Cities: Skylines II Development Diary #3: Public & Cargo Transportation

3 years ago by Mermitian to c/citiesskylines

Hi everyone! Welcome back to another Cities: Skylines II development diary. Today we are taking a look at the public and cargo transportation options available for you when you build that dream city of yours! An integral part of a city’s inner...

Here's a thought that just came to me (may not be possible but if it is it would be insane) - So we can add waypoints to lines so the vehicles go a certain route without adding a station. One thing that always bothered me was that at terminal stations you always have to use one platform. But what if you had a siding, set a waypoint there and the vehicle stopped at one terminal platform, used the siding to reverse back into the other one and goes on its way. Its something I've always wanted. Thanks for coming to my TED talk

They're talking about intercity stuff. Did I miss something or will we be able to manage regions with different cities?

The biggest thing I'm thinking about is how a regional map would work. I do know that SimCity 4 did it successfully, but the lack of explicit showcasing of such a feature for CS2 has me skeptical they have one.

I'm expecting that intercity connections will purely be based on existing save files. But, I would welcome being proven wrong if they end up showcasing a regional map!

It looks like you are correct

Colossal Order answering that the outside connections are similar to how it worked in the original Cities: Skylines

That's a fair argument, though the feature could be saved for a later showcase!

Last week they briefly showed that you can connect roads (at least highways), rail and air to the map borders! I think it was in the video, and not in the blog post itself. I’ll look up the picture

I remember that too, but I'm hyped to see the full extent of what we'll do with this mechanic!

It's probably just your city as one entity and the rest of the world as the other one.

I wouldn't, that's just where the bot dumps/mirrors r/citiesskylines no? Says there's two active users a week

Oh! I didn’t realize it was a mirror/bot community, but you’re right! Then it’s probably not even possible to post

lemmit.online is supposed to be a mirror of reddit, I doubt that it is possible to post there

Yup! I didn’t realize that lemmit.online as a whole is a reddit to lemmy interface. And it’s indeed impossible to post there, only their bot can
