[Music] welcome back everyone just about everybody that's
ever played modded City skylines remembers the mod move it well now it is here for City Sky L 2
and we're going to talk about how to use it along with its basic functionality and what to expect
by using this mod so if you are new here hit the Subscribe button leave a like drop a comment
down below and let us know what your favorite mod for City silence 2 is so far and let's get to
it if you're not familiar with move it it is a mod ba
sically designed to do exactly what it's called
it helps you move assets and items around on your map this mod is not only incredibly popular
but extremely helpful for your gameplay and is developed by cuboid who has been working hard
to get this initial version of move it available on City skylines 2 now move it is not hard to
find by going to your city skylines 2 main menu you can click PDX mods and search for a code mod
called move it by cuboid you can then add it to your active playet w
hich will download it to your
game but you will need to restart cities 2 before opening a city and having this mod take effect now
this is an early vers of move it so there are some features still to come and there's certainly some
work that cubid plans to do to continue to advance and improve on move it capability within cities
2 now once you've restarted your game and opened up a city or a new map you can actually see the
move it icon which most of us are familiar with from cities 1 down
in the bottom right corner of
your UI to activate move it you can click on this icon or you can actually use the m key on your
keyboard however you will need to unbind anything that the m key default to from just the vanilla
default settings you can find this under your game options then click inputs under the keyboard
tab you're going to be looking for the map tiles button which is what M typically defaults do if
you change this then you can activate move it with the key bind by pressing t
he letter M now while
under your options menu you can find a couple of things that alter the way move it functions
this includes the ability to invert the rotation direction of move it or you can select the Marquee
selection option which is also something that you can utilize the control M hotkey for while in
game this gives you the ability to select multiple items at one time the basic functionality of move
it is pretty straightforward and you'll be able to click and select various items o
nce move it is
activated to move them around on your map this could include buildings if you wanted to move
two houses closer together you can if you want to move trees around you can also do that you can
also do this with any sort of map items that show up once you load into a brand new city if you're
someone that's using props from a different mod or if you're using Dev mode you can also move
items that you manually Place pairing move it with other mods like Anarchy can give you a ton
of
Freedom when building in your city now while you have an object selected you can hold the right
Mouse button to actually rotate that object around the object will then follow the mouse movement
if you'd rather move this object in increments of 45° you can do that by holding your ALT key
while also doing the rotation utilizing your right Mouse button now something else that you
can do with move it while selecting an object is actually control the height of that object so
while you have an o
bject selected if you hit the page up button on your keyboard you can increase
the elevation of that object and by pressing the page down key on your keyboard you can lower an
object this can be really helpful when you're working in an area that has height changes and
you need to adjust the height of certain objects to fit the level of terrain and maybe one of the
most helpful features move it has is that when you are moving an object if you move it to a place
that you do not want you can h
it contrl Z to undo that movement this can be helpful when trying
to remove a mistake you have made but you can also hit control shift and Z at the same time to
redo a movement now if you want to move multiple items at once or a group of items you can use
the toggle control M on your keyboard you can then draw an area that you want to select multiple
items and you can then move those items together now everything that we just talked about with
regards to manipulating single items in terms o
f rotation and height can be done with the Marquee
selection tool so that you can actually change the or height of multiple items at once now if you
would rather just move a couple of selected items in an area you can click and hold the shift
key adding multiple items to that selection which you then can use move it to relocate those
items now there is a hotkey to also deselect so whether you're in Marquee selection with multiple
objects selected or a single object selected you can press al
t and the letter d on your keyboard
to deselect whatever you currently have selected you can also deselect whatever you have selected
by right clicking on your Mouse now Beyond just building an objects move it can also interact with
Road design or pedestrian pathing much like we're familiar with with City skylines 1 move it can
actually control the placement of nodes nodes are like end points or Junction points in your
roads this can be helpful when you're trying to adjust the placement of
an intersection or if
you're just trying to adjust the length of a road just by clicking and dragging the node to the
desired location now between your nodes there are segments and these segments can be adjusted with
move it first you want to click on the path or Road and it's going to show a small green bubble
in the middle of that segment by then clicking that segment you can then begin to alter its form
adjusting curves or making Curves in that segment between the nodes now since you hav
e the ability
to adjust height with objects and buildings you can also do that with roads by selecting a node
or multiple nodes you can use page up and page down to change the elevation of that road and of
course this also goes for pedestrian pathing this is a helpful feature if you're trying just to
iron out some of the curvature going up a hill or down a hill additionally gives you a little
bit more control over Bridges so now this gives you the ability to iron out some of the height
adj
ustments you may have with bridges on certain nodes now move it for City skyin 2 also has a
brand new Mode called manipulation mode this mode at launch is limited to segments but it
gives you additional control so you may have noticed some additional control points that you
couldn't grab in just the Baseline operation of move it that's where manipulation mode comes
in handy you can toggle this mode by pressing alt and M on your keyboard at the same time to
activate or you can hold alt and t
hen click on an object to manipulate it you can leave this mode
if you've toggled It On by simply right clicking now this gives you additional control over your
rotor pathing design and what it allows you to do is something similar to what node controller
did with City skylines one because manipulation mode actually gives you the ability to interact
with the access point closest to an intersection which allows you to make adjustments to that
intersection itself so if you're looking to polis
h up an intersection that might be at a funky
angle or you need to just make an intersection a little bit larger so that it makes more sense
given the situation you can do that utilizing manipulation mode and since this affects segments
you can also find this functionality in things like railroad so if you need to clean up something
besides just your roads and pedestrian paths you can probably do that it just gives you a little
bit more control and even allows you more Minor Adjustments to
those things that you're trying to
adjust now keep in mind this is an early version of move it in fact cuboid lists this as an alpha
version of this mod so be sure to save often in case of issues the Paradox mod page for move
it covers very important information regarding how to use move it the key binds as well as known
issues including anything that might disrupt your ability to use the mod very effectively so be sure
to read through the Paradox mod page REM moove it to make sure that you
're up to date on anything
that could be affecting the move it mod or other mods for that matter you can also see change log
information on this page to keep up to date with any updates that cuboid pushes out for move it you
can always support the mod and cubid by liking the mod or visiting some of the external links he
has on the Move It page and PDX mods now with all of that said this is an extremely helpful mod
to City skylines 2 and adds a ton of control over everything in your city and
I'm really excited
to see what all cuboid has in store for us in the future like I mentioned earlier combining this
with other mods like Anarchy is going to give you a ton of control over building your city move it
alongside some search functionality and then with assets down the road think you're going to have
a really fun time playing with all these mods combined and really making something incredible
in your city building builds so I'm excited to see what you all come up with I hope you
enjoyed
