MikeJF posted:I'm in this weird place where my city seems to have flattened out. Everyone's reasonably happy, traffic's not that bad, all my services are over capacity... but my RCI is zeroed out and new zones don't really want to grow. Any tips? If you have zones that are placed instead of the RCI meter building up, they'll just build new buildings and leave the RCI at zero. I think that RCI in this game is handled different to simcity. In Simcity it seems to be a graph of how popular zones will be where as in cities skylines I feel like its like a tank of buildings that will get belt if you have the zones for them. Not sure though.

If you autobulldoze, it won't tell you why it was bulldozed. Doesn't really matter because if you have a larger issue, you will see other signs like buildings complaining about not enough workers, or a dead person or that people are sick before it ends up being bulldozed.

Anyone has an opinion on ground highways vs elevated highways in term of initial map placement? I really like the look of the elevated ones but I know they come with some cons....

smoobles posted:This Mars map made me wonder: I came here from the Kerbal Space Program thread, and what I really want in my heart of hearts is a fusion of that and Skylines. A city of Kerbals running around would be both entertaining and fairly accurate, given how I see vehicles moving around. Would need more explosions though.

Welp, something happened and I couldn't load any save games or even start a new game (black screen, loading progress bar forever) until I disabled "auto line color" mod. Posting just in case this happens to someone else, don't panic, disable mods. e: Going by steam comments, I'm not alone. I guess the update broke everything. http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=408760323

Are there any good "small" parks yet? ( or better yet, more leisure activities like Movie Theaters, Arcades, Strip Clubs for Industrial, or ANYTHING else. ) It bothers me that by the time people want parks, all the parks I can build are these gigantic block large things. They are like roundabouts and intersections in that them seem built for once your city gets to 3-4 tiles large, except unlike roundabouts and intersections, people want them when you are still 1/5th of the starter tile big. Also super large parks for stuff like Central Park would be nice, rather then just having 3-4 parks next to each other. Don't need it yet, but once I get a few tiles large I'll probably be wanting it.

It only has 904 entries but I think at least a few of them might work for you.

Is it weird I want a city builder in the Warhammer 40K universe? It'd be an interesting concept, instead of keeping people happy you need to keep them under the control of your iron fist all the while the Imperium of Man is constantly breathing down your neck. Screw up and Space Marines comes to exterminatus your planet. It be great for those who love building dumb dirty industrial cities. Hell, you're pretty much a godly dictator in these kinds of games anyway.

I think there's a bug with train lines going out of the map because eventually they back up if your output is high enough. Why are outgoing lines backing up anyway? It doesn't really make sense.

I have a problem where inbound cargo ships keep lining up to get into my harbor - but only one of the harbors. Not the other one. What's going on? Would another harbor solve this problem, or would that just create two conga lines of cargo ships?

It doesn't seem like there's much reason to put out fires. For important buildings like my coal powerplant, yeah I made sure that went out. But since fires don't spread and the plot will just rebuild after, it doesn't seem like a big deal.

Count Roland posted:It doesn't seem like there's much reason to put out fires. Actually the plots don't auto-rebuild if they burn all the way down, at least not without a mod to do it. The burnt down plots have to be bulldozed and cause a small hit of unhappiness in their immediate area.

Standard 4-lane boulevards are for scrubs. Drawing one-way roads and filling it with ped streets/parks grants a whole level of control on intersections. World's tiniest functional roundabout without lights  Side-streets without intersection

Curvature of Earth posted:Skylines also isn't amenable to that particular degree of precision because it's not grid-based. Outside of prefabbed intersections, "optimal" placement of anything requires eyeballing it and praying your roads aren't off by too many pixels, forcing you to either start over or just accept that you're city's going to be messy. Imagine a complete flat, barren map. Only two small ditches of water exist at the borders for infinite water/sewage storage. Now imagine a pixel perfect grid stepping on the face of humanity forever.
