bigmandan posted:I was playing around with the asset editor to make a small park (4x4) and I'm confused with some of the properties. For example I set electricity and water usage to 1, but when I plop it down in game it shows as 16 kilowatts for electricity. Anyone have any idea on how the properties in the asset editor work? Sounds like your 4x4 16 square park is consuming 1 kw per square? Does that field accept decimals? Carrier posted:Man I would kill to have a "Road with bus-lane" option. CiM2 had fully implemented bus lanes that you could use on two-way roads, one-way roads of width 1-5 lane, etc. It seems like the developer scaled back their ambitions for Skylines.

marxismftw posted:Help! I've had this problem too. I think it's a bug, the outside connection its self should not be clogged yet I've also had this 10km long jam of trains before. If you delete the line and wait until all the visible trains are clear (can be a long time) then re-build it it flows ok. I think there's some bug that causes a train to stop somewhere outside the visible range of the map which creates the jam. There's absolutely no reason a straight section of track with no switches should get jammed, everyone should just drive forward at full speed and vanish off the map.

I've had a bug where the screen freezes whenever i try to change the camera angle over a cargo rail or ferry port. Thankfully the game is still running underneath the now frozen screen so F1 quicksaves still work. I've looked on the paradox forum and other people are having the same bug too. Its not game braking, just deleting the cargo terminals fixes the bug for now, but it is gimping my city wide industry policy a bit.

How do you re-select raised roads/railways you want to keep building from after you have deselected them? I can't find a way, every time I try to build from one the game starts to build a new road over it and I get the "space already occupied" warning.

I wonder if we'll ever get any district based architectural policies. CO hasn't added any style tags for buildings, so I don't think we'll ever see anything like that. I'd so love to be able to download a ton of nice buildings with correct stats from the workshop, all with a standardized list of architectural tags, and then control styles per district. So if you want an old-town district with only old architecture you got it and don't have to look at glassy sci-fi stuff. I really miss the ability to control styles from sc4, and now is absolutely the time to implement such a system and standardized system of tags for the modding community to use.

This game is really good. I started playing it this morning and before I knew it four hours had passed and my lovely starter city has grown into a wonderful little place where all the locals just tweet about how much they love living in paradise and there's only one bad intersection in the whole town.

I haven't even played the game yet but im getting shameful amounts of pleasure imaging what EA is thinking, now that they effectively lost a genre that had such a well known title for it. Its kinda fascinating how they let that all go, and the agent system they advertised so much, be done properly by such a smaller team. I've kinda considered this the Bad Era of Gaming from a consumer standpoint, but god is it cathartic to see something go the other way in such a dramatic fashion, like a cheesy ending to a feel-good underdog sports movie.

Slowly expanding the grid and trying to divide the city with parks! Drawing roads is such a chore in this game for some reason.   Since the game has no town halls, I borrowed the Maastrict City Hall from workshop. Haven't bothered too much with the bus routes, since figuring out a place for them to turn around and head back, and a place where all the lines converge (like a railway station or something) is too hard.

How do I choose a specialization? I created a district in my industrial area, its sitting on top of ore, but i can't choose a specialization for some reason. Edit: Im dumb, you need to go to the district menu and specify it as an ore district.

It's in the district painting menu, not the district policies its self. Just click on the mining zone and then click on your district.

This is a response by the developer: It amuses me that it's a little difficult to tell if some of that is a nuanced dig at SimCity 2013 or if it's just an explanation of how they fixed the problems SimCity also had when they encountered them. Read a bunch of this thread after it was mentioned in the SimCity 2013 thread and snapped it up last night, played too much of it, was really tired this morning. Need to work on making the city not a hodge podge of insanity and/or start over. It really is just what we've been waiting for I think.

I very distinctly thinking playing the first Cities in Motion 3-4 years back, which was a bit janky but also had a fair amount of charm, that CO could might make a pretty decent city builder, but I'm pretty much blown away by how good it is out of the box, with further improvements down the track. Hopefully the amount of  flooding in via Paradox means they'll continue support for a while, they did a reasonable amount of follow-up on CiM2 (better timetabling and being to easily adjust variables) but at some point they stopped because they were obviously working on this.

Just rename the thread to "Cities Skylines: Through the Fire and the Flames" because holy poo poo I've never seen such an incompetent fire brigade. I really wish building would say which stupid services they need to upgrade too, they have access to every city service, a bus line, a metro, both kinds of trains and plenty of recreational areas but gently caress that let's stay one inch under max level.

Yeah I'm 100% fine with agents not being the be-all and end-all of the simulation and some things being abstracted. Even in sc4 with an abstracted traffic model you got all sorts of abandonment issues simply due to bad pathfinding, with a 100% agent based simulation you get simcity 2013. Once again though I wish more of the game was tweakable. She mentions that sims actually getting to work give a very minor bonus to the workplace, I wish this was more important. Not critical, but just more important.
