Perth is about to explode with people, and it needs a transport system to take them places.
You must deliver 2 and a half million passengers within 30 years, and be the top performing company.
Up to 5 companies will try and bankrupt you, starting after 5 months.
Ranked easy due to how quickly population grows if you put a rail road in them.
no mods needed and its 1975

That's the map. It was possibly made in one of the map gen programs using an alpine climate? Not sure, just a guess. I haven't had much of a chance to play for ages. Uni work doesn't complete itself!

Back on topic for a sec...
Looks interesting. Are there many industries or mostly/completely just suburbs?
I've never been over to Perth, but hope to make the trip one day, maybe on the Indian Pacific. If there was a suitable job opening over there in a few years I'd be over in a flash
Anyway, I might give it a bit of a go at a later date, see what I think. If you ever have the time or resources, a Sydney map would go down a treat, too. I attempted it a while back but couldn't find any suitable maps. Placing suburbs and industries is the easy part. For a local, anyway

I'll be over in Perth in November for Redbull AirRace, I'll do a comparison then!! (yeah, right...) I know we all love to stay on topic, but when ur uni becomes less demanding, maybe you should try to set a sydney map up.
Later chief.

Haha, I've tried before already, but failed miserably. Lack of good data was the main reason. couldn't find an appropriate map.

I can't be that hard to find a decent map of Sydney surely? Start with an overall greyscale map of the whole of Aussie, and then zoom in. Seriously, Aussie maps must be the most requested round here.

Everyone loves us! I've looked long and hard for a decent map. They tend to distort pretty badly if you zoom in too far. I tried it with one Nth QLD map, and it went a** up badly.

This map is not mod free. It requires something starting with A380F/ then the usual string of numbers. Could it be Zeak's A380?
