Steam Workshop::Cape Cod

this game is driving me crazy because god i wish road builder worked on cs1. i tried downloading it but it doesnt work (mod or dependency failed w/ adaptive networks emergency fix), and also needs adaptive networks which looks like its on life support and i dont want to put a bunch of outdated mods in my save.

ive mostly been using "next2 inspired road pack" because i thought they looked much less ugly than the vanilla roads, and i especially like using the next2 national road pack to create less bulky undivided highways because not all highways irl are six lane divided roads. the screenshots i attached are a mix of vanilla and next2 roads and are my best attempt at creating some semi-realistic suburban areas, but they are still so ugly and non-functional that its just driving me crazy.

as much as i like the look of the next2 roads they just dont have all the roads that i actually need. plus i absolutely cant stand these horrifically ugly giant medians on every large road.

so is there a way to make road builder work, or is there a road pack that has a good variety of north american streets, roads, divided and undivided highways and alleys that match and wont look ugly together. i really want to like this game and cs2 isnt an option for me, so id really appreciate any advice, thanks!!

I have made so many posts in the subreddit within a week

Some of you might remember Copaste from my post a while back..
It's a copy & paste tool: select props, trees, decals and surfaces, copy them, stamp them anywhere, save groups as blueprints and reuse them in any city.

The 1.1.0 update was the big one I've been grinding on. Buildings are now part of the toolkit. You can move, rotate, copy, paste and delete whole buildings, and their driveways, pavements and props travel along like one piece. My favorite part is the Relocate mode on Tab, where the building follows your cursor and snaps to the road like normal plopping. There are also selection filters, painted surfaces support and full redo now.

Before anyone asks about saves: the mod writes only the game's own components and stores nothing in your save file. Your city loads the same with or without it.

Transparency: this mod is built with heavy use of AI (Claude Fable). Every feature goes through dozens of iterations that I direct, review and hand test in the game before anything ships.

I read every report and every log people send me, so if something breaks, tell me. And I'd be grateful to anyone who gives it a try and shares feedback ... thanks !

it's all normal during the day but at night it's like this

Add an art trail to your city with works from some of the world's most prestigious galleries and museums. These concrete benches features six functional seating locations (three on each side) and a double-sided poster which will display selected artworks from the Guggenheim Museum, National Gallery of Victoria, Rijksmuseum, Tate Modern, and Tokyo National Museum.

Inspired by benches distributed across the King's Cross Estate in London, UK, there are 20 artworks from each museum included. Each museum's collection has a dedicated prop, located in the Park Props menu, so you can curate a selection according to your tastes.

Why is it spinning like this

[SOLVED!] Needed to tweak the axis center

I kept noticing little things I wanted to fix or come back to later in my CS2 cities, but once I moved on to another part of the map, I’d often forget about them...

I'd see a junction I wanted to redo, notice some odd bit of road, or think “yeah, I'll come back to that later.”

Then I'd wander off, spend half an hour building somewhere else and completely forget where it was. 😅

So I made Planboard.

It's basically a to do list that lives with your city.

📍You can just jot something down, or stick it to an actual place on the map. A road, building, district, or just a spot on the ground. Then when you come back later, you know what you meant to do and where you meant to do it.

Right now you can:

• Add issues, notes and ideas
• Pin them to roads, buildings, districts or anywhere on the map
• Mark what you're doing, what matters most, and when you want to get back to it
• Search and sort through everything later
• Keep pins as small icons or open them up as sticky notes

I just released this to public, so this is exactly the point where I'd love people to poke holes in it.

If something feels odd, takes too many clicks, breaks, or you find yourself thinking “why can't I just do this?”, let me know.

I'm making it because I want it in my own cities too, so good ideas have a decent chance of ending up in the mod. 🙂

Small note on how it was built: I did use AI coding tools quite a bit. I’m not a stranger to coding or data structures though. I can read code quite a bit, so I’m still the one steering it, testing it, debugging it, and deciding what actually ships.

Hopefully it saves a few junctions from being forgotten forever. 😄

Currently I'm working on a detailed map for my city The Hague in the Netherlands. When it's finished I will share it. But I also want some realistic buildings which you can find in The Hague. I started with simple appartments on the Erasmusweg which you can find here: 857 Erasmusweg - Google Maps. I want to create this middle block and a left and a right block which differs a bit from the middle piece. Any ideas or comments are welcome to help me create it as realistic as possible.

In real life almost all major cities rely on transfer stations to move garbage quicker.

What is a transfer station; a transfer station is a large building where garbage trucks unload their cargo. The garbage is then manipulated into a semi truck. Each semi truck can haul 4-6 standard garbage trucks worth - per load. The semi truck, then pulls the garbage to the landfill.

Why a transfer station; landfills are primarily built further from the city center. In some counties, the landfill can be up to hours away. A transfer station can be built, relatively close to a city center as they are often enclosed buildings, thus minimizing all types of pollution. Which then allows for a significantly shorter round-trip for each inner-city garbage truck. Rather than each garbage truck driving potentially hours to the landfill, they can do their route in as little as an hour total. Saving the garbage truck company, money, wages, truck, expenses, but most crucially time.

How it should work in my mind
-The transfer station will work as a hub for garbage cargo.

-The inner city garbage trucks will be supplied by the transfer station as will the semis.

-I would love for there to be at least a small and a large variant. The small may have three bay doors and the large May have 12. The small can fill one truck at a time while as the large can fill three at a time.

If anybody has questions on this, please let me know.

After many weeks, I have won my battle against the editor and present the US Southeastern University! The asset includes one main building and 9 sub-building upgrades. Hope y'all enjoy!
