    "Avon" is celtic for "river". When the romans came in and started drawing maps, they'd point to a river and ask the locals, "What's it called?" and of course they answered, "That's a river."
    And thus, there are at least 10 rivers in the UK named "River Avon"

    • @SubjectiveObserver
      @SubjectiveObserver 8 หลายเดือนก่อน +576

      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.

      While there is no actual mixed zoning, the closest thing is commercial at the main arteries and residential in the area behind it. With footpaths leading into the residential area. That way every house has at least some commercial in walking distance and goods for the commercial areas don't have to drive through residential.
      Industrial is a bit further away, but a good public transport network means people don't need to drive and can just take the bus. (Or the tram that goes on dedicated lanes along the arteries)

      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.

    One thing not mentioned often about Bath is that it is insanely hilly. Get this, Bath is one of the biggest rugby teams in the UK, they can't build a stadium the size of the club's stature because there isn't a large enough flat space near the city. No flat space big enough just for a rugby pitch and some stands.

    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.

      @@eldritch3465 Randomly laid out roads will not take you to your destination faster than a grid, on average. That would imply that walking a zig zag is more efficient than walking a straight line. You can still lay out a pseudo grid system in hilly terrain. My town is in Missouri, which is 100 percent hills. We have grids where it makes sense. It's perfectly walkable. You can walk to any place of import in 30 minutes from the town border. What you're identifying is big city style grids that are generally much larger than small city grids. A small grid city is the apex design.
      Having a highway offramp onto the main strip where every business is located, keeps all the truck traffic out of residential areas, and keeps walking distances down. This is the only kind of city that should exist IMO. Every other design is wasting energy and endangering pedestrians. You can easily preserve historical sites. A grid doesn't have to be perfect. It can be designed to account for historical sites. My suggestion would be to make a strip for the businesses of your town to move to, that is connected directly to the highway, located at the edge of town. Then, on the other side of it, away from the existing town, will be where all future residential areas will be laid out in as best a grid as possible. Obviously if the city is too big then this won't be as reasonable a solution. Optimal size is under 50k residents IMO. If your town is too big, the answer is to simply make another town nearby, and lay it out with a strip. People will naturally migrate to towns that are more convenient to live in. Now that remote work is becoming a thing people desire small, efficient cities. And we should facilitate that transition as best we can.

      Everything from the North has to go around that square just outside the city centre and I was just passing through trying to get to Glastonbury Festival. It never got a proper ring road like most places. Even York & Chester have ring roads.

    There was this app, which I can't remember its name, with which you can make a window stay on top and set its transparency level. At around 2:10 you could have done pixel perfect version of the river, _hopefully_. It's a chance missed, and I'd like to state that. Thank you for reading and thank you for the video Real Civil Engineer.

      Paradox is actually based in Sweden, so they should know how European architecture looks like

    • @Simoxs7
      @Simoxs7 5 หลายเดือนก่อน

      @@fjuvo TBH European is also a bit to large of a group, we have quite distinctive architecture, just here in Germany I could probably immediately tell if I was in southern or northern Germany based on the architecture. The whole Mediterranean again has its own style of architecture and sweden for example has their distinctive red paint. But with the approach of paradox it feels like they just removed the Highrisers and Advertisements and called it a day…
      I mean if they wanted true European city building they’d probably also have to use a completely different zoning system if I remember correctly the current zoning is heavily inspired by the American zoning.

    As understand it the developers just admitted that they themselves believe the game was released in a shoddy state. That being the case, it would seem a wiser/fairer course of action not to entice others to buy the game. But you can do as you please. I suppose.

    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
