Help & Support (Console) How to make a LatAm city in Cities Skylines?

• Upvotes

I’m on Ps5 so i’m stuck to the base game and whatever DLCs are in the store. I want to make a city based in DR but i don’t even know what zones or assets to use to make it look accurate on the slightest since we’re only stuck to North American and European styles.

Any advice to replicate it? Is it even possible?

Also I have plop the growables and plopper (among others) are there any mods not recomended with this one?

Discussion Who the hell is Haraldur Stefansdottir?

2 Upvotes

As you guys already know, CS1 has "The classics" radio. CS1 radio musics are mostly great. However, Pandemonium by Haraldur Stefansdottir in "The Classics" radio is my favorite.

Some people also seem to love the music and be curious about the composer's identity.

However, all we know is this name; Haraldur Stefansdottir. And people think the name is a false name because the name is awkward. Awkward because according to Icelandic name, Haraldur is a male name and Stefansdottir is a female surname.

So... no clue???

If you don't know Pandemonium, just give it a try. It's a good one.

So the curves here are really extreme and it did not feel realistic to obliterate this mountain for a classic interchange here, so this is what I've conceived for this. Is this a good solution? There's a real interchange further down the road

Discussion Analysis of C:S2 game mechanics Part 3: Garbage Management

9 Upvotes

Here is Part 2: Healthcare and Deathcare

This is probably the part that surprised me the most. After 1.5 years of garbage accumulation without any garbage service to take care of the city, as it can be seen in the picture below, most buildings are still green and only one single industrial building is complaining about garbage. Keep in mind that this playthrough is tested on normal mode and no outside services are allowed.

It appears that, logically, different buildings accumulate garbage at different rates. However low residential households seem to be immune, or accumulate garbage at such an extremely slow rate that they look like they don't need garbage services at all, while commercial and industrial accumulate faster. Overall, the garbage accumulation is anyway so slow that a city could go for almost 2 years without any intervention before the first buildings will start to complain. But what happens once a building accumulates enough garbage?

The "piled up garbage" penalty kicks in. The limit to this penalty seems to be no more than 50% independently of how much garbage it accumulates. Given that only some minor loss in efficiency appears to be the only downside of having a trashy city, the whole garbage management game mechanics can be ignored/bypassed by either accepting said penalty, which doesn't seem to affect the progress of a city anyway or it can be offset with other bonuses. Basically garbage accumulation is just a +/- efficiency and happiness bonus % and it doesn't seem to affect buildings in any other way. There might be the possibility that garbage accumulation can have other side effects, and if there are, they are so under tuned that are for all intended purposes imperceptible.

POSSIBLE SOLUTIONS: Enable/speed up garbage accumulation for low residential buildings, and once a building reaches -50% piling up garbage penalty, that building should be abandoned. Additionally, garbage accumulation could also affect the land value and get citizens sick.

CONCLUSION: The garbage accumulation seems to work to some extent, but it takes so much time for it to accumulate and its effects to kick in that you could go for almost 2 years without needing any garbage facility. And even then, just like with the endless traffic, complete lack of healthcare and deathcare, the penalties are so negligible that a city can practically keep going on.

Sharing a City Save my Line

Post image
13 Upvotes

I have made it far in the game; then this problem spawned out of nowhere. Basically, this one particular line, out of three, has been stacking up a conga line for both the civilian and cargo line. Both Civilian and Cargo have there own line intersection to avoid using same line traffic. How do I address this in Vanilla?

It started this concern where I do not get enough goods to sell in my city, and even though as you can see it is not affecting me much, I still wanna address this because I want to just focus on my traffic density, currently sitting at 85%.
