Custom traffic light

Is there a custom traffic light mod like TM:PE for CS2? They were such a blessing in CS1 and I’d love to have them in CS2 too.

"Not enough educated workers" 😐

I know this has been asked a hundred times atleast but want to ask it in my own words.

So I've been playing cities for a couple years, I ain't a pro but I would like to think I know how to build a half decent city. After a few months off I have decided to start a new one.

Already with only 3k citizens I am getting not enough educated workers. Why do I get this on all my saves? I have got plenty of elementary schools, good public transport and attractiveness to get educated people to move here. I just find it frustrating so early on.

Any tips would be welcome. Ty

PLS HELP with subway yards

I have built a second subway yard to have more metro cars on each line, but none are coming out, even when the other one is turned off. What could be the problem? I also set the number of vehicles on each line combined higher than 15 so both yards should be working to supply the system.

(4 lines with 7-8-7-8 trains, public transport budget on 130%, every line connected), Left yard is the not working one. the right one works fine when turned on.

Traffic Issues and City Design

Hi everyone! I love Cities Skylines but I can’t ever seem to make a city thrive past 20k people. Traffic becomes insane. I put so much thought into my designs for the roads. I put large roads to transport people, those funnel to progressively smaller roads. The large roads and highways obviously have nothing zoned on them. How in the world does my traffic continue to be a nightmare.

My citizens with roundabouts are clueless like most US drivers (I’m from the US lol). They are in the wrong lane and creates massive issues. I’ve also experimented with one ways to change the flow of where people have to go to get to certain destinations. All my efforts I have seemed to fall flat on my face.

I am playing the Xbox version as an FYI. Should I consider getting the version from steam and installing modding? I’ve heard it better with mods, but want to ensure it’s worth it.

Thanks for all tips!

Also…

How do you guys come up with such creative layouts and designs? What is your inspiration? How do you sculpt landscapes and add all the decorative stuff like pedestrians paths etc.? Thanks!

Cims stuck on roads at stations

I have a lot of Cims getting stuck on the roads next to stations (trains and metro) and I can figure out why. When I click on a Cim it says they're going to a location but they don't show a traffic route. They're also not waiting for a taxi. The stuck Cims keep accumulating until I upgrade the road, then they suddenly start to move. But after that they will start to accumulate again. Does anyone have an idea what's going on and how to fix it?

Made a hotel with convention space by squishing together a non-functioning hotel tower with the Square Center, and added a swimming pool. Chachi Threads is currently having its annual sales convention there.

Beginner and Not Creative

Hello everyone, I recently purchased a PS5 and I downloaded Cities Skylines included in my PS Plus Extra subscription, I've been a fan of this game and this was the first game I downloaded when I had my gaming PC before. However, it only stays in my storage and I couldnt bring myself to play it because I dont know how or where to start as I am not really that creative to start from scratch but I would really like to build something from it.

Now that I have a PS5, I would like to try to play it while I am working just to pass time and I would like to ask for some help if there are model cities available online that I can follow to build with set of instructions so that I can fully copy it just like a project.

For example, like a model kit of Gunpla, in order for you to build it the specific Gunpla model, you just need to follow the instructions included in the box, same with Mini 4WDs and my mom's cross stitch projects. 😀 Are there any resources like that availale for Cities Skylines?

Thank you in advance and I hope there will be one! 🙏
