Very happy to finally see traffic manager in CS2. It should have been a part of the base game. At worst it should have had priority roads. The game was released way way way to early (despite taking YEARS to develop)The lack of variety in the asset design (most buildings look the same with very little variation) map editor is pathetic. Hope is all we have right now. Hope that CS2 will become what we all expected when the game released.
Just a remark: the intersection setup shown in the video can be created in *vanilla CS2* . - You *don't* need the Traffic mod. You can create the supernode and lane layout like Chris did, achieving the exact same lane connection results by using the vanilla CS2 no-turn signs. - you *don't* need the Traffic Lights Enhancement mod. CS2 will give you split traffic light phases here. I'm writing this because I've seen so many cities of players who lost the overview of lane connectors and lane changing options, inadvertently forcing vehicles into long detours. Happened to me, too. Many times it's better to do your lane mathematics. The various asymmetric roads provided in CS2 make this much easier than it was in CS1. Keep it simple.
1:12:50 for all the flaws CS2 has. It still handles dynamic road looks perfectly. I fell like you could never have made something like that look as good in CS1. Probably have strange assets clashing all over it with CS1 but 2 that understands what you want and just does it.
I really wish they'd given us a tool to draw zoning grids manually. The road tools are great but they'd be so much better with a bit more development. The automatic zoning just isn't worth the trouble at the end of the day. It's mathematical complex and incredibly hard to make intuitive. It would take slightly longer to draw them by hand, but at the end of the day I'd prefer that to wasting time redrawing square roads over and over until the game decides to let the blocks face the correct street. I know we'll probably just settle for move-it in the end but i wish this aspect of the game had been redesigned. Grid zoning is based on Sim City, a game that's older than half the people who made this one. I think it's about time we let it become a legacy feature.
Was a gppd watch. Just have to dump this timestamp down to express how many of us feel 48:35, you comment right there. Keep doing what you do Sir, we enjoy it if it is Skylines 1, Skylines 2, playing with your beavers, being a communist or even going to the farthest frontier ( hope you like thos references )
The intersection you ultimately created (at around 1h 13m) is actually completely achievable without the new Traffic mod, just relying on the in game turning restriction options.
Former Hoosier viewer here, rooting for the Pacers! It's only because I love your content so much that I don't unsub. ;) (Kidding, of course!) Very cool stream. I actually really enjoyed this, watching you experiment with mods. It was neat seeing you find things and details that would probably never occur to me. Also, while I really enjoyed your Manor Lords run and seeing you try new games and will enjoy it just as much if you try other games too, I won't deny I'm looking forward to the next Magnolia County. I love the narratives you build into your videos.
At 11:23 you mention Paradox is faced with having to dig themselves out of bad PR, and you're not wrong ... but I would point out they've had a number of tragic releases, and even some bad decisions on their part, over the last few years. I hope they get it together, and Colossal Order can figure out how to get the Cities Skylines 2 ship righted.
In Milwaukee, the 794 service interchange with Oklahoma ave (about 2 miles north of General Mitchell Airport is an almost perfect example of this interchange,
General cs2 question, but has anyone else experienced the random squared screen distortions in the left corner when using the road tool since the last update? Can’t figure out how to make them disappear and it’s driving me crazy 😢. As usual, love the content cpp!
crashes with Move It happen rather rarely on my end with approx. 50 mods activated. And most if not all of the crashes happened when I had anything other activated when clicking Move It.
My SLII is currently unplayable. Apparently broken by mods? couldn't seem to tell Skylines that I wanted to play vanilla, so uninstalled and reinstalled, stiill broken. One symptom is placed assets are not visible.
thanks alot just quick one I found out Traffic Mod does not save my changes I did on lines. I mean if I restart the game some or all the juctions back to vanilla mod. any advice. Btw all my mods are compatible and no error messages I receive
Guys, my city only have medium or hight density residential demand, so i cant build suburb xd. Can anyone help me? i have population mod but i think it not the reason.
48:24 slip lanes 56:16 add a 2 lane piece there as a decel piece 59:34 nvm Im happy. But have a slip lane to join the highway 1:05:35 Nvm p2 now im happy 1:22:45 can you use surface painter there
Not sure what you mean by surface painter at that time stamp. I used a few surfaces throughout the map. A few beaches and some concrete in the interchanges.
Def do CPP Victoria British Columbia redux. Maybe create the fictional story or take historical events but build the city right. Maybe even in conjuction w Ponderosa where he adds a historical event or build, like the kids train and CPP has to integrate. @ponderosa as a GIS Specialist who maintains the street centerline, zipcpdes,etc the GIS work in CS2 is impressive. The time to essentially digitize everything makes this map nerds heart smile! BRAVO!
Thanks! I'm actually working on a video with a brief history of Victoria and some rationale for the features and infrastructure in the map. I have a script written but lost my voice earlier in the week and haven't been able to record it yet. I'll hopefully get it done in the next couple of weeks.
I was searching for a video on traffic lights mods, saw your face and thought "I don't know this guy". Then I kept listening as I went back to CS2. Suddenly I thought "Has the video skipped to a CPP video?" You look very different to my imagined image of you. 😂 How do you remove traffic lights? NVM. It's right click.

1. Try the Jackdaniels CokeCola or the Absolute vodka Sprite next time... just to show that its not randomly picked. 2. its a little late.. but i've been listening to Velvethead.. and their instrumentals are equally good... so if its good tunes for your channel.
You would not have used it I guess but I miss the old bit traffic light enhancement had, it would let you change direction of each lane manually and it sorted out so many traffic issues but now traffic is out they removed that part. Edit: I could have moved the lines all along? :o Edit 2: ok this is addictive someone pls come uninstall this mod from my pc 🤣
I load up SC2 once a week to try mods and play for a bit was super happy to see the lane management tool. I had a few streets that really needed that to function correctly, and I am so happy how easy it is to use. The traffic AI even figured out the new setup right away and really helped my traffic flow. The road and traffic in this game really has to be a standout feature since launch. Even in CS1 I never played with traffic lights, I was not interested in that much micromanagement, but I'll have to give the traffic lights a try too.
I can’t wait to make more advance bus and light rail dedicated lanes with this tool… but I still have to wait months before I can get to my computer. I am playing this game vicariously through you! lol

Thanks for checking out the map! It was an honor. I appreciate all the love from everyone in the chat!
Excellent work and it was a pleasure!
Modders to the rescue once again. CO and PDX should be so thankful to these talented people. Great to see my favorite mod in CS2.

whats wrong with the map editor?
well except for lacking better tree tools
and more & better textures
and easier better looking ways to make cliffs
It will become better. The real sad part Is they rely on the community and (mostly) unpaid work to do it instead of just doing it themselves.

Ahh so glad to see you mess around with these mods. I'm pretty cautious when mods are so young but I look forward to seeing how Traffic evolves!
You blew my mind with the super node!! that fixed a lot of issues I had... Thanks I love your channel

Face reveal!!! I didn’t know what to expect! This has been a great stream :)
Sweet shirt dude. ❤

Lane management should be in the base game - period.

As usual, love the content cpp!
That is the coolest Shirt I have ever seen! May I please know where you got it!
I think it's from Chubbies! They have a lot of cool patterns 😎
traffic mod starts at 40:20
crashes with Move It happen rather rarely on my end with approx. 50 mods activated. And most if not all of the crashes happened when I had anything other activated when clicking Move It.
I have a similar dilemma. When playing cities skyline 2 the game crashes and returns to the windows home. Any suggestions on how to fix the problem
Love the shirt! I have a closet full of Hawaiian shirts and would love to know where you get it.
12:09 i think paradox is under bis preasure...
The with prison architect. Deleyed Till September (from march via may) to miss the cs2 Desaster
Best city builders game
I have had issues with Moveit crashing the game. Hey it will get better. Even the CS1 version was buggy when first released
My SLII is currently unplayable. Apparently broken by mods? couldn't seem to tell Skylines that I wanted to play vanilla, so uninstalled and reinstalled, stiill broken. One symptom is placed assets are not visible.
move it like 50/50 crashes my game
every time i use move it i make sure to save before
First time seeing the face to the voice. That doesn't fit even a little bit 😂
Man idk why but I always pictured a clean cut 1950s looking white dude lmfao
@@wick7179 Me too. Now I understand the song 5:00 in ....CPP's got soul 🎷
thanks alot just quick one I found out Traffic Mod does not save my changes I did on lines. I mean if I restart the game some or all the juctions back to vanilla mod. any advice. Btw all my mods are compatible and no error messages I receive
What are unsafe connections?
I installed th emmod but the icons dont appear :(
What mods do you find crash the game?
Where is the new episode of Magnolia
1:05:00 that intersection that has no turns right in the middle is a huge mistake, Turn evergreen highway into a bridge instead.
I like your voice😂❤
Guys, my city only have medium or hight density residential demand, so i cant build suburb xd. Can anyone help me? i have population mod but i think it not the reason.
Move it has crashed my game more than once. I am scared to use it now
clearwater county>
Team coke
What's the point? The game doesn't even have traffic. CS1 has more traffic problems in the first 40 minutes than CS2 does after 20 hours.
Hi, i wasnt bothered to watch this lol, sorry. Dont have time. I was just wondering like what TM:PE is?
Bruh
Didn't play CS1? It's Traffic manager:President edition
ack! Stream. Your egular stuff is scatter brained enough.
The melody that begins at 5:00 min into this video should be the CPP anthem! It's soulful 🎷
My game crashes now
48:24 slip lanes
56:16 add a 2 lane piece there as a decel piece
59:34 nvm Im happy. But have a slip lane to join the highway
1:05:35 Nvm p2 now im happy

So, it looks like mods have a good chance of saving Cities Skylines... Again!
@1:01:12. Time for that custom median with road builder!
anyone know if there is a standalone download for this mod?

I'll take that as a compliment 😅

I can't wait to buy CS2 on the black Friday sale!
Lane connectors, finally!! I don't understand why these weren't in the base game, but at least the modders have us covered.
Because CO can't code for shit.
48:30 you can have it green all the time with the Traffic Replacer mod
I'm digging the shirt.
