    it’s very possible. it’s even possible to build cities without any personal vehicles at all. (only service vehicles). Though the default ways to play the game are heavily biased towards carcentrism. It’s been too long since I’ve played to remember actualol mods and stuff I’m too poor to own a PC that could run games like that. But back in lockdown I spent an insane amount of time on that game haha.

    In CS1 there was a mod to rebalance percentages because there was a built in 70% car usage minimum. I think CS2 base game is playable without any outside road connection so you can have a city be purely public transit and walking. See Seniac 2’s oiltown series (Ironic the town he designed without cars is super car centric anyways).

      I tried it with SC2 on release and even if I had 100% “pedestrian only” streets, people still drove on them to get to their place. Even with a lot of public transport.

      But maybe the early release version was also part of the problem. I should try again

        It’s a bit of a pain, but you could literally not have an outside road connection to your town. Only an outside rail connection. Then no one can own cars.
