Establishing the latest Cities Skylines 2 city!
Time to get this blog going again, with the regular updates via my YouTube channel on how my Cities Skylines 2 cities start and evolve.
Introducing my fourth Cities Skylines 2 city: Manukau Ranges.
This city is built using the Volchoria Map from @paradoxinteractive Mods: Volchoria Map
Each blog post will contain either:
- The standard X.X series where I undertake City Building along with talking Planning Methodology.
- The Manukau Rides X.X series where I jump on the transit system and travel around. Often used to see where problems might occur best seen at ground level.
