If there are too many trains causing traffic jams in your game, you can fix it by reorganizing your train network.
There is an excellent explanation of how Cities: Skylines spans trains through the outside connections at https://steamcommunity.com/app/255710/discussions/0/1675812484338928634/

Cities: Skylines use the grass texture to fill the map where there is no water or rock. The desert theme replaces the green color of the grass with light brown. So the “grass” texture is still the background on the map, but the color is not green.
The ground resources tool is able to paint fertile land, but it also uses the grass texture. The tool can paint ore, so if we change the texture of ore to green grass, we can paint green areas in the desert.
To paint grass in a desert-themed game, create a new theme with green grass as the texture for ore.
You can download free seamless game texture files from https://opengameart.org

Error message about duplicate prefab name during game loading
If autosave is enabled in the asset editor, and you open an existing asset to create a new one based on it, autosave can save the work-in-progress asset as an autosave file. When you load the next game you may get the error message:

As I use Cities: Skylines I want to share tips and tricks I learn while I build my maps and cities.
| Game element | Real life size |
| 1 cell | 8 meters |
| 1 tile | 240 cells = 1920 meters |
| 9 tiles | 17,280 meters |
| Zoning grid depth | 4 cells = 32 meters |
| Curb | 30 cm high, as roads are sunken into the terrain. |
| Basic road | 2 cells = 16 meters wide Asphalt 10 meters wide Vehicle lane 3 meters wide Parking lane 2 meters wide |
| Four-lane road | 4 cells = 32 meters wide Asphalt width including the median 22.4 meters Asphalt width on each side of the median 8 meters Median width 6.4 meters Vehicle lane width 3 meters Parking lane width 2 meters |
| Highway ramp | Width 12 meters Asphalt width 8 meters Lane width 4 meters |
| 3 lane highway | Width 22 meters Asphalt width 18 meters Lane width 4 meters |
| Train tracks | Gauge 1.6046 meters Distance between rail centers 1.724meters Rail width 11.94 cm Distance between the centers of 2 parallel tracks 4 meters |
| Tram tracks | Same as train, but the distance between the centers of two parallel tracks is 3 meters |
| Monorail | Track width 66 cm Distance between the centers of two parallel tracks is 3 meters. |
The Cities: Skylines game use multiple units to display elevations and distances.
| Tool | Unit | Relative to |
|---|---|---|
| Landscaping tool | meters | Lowest elevation (0 meters) |
| Roads tool | Road segment length 1 unit = 8 meters | Road segment start |
| Fine Road Tool mod | meter | |
| Precision engineering mod | meter | Lowest elevation (0 meters) |
| Above | Bridge height |
| Cruise ships | 32-33 m |
| Ferries | 12 m |
| Railroad, roads | 12 m |
In the map editor, you can add water sources to your maps. In game mode, the original game does not have the means to add more water sources. Subscribe to BoodyPinguin’s Extra Landscaping Tools mod to add water sources in your games.
In the map editor you can set the sea level by typing a number, the mod in the city only uses the mouse to drag the sea level up and down. To set the level more precisely
When you discharge waste water to lakes and the sea, it can pollute the drinking water supply. Place a water source with the water level lower than the lake or sea level. It creates a drain to generate a current and remove the pollution.
If the traffic is too dense, turn on vehicle despanning. When the vehicles arrive to their destination they disappear.
I wanted to recreate the Los Angeles Pacific Electric Railway system based on the 1947 system map in Cities: Skylines. Los Angeles at the beginning of the 20th century had hundreds of miles of electric street cars connecting downtown LA with the surrounding cities.
I have found the high-definition PDF version of the Pacific Electric Railway system map at https://www.pacificelectric.org/pacific-electric/maps/1947-pacific-electric-system-map/
The website contains lots of great pictures, maps, and other information on the Pacific Electric and Los Angeles railway systems.
The links below contain the system map in PDF and PNG formats.
I have created a Cities: Skylines map based on the PDF file and shared it on the Steam Workshop:
| Name | URL | Notes |
| Los Angeles 1947 v 07 | https://steamcommunity.com/workshop/filedetails/?id=2858871489 | First published version |
You can use the PNG file as an overlay to easily transfer the road and train layout to your city. For instructions see Transfer streets to your city in Cities: Skylines using a PNG image file
The map uses the 81 tiles mod by BloodyPenguin. The current version as of writing is “81 Tiles (Fixed for 1.2+)” at https://steamcommunity.com/workshop/filedetails/?id=2858871489
You need this mod installed and activated to be able to work with the map. See Work with an 81-tile city in Cities: Skylines for instructions on how to use the mod.
The map also contains Santa Catalina Island in approximate position and shape. If you want to build Avalon, you need to do some terraforming to make room for the casino, the harbor, and the rest of the city. I have not added any sandy beaches on the main land and the island, it is a fun project to recreate them with the terraforming tool. The reservoirs and rivers don’t have water sources to avoid flooding if you block any of the rivers during construction. If you want to get water from them, use Boody Pinguin’s Extra Landscaping Tools mod to add water sources.

To transfer real life places to Cities: skylines you can use the Image Overlay 2 mod. It superimposes the selected PNG file over your layout with configurable position, rotation and transparency. See Cities: Skylines mods for more information.

To create a map using a height map in Cities: Skylines:
Remember that creating a map using a heightmap can be time consuming and requires patience and attention to detail. But the result can be a beautifully crafted and realistic city that you can be proud of.
When you start a new city in Cities: Skylines even if you have the 81 tiles mod installed, the map only shows one tile. To unlock all tiles
When the 81 tiles mod is installed, it is very important to exit to the Desktop every time you switch between cities or editors, otherwise, you will get errors in the game. Always select Quit game to Desktop. Returning to the Desktop clears the memory for a fresh start for the next session.
