Overview of my Cities: Skylines city Trinity Gate. Compared to last overview post, there are more farms, the new coal power plant and of course the new harbor. The city center has also massively densified compared to last update. #CitiesSkylines2 #TrinityGate

A screenshot of my Citiees: Skylines 2 city Trinity Gate giving a bird's eye view of the city. The highly densified city center can be seen on a peninsula in the top right of the image. The center of the image is dominated by the fields that are outside of the city, with the city entrance slightly above the image's center. In the top center of the image, on the northern shore of the peninsula's neck, is the industrial area and harbor. On the left of the image are the highway and rail line going from top to bottom on the image. Both are branching off to the right to connect through the fields to the city, the rail line making a detour through the industrial area. The harbor and the new coal power plant can be seen in the top left corner of the image.

Densification in the Downtown area :) #CitiesSkylines2 #TrinityGate

While the harbor was under construction, the city also built its first college. With space for over 3000 students, it promises to provide higher education for the entire city. #CitiesSkylines2 #TrinityGate

A screenshot of my Citiees: Skylines 2 city Trinity Gate showing the city's first college. Technically constructed out of 2 colleges from the french asset pack, it's part of a larger housing block that features some housing and commercial spaces.

The Trinity Gate harbor is finished! With a high capacity highway connection and even higher capacity freight rail connection, this new harbor can be well connected to the city and beyond, promising to turn Trinity Gate into a major trading hub. #CitiesSkylines2 #TrinityGate

A screenshot of my Citiees: Skylines 2 city Trinity Gate showing the fully developed harbor island. The canal that cuts the island off of the mainland is in the bottom left of the image. The rail bridge can be seen which leads into a gentle s-curve into the train terminal, while the highway bridge turns into a dramatic loop to get the highway down to ground level. Industrial and office spaces are situated underneath the highway loop. The harbor island is completely surrounded by quay walls which house several cargo cranes spread across the island's perimiter. A fishing pier and passenger ferry terminal can be seen on the right side of the image. The island is mostly filled with harbor streets and storage spaces, specked with the occasional office or industrial building. Ships can be seen around the harbor.

Almost forgot these progress shots ^^ They are from before the harbor construction started and show how I filled in the open plains between the city and the power plant. #CitiesSkylines2 #TrinityGate

Harbor construction progress :) #CitiesSkylines2 #TrinityGate

A screenshot of my Citiees: Skylines 2 city Trinity Gate showing the half finished harbor island. The eastern half of the harbor is mostly finished, while the west side of the island is still untouched.

Decided that I wanna continue building on my Minecraft world "Merath" again so I'm setting up the Minecraft server again. Updating a server from 2 years ago while switching from Spigot to Paper certainly is a task 😅 #Minecraft #Merath #Linshire #creative #building

Minecraft screenshot of the riverfront of the city of Linshire in my medieval fantasy world of Merath. Several buildings are lining the shore, interspersed by city streets. A boat can be seen on the river next to a dock.

I, uh, can relate 😅

The new power plant has been built! It will finally provide enough power to supply the whole city. Now it is vital that the new harbor will be built soon as the old harbor is not fit for the purpose of supplying the power plant with the necessary amount of coal. #CitiesSkylines2 #TrinityGate

A screenshot of my Citiees: Skylines 2 city Trinity Gate showing the new coal power plant. It sits on the coast of the bay west of the new harbor area, which can be seen in the top right of the image and is still an undeveloped green island. The rail cargo terminal is connected to the power plant by a short road. The area is surrounded by storage spaces for the power plant and some industrial facilities.

CodedStingray@codedstingray· Jun 11

As preparation for the future new coal power plant, a new cargo rail terminal has been built right next to the new power plant site. #CitiesSkylines2 #TrinityGate

A screenshot of my Citiees: Skylines 2 city Trinity Gate showing the area west of the industrial area. The open green fields are criss-crossed by several highways and rail lines. The harbor canal can be seen in the top right of the image.

Drama struck the city again with the construction of Kapine Tower, the new HQ of telecom firm Kapine. It was built on Wood Street, the border between high density Downtown and low density George Harrison Park. (1/3) #CitiesSkylines2 #TrinityGate

A screenshot of my Citiees: Skylines 2 city Trinity Gate showing the border between high density Downtown on the left and low density Harrison George Park on the right, with Wood Street being the deliniation between the two districts. Kapine Tower, a large square office tower, can be seen right on the border, but still on the Downtown side od the street.

And some progress screenshots :)

With population pressure on the city center increasing, the farms on the south shore of the peninsula have been replaced with new housing developments. #CitiesSkylines2 #TrinityGate

A screenshot of my Citiees: Skylines 2 city Trinity Gate showing the south shore of the peninsula, which is dominated by two farms.

Time I post something again I guess 😅 So here's some build progress images of a Terraria base I'm working on with a friend ^^ #Terraria #Fairy #Grove

Overview of the current state of my Cities: Skylines 2 city Trinity Gate :) I'm loving how the city is turning out so far ^^ #CitiesSkylines2 #TrinityGate @citiesskylines.paradoxinteractive.com

To improve the industrial area's access to the city center, a new rail connection has been built, which bypasses the rail yard and connects to the industrial district's new train station. Both train lines have been diverted through the new connection. #CitiesSkylines2 #TrinityGate

A screenshot of my Citiees: Skylines 2 city Trinity Gate. The new rail connection can be seen that bypasses the rail yard and passes through the new station at the edge of the industrial area.

Field and Forestry developments :) #CitiesSkylines2 #TrinityGate

Next time a AAA studio excuses AI slop in their games as "placeholders" that were "missed" before release, please remember that the asteroid-dodging racing game I'm working on currently looks like this. *This* is what real placeholders look like. #gamedev #indiedev #solodev #godot #noAI #fuckAI

Screenshot of my WIP racing game. Two player space ships in the form of small colored abstract shapes are dodging asteroids that currently use the Godot icon as texture.

Also used this piece's concept to try and create my own. Basically a cylinder with some grooves around it. Could be the base for a decorative tower or something, but was really just for me to actually create something of my own and not follow a tutorial for once ^^ #3d #3dmodeling #blender

A 3d practice model. A cylinder with a spiral cutout.

Some practice pieces I made from some YouTube tutorials :) The YouTuber whose tutorials I used: www.youtube.com/@pixlways #3d #3dmodel #blender

A 3d practice model. Hard surface piece with a box shape on one side and a quarter cylinder on the other side.

In an effort to reduce traffic congestion, the main street has been widened from 2-4 lanes to 6 lanes across its entire length. Some side streets were also widened to improve access to the main street. Surely adding more lanes will solve the traffic issues, no? (1/4) #CitiesSkylines2 #TrinityGate

With the city growing ever more, more and more people are wanting to live close to the city for its amenities but still enjoy a rural lifestyle away from the city bustle. Thus, the village of Cattleway has been steadily growing for a while now. #CitiesSkylines2 #TrinityGate

A screenshot of my Citiees: Skylines 2 city Trinity Gate focusing on the village of Cattleway. It's a quaint little village besides a country road, surrounded by livestock fields.

Finally dug up my drawing tablet again lol If I wanna be serious about doing art I really gotta practice more consistently 😅 #art #digitalart

Look at this colorful little housing facade. I really quite like it :) #CitiesSkylines2 #TrinityGate

A new canal has been dug to allow for future planned ship routes across the harbor. This cut off the peninsula west of the city, turning it into an island and creating more space for future expansions of the harbor :) #CitiesSkylines2 #TrinityGate

A screenshot of my Citiees: Skylines 2 city Trinity Gate showing the peninsula west of the city. A single unused rail line can be seen running up the middle of the peninsula. The harbor and industrial area is visible in the bottom right of the image.

A screenshot of my Citiees: Skylines 2 city Trinity Gate showing the peninsula west of the city, now cut off by the harbor and thus turned into an island. The harbor is expanded along the canal and transport infrastructure has been massively expanded. A high arch road bridge and a low rail drawbridge are crossing the canal, currently ending in an empty grass field.
