Is the PERFECT city layout CIRCULAR in Cities Skylines?

- Engitopia returns in Cities Skylines (City Skyline) as I perfect The Wedge by making it a complete circular city in CS! I basically make a circular version of the dystopian city called NEOM's The Line in Cities Skylines!

"What's better than a slice of pizza? A whole pizza"
Spoken like a true engineer
I just ate pizza
What’s better than a whole pizza?
@@GooserMan 2 pizzas made into a pizza sandwich.
@@pbsixgun6 what about a triple decker pizza?
@@bubbledoubletrouble nah, pizza’s worth more
So the line became the wedge, which evolved into this(the ball?) Two suggestions, maybe two ball cities and a line forming the strongest shape. Also maybe Timberborn version of this would be awesome and interesting.
Don't get ahead of him....
I hate you for planting this terrible idea in his head
What about a full ball with semi sphere on top of the pokeball?
Yes ,this is what engineer do . We don't follow/ copy the concept of The Line blindly like an architect, we make our own modifications to it , the engineering way . This is exacly why I have subscribed to RCE (Matt) for !.
Engineers don’t build The Line as a matter of principle.
@@tonyhakston536 more efficient shapes are too available... like a circle.
Can The Line™ Defend Against a Tsunami?
Good queston
Oof
Add another circle line & an actual line sandwiched between them & I’m sure it would be structurally sound enough to defend against a Tsunami.
No not again
You never know when those pesky desert tsunamis will come to get you
Having worked in various fields of construction for most of my life, my favorite part of watching these videos is imagining what the projects to actually build Matt's ludicrous designs would be like. The sheer level work he does with the landscaping tool gets the Earthmover in me giddy.
All the dick designs too!
Now we need a cities skylines collab between RCE, Josh, and Kibitiz as each of them drives the other nuts with city designs. 😂
Add Biffa to that list 😅
@@johnny56700 Biffa: WHY DOES NOBODY ELSE USE ROUNDABOUTS!!
RCE: look at the pizza city....
Yessssssss... And also Blitz or Spiffing
Excuse me I forgot the Real city planner on YT
_kibitiz_ you say, huh...? (jk, I know he meant imkibitz... also: add ambiguousamphibian to the CS team)
15:22 idea for name : the cheese wheel, because instead of being a wedge (of cheese) it is the whole (cheese) wheel!
goofy name but I think it fits the naming scheme of the city
Found an architect
@@No-cc1fq what makes you think I'm an architect? A name idea for a city?
Fun fact: Sweden, Taiwan, and Iran all have underground airbases IRL. And probably the US, China and Russia do too but they don’t advertise it.
I wonder why they don’t talk about where they keep their nukes 💀💀💀
@@RandomPerson-l9f ICBM silos are all pretty much public knowledge. Even in other countries. You can google that. That’s why mobile launch systems and submarines are employed by all sides. Those can move and are not easily detected by satellites.
Yes we're back to this magnificent city
Wow! The Line™️ is a marvel of engineering - just perfect! Can you see how well it will protect itself from natural disasters? I would love to!
In all seriousness though, the real-life Line concept is flawed in many ways.
2 combined great series
All such dystopian city ideas are.
So engineers have to fix the architects mistakes while contractors have to fix the engineers mistakes lol
Once RCE has finished with Engitopia, I would love to see Biffa try and make this monstrosity (sorry, I meant masterpiece) work.
I love this series, it was the reason for me to subscribe
Reminds me of Belo Horizonte in Brazil (as much as I remember it from 10 years ago when I was there). It's mostly surrounded by mountains and built into the slopes, so the views were kind of similar. No spiral in the middle though, they still have space to improve.
RCE: *creates a (superior) visual pokeball city*
Also RCE: "I'll catch you guys again next time!"
.... IT WAS A TRAP TO CATCH US ALL WITH HIS POKEBALL (city)!
Ok
You should slope up around the the outside of the city and plant trees for terrain stability to prevent erosion.
Said the Inca
@@laidylegs9637 its crazy how many intelligent solutions were crafted by the ancients and forgotten by us modern people.
You know, RCE's ambivalence for architects is always funny to hear. He brings them up so much as if he hates them. But he also acts like an architect in his videos pretty frequently. Anyone else ever get mixed signals about this?
03:58 That mountain looks like a crocodile!
I have an idea for a next video, a city that goes underground with a structure like the dante's inferno. All the circles that goes lower and lower, obviously the last circle shoud be for rhe architects
I love your city skyline series btw, don’t end them!😀
5:46 the subtitles 💀
if you have moveit mod use ctrl + H on the node to make it match the height of the other nodes. also the hump at 10:39 seems to be more than one node so you will have to keep lowering the height. the weird glitching might be because the pillars on top of the quay/raised terrain.
there's a roundabout mod that helps you build things in a circle.
one change you could make is to move the road to be on the river bank. this will prevent the canyon. you can also move the power lines down there too.
Geez, I love this place. Please keep doing this, I'm not an engineer, but whenever I can I build wacky, fun, and functional shit in video games.
Imagine if the spiral was made into circle labyrinth, the amount of traffic in the spiral would look amazing
I love this series so much.
Its so efficient!
I can't wait for Biffa to one day be handed this and told "fix this. if you think you're so good, fix this."
and then we either get a video from him titled "my mental breakdown" or a seven hour rebuild from the ground up
Can't wait for Matt to add another ball and the Line™ to make this city more efficient
what a full grown civil engineer ✨imagination✨ can do
I never thought I'd laugh so much in a video about Cities Skylines 🤣
Im just imagining the hell someone would have to go through every morning going to work in that city, especially if you have to slowly drive uphill in the morning and pray you dont crash on your way down in the evening
Vid idea: Somehow create a torture place [other than Architect hill] for the Architects.
I'm no engineer, but I think a suspended circular park in the middle of the spiral would be cool af. It would give people a reason to actually use the spiral 😂 Or is this idea too architecturey?
What would be cool is a soccer stadium in the middle of that. Everyone would be able to watch the game from their house with binoculars!
@@paoloknight sir I think you mean football ⚽️
@@theundeniedhugo i think theres two ways to say it ⚽
@MysticalKO yeah my point is the other guy is correcting him like the word soccer is wrong
@@blizzit1211 it is wrong
Architects: The line, video showing all the "benefits" and all the fancy terminologies
Engineers: Pokeball
I’ve never seen your content or played this game/simulator… but I must say you had me with the poopcano. If the underpass airport didn’t elicited chuckles, the poop chute certainly did. I suppose that’s more an indicator of my maturity level than the design.
This is the perfect 1:52
you can simulate tubing up a river when you've made terrain that blocks it, by adding water pumps on one side and poop outlets the other
Wait.. he WAS a Real Civil Engineer? What is he now, pray tell? Have I been led astray?
YES! A WEDGE! EVEN MORE SUPERIORITY!
oddly comforting series))
watch them before bed - helps to calm down thoughts about the war ragin in my country))
Coming straight from City Planner Plays to Real Civil Engineer is jarring in the best way possible.
I came straight from a Mark Rober video. Talk about whiplash.
your laugh is like if you took stampylongnose and jimmy carr's laugh then turned the volume down.
I love how this game has actual grid systems and snap points to create perfect circles and geometric shapes and you just choose to say screw it, we’re doing it by eye
Just wait until they add an update that would allow you to make FLOATING ISLANDS that would be so cool!
that spiral in the middle got me humming tool suddenly, love that
spiral out, keep going 😎
Would love to see the biggest circle city he can make! A river starting from the sky, circling around untill it hit the lake or something
14:35 "Its a small truss for a bridge, one gigant leap for bridgekind" - me
I deeply relate to the road in the centre of the city 😂
This channel never fails to give me all the architecting I could possibly want to watch.
U should make another pizza home thing then add a line on the end “the nob”
theres little to no water entering the centre of the pokeball, maybe make a deeper channel of water through that section to get more water and probably add flood walls around the poocano and poonima canal
Gotta say, Engitopia literally has gone through hell and back, but now it turned out great, lmao.
Regarding the Stonehenge tunnel: I was also on the team who worked on the design! And HS2. And a few others. I'm basically partially responsible for messing up half of English countryside and heritage😅
YES! He finally included the "extra landscaping tools" mod!
Its nutty watching from beginning to now im glad i saw first vid on this before being metropolis overload
ENGITOPIAAAA!!!!!!!!
So well design and clearly is the strongest city in the world
This is actually a really neat idea for a fantasy city layout, I'll have to save this for later
Circles are efficient and nice to look at. I built a city that was just several large circles that conjoined with smaller circles. It looked like something out of a sci-fi movie. It was awesome.
I just watched The Wedge video and commented that The Bowel would be be a good sister city. Well, The Wedge became The Bowel. Lol, looks fantastic.
To answer the title of the video: YES. Yes it is.
In fact make all roads single directional and each layer of roads in opposite direction, make the roads between layers single too. You only have merge and split. Vehicles only ever need to slow down to allow pedestrians to cross roads, there is basically no congestion ever. Even when you get to hundreds of thousands of pops, which is a massive town in this game.
Second is tons of bus stops and make public transport free.
Fourth is put residential and commercial districts close to each other, very close actually. This will enable a huge portion of the residents to get jobs that they can walk to. You can also put non-polluting industrial zones (like woodworking) next to residential.
Third is subways, use them, these should connect disparate parts of the town.
This almost eliminates cars completely, which means you can make the city far more dense and far bigger because the infrastructure can very easily support it. IDK if the game simulates it but it alleviates a huge cost of living for people when getting to their jobs is fast and free, they save a huge amount of time and money.
It's also the best way to design cities and towns in real life.
8:09 "That would just be dangerous"
Starting to think he's a Health and Safety officer.
This creativity is exactly why I am subcribed
Every time I watch this series I'm left sitting here like "Engitopia? Did you mean Warcrimeitopia?"
OH MAN I LOVE YOUR VIDEOS!!!! SO ENTERTAINING! I'm playing the game again because of you!🤣
this is the best youtube channel ngl
Note that ressemblance with Plato’s description of the lost city of Atlantis which was located in the Sahara desert’s richtat eye. Where once was not a desert but a luxuriant land with big rivers and where you can clearly see the traces of a huge continental size flood once happened that could have wipe the city off the map.
Only an architect would forget a lake (or poo volcano) in the middle to harvest the power of your circular city designs... perhaps you need channels with small dams around a spiral city?
We need a statue that’s on a really tall mountain so people know it’s the city of engineers. A suggestion is the N I C E shape
As a data engineer, my architect analogue is a data scientist. would love to hear your actual thoughts on the projects you did, however, I'm a nerd. take it for what it is.
10:47 - Move it mod - Select the Node - Press CTRL + H and then align it to the height of something else you might like 🙂
beautiful desing, Mr Real Civil Architect
Every single time he does jump cuts all zoomed in for things he's doing, I fully expect him to zoom out at the end to a very efficient shape XD
I think your on to something here, if they add two circular cities to the end of the line it will make a much more stronger shape
I think the line still has a place in this city. I reckon if you build it from the circle but off to the side and then build a circle on the other side, this can be a very efficient design.
2:18 Just because an architect hurt you in the past, doesn't mean you have to let them live rent free in your head.
We want infra space videos man.
We have been waiting for that video for so long.
thanks so much for doing my idea (I know I wasn't the only one
The wedge is probably the prettiest thing matt has built in cs
i vote to call it the crater or Crater City. on the count that it looks like a crater lol
Did anyone else notice that Matt accidentally implied that all the engineers lived in architects hill… and it was mysteriously allowed to get through editing.
Some editors are about the be sacked...
UR videos are very great! I would add the corner wall for food around the circle to make it more stunning
YES! Back on with the best series
I could definitely see this sort of city in an RPG. I feel like the forest on the top level would be full of high level monsters but you couldnt get there until you unlocked the flying vehicle.
Had you left the water as is after the Poocano, it would've been a pretty neat modern version of Ankh-Morpork, complete with walkable river crust!
yesyesyes! noice! I was scared, that this series was dead.
What's crazy is that I've been watching since even before the stonehenge thing, but I had no idea that you had stopped working as an engineer.
So glad he came back to Engitopia
Just died reading I.P.P.P, dont ask why 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Might I suggest a shape that many neglect? Perhaps the shape that will "shape" the future >.> Have you considered a hexagon city? Perhaps made of hexagons, perhaps just a hexagon
“One-hundred fourteen” it clearly says “one-hundred FORTY-FOUR
As a construction worker for 20 years. I really like the architects island, can't count the times i have needed a place like that😂😂😂
Sometimes you can just tell that his next video will be about dealing with more poocano problems.
"Yeah, honestly it sounds like a perfect place to live, I'd like to go as soon as possible, but... you said it's *downriver* from *what?*"
0:40 "World's first underground airport" shouldn't that be the "World's first underpass airport"? next he needs to build a dock beside it under Bridgetopia to complete his underpass ports.
You got that mountain behind the ball and the poo-cano. I think they should be connected by a giant Sydney harbor bridge. Now that is an engineering feat
I've got an idea (I know what you're thinking: "He's got an idea again! Run for the hills!" but bear with me for a moment)... so, like, make the circle as you did, right... but make two (nudge nudge wink wink) this time: one is like the "wedge-pokébal" - a funnel or a hopper-shaped thing (like an open-pit mine, kinda)... and the other one is like a wedding cake - opposite to the funnel, basically (but the same exact dimensions and layout, though)... and then like have the two cities compete or whatever... I know, it's a really stupid idea (and you won't read this comment, anyway, either, or do the idea - but if you do, no need to credit me or anything, 'kay?)
"oh no, a hump! How do I get rid of this?"
seconds later: "oh it's made a hump, I quite like that"
I'd be tempted to call it the Colossuseum maybe, definitely reminiscent of a coliseum but on crack! Or perhaps 'Paddy's food bowl'... or 'city where the pee is stored'. Either way, cheers for the content 👌 cuddles for Paddy ☺️
With the mod 'move it' you can put a node (the joint between the segments of the streets, ...) at the same height of another node. In this way you can put an entire street, with multiple joints, all at the same height
Day 36:Dear Matt,
I have a very good video idea
Gather all your editors and make them all have a fight on like a PvP game (e.g. Minecraft,Rust,Ect,ect...) And see who is the best editor and is worthy of the rank of a classified engineering. From me.
A high density self sufficient area makes a lot of sense, just not in a line. Glad you're trying different shapes.
