It's not even that they're getting mugged anymore. The criminals are just standing at the door accepting protection money. The dead body is kept on display as warning if you don't pay for protection.
Nobody: James:"Wow cargo trains everywhere" Also Challenge: Make a public transport city i.e. Ban all cars and have an efficient system to support the population
@@RoseAlchemist22 Right!! Honestly for that I would reccomend the Montréal (real city) map because it's flexible in that way and by far is one of my favourite steam workshop maps...
*"MY BAD!"* Mayor responds to criticism _Lakewood_ - In recent light (or lack thereof) of the continued power outage in the commercial district for over 5 months, the mayor finally "got around" to his critics. Power fluctuations have rendered office spaces to be abandoned in the south islands after a long period of silence from the mayor. Those who frequent the south island for work have felt a sense of neglect while the other islands receive more attention. "He's like a A.D.D. squirrel!" one business owner exclaimed, "I've even heard rumors of him muttering something about raw materials not being his problem or something. What a douche." Citizens did not expect the mayor to apologize in the controversial dismissing tone with a simple "My bad!" but the long overdue south island problem is finally fixed. In other news, the Lakewood Loggers lost their match against the Springfield Strippers. Again.
Challenge: No dumping sewage directly into bodies of water. (no cheeky man made reservoirs that have sewage treatment) The resulting "naturally forming" pooplake is something you have to protect from and district around. Extra challenge: Poop mountain/sewage volcano
Do you know if you dig a pit and drag your poo outlet over it, will it fill over time and overflow? That would be a full fledged disaster, no DLC required lol
Sir. Sir. Have you ever heard of a thing called "cities skylines Sedona"? Or maybe, "cities skylines parklife"? You arent a fan of this channel until youve binge watched both of those cities.
Humpbacked runway... did not realise at first it was the runway. There are some real life runways that are "interesting" in that way, but not quite as bad as that.
Fun fact, aircraft carriers have an elastic cable strung across the airstrip, and the aircraft are outfitted with a hook to latch onto it. To ensure that the aircraft don't plummet off the side of the carrier into the ocean because of insufficient speed, they actually blast through the airstrip until they latch onto the cable and it safely slows and stops their movement. So, in some way, I can see the steps your airport took to ensure planes don't plummet off the edge. But it's probably very unrealistic with the size of commercial planes compared to military aircraft. Still, fact of the day.
Hey Semaj! I would love to see you build a city on this map like you would do, starting as a regular city with unlock all off, and as you grow the city and unlock the various transport you could have each island with a different type of public transport, kind of like an ultimate mode of this challenge and the ships only challenge you've done. It'd be cool to see if it can be done (if anyone can do it it's you!) And would make a cool little series! Btw I'm a big fan and love you and your videos, stay awesome James! :) :) :)
I love this map. After watching the other challenge video with the 2 small islands I downloaded the mod collection you posted and this map. So far I have a decent town set up with the residential along the cove coastline and commercial and industrial along the peninsula south of it. Only issue I've run into is trying to move the industrial to the smaller island that sort of curves along the backside of the main island but when I try to do this the industrial population vanishes all together.
the sight of those people crossing the bridge towards the train station eager to stay in crime infested island paradise looking city cracks me up everytime
Just here to say your videos are popping up in my recommended, never heard of this game before but the videos are great. I guess the algorithm chose correctly
^ I like this idea... Then I thought about it and he'd be constantly switching back to old islands to make sure they didn't explode... or not really know if his new challenge city is doing well, because his old challenge stats would still be there. ...Still I like the idea
You can with TPME mod. I don't have any good links at hand but it's been done a few times. The only thing that's absolutely required is a link to an outside connection, be it road, rail, boat or airport. Or possibly a ped walkway from the outside connection to the town; haven't seen that one attempted yet. I have a little medieval town kinda modeled on old walled cities where you have to park your car at the edge of town and walk or bike through. I'm not sure how well it would scale up but it works for what it is as long as I allow garbage trucks, emergency svcs, hearses and buses along the walkways. Being that the game doesn't seem to count ped congestion as actual congestion, it's almost an exploit. Of course building a mass transit system capable of getting the masses around efficiently is a different story.
And this just gave me a great idea for a mod or expansion - Garbage barge. Plenty of cities around the world transport garbage via barges towed by tugboats. They could have mini-garbage hubs where trucks unload garbage on to the barges which are then towed away to a larger facility. It'd work exactly like the bus+ferry terminal only with garbage trucks and boats.
You know what would be interesting? Building a city in CS and creating a story about it. I feel like a story-city series made by you would be great. Also with that cool map. Idk.
Challenge: Make a 99k people city with industry/offices, commercial and residential separated. They may only be interconnected with highways. Only road transport allowed. Good luck.
2:52 Shetland's Sumburgh Airport is like that, with the runway going right off a cliff. As far as i know, it's completely safe as long as the plane takes off fine. (Shetland is a Scottish island in the north sea in case you didn't know)
a way to make money, was shown by biffa. just let everyone walk through a park entrance - and maybe add toll booths. That could help on the next island project using blimps, cable cars and freight planes :)
Only Trams and for Cargo you can use trains, to get people in you are allowed to use an airport. Your best way to beat the roads issue is to ban cars with a mod or something? You are also allowed to use larger capacity tram models
I've never noticed an entry in game for raw goods. Is that listed anywhere? It's not unusual to see finished goods being imported, unless I'm misunderstanding what goods importing means. I know there's no warehouse option to store raw goods. Only finished goods. So a cargo airport, does that import raw goods resources for general industry (outside of a specialized industrial district) to turn into finished goods, or does the airport just directly import finished goods? I don't quite understand the supply line for general industry. If I understand correctly, if @flabiliki had zoned every industrial parcel as forestry (and was collecting and refining enough, etc), those products would have successfully sold locally. But commercial wants more to sell than just planks and paper so they would still complain about not having enough products to sell. Yeah?
@@solidXxXtuna I don't think this game is this complicated in terms of supply lines, and industry in general. I think it works more on the lines of "oh you have GENERAL industry, you need an outside connection to your city to import "raw resources" for industry to function" so if you don't have road / cargo train / cargo planes the game will say "no raw resources"
@@terrabys Oh so the "raw resources" error only means no outside connection. That explains why I never seen that before. I was thinking of generic industry more in terms of Industries dlc but they don't have the supply chain thing in common at all.
solidXxXtuna solidXxXtuna (This is about the base game industry) Generic industry need to import resources if the city doesn't supply it via specialized industry (agriculture, lumber, oil, ore). Since there is no way for the generic industry to import (in this case) or there is traffic problems preventing trucks from supplying generic industry, it will cause the raw resources error. Also, I think that the "outside connections" view will show the the resources a particular building is importing/exporting.
There is a mod on the Steam Workshop that only fully unlocks public transport from the start. I’ve used it for maps like Seenu where there aren’t any outer connections. Name is Unlock Public Transport
I got a Idea.Go on a Big make with spread out resources and have both the industries,Resource Gathering and Towns spread out,with a self imposed size limit for each and only connect them with rail.Dont know if it would be hard or anything but it sure would look interesting.
In policies there's a thing to improve commercial and high tech housing tends to get people happier more tax and there's a new industry 4 for educated citizens and improved industry production
The Tenzing-Hillary Airport in Lukla, Nepal is often rated the most dangerous airport in the world. one problem is the 1729 foot (527 meter) runway that leads off a 2000 foot (607 meter) drop, no nav guides, no night operations, the Airport has an elevation of around 9500 feet (2896 meters) with little descent before landing, and let's not forget that this is Nepal where everywhere is mountains so enjoy dodging mountains. Your airport is downright safe by comparison.
Putting a hospital next to the stadium is pretty smart looking at how much injuries sports players get... I was at my friends house, and there was a Seahawks game on, and someone from one of the teams landed badly and broke his ankle, literally.
Should use the same save from your first challenge on this map for loads of different challenges. So eventually every island will be turned into a city with it's own little gimmicks. Then you could have eventually done a video showing the whole map of when the entire thing is transformed.
Maybe a cargo station on the airport island can solve the raw material problem; they can fly in whatever raw material they need that doesn't exist in these islands.
It's not even that they're getting mugged anymore. The criminals are just standing at the door accepting protection money. The dead body is kept on display as warning if you don't pay for protection.
It's just a head on a spike out front.
Still makes me giggle
*the plot thickens*
"Oh you bought the train ticket from that ticket booth? Nah you gonna buy mine to take the train"
You should use that map to make a regular city
Que tampa?
YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Quite a small map but that's the challenge. Only start wit6h a port and then play the game vanilla

Ahhh koe kkkkkkkk

Do a proper city on that map or any island map!
One thing you really needed was a cargo airport
anyway, great video, keep it up

Again.
Here's a video idea: Only connecting islands via walkways? 🤔
FalloutNewNarwhal.Loopy.Tom I was thinking this. This would be interesting.
And extremely annoying 😂
Dude, we should check out the new Museum on the island nearby...
3 week later.. I'm never doing that again!
Y not use the Cargo airport?
I love it that u can't get to on the train with out getting mugged!
Sounds like a normal day on Rio de Janeiro
It's called a "train fare" ;)
Can you a powlice station next to the train station so you can't get jumped?
Sounds like Moscow in the late 90's.
Legalize guns
Why isn’t there a airport mod for the planes that land on water, this would be perfect for an island airport!
James: It isn't that safe of a runway..
Me: St Helena exists you know..
next up: islands only connected by blimps ;)
Blimps and whataever the skilift things are called.
he should do it!
Inverted Blimp Going mach 50...
I am in unstoppable tears at this almost-literal trashfire city. This was GLORIOUS.
Challenge: No dumping sewage directly into bodies of water. (no cheeky man made reservoirs that have sewage treatment)
The resulting "naturally forming" pooplake is something you have to protect from and district around.
Extra challenge: Poop mountain/sewage volcano
Do you know if you dig a pit and drag your poo outlet over it, will it fill over time and overflow? That would be a full fledged disaster, no DLC required lol

I feel like your humor in this video is really spot-on.
"why don't we flatten out some land and get a stadium out here" ok Gladys Berejiklian
I wanna see James’ neighbours’ reactions after hearing him scream “NO MORE PHALLIC POO!”
with every challenge you should use more of the islands until you finally finish all 23. Then you should do a normal city playtrough.
^ I like this idea...
Then I thought about it and he'd be constantly switching back to old islands to make sure they didn't explode... or not really know if his new challenge city is doing well, because his old challenge stats would still be there.
...Still I like the idea
7:38 “Fine, I’ll get a... *cop shop* in.”
Hmm, yes. I love purchasing my police force.
you could have used a cargo airport to import stuff
Can you make a city where all cars are banned and people are forced to use public transport to get around?
You can with TPME mod. I don't have any good links at hand but it's been done a few times.

Of course building a mass transit system capable of getting the masses around efficiently is a different story.
Here's a cool idea
Ban all personal cars and rely on taxis and public transport to get around
It's nice to know that James forgetting the bin (garbage collection) is something he does across games.
Perhaps another challenge with only air connections between islands? Blimps for passengers, and cargo airports for the freight
You should build on all of those islands ! That would be interesting to see
Do more of this kinda video. I love it
And this just gave me a great idea for a mod or expansion - Garbage barge. Plenty of cities around the world transport garbage via barges towed by tugboats.

Holy crap. Islands in city building games. Something not for the faint-hearted.
That is just awesome they should have this as a scenario

I have a good idea.
Just planes connecting part of the city with another
You need some bike paths next to the rail lines from one island to another
7:36 "WOAH"

This was a lot of fun, just like the other island video.
a way to make money, was shown by biffa. just let everyone walk through a park entrance - and maybe add toll booths. That could help on the next island project using blimps, cable cars and freight planes :)
Ooh I’ll have to try the park idea!
These islands are really fun to build on
You should do a challenge with the disaster risk high! I mean it doesn't have to be all the way up, but periodic enough to make it a challenge.
You seem to be having fun with Cities challenges :) It's cool to see you do something a little different.
i really enjoy the way you make these videos. you're the only youtuber for me that can scratch my itch for c:s challenge maps.
You should have done a one way cargo train line leaving the city to make money from exporting
I didn't expect to watch an old Cities Skylines video today and hear "No more phallic poo," when I logged into TH-cam today, but here we are.

4:15 just imagine if this was on an overflowed river. That’s all I am thinking about
I Love islands city! She's beautiful!
12:45 minecraft villager sound
The bridge connecting airport to train station is glitches and there is a massive visual gap. Still works just visually broke
For a small island do self-sufficient! Self sustaining buildings
If crime rate is 100%, then who gets robbed? The criminals get robbed by other criminals? Everyone is a criminal!
How about aeroplanes/airplanes only challenge between 2 islands?
I guess with RICO you can also add Trains and Airports in Map Editor. That would be more easier and better for economy of course.
Archipelago. Many islands.
Do you have a cargo train terminal by the airport? Then raw materials can fly in. Just like the people
Do the Island challenge but Tramways only.
11:58 that rail station needs a roundabout
Should use the same save from your first challenge on this map for loads of different challenges. So eventually every island will be turned into a city with it's own little gimmicks. Then you could have eventually done a video showing the whole map of when the entire thing is transformed.
Nice video. I burst out laughing looking at the side profile of railline.
13:35 "No more phallic poo" um, ??? lol
I don’t know if you did this already but you should do islands connected by walking paths
13:25 I was thinking a dam with those water cleaners
planet coaster and city skylines should make game together so you can build a theme park in your city
Maybe a cargo station on the airport island can solve the raw material problem; they can fly in whatever raw material they need that doesn't exist in these islands.
Always, problem is upkeep
And sewage
You should do a full series on this map
