed specifically to jump power. It's literally called a Power Jumper, or something similar to that. You may want to consider using that, as it seems to work really well in his build!

You could make that last bit of the road to the space radar go in a spiral around the mountain tip. It would be not so steep and more realistic.

"Would you have it that far away?" The US launches rockets from Florida and has deep space radars all over the planet.

I just love this. Every addition to the city just fits in beautifully with everything. Your approach is very cohesive. That’s probably the reason I’ll rewatch your builds again and again.

In my opinion a cable car to the telescope would be nice. In switzerland you often see some cable car just to go to a dedicated spot on a mountain. Sometimes even just for transporting goods. Sadly there is no "small" cable car in cities skylines... Or maybe you could turn the road to the top into a gravel one. Concrete to the top on such a outlying point doesn't seem too realistic to me. But still: nice work :D

Biffa, you can use the node tool to slope your paths and roads to arch them in the middle. You can have much lower, more realistic bridges. Do it on each end. Great for short sections.

@AceEverett

2 жыл бұрын

Yeah, it works best to arch them in the middle with no column underneath, then have the boats travel directly underneath the highest part like in real life.

Hi Biffa! Instead of smoothy smooth, you could have turned the wierd sections into a bridge, it is not uncommon in mountanous area.

Ehi Biffa, tip for when you are doing the fences, I don't remember if it works (I should try) but with the parallel tool shouldn't it be simpler and more accurate to place fences alongside the roads?

@sumopete2051

This does work, used it to fence of a pond in my park earlier today, Also works with quays (and Quay anarchy) to make reinforcing walls to mask small "cliff faces".

There's a brilliant metal sliding gate and associated fence on the workshop that marries up perfectly with the prison fence and gatehouses to create a sort of official entrance. Such a nice addition. And you'd never have a wind turbine next to the sensitive equipment in a deep space radar dish IRL, there's way too much noise. You need a less noisy power option!

please can you build a area with only europeing buildings(high rise)

I have a suggestion : on that little plot of empty land under the cargo train station there could be a park for the people to watch the rockets launches from a close and safe distance

Idea for that small lake up in the mountain next to dish,put an old wooden cabin,and decorate it,put solar panels and stuff,that wold be lovely. Good stuff.

Instead of the steep ped path over the ferry, you should convert that to a road and use the movable bridge mod. Or just add a stop to the cable car line

4:11 why not use node controller to lengthen that intersection so that trucks coming up/right don’t need to stop/slow down so much? Also, a dirt road probably would look better and might be more realistic if it isn’t going to have a lot of traffic

Placing the earthquake sensor to jump the power at the launch site reminded me of a fun little story about earthquake sensors and rockets. When they first fired up the Saturn V's F-1 engine for testing in Huntsville, it was detected by every seismograph in the state of Alabama as well as a in bordering states. That engine was nuts

the space centre needs a berm around the entrance to keep it from flooding and the space radar needs to be a lot further away from any other thing wit electricity to prevent EM interference

I just love these series so relaxing!!. Buth wouldnt it be normal that the highway between the launchsite and the new Village had sounbarriers?

It's always a delight to watch new tea land expand and grow.

KZreadrs creating mountain roads: City Planner Plays (after 10 attempts): No. No just can't do it. I can't leave it like that. Biffa: YOLO thisisfine.jpg

Pearl Hills (next to the launch site) could be named “BooTea” as the shape of the zone looks like a bootie.

I immediately thought “cable car!” When he put the radar on top. So what do you think about that? I’d like to go up there via a cable car and try find my house, sipping a tea. Btw why not name the spaceshutle “NT(ea)T(ea) …” instead of NCC ?

Another funicular could also work.

That radar dish installation looks fantastic as does your Pearl Hills and Thornton Heights district. Now all you need is an observatry close to the radar dish so your astronomers from the University can track the stars for the astrologers who then can make star-charts, horoscopes, and whatnot for lots of money!!!! 😁😉 Finishing up, with an autosave sipatea!

Hello again Biffa. A little community around the little sea on the mountain with the Deep Space Radar would look very nice. Another suggestion there isn't a passenger harbour in New Tealand yet. Tourists are flying in only by planes, trains and buses.

34:18 as this bus route can already bring people to the metro station near the rocket site you can make it a local route only on this island and not go over the bridge to the metro station on the other side

0:58 Love that someone just died at that exact moment at the James Tea Kirk Space Center 😅

1:18 - It really, REALLY should be the NCC-1701-T. 16:40 - the areas that are way too cliff-y for you could just be turned into bridges.

Some suggestions: The pass up to the satellite dish could use some barriers on the steeper drop off sections to help prevent cars from "driving off the side", a path under the rail & highway from Pearl Hills to the rocket launch site, the two sections of Pearl Hills is connected by a national road - no pedestrian access from one side to the other, the wind turbine ay Pearl Hills was used initially only to power the toll gate - no longer needed plus at 3 Megawatts, it's inefficient and expensive.

At the end of the two new districts, maybe you could add walking / bike paths under the highway, for an easy wark for people to get to the rocket site for work.

Your city is absolutely amazing. I created my own build on this map and instead of Deep Space Radar I use Christ the Redeemer (Portuguese: Cristo Redentor). I uploaded couple of videos on my channel. The one with mentioned statue will be out soon. Keep up good work.

Pearl Hills could be named: Boca Chica, like the villige near Spacex Starbase. Where they build and launch the Starship.

26:40 the bus route doesn’t bring people to metro cause it’s only one way and flow away from space center... P.S. IMHO this is Ridiculously long bus route, as well as metro route. I would split metro on three part. Tearantula till sugar cube. Water cross. And all new islands

For the final ascent up the mountain maybe it should be a cable car from a village by the lake to the observatory.

@28:00 You should add a path from the residence to the working area of the launch site. "Pearl Hills" should be renamed "Regulus" from STNG.

NAME for Pearl Hills - Coco Beach, a town in Florida just down the road from Kennedy Space Center. This was also the town where "I dream of Jennie" was set. Jennie's Master was also an astronaut.

This video deserves 1.000.000 like for the James Tea Kirk Space Center alone!!! Tea long and prosper Biffa!!!

Hi Biffa, Close to launch pads, you usually have industrial areas but not housing. If you want to go for a futuristic Spaceport, it will probably start with Tourism around the spaceport.

I like to imagine the new inhabitants of New Tealand are our original engineers and builders. They are super nestled, from rockets, museums and sports complexes, amusement park, the world's most amazing ferry rides, and of course, their magnum opus build, Alien Rock Park.

I'm gradually catching-up. It's nice to see you're putting the ferries under the bridges, *where they belong*. 😉

Aaaah Biffa I love that Spongebob Imagination meme you put in there! Had to pause to see if it was real or I just imagined it, wonderful!

25:41 - Still need that power line? For public transportation, make the gondola stop in the windmill open/new area and use that as the main bus terminal station. This way only the dictate the bus to the island and does not need to travel so far.

Maybe using dirt roads for the satellite dish could look a bit more natural and not too unrealistic (also a tunnel/bridge or two could help with the ascend). Also a name suggestion for a lookout tower up there "Teadious Vista" or similar. Looking forward to the next one!

For the road going up the mountain to the deep space telescope...where it puts a land build up to meet your level needs, replace those sections with bridges. We here in the mountainous regions of the US have this done going up and down our mountains and through passes...so...Bridges !!!

Nice! To boldly go where no one has gone before.

About the mountain road. If you would have used the round dotted thingy on the road thingy instead of keep it on the ground there would have been bridges and tunnels to smooth out stuff. That's the way you do in reality. Specially the bend at about 16.22 would have been built like a bridge. The keep the road on the ground usually screw things up in my opinion. Using the vanilla one would keep you from having to smooth things out all the time when there is a bit of terrain. That makes it look way more realistic.

I don't want this to be a Cul-de-sac... And the whole area is one giant Cup-de-sac 😂 Always a pleasure watching you share your play time with us.

The sleepy little community is all the scientist and other workers on launch site. A small town build specifically to house them near their workplace and keep them somewhat separate from the rest of the island for security reasons

The reaidential district next to the launch site, should be called "Boca Teaka", after the "Boca Chica" area next to the SpaceX Launch site 😊

You could rename the Pearl Hills area to "Cacophony Coast" since they're right next door to the space center

Hi Biffa, been loving your videos, I've learnt so much, Loving the new name for rocket ship, was brought up watching Star Trek.

16:30 - Convers tome of that to elevated, with maybe the highest parts being a bridge.

"you know what... if you don't see it... PERFECTLY FINE!!" .. LOL I CRACKED UP!!!!!

Happy you liked my suggestion! Sorry if the mountain road was a pain to build lol

Please use S bends on the final accent to the Sateallite Dish. It needs switchbacks, the gradient is too hectic.

The Pearl Hills community off-ramp heading towards the JTK Rocketry Complex was made asymmetrical instead of a two lane off-ramp road at 3:51.

All those national roads will stop people walking round to the space centre and the commercial zone, likewise also between the two residential areas and the small road which connects them to the aquarium island.

I live in the foothills of the Rocky Mountains Biffa an that's exactly how the highways look when you drive through. Sheer drop off on one side and straight up vertical on the other. It's pretty but kind of scary.

You have placed a gate on the main highway to shut down traffic in the event of a launch. Right beside the highway bridge is a secondary road bridge (28:17) that people can use to get onto the highway. Eventually you will need on on the other side of the island once you start build on the island next to this one.

I'm curious if you could use the parallel roads mod feature with the prison fence, since it looks like it really wanted to be a road with how it was snapping

It’s looking great! Might want some more key walls though especially by the new ferry spot

Hey biffa, the city is coming along grand mate. I think you should put the telescope up on the hill with the deep space radar, that would set that wee area up lovely mate. Best wishes pal.

26:24 F the bus loop, you're on the waterfront, how can you not consider adding a ferry terminal? You can use a ferry to get around the Cape, bypassing the Highway, and connect to the wider map as well!

Hey Biffa! First of all, your videos are very entertaining and I really enjoy watching you. Keep up the good work! I have one request, if you could use your reach for a good cause ^^ I would like to play Cities Skylines again, but the game doesn't support my monitor resolution, so the Cities Skylines is very blurry and therefore not a nice gaming experience.... The resolution we are talking about is: 5120x1440 (32:9 format). It would be great if someone in your community could write a mod for this, so that the game can show its beauty in this resolution. I would be very happy, best regards!

12:10 Would have the deep dish radar that far away? The first moon landing the radar was in Parkes, Australia, sending the messages back to the U.S and to everyones T.V. The radar was on the opposite side of the world. Your radar will have to be within your city. It can't be too far away.

put a nice little camp around the lake up by the radar dish, maybe a couple of houses for the Rader operators as well

Oh come now Biffa, Elderly persons are the perfect to be right next to a rocket launch. They don't mind the noise nearly as much.

4:07 you just need 2 lane road there not asymetrical, since it is highway. 5:14 i would change the lanes without this separate turning road to straight on and right one lane and left turn separate, just to avoid crossing traffic blocking up the junction. 25:50 The bus route loops after it passes the rocket launch site, so it is kinda long route for them to drive over there. You either will need a CW and CCW route or maybe add separate line.

Biffa put some houses on the road that you built on the mountain to connect your Space radar thing. Could give the city a hollywood vibe

4:23 that's a highway offramp. It's one way. You don't need dedicated turning lanes into it

you were saying to imagine those containers were fuel in the last video... well if those blew up then who's gonna save them since the hospital and fire dept are right there lol.

Another episode!!!! Whoaaaa! Biffa I'd love for you to look over my ps4 city :) also the mountain lake with the sweeping road reminds me of the Forza horizon 5's volcano at the very start! Looks wicked!👌🏼

Hey Biffa 😊 a) people can't walk to the new ferry terminal and b) you can probably download ferry assets that aren't quite so big, especially since the vanilla ferries hold a pathetically small amount of people

That prison road is a lot slower than the regular roads by default. It was very visible with the dumper truck and the bus that followed. Kinda makes sense.

You could have made the area next to the space Center into an Research area with Offices and Props and named it the "Scott-tea Research Facilities"
