Re: Cities: Skylines
I seriously doubt that. I really don't think any of the mods I use are crucial to having 125k pop and while I build slowly, so the city grows slowly, I don't see it stop growing any time soon. A friend of mine is at 200k. And I've seen a lot of bigger cities, although I never checked whether they use mods or not ...
Personally I didn't buy the addon so far. Taxis and bikes sound nice, but not that nice. I'll wait for a deal

Re: Cities: Skylines
I'm not actually playing this game, but I do have it on my wishlist. Savegame location is probably My Documents or something, most games make a folder around there to store stuff, although some have the tendency to store it somewhere in AppData (might need hidden files to be visible).YNM wrote:(does anyone know where the savegame is located ?)

I'm thinking that soon enough my metro network would kind of doomed... No room to goes a different level is, well... A disadvantage IMO; where were the last time you see metro system goes only in a level ?Pyoro wrote:I seriously doubt that.

Re: Cities: Skylines
Hum. I'm not sure the Munich Metro has more than one level, to be honest. ^^ Maybe a few crossings somewhere, but game-wise I don't think it matters too much if you just build level-Metro-crossings ...
I don't use Metros too much. Just sort of for mid-distance connections, everything else is bus-connected. And I feel that ultimately in terms of city growth the most important connections are industry ones, anyways, and they don't care too much about public transportation ...
Well, traffic and transportation map screens of my city - probably not the best example on account that it kinda started out as a ridiculous joke idea with pedestrian walkways everywhere, but it works, so ...

Re: Cities: Skylines
Thanks to you all guys, I've imported the old savegame... Now it's just about crossing 62k population. The update is really nice that at last there're road and rail tunnels, more than one level too ! Helps with some metro junctions and makes the city looks nice too.

Re: Cities: Skylines
Some screenies from my previous game with 1.1.
I was further in the game but lost 1/4 of my city due to a savegame corruption.

Re: Cities: Skylines
Do pedestrian walkways actually contribute to anything other than making things look better?
My Scenarios:
Archipiélago Hermoso (Latest Release: Version 3.2)
Turnpike Falls (Latest Release: Version 0.91)
Re: Cities: Skylines
I've build an entire city making sure everything is connected with walkways and I can tell you that they are used like crazy -
http://images.akamai.steamusercontent.c ... 86FAC4486/
what I can't tell you is whether it actually makes a difference in terms of traffic etc. Would they just use the sidewalks instead? ^^;
They might make a difference for places where people otherwise can't cross things - railways, rivers, motorways - but I'm not sure it has an actual gameplay impact for inner city transportation
€: I suppose I could get a conclusive answer if I razed them all and checked whether it changed anything. But I think I'm not up for the challenge - there's A LOT of them xD

Re: Cities: Skylines
Did I do what? ^^;;;
Train station is working ... to some extend. I don't like solutions that I don't feel are at least somewhat realistic (which is completely ridiculous in a city where every single house is connected via an elevated footpath, 98% build in some grid pattern ... total realism there ^^), so with the outside connections it's inevitably a bit of a mess:
http://images.akamai.steamusercontent.c ... 92FD61F46/
But trains don't get stuck and all lines are used to some sensible degree so it's OK. Could be worse. Don't think passenger trains have much use, though, to be honest, strictly gameplay-wise speaking. Just use buses and metros ^^;

Re: Cities: Skylines
Ladies and gents ... an update has been released for Cities Skylines.
I am pretty sure you will find your ways towars the changelogs.
Anyhoo that is not what I wanted to post about right now.
I just wanted to warn my friends overhere about a possible breach of privacy if attention is not being payed.

Devs are looking into the issue and a fix should be available asap ... whenever that may be.

Re: Cities: Skylines
Reminds me how me and the guy on Steam that we work on the same game together have a shared dropbox folder with the latest builds on it, and I accidentally forgot to turn off the automatic output_log.txt thing making itself every time either of us launches the game. It's got PC specs in it, so we got to laugh at each other's hardware choices (nVidia vs AMD scenario emerged).
I think Unity has a world domination scheme going on with that file, seeing as it evolves itself to spread more and more personal information without even the developers knowing.
Failing that, they just resort to infecting the internet with the horrible, horrible hack that is their networking, making all otherwise stable connections time out without any reason whatsoever, crippling pretty much the entire web without any way for anyone to do anything about it but the Unity guys, who of course will just resort to calling it a "future Unity N+1 improvement" for 4 years only for it to turn out to be just the same crappy deal with just a fancier wrapping.

Re: Cities: Skylines
And a hotfix is now available for the issue I mentioned in my previous post.
Who said they can't be fast if they really want to.
https://forum.paradoxplaza.com/forum/in ... t-20183538
For those of us that have plugins ... somone was kind enough to quote the post where the above link points to:
What happened here is no fault of Unity ... it was the game fetching data from the paradox/collosal order servers when checking to see if they can allow you to use the DLC stuff (that everybody has on their pc btw) or not and inserting that data in the log file.
Always online BS, unwanted tracking and unneeded collecting of personal info
Anyhoo issue fixed, for now.
Edit:
I can see again too, without getting a migraine from here till Tokyo. Woot

Meh, die Paradox Account Login is entirely optional - I've never, not once, used it with any PI games. But what's the point of login in if it then doesn't check online? ^^; Stands to reasons that's it there for something ...
