Hello, what is the 'standard way' to provide culture?

[versed timber]

I don't know that all the buildings from Rio would exist for you to be able to do this. But is is in theory possible

[versed timber]

Ptag culture

The number next to the building name denotes the influence provided by the building. The buildings under the landmarks and awards are all vanilla. Landmarks costs diamonds to place (on mobile). The plugins in the image are only some plugins that provide cultural influence. You may be able to find many more on the plugin store.

[azure rune]

woot thanks alot

[hasty hound]

How to start? Is there a way to copy the landscape easily?

[versed timber]

Ptag heightmaps

[formal pike]

You want to make a region that resembles a real place? Use heightmaps!

1. Go to https://tangrams.github.io/heightmapper/ and find your wanted location.
2. Make sure that the colors are right. Black will become water and white will be hills.
3. Take a screenshot and change the name (example.jpg).
4. Put the image in your TheoTown folder, not in the subfolders.
5. Go to the region generator and and type in the image name (example.jpg).
6. Enjoy your new custom region!

[versed timber]

I'd suggest a heightmap of Rio

That'd be your best bet

[hasty hound]

huum, and after that, is there a way to copy the city roads?

[versed timber]

Those would have to be hand placed

I suppose you could turn on the labels in the heightmap to see if they show up however once brought into the game

How do I even build better roads

[violet musk]

Lane

Also don’t build cairo

[humble seal]

Cairo????

[earnest acorn]

True

XD

[earnest acorn]

Build public transport!

[hearty heart]

They have like 5 buses

And! The metro

[earnest acorn]

More!

More trains too

[violet musk]

2 and 1/2

(First is cairo second oslo)

[polar warren]

Add lamps benches and trees

[hot crypt]

Just a few more

[minor hazel]

hey guys, how are the event cities going?

[hot crypt]

Not even started

Might join in for the fun

If I make myself some time

[humble seal]

bad, using zones, having troubles with people to live in zones, can be in "-", (I think if the sandbox mode was available, cities would be better)

[versed timber]

Sounds like a skill issue xD

Just gotta grind it out

[neon plank]

The video on the dsa ptag

Is it still relevant

[versed timber]

The basics yes

[celest moon]

Haven't made any progress :(
I'm too busy with real life stuff.

[jagged dust]

Good morning

[deep wren]

isn't it lunch time in the phillippines? good day

[pseudo thunder]

Hey what’s the best way to get free gems

[deep wren]

daily rewards IMO

there is also a code for 42 free gems: chrs05

and there is a sharing link function for diamonds that you can open like 5 times or so

after that i would say watching advertisements and bus station idle mini-game, but advertsements are certainly the fastest if you need like 1000 diamonds in a day or two.

[manic hinge]

Where do I type in the code for these gems

[deep wren]

Shop -> Redeem Code

i believe chrs05 is the only one that every person can enter, all other codes are one time only i believe

[manic hinge]

My man thanks bro

[unkempt badger]

Guys one question, is there a feature where like it’s multiplayer but, 2 mayors and 1 town, is that possible?

[deep wren]

no, but you could probably send a file between a friend back and forth, but not work on a city at the same time.

[unkempt badger]

Oh well ok thanks, @deep wren

Hello

Bye

[woven leaf]

Hi just wanted to ask how do you decrease polution in the industry zones mine is all red

[earnest acorn]

Use DSA walls

Or bomb the industrial zone

[earnest acorn]

That's what I did

It worked

[woven leaf]

Whats that

[earnest acorn]

Walls

[woven leaf]

Then they would need the industrial zones xd

Or want

[woven leaf]

At least it isnt that bad

[plain willow]

I have 246 plugins

[celest moon]

Rookie numbers

[plain willow]

Compared to you, yes xd

[azure rune]

Maybe check what happens when you cut PURPLE connection to transfer that traffic to the highway. Also making a new connetion at RED could help. I am noob though -> so not sure.

[manic hinge]

God dam I lost millions misplacing the airport buildings and removing it on mobile🥲

[unreal crypt]

There's a useful plugin to decrease pollution effectively.

Air purifier

[manic hinge]

If I have 1 airport and just 1 city is there no point In building a airport? I can't see the usage % like metro trains

[muted arrow]

u can use animated tree plugin for decrease polution xd or air purifier

[neon plank]

What bout that dsa zone and road

[violet musk]

Trees for realism

[shell goblet]

It’s weird there is no hotels like motel 6, days inn, holiday inn etc

[native grail]

Is it normal for a car to crash and catch fire in the middle of the street? 💀

[earnest acorn]

Why's FBI speaking russian???

[plain willow]

Lol

[lament kernel]

Does anyone know some good european looking level 3 and level 2 residential?

I feel like theres not enough variety with those buildings and building them manually would take a great amount of time.

[earnest acorn]

That's what I was looking for,lemme send u what i found

[lament kernel]

Thanks!

[versed timber]

Emulators are allowed xD

[versed timber]

What about them?

[fallow minnow]

Bro please tell me how been tryna figure this out for months now

[versed timber]

They said lmao

Use an emulator

All the downsides of android with none of the PC benefits

[fallow minnow]

Okay sorry not very experienced with the emulators but I will figure it out thank you

😂

[versed timber]

I'd suggest Googling the basics

[neon plank]

Well

In the vid the guy created a whole separate industrial zone with dsa roads

[versed timber]

Ptag supplies

[formal pike]

Each of these (32) buildings provide your rocket with supplies. They are delivered to the rocket by trucks. Each truck supplies the rocket with 1 supply. Due to this, it is important to have as many of these buildings as close to the launchpad as possible, with roads that are properly connected to ensure that the supplies are delivered. The id and level has been included for your convenience so you can find it more easily!
https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/367299681635794954/1306116701234135080/supplies_new_img.png?ex=67357f78&is=67342df8&hm=dd30f1f0beba9669eb82c87647a3683f25cee4163141847ddb26643a7e4009f0&

[neon plank]

And I was wondering if I can just switch the roads in my industrial to dsa and connect them to the building

[versed timber]

Likely for this usage

[neon plank]

I have this

[versed timber]

You don't need to do that, but that's user choice

[neon plank]

What does it do

[versed timber]

I'd assume just make it so that you don't have to deal with all the other industrial traffic

But tbh I'm not sure any of the rosds work like that

So it'd likely be a waste of time

Don't think in to it too much mate

[neon plank]

Nah it's just I have no idea how all this dsa works even after watching the vid

[versed timber]

It's pretty simple lol

Your literally over thinking it

[versed timber]

Just build the various required buildings. And when you need supplies for rocket launches follow this message

[nocturne lotus]

Idk what to do for Hobart ngl

[nocturne lotus]

I figured it out

[orchid citrus]

Noob here, how do I merge cities together 😭. Trying to make it look more all together

[versed timber]

You cannot once the region is made

[orchid citrus]

Oh okay

[shell goblet]

Is there a specific tutorial on making roads? I want to make a one way road that is one lane not 2.

[versed timber]

That'd require a plugin

[shell goblet]

let me rephrase what I meant. Is there a specific plugin tutorial on making roads? I want to make a one way road that is one lane not 2.

I see plenty of other type but not road specific.

[tiny laurel]

You are not Russian?

[versed timber]

Even if they are. If you'd like to speak Russian you have to use the proper channel #language-bar

[versed timber]

https://forum.theotown.com/viewtopic.php?f=41&t=2964

Perhaps this is what your looking for?

[quiet harness]

anyone know how I can make good a looking highway exit/entrance with this

[shell goblet]

Yea I seen that but how do you start like it doesn’t tell you what program to use i guess.

[versed timber]

Ptag plugin creation

[formal pike]

Step 1: Download a baseplate of your choice It is recommended to keep it small if you are just starting.
Step 2: Download a pixel drawing app. It is recommended that you get one with layers and transparency options. You can find a list of suggested options here
Step 3: Here are some tutorials that show how to make a house. One by Theo and one by Kulche
Here's a tutorial by rtobby that provides tips on improving the plugin quality
You may find more tutorials in the getting started page and on the forum
And even more tips pinned in plugin discussion
Step 4: Last step is to create a json. You can create one by using PCA or use this tutorial here to make one. To make one manually, you can use any text app which allows you to save files as a .json
Feel free to ask for help or suggestions on the forum or on the server

Bonus step: Once done, you can upload your plugin on the store which once approved can be downloaded in-game by anyone or post it on the forum showcase or both! Remember that store plugins must oblige to the store rules

[versed timber]

That's a word soup

[bold acorn]

Guys should we add the entire solar system in the game :b

[versed timber]

There are suggested apps pinned on #plugin-discussion

[versed timber]

Sound like alot of work xD

[bold acorn]

Do venus and mars first then

[versed timber]

Still sounds like a decent ask for two devs

Seeing as the moon only exists for DSA

[bold acorn]

Make it so As the more ranks you unlock the more you discover planets existance

[versed timber]

I don't really see a need for that and I doubt the devs would either

[bold acorn]

Hmmmm okay add a system and gui for research and calculate planets then

[versed timber]

Again... why lmao

This is a city builder

Not a planet colonization game

[shell goblet]

Is there not an IOS version? Would I just need to use a PC?

[versed timber]

You'd just need to find an app that can do pixel art

[shell goblet]

Does coding come in to play when making them only use one lane of a 2 lane road?

[versed timber]

Not to my knowledge. Just basic json

[shell goblet]

O man what is json? lol

[versed timber]

The coding you were referring to

It's just not technically coding

[shell goblet]

So you could essentially take a current created road and adjust the json in it?

[versed timber]

I suppose

[shell goblet]

Interesting as I have a one way road one lane but I want to change the side of the road that is used.

[candid drift]

Make whatever you want, just let fly your imagination ☺️🙏

[pastel basin]

Then why is the game set up to not allow google play games beta?

[versed timber]

If I had to guess it's because there's already a PC version

Wouldn't make much sense for the devs

Furthermore, most people that play PC games don't want mobile elements in their games

But these are just guesses. I am not a dev so I can't really tell ya

[plain willow]

Yes, but i know it

[cerulean lotus]

But it's frowned upon

Never knew this game was on pc until recently, glad to finally have it on something more powerful than a phone 😅

[versed timber]

We hope you enjoy!

[shell goblet]

Frowned upon??? Seriously. Why?

[flat jewel]

The fact it's the exact same game just as I remember it but in 1080p is glorious lmao, loving it 👍🏻

[versed timber]

Because if it's not yours then why would we reasonably want people to do that...

[versed timber]

And the nice added benefit of no IAPs

Plus imo, the PC version can handle alot more plugins

[flat jewel]

Oh yeah that's a huge plus

[versed timber]

Overall a very nice experience

it also wont dm

[bronze moon]

Giving it settler role should fix

[versed timber]

I tried

They said it didn't

[bronze moon]

Strange

[versed timber]

So we're working on it in DMs

[bronze moon]

Alrighty

I'll stay out of it again :)

[versed timber]

xD

No problem!

[bronze moon]

alternatively you can verify members nowadays, worth a temporary shot?

[versed timber]

You know

I didn't think of that

[bronze moon]

:)

[violet musk]

Although using what? (Usually verification may use an external app such as another website or game link)

[versed timber]

Using admin perms

[violet musk]

So manually?

[versed timber]

Discord will let us manually verify users so they can chat

We aren't verifying their account perse

Just verifying they are real

[violet musk]

Ah ok

[bronze moon]

"Verify member"

[violet musk]

Ah ok

I’m trying to play a game so if my messages are just ah ok keep it in mind

[versed timber]

Maybe I am blind but I don't see that option on PC xD

[bronze moon]

No worries, enjoy

[versed timber]

Is this the once thing that mobile can do that PC can't for some reason?

[bronze moon]

Let me check

[bronze moon]

Works on my laptop

[versed timber]

Am I blind

[bronze moon]

maybe?

[versed timber]

Ahhh

Right clicking the name

I never tried that

[bronze moon]

:)

discord modding 101 come on evan

[violet musk]

Slum zone

[verbal rose]

are fraight trains uselsess?

[neon plank]

how do i theotown on pc

[versed timber]

Buy it off steam

Or figure out how to use an emulator

[celest moon]

Sorry if I'm wrong but i think they are useless

[verbal rose]

Google play (beta) if you want the mobile ver on pc

[versed timber]

I don't think it's on there lmao

[verbal rose]

it is

[versed timber]

Oh that's news to me

[versed timber]

Do that then

[versed timber]

^ See above

[verbal rose]

kinda sadge

this is a really cool game but its too sandbox for me

i would prefere more micromanagement :)

or at least there should be a mode that does that

[versed timber]

Sounds like you'd prefer OpenTTD

[verbal rose]

heard about it

is it on mobile tho

[versed timber]

not sure

check xD

[verbal rose]

oh no way it is nice

gonna have both installed

and depending on the mood play either one

[onyx scarab]

Hey what's is the most annoying thing in theotown?

[candid drift]

Private plugins

[amber root]

Modular Build with no rotation awarness

awareness*

[celest moon]

Easy fix: don't rotate your map

But i guess it's annoying for some people

[amber root]

i make detailed cities(sometimes), i cannot live without clicking the rotate button

[queen moon]

my airport messed up

[clear flax]

Hello IM newbie

[deep wren]

i'm relatively new too

[candid drift]

Me too

[wary hull]

uh

[neon plank]

Alr I got theotown on pc

But I can't find my main region on my phone

[unreal crypt]

Check your TheoTown folder and then you can find them out.

[deep wren]

barely even readable 🥲

[deep wren]

can copy it manually

[neon plank]

huh

wdym

[deep wren]

are you trying to use your PC main region on your mobile?

or vice versa

[neon plank]

mobile to pc

[wary hull]

what more you want read?

[deep wren]

then you can open This PC\PHONE NAME\Internal shared storage\Android\data\info.flowersoft.theotown.theotown\files\regions\REGION NAME and copy it into C:\Users\PC NAME\TheoTown\regions

Ptag files

[formal pike]

TheoTown files are located under such directories:

• Windows: C:\Users(insert username)\TheoTown or %USERPROFILE%\TheoTown
• Linux: ~/TheoTown
• MacOS: /user/TheoTown
• Android: /storage/emulated/0/Android/data/info.flowersoft.theotown.theotown/files
  By default you should be in /storage/emulated/0/. Uninstalling the game on Android will delete all files, unless you decide to keep the files when prompted by uninstaller. (android 11 onwards restricts access to external storage for apps, so if the files cannot be accessed this way, opt for the in-build manager explained below)
• ios: Search "TheoTown" in the file manager app

If you cannot access game files through these directories, game has an in-built file manager for mobile devices which is accessible from the region view menu.

You can find your plugin, music, region and city files there as well as logs for debugging purposes.

[barren anvil]

what is the different between theotown PC and Mobile?

[celest moon]

PC version is premium, which means no diamonds, no ads

[barren anvil]

no diamonds?

[safe kettle]

How can you all manage the traffic?

[deep wren]

Ptag traffic

[formal pike]

Directory Some tips on how traffic works & how to design around these tips.

Traffic Directory:

Your citizens need an quick and efficient path from point A to Point B. The AI will decide to take the shortest path, rather than the fastest.

Residential -> Commercial & Industrial [Citizens Commuting to Work]
Industrial -> Commercial [Goods Being Transported to Shoppes]
Commercial -> Industrial [Trucks Returning to Factory of Origin]
Industrial & Commercial -> Residential [Citizens Returning to Home of Origin]

Layout Tips:

Your Industrial & Commercial Zones should be close to a Main Road so they have easy access to the entire city.
Your Residential Zones should be close to your Commercial Zones, but further away from your Industrial Zones due to pollution.

Be sure to use a healthy mix of two-way and one-way roads in your Residential Zone to keep traffic orderly.

Here's an image of how you could lay your city rid down:

[full dew]

why so complicated

just use one way to the edge of the map so car can be disappear

[unreal crypt]

Citizens: I know there's a closer road to the destination, but I...

They just travel further and idk how to solve that.

[glacial vine]

They are protesting the toll both by paying to it 🌝

[thin crag]

Does anyone can invite me to londoncuz server?

[unreal crypt]

lmao

these irrelevant cars cause severe traffic jams here btw.

[glacial vine]

Yea traffic is weird, I saw truck go circle like why lol

Event city reminds me of those traffic jam xd

[unreal crypt]

Maybe this point will be solved optimised in the upcoming version.

Keep these foolish guys 500 miles away from that toll station!

[glacial vine]

[rustic wigeon]

City of Palinka

[unreal crypt]

Maybe you can meet the best intersection tutorial videos on YouTube and then your inspirations booms.

[plain willow]

Is there a plugin for stairs?

[rustic wigeon]

Literally need this

The castle walls do work

[rustic wigeon]

As stairs as you can see in my thing

But a proper staircase can't see

[plain willow]

Ok

Thanks

[unreal crypt]

Hmm does i13 walls have the same effect? Maybe you can have a look then.

[fair lagoon]

can anyone help me build my city I’m going through it right now

[jagged dust]

Can yall convince me to play ttown again? Got bored of it 😡😤

[cedar crag]

[unreal crypt]

What's the matter with your city, Mr.Mayor?

[jagged dust]

To hard I'll get distracted and fail exams

[fair lagoon]

I feel like it’s very innafectivr but I really like how it is

[unreal crypt]

wdym innafectivr?

[plain willow]

How to make it flat?

[glacial vine]

Can’t

[unreal crypt]

flat stairs how?

[glacial vine]

It’s a very confusing question, but I manage to understand lol

She want the stair to be on the slope

[plain willow]

Yeah

[unreal crypt]

alr I got it lol.

[plain willow]

I want the land to be flat so it matches stairs

[safe kettle]

if it was your plugin you could simply set handle y

but I assume it is not

[plain willow]

Yeah

[glacial vine]

@plain willow use this, he already answered you lol

[unreal crypt]

Like this effect?

[glacial vine]

Yes xd, is this castle wall?

[unreal crypt]

Yea.

[glacial vine]

Got it, thank you xd, I think I missed this specific texture one

Gonna check further later xd

[unreal crypt]

This pack includes 5+ different kinds of walls.

[glacial vine]

Yesss

[plain willow]

I will use castle then

[unreal crypt]

Ima planning use these Walls to build castles btw. But before that I'd complete other areas.
They are still empty enough, with <1% completion.

I really enjoy that time when urban gradually going green.

And then I'll nuke it when my city has 500k population.

[glacial vine]

🌝

[plain willow]

Finally

[glacial vine]

Nice

[unreal crypt]

Is that a monument or smth else?

[fair lagoon]

It just doesn’t seem right

[unreal crypt]

Lol Ive looked it up and my e-dictionary indicated that it's an Italian word.

Thank you

[eternal yoke]

Yo, can anyone tell me how to get millions easily, I have a 100k income but Im having a hard time getting enough money to launch the rockets to space

[versed timber]

Taxes

Up em abit

[eternal yoke]

I already got it to 8%, I tried to 9% but everyone started leaving

[versed timber]

9% is the max before people get really unhappy

But yeah I suppose it could do more harm than good

[eternal yoke]

Guess I'll just go to my old reliable afk

[versed timber]

That is probably the best bet yeah

[unreal crypt]

If you are playing on mobile, I remembered you can convert your diamonds into TTT coins.
(I'm not sure about it.)

[versed timber]

Oh you can I am pretty sure

[eternal yoke]

Well it is a lot of diamonds and I only get 1mili for like 600 diamonds if I remember right

[candid drift]

Like you know 😂💀

[shell goblet]

What causes this?

[candid drift]

I think you don’t put the texture in the center 🤔

[shell goblet]

So needs to be aligned inside the template perfectly I take it.

[versed timber]

Make sure you're cropping the bottom of the png as well

[sullen hearth]

Why am I forced to play with snow on just because it's winter irl?Is there a way to turn it off or not?

[versed timber]

Turn it off in the settings

[versed timber]

@undone dome @broken urchin okay mate you have to pick one account or the other. They can't both be here

[lapis stag]

bro my sister shut down my computer while i had theotown open 💀

[shell goblet]

Copying the bottom?

Why is there not a good walk through of complete process in one video showing how to do the plugin making. No wonders there is not many good plugins as it’s so frustrating to understand. What should be easy. Make the learning easier so the game can grow…

[versed timber]

I also said cropping

Which is a basic photo editting term

And it's only frustrating to understand if you choose to not read the resources. It's no ones job here to walk you through the process. But also

#plugin-discussion message

Here's your video

Thank me later

[candid drift]

Where can in find this website please 🙏

I wanna learn more

😁

[brave mural]

Disaster

[shell goblet]

Well what the heck! I finally got it to show up and able to build but now this is happening??? It’s way off somehow

[versed timber]

What does the code say?

[shell goblet]

Where do I find the code?

[versed timber]

The json you made?

[shell goblet]

It says a lot of things

Which area?

[versed timber]

So then send it...

And in the future please use #plugin-support

[celest moon]

Idk we've been getting some nice plugins and a ton of new plugin creators that make decent stuff this year.

[distant oak]

I finally bought military pack.

[thin crag]

Infinite money glitch

[unreal crypt]

1 per pass lol.
Then they complain about it and my city satisfaction decreases a little.

There is a large traffic flow so I can gain ~1.2k extra per month.

[brave mural]

Disaster 2

Disaster 3

[shell goblet]

Just wish there was a focus on things that are lacking and not some of the same stuff over and over.

[shell goblet]

Crickets over there…

[versed timber]

okay?

Use the proper channel

For all I care you could use #plugin-discussion but if you want legit help with your issue then use those channels

[rustic wigeon]

Stairs how

Mega project

[deep wren]

in what way?

[rustic wigeon]

Jus a really big city

[deep wren]

how many pops?

[rustic wigeon]

Idk im jus buildin

Don't rlly care bout the pop

[deep wren]

that picture is not available

[rustic wigeon]

Guh

I'll post it once I'm done

Im lazy I don't like doing the roqds

So I'm jus using vanilla roads lmfao

[deep wren]

if i was to start a mega project, i would probably build very very high density structures, such as arcologies instead of just making it wide

[rustic wigeon]

That's for pop

[deep wren]

for inner-city i use vanilla as well, but i'm new to the game

[rustic wigeon]

Im jus lazy

I can do roads I've done one before but

I wanna do a desert city for my grand map

And I can't decide

Whether I want massive skyscrapers

But I already built a giant podoga

[deep wren]

there is a nice plugin that has a great color for desert style cities

[rustic wigeon]

What is it

[deep wren]

Res Building Pack by The26

the buildings are sand stone color, very nice

[rustic wigeon]

Thankss

It's great

[deep wren]

yeah i am planning to use them myself when i start a desert city at one point in the future

[rustic wigeon]

Hm

I need

Some statues andshit

[deep wren]

there aren't many statues to be honest 😦

i probably have to make some myself as well as one point

[amber root]

hello chat

bye chat

[celest moon]

"Same stuff over and over" Like buildings?
You know just maybe let people do their stuff. Let them make anything however they want.

If you think some things feel lacking in this game then you have a chance to change that. Nobody is stopping you, add things that the game desperately needed like low-mid rise buildings or more industrial buildings.

Anyway, i hope your plugin issue is fixed.

[deep wren]

if you have specific wishes, you can get a lot done, by recoloring existing plugins and removing or copying floors tbh.

[slender pumice]

Hey guys. I have a question. How do you get rid of pollution after an earthquake or pollution in general?

[upper bear]

Don't Build your factory close to citys

[safe kettle]

remove the rubble

[glass anvil]

I'm planning to make Barcelona, Spain what plugin should I download? Buildings and road decorations is what I need

[unreal crypt]

use plugins to reduce pollution or assume it doesn't exist.

[hazy ember]

are loans deactivated intentionally in the winter scenario city?

[cerulean lotus]

Got any ideas of changing this terrain into a big city?

My custom région accidentally got these mountain all over the map

[hushed pebble]

Rate?

[wanton rain]

make a rural city like in Brazil idk

[cerulean lotus]

@hushed pebble my ideal city is like this but my terrain is treacherous

[hushed pebble]

This? I wanted to make terrain map too, but sometimes flattening the surface makes my financial pain getting big xd

But i like to make Elevated highway and train tunnels when i do one

[cerulean lotus]

Me too
Flattening takes too much money

And my region is almost a upper part of a river, makes it a valley capital

Cool but costly

[hushed pebble]

Heh

Btw may i know the seed for that map? Looks unique

I usually avoid a riverside-type map

And pick seaside/large lake instead

[cerulean lotus]

Okay, I can get for you, just is there way to see back the generated seed

[hushed pebble]

Idk? Maybe you can view it from city stats in game

[hushed pebble]

You might need nuke powerplant mod or waste to plant service, both give a large amount of power supply but different influence (the nuke is cost free and don't have an actual nuke/dummy but large power, while waste plant is combo between Waste disposal and energy supplier)

[cerulean lotus]

Seed:77845588
Terrain: Normal
Biomes: Rainforest

[cerulean lotus]

I’ve got the waste energy one, but it costs 300k, expensive enough for the situation now

[bitter glade]

Helloo

How can i fixed this🤣 i'm new in this game, please help me haha

[glass anvil]

Change into one way road that's the only thing I do

Or just some roadway

[unreal crypt]

nuke it

[candid drift]

What is this in dense residential areas?

the red and blue things

[jovial igloo]

kites aparently

https://tenor.com/view/fly-the-kite-playing-enjoyment-timepass-kite-gif-2292387167152381155

thought it was a baloon for a long time

[candid drift]

oooh i just noticed the people down there

thanks lol

[candid drift]

how do I fix people not building here?

[jovial igloo]

mmhhh

your town are still rather small

if youre a big country people would start building large uh. 6x6 skyscrappers

but since youre not, theyre not going to build there yet

so.. consider building smaller zones if you want it to be fully constructed

orr, you could make a road acces leading to the middle, (might cause major traffic jam)

[hushed pebble]

Not possible unless you build a road around there

[candid drift]

oh

so in the future

[hushed pebble]

Or, manually build a larger building, but it may cost you more demands and features in city

[candid drift]

people will build there?

[fair lagoon]

does anyone have a reference on what my airport should look like

[hushed pebble]

Nice

Other than power, water, fire, police
Here are the basic needs of different buildings:

Residential
: health
: health + park + low education
health + park + sport + low education + high education

Commercial
: (none extra)
: park
: park + sport

Industrial
& : (none extra)
: park

[jovial igloo]

i dont think this helps that much in this scenario ngl

[hushed pebble]

Built a second Residential area and a Rest area between the connecting roadways

[south bobcat]

Bigger buildings.

[candid drift]

alright thanks

[candid drift]

so people will built in the empty areas

in future

?

[jovial igloo]

just.. keep expanding your city

[south bobcat]

Yes,in form of bigger buildings.

[jovial igloo]

people will eventually build larger and larger houses

especially when theyre happy

[candid drift]

alrighty thank u guys

i love seeing people reconstruct buildings in this game

its so satisfying

[candid drift]

building dense residentials is better than building normal residentials?

[south bobcat]

Dense zone = Urban Area.

[candid drift]

alright

thank u!

[candid drift]

do you recommend removing these and replacing them with dense areas? I want it to be a main area

[hushed pebble]

Friend, do you have any suggestions or advice on how to reduce traffic jam?

I've already built multiple road networks with expanded intersections but there are still traffic jams on certain areas

[hushed pebble]

No need tbh, you just need to build Public infrastructure like park, school (low-high edu), larger police, hospital, and fire station with some sports centre to boost the citizens happiness and grade, they will built a larger population in these areas and larger buildings by the time goes

Medium to Wealth Citizens demand complete services, including sports, park, public service, and worshipping places

[candid drift]

alright tysm yall are so helpful

[glacial vine]

Art 🌝

[candid drift]

if i buy underground wires, does it stay forever?

[jovial igloo]

of course

[candid drift]

great

its a lifesaver ngl

[bitter glade]

I see, can i see your city bro?

[turbid coral]

Its great, you must buy it

Or not if your diamonds not enough

[brave mural]

Okay does anyone have any recommendations I want a city with hills but anytime I try to build one with hills it looks ugly so I just go flat

[plain willow]

city with hills is very uncomfortable to build

[candid drift]

i did! by the way, is dense residential more wealthy?

or is it the same wealth as normal residential

[turbid coral]

It did not affect wealthy resident i think, it just a cable but underground

[candid drift]

oh no

i mean zones

like

is dense residential more wealthy than residential

?

[brave mural]

A new Danish City with hills I will show progress!!

[candid drift]

oof i can't play 21:9 with the play games beta program

[sharp bough]

Nu, dense residential just means there are more people in the zone, so for example, you can get low income residential buildings, which is like a shacks and small houses, but you could also get low income density buildings like uhm townhouses and low rent apartments, the same with medium income and high income

[sharp bough]

The beta program is gud tho

[candid drift]

nah it's unplayable

jokes

[sharp bough]

Potato phone enjoyer

Or PC enjoyer

[candid drift]

this is my first try at pc

[sharp bough]

Pc version is cool

Do U get plugins for free?

Or no ingame plugin store?

[versed timber]

Steam version has free plugins, and in general no IAPs

[sharp bough]

That basically makes diamonds redundant lol

[versed timber]

If you were to use the GPGB however that would be the same as the mobile version

[sharp bough]

For its price it's a steal

[versed timber]

There are no diamonds on the steam version

and I'd agree!

[sharp bough]

Ye, I guessed that lol

Man this game has changed like crazy

I remember when the logo of the game was the white house thingy with the spruce tree lol

[versed timber]

Well we hope you'd agree it's changed for the better!

[sharp bough]

Ofc it did! All of the dev team deserves many congratulations and as do other peeps working or maintaining this game

[versed timber]

They always appreciate to here the kind words 🙂

[neon plank]

Yo

W devs

OOOOO

IM A SETTLER let's gooo

[sharp bough]

Congrats, idk what that role is whatsoever

[neon plank]

It's when you become lv5

And every 5lvs u get a new role

[sharp bough]

Oh there is a xp system

[versed timber]

ye

[sharp bough]

Cool

[neon plank]

Until recently I didn't know either

[sharp bough]

Man if I joined this discord server when it was created, I could be level 999 or something

[neon plank]

Too bad bc I think max is 100

[sharp bough]

Lmao

[neon plank]

All I do here is ask a question and check 4 hours later

And I still lved up to 5 somehow

[sharp bough]

The xp gods reward consistency ig

[neon plank]

Not new to the game js don't know how some things work

[sharp bough]

I feel you lol, I played since December 2015

[neon plank]

Wow

[sharp bough]

Oh man, everything has changed practically

[sharp bough]

I was a stupid child back then, loved placing roads for some reason, what a time to be alive

[neon plank]

Eg I got no idea what is a bus road
I just put the bus stops on country or one way roads and set a bus route there

[neon plank]

Lmao

[sharp bough]

Bus roads are bus only roads

[neon plank]

What if I put bus stops on normal roads

Wich is what im doing

[sharp bough]

Buses stop at the road but may block cars

[neon plank]

Still increases transport happiness

[sharp bough]

When they are like stopping

[neon plank]

I don't see buses

There aren't any

[sharp bough]

Yea the bus road is there to help seperate the buses from the traffic

[neon plank]

On the roads or at least I don't see them

[sharp bough]

So there is this building called a bus depot

Very nifty thing

[neon plank]

Ik I have it

[sharp bough]

Click on it

[neon plank]

And lrob 6 buses in it

All lv 10

[sharp bough]

Ok now

Assign the busses a route

[neon plank]

Done

[sharp bough]

Crazy, the busses don't show?

Lemme check rq

Brb

[neon plank]

Nope

I've never built a bus road

Maybe they only show up there

[sharp bough]

See that blue bus

[sharp bough]

They show up on every road apart from pathways

[neon plank]

Thit is a bus?😭

Maybe I have them

I was expecting something like on the building itself

[sharp bough]

I used country roads and the little bus is still there

[versed timber]

The busses get larger as you level them up

[sharp bough]

Ye

[neon plank]

How bigger

Mine are at lv10

[sharp bough]

By leveling it more

[neon plank]

So infinite?

[versed timber]

I think they reset visuals after level 100

[neon plank]

What does that mean

[versed timber]

It makes once you level it up to level 100 then it becomes the minibus again

[neon plank]

So lv99 would be as big as it gets

[versed timber]

I think it's another every 10 levels thing

[carmine spindle]

I'm pretty sure you're right

[stiff basin]

started my new project

[neon plank]

Alr

[neon plank]

Looks fresh and breeze in the middle of le jungle

Perhaps go with a farm for the start, don't build Industrial zones and pollute the jungle

2 hours later- got some farms and a small industrial zone, also a railway plugin

[candid drift]

guys

whenever I build a new zone and click add roads, it adds a dirt road

how can i change it so that it automatically puts country

[cerulean lotus]

Add by yourself, or disable “Add roads” at the upper right corner

yeah i don't think you can change that, but building roads first is probably a better practise to begin with, it doesn't take much time and you have much greater influence over the layout and it will look better in the end
