crabrock posted:my college town has the opposite problem. they put "art" in the middle of an intersection, now people think it's a roundabout, blow through the stop sign and swerve into the crosswalks with pedestrians. Seriously, what were they thinking would happen when they plop down a giant circle on the pavement across an entire intersection?  edit: The proposed solution is "put flags on top the stop signs" instead of "stop confusing drivers and clearly endangering pedestrians" sorry but your city is pretty dumb in this instance

the whole thing is pretty lol. there's a longer, more inflammatory article somewhere. I don't live there anymore, so I can take none of the responsibility for the bike wheel pedestrian killing car art.

There would be much more efficient ways to do a giant sky roundabout.

Curvature of Earth posted:Am I doing roundabouts right? Now keep in mind right turns are super easy and don't even deal with that knot in the sky... you have that whole thing up there just for left turns (and U turns) and they're really silly. It is kind of mesmerizing though. And, uh... U-turns are kind of okay and actually somewhat important given the canal between lanes you have there..

Yeah, the right turns aren't bad, and the u-turn lanes aren't bad, but left turns are a giant curlycue through the sky.

CO has announced that the tunnel and wall to wall building patch will be at least one month away from now. https://forum.paradoxplaza.com/forum/index.php?threads%2Fapril-progress-update.851539%2F They are also doing a Q and A in that thread if you want to read an official forum thread past the OP.

Not totally flat and boring but it doesn't look so hilly that you'd have huge issues building stuff. ToastyPotato posted:CO has announced that the tunnel and wall to wall building patch will be at least one month away from now. Wall to wall building is pretty cool. I really want to somehow be able to assign a theme to certain assets and then be able to designate a district to only allow growables that correspond to that theme. I want to use those Belgian buildings someone put on the workshop because they look amazing but it'd look really out of place for them to be scattered around with other more modern buildings.

Yeah it's kind of what I'm going for, the hard part is coaxing the terrain generation software I'm using to actually do it. You wouldn't think this stuff is time consuming and yet it manages to be exactly that. I love building in valleys, I don't know why. The tunnel update should make it even more fun, I'm slobbering for it.

It's probably true but 'why bloat the filesize of my mod when I can just make them download the dependency' is probably the thinking.

 Sometimes you have an idea to do something, and spend ages tinkering away to get it to work, then you take a look back over your work and think 'what have i wrought?'

Moridin920 posted:It's probably true but 'why bloat the filesize of my mod when I can just make them download the dependency' is probably the thinking. No it's just about modularization. If I make a building that also has a custom lamp post prop, and I want to be able to use that custom lamp post in other assets, then it makes sense to have that lamp post be a separate, dependent prop.

Yeah, fair enough. It's not really that big of a deal imo since the Steam workshop makes it easy. Tells you 'Hey make sure you have these dependencies!' and lets you subscribe to them easily. It was hell in SC4 because one mod site would have an ~essential mod~ and the dependencies for it would be on a second site and the dependencies for those would be on a third site, and they all require registration. Kinda like the Sims in that regard.

I really hope part of this mega patch is a ton of new growable buildings. Its cool that the workshop has tons, but it would be nice for the base game to have tons by default.

quote:What is known is that the update will allow players to create tunnels, and introduce support for wall-to-wall buildings. That implies new buildings I think, not sure they would introduce support without examples? Personally hoping for some kind of sea wall or embankment. Friction posted:I love trains. Very nice, links to the filler lots please.
