You know, planners live in that uncomfortable place between architects and engineers... I think you can see it a bit in Verde Beach, haha! Great video! Loved seeing that myth of the cownato tested in VB!!
It would be so cool if you guys could make a collaboration! We would all love it! And Phil, after seeing your city in this video I am going to catch up on Verde Beach and take it where I left it some months ago! Your videos are awesome!
There's actually a preset disaster scenario based on this in the Scenarios tab in-game. Yes, it destroys the dam, and your city. The scenario is quite difficult to beat.
Not sure what was stranger... the tornado hopping over the wall, or the blimp going underwater. I really don't understand why the game would require the latter, so I'll call the blimp the stranger of the two.
It truly is the team-up we need, but not the team-up we deserve (because we probably don't deserve a team-up that amazing). I wonder if both of their mothers are named "Martha?"
I don't know... maybe the building lake would be a great place to show off your engineering prowess by making sure that 1, the "windows" are strong enough to keep the water in, 2, that you have enough oxygenation of the water to keep the plants and sealife alive. I'm pretty sure there'd be enough people who wouldn't mind living in an aquarium, especially young children.
tornado cows sounds like decent burger joint. and i love cows too! especially in between bread with their best mates the piggies. Jesting aside, like majority of domesticated animals cows are fantastic companions (if you do not try to poke them to make them mad like toreadors) they seem to be very keen on getting scratched if you are near smaller farms because farmers there tend to be more attentive to their smaller heards - giving the cows much higher chance of thinking humans are nice.
I think the way blimps work is there a little bit of geometry underneath them (most likely a very skinny and tall cube), and that dictates how high they are above the ground. If they go over a bit of higher ground, the cube will collide with the landscape, and the blimp will raise, and if it flies over a low bit, the cube will fall at a set speed until it collides with the ground. So the blimp can’t collide with the ground, because you can’t have overhangs in your level geometry. This would also explain why blimps can collide with some get things, such as other blimps and buildings, since this invisible cube can’t collide with those.
Looking forward to @CityPlannerPlays, reaction to this, I think is his all vanilla and DLC build. You noticing all those lumps and bumps are going to get to him. He has a problem as he states "letting perfect be the enemy of good". We will have to see if we can get him to name a bridge after RCE in one of his builds and you can have a bridge review of it.
Hey I recently found your videos and I am addicted I have been on a binge watch this week I really enjoy your city skylines content. Btw for your sky City If you don't want cars driven. Go into city regulation and make it bike only city. Ban all cars😅 😅
Concerning the Lake Buildings. Be very interesting to use a river to feed the catch and not an independent water source?! Engineering challenge - How to fill, maintain max cap, and have a run off for the Building Bath Lake without a water source in the middle? Expert level - the water is cleaned water from PooCano.
Children still drive cars. I’ve seen it myself! Little bob decided he wanted to go to Disney world in my city. IN A VAN!? HE OWNED IT! So yes, children can drive.
Matt, please, I beg you, find out if a collab of some kind with City Planner Plays would be viable. I know it can’t always be done for various reasons, but the interaction between two real professionals in a city builder of some kind would be amazing
The school you can't walk to is my junior high school. It was out in the at the border of the town where it was nothing but farms. I never understood why the JHS wasn't in town.
I think the driving forever on a circle road may of worked if you deleted the right had turn lane, I feel that is what caused the cars to despawn due to no road path to continue.
When Matt said “gonna get your moneys worth because this is two myths in one” my first thought was “haha I don’t pay to watch this, you’re silly Matt.” Then I remembered I’m a patreon haha
A few things, if no one has mentioned them yet. As you've discovered, students teleport to schools. This will be the case even if the school is isolated on a piece of road that doesn't connect to anything else. You've also discovered that the game's matchmaking algorithm leaves much to be desired. Rather than considering distance, CSL just draws upon an available resource, so that's why fire trucks come across town and the nearby station is inactive. There are multiple mods that address this deficiency in similar yet competing ways. Vehicles disappear as soon as their path breaks.
From what I remember, elementary schools are the only ones that don't generate traffic - children just teleport to them. I could be mistaken, but not even the distance matters. Students even outside of its range will use it if it has vacant slots. That being said, pretty sure high schools and universities to generate traffic - so repeat the myth with those
Hello Matt, I have another interesting myth for Myth Busting. I've found that in cities' skylines, ferries can drive through a steep canal (with a gradient of about 45 degrees). So Im questioning whether is it possible that ships can drive vertically. In Addition I really like this idea to use Skyscrapers for building a pool. This could be the biggest fish tank the world has ever seen!
Poocano: short term, turn off extra sewage outlets. Your population died off a ton so you don’t need that many, which will temporarily stop the overflow. Long term, you’ll need a second outlet to the poocano in case you ever need to turn the other outlets back on
The lake skyscraper reminds me of a dream I one time had about a tall bridge that was all european style housing but really tall and it forked into 2 bridges with a giant swimming pool in it
The multi-level aquarium inside the building: "that's something an architect would do". Actually, that's something an architect DID do! Or have you forgotten about the hotel fish tank disaster in Berlin just a little while ago? hahaha! It was designed like an architect and failed like an architect too...
Excellent educational video. As usual. Thanks! I am just slightly sad that we didn't get to see if the pigs and cows get turned into rain as the tornado subsides. :D
Imagine you're living in a nice city that feels like a big roundabout (RCE designed) and it has the name of "Testibal Street". One day, you ended up using Google Map out of curiosity on the city arrangement and you see *this*
You have to make an intro for this series! Like: in the world we live in, with so much misinformation (spread by arcitects) we need to know: is it true or false? approved or busted? Lets call, the engimythbusters!
Hey, *Matt!* Just a friendly reminder to thank an architect every day for the house you live in! And remember, Engitopia is a hidden dystopia of pure functionality where people are tortured for their occupations. A society like that is *doomed to fail.* 😊
"I feel like this i something that architects would actually do. Everyone wants a sea view, now you can have a sea view" As a student of architecture, yes, yes that is what I was thinking when you did that.
if you try the looping road again, you should make it so they can only go straight, as the cars disappeared as they pulled into the turning lane. After making it go straight, try the myth again
RCE: "You can make a lake out of buildings" Me: "oooh! That would be really cool if in the middle it had an aquari-" RCE: "And freaking architects would love this" Me: "Yeah, totally lame, who would do something like that? Not me...."
A PS5-Tower ring with a poop lake sounds like a great idea if you need more living space for architects. Just imagine what happens when one of the opens the wrong window
ooh, new myth. you can use timed traffic lights to prevent a bus depot from dumping dozens of new buses all in one go. Only allow 3 seconds of exits every 3 minutes?
somwhere around 200000 , after that game just starts to delete vehicles/residents(pedestrians) for performance reasons , becouse simulation cant handle more than that. P.S. those cities with way bigger population are usually made with infinite demand mod.
@@tomasbotka561 Yeah, this is notorious for breaking very large cities. After you have enough actors (which includes everything that moves, such as vehicles and people) the game will refuse to spawn any more, so it won't spawn vital city services such as garbage or police.
Wow, I didn't know the buildings in Cities Skylines had collision meshes. I don't see why they would need to, besides doing crazy stuff that was never intended in the game
For the looping road you have to disable despawn in TMPE, otherwise vehicle will automatically despawn if they have no possible destination. Myth to be recheck in my opinion xD
Myth: Can Toll gates extend the distance that cars will travel down a suuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuper loooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooong road? 9:59 - myth disrupted. The turn lane appears to be eating cars cause it's a disconnected junction.
A lake using skyscrapers? What a whole new level of _-architecture-_ *engineering* you got here
*_you have become the very thing you swore to destroy_*
Maybe he can fix his poocano problem by making a ring of skyscrapers on top for the architects to live in and watch their internal view turn to shit
Archineering?
@@TheMooProphet you don't cross the streams!
Actually , it is made so skyscrapers can harvest rainwater
The tornado bunny hop was definitely unexpected and absolutely hilarious lol
I honestly thought it was a photoshopped for a bit until I remembered that the game isnt a realistic physics simulation
It happened in a previous video but apparently nobody remembered but me. lol
The tornado *what*
The tornado *what*
I laughed audibly at that moment
You know, planners live in that uncomfortable place between architects and engineers... I think you can see it a bit in Verde Beach, haha!
Great video! Loved seeing that myth of the cownato tested in VB!!
Love your videos, man!
Currently catching up on Verde Beach and loving it! 😄👍
@@mystishio Thank you so much! Glad you're enjoying them!
gotta fix that lump in the railway, phil! not the height of realism, to be honest.
It would be so cool if you guys could make a collaboration! We would all love it!
And Phil, after seeing your city in this video I am going to catch up on Verde Beach and take it where I left it some months ago! Your videos are awesome!
I was hoping you'd watch this Phill 😀
A lake using skyscrapers
That's the most architect idea an engineer has ever executed
At what point does a water column in the center of a skyscraper stop being an aquarium and start being a lake?
@@polygondwanaland8390 At the point where Matt does it
@@polygondwanaland8390 You should ask the people of Berlin
@@polygondwanaland8390 I don’t think it ever does, it’s just a lagoon tank

tbh would love to see a Cities: Skylines collab with RCE and City Planner Plays. Would be great to hear his thoughts on your efficient city design.
I see a Cities Planners Plays’ comment right under yours.
His sheer anger at architects set the building on fire.
have you ever tried to make a meteor hit the dam? would it break the dam and cause a tsunami of water to destroy the city?
And a meteor to the skyscraper lake?
dams can be destroyed, there will being a wave and an influx of water. also a crator
@@duckman123sixtwoohsix will it destroy the entire dam or just the bit the meteor hits?
There's actually a preset disaster scenario based on this in the Scenarios tab in-game. Yes, it destroys the dam, and your city. The scenario is quite difficult to beat.
@@tigrecito48 I’ve tried it before and I targeted the area that sucks in the water. It destroyed that area, but the rest of the dam was intact.
Not sure what was stranger... the tornado hopping over the wall, or the blimp going underwater. I really don't understand why the game would require the latter, so I'll call the blimp the stranger of the two.
The strangest, though, was definitely the pigs and cows being sucked up by the tornado. LOL
@@jacksonstarky8288 The question is, does the tornado put the cows and pigs back down? 🤔
Oh, a use for skyscrapers other than human warehousing 😂
Matt, at 10:00 you need to turn off the traffic delete in tmpe traffic mod
Or remove the signs forcing the cars to turn
@@avex13 hilarious!
Disabling despawning won't stop despawning if a vehicle's destination is no longer reachable
The cars will still delete if they can't reach their destination
@@ciaran2679 oh, so do what @Alejandro Suárez Mascareñdo says
It would be cool if you reviewed Verde Beach from an engineer's perspective, maybe even vice-versa, Phil can review your lovely city too.
It is a good idea
RCE and CPP the crossover of the ages
It truly is the team-up we need, but not the team-up we deserve (because we probably don't deserve a team-up that amazing). I wonder if both of their mothers are named "Martha?"
Cpp?
@@matthewcharles9813 City Planner Plays
Not exactly sure why but my brain read that as CCP, as in Chinese Comunist Party. And I thought; weird request but sure. hahaha 🤦♀️
The crossover between you and CPP isn’t what I was planning today but I’m happy about it
Myth: You can fix the Poocano by removing water spawners from the map.
im pretty sure it won’t work cus it’s constantly producing water from sewage
Or setting a water spawner to a lower level, so it becomes a water despawner. Will it despawn poo water, or only regular water?
@@drekfletch if it despawn only regular water he could put those water purifier thingy
I don't know... maybe the building lake would be a great place to show off your engineering prowess by making sure that 1, the "windows" are strong enough to keep the water in, 2, that you have enough oxygenation of the water to keep the plants and sealife alive.

8 months and 2 likes D:
@@Glorkenborp I know I'm a nobody who gets few, if any, likes. No need to rub it in my face.
Yes, so long as you actually properly maintain it...
For a moment I wasn’t expecting the tornado to pick up the cows. But once the pigs started going I lost it and laughed so hard
I'm sure CPP will see what have you done to his build. He will not forget it.
we can only hope... lol
"Everyone wants a Sea-View" followed by "Spillage" is the most accurate transition of issues from Architects to Engineers. lol
tornado cows sounds like decent burger joint.
and i love cows too! especially in between bread with their best mates the piggies.
Jesting aside, like majority of domesticated animals cows are fantastic companions (if you do not try to poke them to make them mad like toreadors) they seem to be very keen on getting scratched if you are near smaller farms because farmers there tend to be more attentive to their smaller heards - giving the cows much higher chance of thinking humans are nice.
CPP and RCE - the crossover we never knew we needed
Remember that one scene from the movie "twister" there's your cow nado.
Also I agree with using the ps5 building to expand the capacity on the poocano
I think the way blimps work is there a little bit of geometry underneath them (most likely a very skinny and tall cube), and that dictates how high they are above the ground. If they go over a bit of higher ground, the cube will collide with the landscape, and the blimp will raise, and if it flies over a low bit, the cube will fall at a set speed until it collides with the ground.
So the blimp can’t collide with the ground, because you can’t have overhangs in your level geometry. This would also explain why blimps can collide with some get things, such as other blimps and buildings, since this invisible cube can’t collide with those.

Before the tornado, there was a man... a man crossing the cow field... He has some secrets for sure!

The theater has a MAGNIFICENT design. Roofs atop more roofs just makes sense.

Summon @CityPlannerPlays ! This is a colab we need!!!!!!!
10:04
For the looping around myth, try using traffic manager and turn off despawning. Then you'll get cars going in a loop forever.
If they can't reach their destination anymore they'll still de-spawn
14:40 Loving the background song. WTF1 meme review background song. Just as Matt (also haha) and Daniel left wtf1 and it will never be the same.
Children still drive cars. I’ve seen it myself! Little bob decided he wanted to go to Disney world in my city. IN A VAN!? HE OWNED IT! So yes, children can drive.

Myth: You can stop the tsunami by digging a hole to the bottom of the map and filling it with the mega drainers.
A double roof allowing for airflow between the 2 roofs thus cooling the structure naturally. Sounds like something an engineer wouldn't understand.
Make the skyscrapers hotels, and fill the lake with tropical fish, and a reef. Now that’s a perfect hotel idea.
