https://www.sovietrepublic.net/post/report-for-the-community-92 I'm glad they're adding more building variants but I have to chuckle at the big hospital. With modded smaller hospitals it sure seems to be more advantageous to spread out a couple smaller clinics people can walk to than use one of the big hospitals. If I ever need the capacity for a big hospital, my republic is already in a probably irrecoverable death spiral as a result of loss of electric or heat. It's like the one variant of building I don't think I'll ever once use.

One thing realistic really hammers home is that I really, really need to actually plan my changes out from the beginning instead of deciding "uh, I guess I'll jam this in here then" which continues to be a recipe for abject failure. I keep just jamming things in instead is sticking to the 5 year plan.

My republic just got crippled by waste separation randomly deciding to chuck all construction waste into landfill that is feeding incinerator. Now there is construction waste everywhere. Good times  . I actually don't know if I ever set that landfill to mixed waste only and only got lucky for 15 years or some bug turned that off. But I also had that happen that fertilizer plant decided to dump mixed waste into where fertilizer should go. Now I wish I had option to discard waste on non-realistic. Or maybe just a good excuse to start a new republic with that small technical university

You can roughly calculate the size of population needed for all 3 shifts, add about 20% to cover services and size everything to fit from there.

The game does need a little more micro control on agent pathing to make those mega service buildings “worth it”

Like if I could make a “hospital bus” and have it run a route ever 4 hours and people with hospital needs would know to get on it. I don’t think this is possible yet

I always thought it looked really odd to see roads and farms being worked on with lonely self-driving machines. I will be happy to see my fields tended by hard-working socialist peasants, collectively sweating towards a brighter tomorrow!

There was always something eerie about people going into fields and disappearing completely. Buildings are basically the same but whatever consumption was happening was happening behind walls, you know?

It's very weird seeing the photos on the loading screen and it turns out that no, the game is apparently a 100% faithful recreation of how it looked. The paths and lawns everywhere is deeply uncanny to my eye.

Philippe posted:It's called walkability. Mostly it's just I'm used to much denser construction and more trees. We don't really do giant fields of grass with crop circles of paths criss crossing them in the UK. Modern cities are wall to wall buildings and roads while more rural areas tend to have a lot more tree cover or be actual farmland but they still generally favour terraced buildings clustering along a high street. It's an odd look to see IRL for me.

Sooooo I build a little prison for my starting town just cos you don't want to let that get out of hand and end up with a crime spiral. But erm. Well... I may have forgotten to assign it to a DO. So for the past... five years I have been sending people to essentially a death camp? I feel like the game should have the "building needs supplies" notification turned on by default for prisons. I also don't think orphanages come with it turned on either.

I was wondering why I persistently had a handful of people complaining about starvation but couldn't see any housing out of range of a grocery store so I figured maybe they were just the odd person trying to shop at a bad time, no turns out it was everyone who ever went to prison being starved to death. How do the prison buses work anyway? Do you just run them from the prison to a building and they work shifts?

Given that the game doesn't have deathcare I think I was already doing that. Or maybe it does have deathcare and it's just listed as about 0.06t of biological waste.

It's not a city but I like building these little secure compounds for high value industries, this one is for nuclear fuel production: The starter city also came out quite well, had to build a harbour to import large track builders and western vehicles because both those things would be inaccessible without big infrastructure otherwise.
