I cna;t figure out how sewage works.

False alarm, my sewage pipe was not connected to the pipe that goes into town.

Traffic thing is definitely fixable. I haven;t seen it yet, but it's like they sit in one lane when others are available.

You need to be generous with the wider roads imo. Also elevated roads ftw.

Being able to expand your city is so cool. I like doing specialised industry but I wish there was more.

A Spider Covets posted:i think my fav part of the game has to be how quickly your city can go to complete poo poo. like i was all in the green for a while, making a profit slowly but surely, then i added one residential district and some agriculture and suddenly EVERYTHING WAS poo poo, WHAT THE gently caress I haven't come across that yet. I'm really conservative with how I expand tho and the game feels a little easy.

I never feel like I've had to really mull over plopping down services either. If I have cash and there are areas missing out I just build it.

I like to put my water pumping station downstream of my sewage pipes and feed turds to my citizens.

I still haven't seen that thing the Kotaku guy is complaining baout. I do have regular traffic problems though. I always have trouble with congestion at the initial highway later on in the game.

# ¿ Mar 13, 2015 12:59 |

I keep having to restart because I don;t really plan and everything looks like poo poo even though I'm making barrels of money.

Specialising is way too good. I made forestry and the only pollution I have in my industrial district is the Landfill.

What do y'all do with the starting intersection? I hate not having highways available to make it look good. Should I just ignore it until I get highways?
|
# ¿ Mar 14, 2015 03:38 |
|
I feel it's a really good idea to just leave lots of huge gaps everywhere for highways and stuff later on.
|
# ¿ Mar 14, 2015 04:59 |

Industry definitely needs a good highway system.
|
# ¿ Mar 14, 2015 04:59 |

I think my problem with traffic was I was over thinking highways and trying to make elevated ones even though I live in New Zealand and we don't have them. I made regular normal human ones that are flat and started using the pre built intersections and I think my problems are solved.

Also, Wormskull, you can drain rivers dry. If you put a pump below a dam it drains even faster.

Ciaphas posted:Trying to play this makes me feel even more hideously stupid than usual and I don't really know why It's the traffic dude. Merging differently sized (in terms of number of lanes) roads together creates traffic lights and backs everything up.
|
# ¿ Mar 15, 2015 07:51 |
|
That's the secret to this game. Park all your industry by the initial interchange, and connect everything by a uniformly sized road that has few intersections.

Here's my city before I ruin it with a disgusting highway: Traffic is almost perfect and I can't quite figure out why since I experimented with so much crap before this.

It's so freaking hard to get a good highway system. I figured out before that it's best to just keep the actual highway at ground level, but the custom map I'm using has an elevated highway at the beginning so I carried on and made a spaghetti monstrosity.
|
# ¿ Mar 15, 2015 13:15 |
|
Having elevated highways just adds another possibility for ugliness when it comes to off/onramps. I think it's easier to just make bridges over the highways with regular roads and then get fancy with the off ramps if you need to.

Larry Parrish posted:I know most cities in the world are on boring plains next to the sea or a river, but it would be cool to have a mountainy map with a river valley or something. Does the workshop support this. You can tell from the aerial screenshot, but my city is in a really mountainous map. Check the workshop because I forget what it's called.

maniacdevnull posted:The best thing about it in this game is traffic impacts service delivery, but it didn't seem like people actually care about the traffic itself. Put two of whatever service you need on both sides of the traffic jams and everything seems to work out I don't actually have any problems, I'm just trying to get rid of all the red intersections.

# ¿ Mar 16, 2015 02:57 |

It seems like no matter what I do, a backed up intersection will just shift somewhere else if I try to build around it.

The map I'm using has a big oil deposit on the top of a mountain that is too steep to connect to, but not so steep that you wouldn't spend half an hour trying to get to it.

Wormskull posted:I was accidentally putting turd water in the tower in a tiny mining settlement I made on the other side of a mountain and it killed 20% of my entire population. The turd water is good for unlocking the monuments for specific stuff like 1000 abandoned houses etc.

I tried out the mars map and the guy gives you only access to a lake at the start. It's in the only green area of the map that you might want to make look nice later on, but you have to permanently scar it with turds because there is no water flow.

*Skshhhhh* Houston, we have irreversibly filled the only fertile lake on Mars with turds. Over

I finalyl bothered to get a city to 20k pop without abandoning it. It's on some really hilly map with not much buildable land so my highway and offramps are insane monstrosities.
