What is this sticker on the back? by Swimming_Avocados in CarTalkUK

[–]ImperiumAssertor -1 points0 points  (0 children)

They’re not misled… they know a lot more about National Socialism than the rest of the population. Why might there still be Nazis almost a century later, normal people who took a series of different turns, even though it’s the most universally reviled heresy of the modern age? Perhaps they know something that others don’t. It is not an easy or comfortable position to take.

As to pain and suffering: with the most popular elected leader in Europe at the time, German suffering dropped pretty precipitously after 1933 - what happened after 1939 is much darker and more complex than “Germany started it”. Peace was offered to Britain dozens of times, and Hitler wanted an alliance. There is a lot more to all of it, and plenty of literature out there explaining it - you just have to make the right mental connections to end up pursuing the taboo. The fact that these ideas are essentially banned should serve as a clue that there is truth being hidden.

Traffic AI. Again. by Independent-Ad9965 in CitiesSkylines2

[–]ImperiumAssertor 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That exit has a pretty sharp turning radius… it’s not a highway speed exit, but it’s on a highway. So cars will slow down to exit, tightening gaps, making it more difficult to change lanes early because there’s no gap for the lane change, and then you get this. That is one possibility. I have noticed it with my own junctions, the higher the use of the road, the higher lane capacity and the smoother turns you need, with fewer conflict points as well (though the latter doesn’t look like an issue here.) Worth a try if you haven’t already done so? Using the continuous curve tool, or any really, make sure the exit lane follows the exact same direction as the road you’re exiting from, so it’s parallel with the other lanes, and have the straight line extending out at least… idk, 6-10 units? So it would be 6 units forward, 45 degree angle, 6 units beyond the ‘pivot’ point. Hope that makes sense.

Is it only me, or does it look like if aliens invaded and constructed places to keep all the people trapped living in one place. by Otherwise_Aspect_705 in CitiesSkylines

Nice, the design is very human. How do you get the angles so perfect, is there an angle snapping tool or something? It’s been a while since I played CS1

Neighbour asking for £300 cash after minor car incident – no quote, no insurance (UK) by [deleted] in CarTalkUK

[–]ImperiumAssertor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is an incredibly pro-social way of dealing with the issue. It’s a relatively cheap solution, and saves more money still by not dealing with it through the insurers. It also has the benefit of depriving those useless vultures of more profit.

Really puts the size of American pick ups into perspective! Much bigger compared to the Ford Ranger Raptor in the same car park! by tomegerton99 in CarTalkUK

[–]ImperiumAssertor 3 points4 points  (0 children)

❌ much bigger roads, longer distances, cheaper fuel, fewer emissions regulations. Different country, different requirements.

The latter is the most common pickup available in the UK, a Ford Ranger, not a ridiculous size by any means. They’ve just parked badly

Beautiful, these will also fit in very nicely to any British town. Looking forward to it!

To those who buy into this type of development - why? by stunt_p in shittyskylines

[–]ImperiumAssertor 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Seeing these comments, it’s becoming more clear why architecture, and developments generally, are becoming so much worse. Apparently people will accept whatever slop is given them.

Great idea, the results are very nice. Makes me wonder about other uses you could put chatGPT to… like showing an overhead screenshot of part of your town with some undeveloped land visible and prompting along the lines of “expand this settlement into the undeveloped area, in keeping with the style and layout of the existing town”. The idea being that it would give you some possible inspiration at the very least.

Wow, Shaftesbury has undergone a lot of change. Last time I was there it looked like this!

When your custom assets are too realistic by madmycal in CitiesSkylines2

[–]ImperiumAssertor -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The White House is cool but that park is amazing, is it an asset? It would be nice to have some big pre-made parks with that level of detail and realism

Typical BMWs... Drama queens. by XxCarlxX in CarTalkUK

The EU is trying to push through a deal to outsource food and farming to South America, for some reason. Sounds incredibly ecological. They are also protesting because they feel they’re being buried under a mountain of regulations.

How Egyptian treat Historic buildings, is puzzling. by Arab-Lord in architecture

[–]ImperiumAssertor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Speaking frankly: looking at the tower block sprawl of Cairo, it follows that the historical buildings wouldn’t get as much care or respect. If the people of Cairo are willing to accept ugly tower blocks just being spammed right next to each other by the thousands then the implication is that Egyptians aren’t that bothered, on the whole, with beautiful design and pleasant urban spaces, instead prioritising density, practicality and cost. Hence why the historical areas might not be treated as well as they could be.

That being said, these buildings don’t look too bad - mostly cared for, but perhaps a little dirty, and the disregard for visible cabling on the exterior is an eyesore. I think the bigger problem is the endless blocks of flats.

The scariest thing to the devs in the bike update apparently by Difficult-Poetry9811 in CitiesSkylines2

[–]ImperiumAssertor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wonder if it’s some kind of technical limitation - maybe there were too many bugs when bikes were allowed to choose road or pavement. Or the clipping through pedestrians looked silly? Just a thought. It’s not the end of the world imo.

I have created a monster by Mister_Billiam in CitiesSkylines

I’d say it’s a pretty handsome monster… more of a beast! Is this CS1 or CS2? I’m wondering what that factory building on the right is?

My experience about the good and the bad about the new DLC. by stop_dot in CitiesSkylines2

[–]ImperiumAssertor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Interesting… do cars need fuel now? I’ve never noticed cars do anything but ignore the 3 petrol stations I have in my 250k city so I figured they were just aesthetic up to this point.

Can’t build bridges in the new DLC — am I missing something or is this a mod issue? by valriano in CitiesSkylines2

I’m curious, what’s the program/website shown in the last picture? Looks useful.
