Demolishing all the abandoned industrial buildings helped, and now the city's population has bounded up to 14k. This dunes map is quite the thing!

Help. I'm pretty sure I've spent more time modelling buildings for this game than actually playing this game.

I was musing about how I always wanted to model a certain building from Die Hard. Then musing turned into MUST BUILD THIS.

I give you Nakitomi Plaza. This was fun to model.

This really is three games. Making your own poo poo to put into the game, spending a shitload of time looking through everyone else's poo poo on the workshop, and if you're lucky, playing the actual game.

I'm still on the edge on this after the disaster of a game that shouldn't be spoken about in polite company, so I ask of three things.
Are there any youtube channels that has actually competent people playing this game? I got linked Day9's stream of it the other day and it was the most infuriating thing I've ever watched :v:

There is a good twitch stream from a goon that someone has handy.
I haven't had anything really bad buggy, but there is an issue if you plop too many parks that will kill commerce, but there's workarounds.

The Paradox Interactive Twitch channel has a livestream recording that's good. The worst bug I have encountered is some problems with roads and making weird shapes. I believe that you can turn off the Chirps. I don't notice them.

i made a cheat city where I built up a bunch of poo poo and then proceeded to flood the entire thing with dams.

There were tweets, as the water was engulfing the city, about how beautiful the city is and how great of a mayor I am. You have some low standards folks.

I wish there were actual disasters though. Have them be a thing you can turn on and off, but there needs to be like tornados and poo poo that can destroy parts of the city

This busway system works great, have a metro hooked up to it as well. I'm not sure how to hookup garbage to the depot and fire department though.

Ok is there a reason why all of the heavy industrial traffic absolutely refuses to use the middle overpass here



I've seen smaller traffic use it but all of the industrial vehicles moving left always go down to the original interchange and do a u-turn to come back and take the offramp to the industrial zone

I like that Mirrors Edge filter



An Ice Cream shop for every resident



Couple others of the only city I've managed to get a decent population and also decent traffic.





Key to manageable traffic is neighborhoods and downloading non-lovely off ramps from the workshop. I've been trying to add as much user created zone buildings because there seems to not be much variety.

This is just a guess, but maybe it has to do with road speed?

Try changing that middle off ramp from two lane one-way road to a highway ramp and see if trucks take it then.

It's a two lane one-way in that picture. Like I've seen other smaller vehicles use it but the heavy semis absolutely refuse to go on it.

Unfortunately like 95% of the premade intersections are useless on maps with any hills at all.

Sure :)

Inchun Metropolitan Area, Jodhnagar Metropolitan area (needs the flavourtext descriptions).

My more popular mods.

The reason for that is the elevated pedestrian walkways and roads. The former especially, is a complete bitch to use when any change in elevation is present. I've had to re-do whole walkways systems because I kept demolishing pieces trying to connect them.

Right. What I'm saying is replace the road with a highway ramp (third icon in the fourth road tab).

If you give up, I heard a tip to try a micro district just on the ramp you don't want trucks to use that bans heavy vehicles.

How do growables work as mods? I want to make some Level 2 and 3 hi-tech industrial buildings (IC fabrication plants; something woefully missing from this game) to go with a unique ploppable I also had in mind, but I'm not sure if just making the asset makes them work, or you need to be careful with settings.
