Interested player

Hi there,

I bought City Skylines when it originally came. I was very impressed by the graphics, but eventually found the game lacking in micromanagement. I tried mods, but I am of the sort who likes to work with well integrated, vanilla mechanics.

Yesterday, after watching the EUIV dev clash finale, I stumbled on Cknoor showing off the new expansion for CS. I was very interested by the possibility to switch traffic lights, which I know has been a part of a mod since a long time, and by the traffic highliner, showing where the traffic is from and where it is going. This is also part of one or more mods.

So, my question here is : are there other good surprises like that coming?

And my commentary is : At last, I might return to this game after a few extensions which weren't that interesting to me! So, keep on the good work. You have my interest (back), Colossal Order.

If you want traffic management right now, look for Traffic Manager President Edition on the Steam workshop

(There's also a mod to see vehicle routes, but alas, I can't remember it's name...)

I didn't remember the name of this mod, but I most definitely tried it. However, as I said above, I'm always a bit uncomfortable playing with mods. I much prefer when base games have everything I need to enjoy them. And traffic management is such a big part of what I want to enjoy in CS that not having it discouraged me to play it. Now, I will probably try again.
