Public Transport Cam

In 1 collection by PhatR
PhatR's Cinematic Cams

Description
This cinematic camera mod follows the action in your city by showing you views of public transport vehicles.

Changed to not include vehicles with the words "post", "cargo", "freight", or the generic named "jet plane". I also made it so it will not repeat the last 3 vehicles unless other vehicles cannot be found. Fixed it so it will show a random road when no public transport vehicles or buildings are found.

Notes

Cinematic camera scripts are mods, so they disable achievements.
Vehicles and camera routines are picked at random. You may get duplicates in a row.


The source for this mod was Action Cam.

Observation of MODS with this game:

When adding mods, go to the content manager and enable the mod, then completely quit Cities: Skylines game.
Then you can restart it.


When you change anything in the CONTENT MANAGER you should restart the game before loading a save or doing another action like starting a new game or using an editor.
The interface hates two actions in a row.

Also when loading a save game after enabling a new mod, most likely cities will fail to run properly the first time you load a save and require another restart. Something is written to the save file when it fails to load on the first time with a new mod, the second try to load a save with a new mod seems to work every time.

@PhatR thank you!

@vulpustimultium You can edit the mod file so the timing is longer in a text program.
its located in your steam mods folder, search for file, publictransportcam.cs
edit it any text editor, find the lines "duration = 10;" and change them all to be longer than 10 seconds to what you want then save the .cs file. then you need to delete the file publictransportcam.dll the game will generate a new .dll using your edited .cs file

Is there any way to make it so the cam stays for a longer time with each individual vehicle?

Pnevma if i remember, it will pick all transport types yes. as i stated in the comment below, it is picking the new airplanes from airport dlc also.

does this include taxi or tour buses? maybe we can make a list of public transport it includes, im presuming it's every icon in the screenshot - right?

Just letting you know that this camera mod is now picking up the new airplanes from airports dlc.
I believe that your airplane mod will do the same too.

This is great. I have a brace loaded. Is there any way to lengthen the time allotted to each vehicle? What does the + > slider do? Thanks for working on this.

Thanks to the guys over at https://discord.gg/RRGYkmN (Cities Skylines Creators)...
They were able to help me get the proper c# code to identify vehicles by name.
I also needed to add two more DLL files from the cities skylines folder.
So now all my cams will be updated to filter out vehicles that match specific names that don't belong there.
I will also now make a Hearse cam, A fire helicopter cam, a police helicopter cam, a postal vehicle cam, an industrial rail cam, industrial ship cam, industrial plane cam...etc and many more im sure.
If anyone has any suggestions, let me know.
I recall someone wanted a bicycle cam.. so i will make one of those also.
