In case people are interested, there's a competition to create an asset for the game. The prizes are ~~** Gamer Gear ** ~~ , but prizes nonetheless and worth a pretty penny. The theme is "worlds largest X" statues. Link: Competition Details

I have a sneaking suspicion that making a decent quality chirper statue would have a fair chance.

Here's another buildingmaker to watch. Only a few so far, but nice well-designed building growables, keeps the file size under control.

"Model must be under 4,000 tris, LOD under 200 " But no limits on file size. Just as planned! 500MB HD Statue of David here I come!

Any tips of managing cemetaries/crematoriums so that there isn't a constant amount of dead corpses in every building because the cemetaries seem to fill up instantly and I don't want to have to constantly build more?

Build 1-2 crematoriums per major population centre. A ratio of about 1 crematorium per 3,750 pop seems to work.

They should have enforced a 2k x 2k max texture just to be safe. Any competent artist should know this. But then I didn't know about city builder asset modders.

I think 2k x 2k, or even 1k x 1k, is recommended on their modding wiki, but there are people who are retarded and manage to have 20mb buildings within that.

It is also useful to note that an asset, with literally nothing has 5mb of overhead.

Crematoriums can knock out something insane, like one corpse a second. I don't think it's possible for them to be running over capacity, even when you increase their funding so they have the maximum number of hearses.

Question on landfills/incinerators. Do landfills actually send their inventory to be burned? I have a bunch of incinerators and yet my landfills don't decrease in amount filled.

You have to tell the landfill to empty itself, at which point it stops working until you tell it to start working again.

I can still see some green.  Man, I have not been a fan of what tunnels let you get away with, right until I realised the only way to save my city from some major surgery was to drop the Morlock Expressway underneath the entirety of the downtown. When I saw how drastically it fixed things I kept giggling to myself. I feel like I'm playing Dwarf Fortress.

At first I thought It's probably cause the area pushing out into the "lake" on the right is actually below the mountain, but then I realised what you meant and now and you have broken my poor mind.

So I had an idea for an arterial highway system:  Twin highways running in parallel. All traffic ON to the highway system goes to the underground highway, whereas all coming OFF comes from the above ground. Cars can transition from the underground to the above ground, and will hopefully only do so when their turnoff is coming up next. Shown is an example of a linkage to a hypothetical R/C/I zone to the right. I know the offramps are sharp and ugly, I just wanted to do a quick mockup. The highway directions may be a bit wonky too, but you get the gist. Hopeful result? Minimised congestion due to offramp turning. Whadda y'all think?

Level 3, typically, and a big enough footprint available. They are rarer in European Theme as well, as many of the level 3 choices are European themed wall-to-wall copies of level 1/2, unless you have tons of growables.

This was the skylines' engine's solution to "click on cargo rail terminal, drag rail down to underground rail tunnel" First experiments with regional arterial "surface streets" put underground. I think the general idea (ignore the top-right most area, before I had the funds to properly build out) is to build a 100x100 unit square, then take those six lane roundabouts and sink them to the lowest level and connect them at the corners of the 100x100 grids, and then add external and internal connections to the grid up to the surface level. Cargo and passenger rail generally at 1 above bedrock, and pedestrian tunnels at first underground level below the surface.

zedprime posted:There's an "Empty Facility" toggle on landfills you can hit. This completely turns off collection for that land fill so there's no way to have a non-micromanaged hybrid system in the base game, its sort of assuming you shift entirely to incinerators when they unlock and delete or mothball your old landfills after they are manually emptied. Of course there's a mod for this that automatically empties your landfills/cemeteries when they hit 90% capacity or whatever, then they'll go back to collecting trash/bodies once they empty.
