A road hierarchy is a system for categorizing roads. Road networks worldwide are typically organized according to one or more schemes:

Functional classification reflects a roadโ€™s intended role, balancing mobility (efficient through movement) and access (reaching properties) by defining a clear hierarchy from arterials (including limited-acces...

She prefers medium sized plots cuz it's easier to make small cities/towns

whole plover
ornate wraith
#

No its not that advanced in theotown @dapper roost , but the theory works well. so dont put huge living zones right next to a highway. rather have an arterial go there which also goes to other zones, which are called local roads

Well then, my new town's city layout is already drawn so I will also start to work on it

ornate wraith
#

At the top you see a highway, which is separated into an arterial, that goes into 2 parts of my city, the one you see down there and another one west. The intersection where it turns to the city is usually called a local road, but in this context it kinda stays arterial since its the only way out of that city. But you get the point @dapper roost

You can't use this app to test the beta either?

It's an official Apple app to be able to access betas of app store applications

can i stop the buildings from rotating when i rotate my map

jovial igloo
#

only a few buildings rotate

#

if it has 4 frames itll follow your map rotation

#

if not then it wont rotate unfortunately

fierce walrus
#

this plugin has 6 i think

jovial igloo

(im currently working on a plugin that adds rotation to vanilla buildings DuckPray )

fierce walrus

for instance,

#

wait

theyre the same ss

fierce walrus

again, as i said.

if it doesnt have 4 frames, it wont rotate

so any solution?

well, the plugin is like that

hmm okay mrc

It's pretty decent city and the roads are pretty much the problem; those dead ends on road outside the center needs to be connected to each other.

ornate wraith
#

My electricity broke too?

#

why

#

Im on 30p

#

and it either increased my electricity usage or lowered its production

#

im not sure which lol

versed crystal
ornate wraith
#

New beta upgrade changed electricity supply

#

idk either it broke the floating wind turbine plugin

#

or it just changed some base values

#

Thank you justanyone

#

finally the route is actually realistic

neat mango

elevated train does NOT give train transport influence anymore

for some reason

ornate wraith

no more OP plugins

What to do in this gaem

gentle oar
little surge
versed crystal
ornate wraith
#

So no more parks that cover 1/4th of the map

#

I think its a bit of an unnecessary change as it didnt really hurt not to have 7 parks in one zone as they didnt cover all of them. i think some of the ''op'' parks for example were more realistic than the ones we have rn.

#

But i guess devs know best

#

idk if it was used for cheating but im on pc anyway so idk

safe kettle

the entire plugin store and plugin related limitations make sense for the android version

idk therte wasnt any feedback channel so i just put it in suggestions

since theyre kinda integrated in my design

and i cant just start deleting everything and putting a bunch of other stuff in it

itd ruin my city

im waiting to arrive home to transfer all my cities

yeah but where

latent badge
#

so i dont lose anything

ornate wraith
#

i did complain on suggestions

#

but

#

idk

latent badge
#

i mean this is horrible, all beta testers may lost their cities

ornate wraith
#

nah if you revert back to normal versions its gonna be normal again

#

You will lose the transport though

#

main thing im worried about if that gets through to the final version

#

i dont like that at all

#

Very limiting to both city builders and plugin makers

#

so everybody

safe kettle
#

a simple solution would be to simply revert the changes to existing plugins and only apply the limitations to new ones

ornate wraith
#

Yeah ig so

#

or just limit it to a reasonable amount?

#

so usually, not the whole map

#

maybe make the limit by size and cost of whatever building?

#

or, like cities skylines, by road infrastructure. but thats looking too far i think

latent badge
#

not destroying all the entire cities that may have plugins

safe kettle
#

that might not be as simple though considering it's most likely the game that imposes those limits

#

and not the plugin store system

Greetings!
I need a little bit of advice:
Is there a way to increase wealth faster/attract more middle class and wealthy citizens? (besides decreasing taxes. I already keep them lower if in can afford doing so)
Or is it a slow process i gotta wait longer for?

fathom rune
#

What do you mean? Like, placing down the zones and letting the game autobuild in them?

fathom rune
#

I do place down zones but i build the buildings on them myself, according to the demands. Mostly because whenever i let the game autobuild, it spams the same buildings

#

Would letting it autobuild help me in this?

ornate wraith

Where can i complain

This one I don't agree with lol

#

Seeing as you've already made a suggestion

ornate wraith
#

I dont think thats the right place

versed timber
#

I think you've made your voice heard

ornate wraith
#

for a complaint in beta

#

alright

#

if you say so

versed timber
#

I think the devs will see that more than anywhere else lmao

ornate wraith
#

Okay i get you

versed timber
#

In days gone by we had a #beta-feedback, channel... but it got frequently misused so it was scraped

granite fern
# ornate wraith for a complaint in beta

Don't worry, they gather player insights, i just hope they balance it out properly, although i do agree with the plugin influence limitations cuz it's becoming too OP having 1 police station cover all the city

ornate wraith
#

But there was no such police station

#

And usually there is actually one police station per city...

granite fern
#

It was just an example

ornate wraith
#

Helsinki, a city of 600-800k has one singular police station

versed timber
#

I think if they want to keep this then they havw to beef up some stuff

#

In terms of vanilla values

ornate wraith
#

like there was this one park

#

which was kinda op

#

but everything else was fine

versed timber
#

I mean OP is relative lol

#

Anything that way out preforms the vanilla assets and doesn't scale costs correctly, would technically be OP

#

Because ya know OP is relatively to the game, and the gameplay intentions and what have you

ornate wraith
#

Nah. if it gets through moderation i dont think its op

versed timber
#

Though from the standpoint of, letting the player play how they want... it's harmful for sure

#

Then we just have two different definitions lmao

ornate wraith
#

also i paid for the game so i shouldnt have these limitations which are for people grinding gems

versed timber
#

I also paid for the game lmao

ornate wraith
#

ah i see

versed timber
#

And if the devs want to push me towards playing the game as intended... it's their game

ornate wraith
#

I mean

versed timber
#

Don't get me wrong, I don't like it

#

I think it's silly

ornate wraith
#

It is a city builder game, there is no intended strategy though

versed timber
#

But at the end of the day A) it's a beta so you get what you get

ornate wraith
#

there is no playing the game as intended

#

its by default a creative game

versed timber
#

By default it's a city building game

ornate wraith
#

and to make cities you must be...?

versed timber
#

It goes creative if you choose to make it so

#

But there's nothing inherently creative about placing zones, and matching radi of service buildings

#

Nature of the beast honestly

ornate wraith
#

Well be it anything, i dont think they should be pushing us towards anything

#

like

#

I mean

#

uhh

#

how do i explain this

versed timber
#

Maybe in one message would be ideal xD

#

And I get what you mean

#

I'm not saying that I agree with the change at all

ornate wraith
#

Yeah i know

#

just chatting to be honest

versed timber
#

I get it haha

ornate wraith
#

But i dont see limiting service boundaries helping anything, contributing to anything tbh

versed timber
#

Yeah I'd agree

#

It's not great...

#

And I'd really have to see how it's justified outside of the words to help with moderation

ornate wraith
#

Hey but we'll see if it makes into final, i'd like them to reduce the limit or ideally revert it back to what it was

#

yeah

versed timber
#

I do hope this is the one thing thag gets reverted back

#

I think it definitely hurts the player base

I appreciate the feedback but I really don't need any of this

granite fern
#

Oke

pulsar oyster
# granite fern Maybe any of these?

I dont think it makes very much sense to use army insignia in a city building game that doesn't really put a lot of emphasis on building an army

#

you could probably make a plug in for it if you really wanted

high osprey
#

I think evimeria is onto something kulche, a grenade could mean anything

#

the terrorists have a grenade wouldn't consider them a military force

#

Maybe change the icon to a bullet with a rank insignia at the head, and if u want grenades u can put tint balls at the bottom of the bullet

pulsar oyster
#

the grenade is good as is

New update

#

for beta

#

They did not remove the limits

#

aww

#

They adjusted them

#

alright ill see how it is now

#

But if my schools are still broken and dont influence at all im gonna complain again ๐Ÿคฃ

but what does over-the-air mean in this case?

Oh thanks evan i didnt even notice that channel

its not broken per se

#

it just got hit with them limits

granite fern

#

and so did many other plugins

#

like this one

versed timber
#

As per #information... if it still doesn't work after the update then note it in the proper place

alright

Thank ya

#

like I have ankhatori's big hospital and now it's range is like 10 tiles away from the building

versed timber
slow lance
#

yeah yeah I read it. but It doesn't make sense to me to brute force all existing plugins to fit in this rules, this will affect existing cities even by a little

versed timber
#

As it says for balancing

slow lance
#

like if it ain't broken don't touch it

versed timber
#

And playing the game as intended

#

If you make a game then you can make it as your please ๐Ÿ™‚

#

But getting people to play a game as you intend sometimes requires unpopular changes

#

Do I agree with it, not necessarily... but I understand it for sure

slow lance
#

game is a sandbox city builder, isn't it? like, if I create a plugin, that I don't distribute it, only for my city and my use, I'm gonna be capped to this change as well

#

so I'm not free anymore

versed timber
#

The game is a city builder at heart

#

Sandbox was added later on

slow lance
#

yeah sandbox I didnt mean by the mode, I mean by all the free play and possibilities, even in non-sandbox

versed timber
#

I mean no then lol

#

Any building game that inherently has limits via services and such is not just a sandbox

slow lance
#

like I only play on regular mode. I was a former plugin creator btw. I created in the past plugins for personal use that are like, big range small price, only for my use in a specific city, and didn't distribute it, and it will be capped by this new change

versed timber
#

So have I lmao

#

Like I said

#

I'm not agreeing with this change

#

But I think it's also incorrect to assume that the devs are making a bad choice by encouraging players to play within the games bounds

slow lance
#

can't theotown use flags like, buildings that were already built would not be affected by this change, or like already established cities not affected, only new ones

#

this would 'fix' it

versed timber
#

How would you even do that lmao

slow lance
#

yeah I'm just asking

versed timber
#

I think even leaving things that are grandfathered in, still would defeat the intent. But I do agree that would be helpful for the issye

granite fern
#

For me the balance is actually reasonable, like sticking the influence radius to both building height and monthly cost is actually true realistically

#

Image a small station with more than 200+ radius and very cheap cost

slow lance
#

yeah but in a city there isn't like a school every other block. with this change and using vanilla schools for example its necessary to do so

granite fern
#

That's way too unrealistic

versed timber
#

I think alternatively buffing the games vanilla values would help balance things out

#

Since some of those do have comically small

slow lance
#

like sometimes there is one firefighters headquarters for a whole city (in rl), and it's all good, no need for a firefighter every neighborhood, if the game's aiming for realism this should be addressed don't u think so

granite fern
versed timber
#

I think that's a stupid answer from him too

#

Generally, I just think the execution of this is... eh

granite fern
#

I never played sandbox mode, i don't like the concept of infinite money

versed timber
#

Don't get me wrong folks I am on your side on this

ornate wraith
#

otherwise im fine with it because i dont really care

#

But its not like really city buildery to assume that every street has its own school

#

I dont think thats how it should be done

slow lance
#

this is a SimCity thing to have an firefighter in every block, theotown doesn't need to be like this. one of the main aspects for me to like theotown is exactly this: the freedom, and, for me, capping something is totally opposite to freedom

ornate wraith
#

But if its relaxed enough i think its fine, but ill have to see it myself

#

the update hasnt been pushed yet

ornate wraith
granite fern
ornate wraith
#

i dont think youre understanding the point here

#

tall buildings does not always equal more reach

#

i think reach should actually work by road infra, not bubbles like rn

#

But thats besides my point anyway and thats a thing for the future

granite fern
#

Yeah, everything still on beta

ornate wraith
#

thing is though, rn i need to put a school on every 4th or 5th block which in my opinion is unreasonable

#

and does not look good

granite fern
#

We can expect it to change laterยฎ cuz this game IS a community driven game after all

ornate wraith
#

since there isnt many schools in cities anyway

#

check information

#

Im guessing thats here to stay

granite fern
ornate wraith
#

About same

#

But if i would take my part of the city (not for scale), theres 3 schools for like 20k people

#

2 of them being lower edu

#

1 of them higher

#

and no colleges

#

its an island of about 20km^2

granite fern
#

Yeah, rather strange for TheoTown to not have colleges

ornate wraith
#

thats higher edu

#

i think

granite fern
ornate wraith
#

or you mean universities?

#

like those proper things

granite fern
ornate wraith
#

I still dont know the difference xdd

#

but yeah there is 1 university in Helsinki

#

or like 2

#

So that should be a nice scale

granite fern
#

I'm still kinda glad i haven't used any QoL plugins outside the official ones

#

I'm not going to be heavily affected by the changes

ornate wraith
#

To be honest, theyre there because they need to be there. If theres a QoL plugin of some topic, that usually means the vanilla game has not got a solution for that

#

Usually with every game its the same

#

If theres QoL mods for any game on any topic in the game, that usually means that devs have not addressed it. But thats just my view of things

granite fern

all i know is that it just screwed all my values to nothing

Its mainly for phone users to not cheat

still no update push..

ill see tomorrow then

grizzled jacinth
#

yeah give it a bit its a slow rollout

#

all this made me think to ask how exactly do you guys use the game for, like i know some people play with the financial aspect of city building, but i for one play for the art of city and road design

#

i couldnt care less if the financials sit at a whopping negative million

does the beta update still nerf plugin's influences?

there's not many free culture influenced buildings in the game

the only building i know is just the Old Ducth Windmill

torn flume

I'm having the same problem

#

did you fix it?

high osprey
#

Did they "fix" the influence issue in the new update?

torn flume
#

what influence issue?

high osprey
#

There are some plugins that give a bigger influence, mainly schooling and culture. After second most recent update they nerfed those plugins so it'll be easier to moderate new plugins so it can be balanced. Unfortunately i was using one of those plugins mainly for schools and it totally killed like half my city

torn flume
#

I noticed something like that

winged gust
#

i don't know how

torn flume
#

i think its cause of my java's version or too many plugins

#

i have something around 800 plugins

yeah it was my java's version. You can try it too, I will send you the link

now its working normally

Is there a way to disable wahtever's in the game that thinks im ready to place a building

sometimes im counting how many tiles until im ready to put it down

#

i keep on having to exit and reclick the building until im ready

versed timber
#

What?

dire salmon
#

i click a building from menu planning to put it down

#

i see the green influence but im not ready to put it down yet

#

the game thinks im ready and i can't move it anymore and there's a button on top right

#

maybe a screenshot could help

versed timber
#

So

#

Stop clicking the building haha

#

Once you click the building, and then click the same place on the building that game interpretes it as a double click/tap

#

I assume that is what you're taking issue with

dire salmon
#

after x seconds the game stop letting me move my building in planning

#

and then there's a button in top right corner saying to build

versed timber
#

I'm pretty sure you can either just click a different tile or drag it and drop

that gets the new bus and train system in the game

it just disappeared for me

versed crystal

#

plugin? I got it via update

floral bone
#

its an update?

wide violet
#

The new bus and train system is

versed crystal
#

Let's say you have 50 buses and 200 routes lol you gotta manually press a lot of depots

wide violet
#

I don't see how you got 200 bus routes, that would mean maxing out 25 depots with the new system

floral bone
#

what do you mean new system

#

it was 16 bus routes per depot and i built a lot of depots in the plugin thing

wide violet
#

idk what happened, I just checked my app and it seems the system changed again since last time i used it

#

I don't have train routes anymore, I remember making train routes and assigning trains to them months ago

floral bone
#

my bus system just got reverted to the old one

I haven't been reading the update logs so probs I missed something

# safe kettle Ptag staged

A staged rollout means that only a certain percentage of users will get the update at a time. Meaning that the update will come over a matter of days to everyone, rather than all at once. We have no of choosing who get's the update when, it's totally random. So for now you just have to wait.

floral bone
#

aw

#

rip 200 bus lines

#

Maybe I don't want the update

I have just created my best city so far

no idea how do you think the update is going to "ruin" anything

#

but you do you

wide violet
#

So the train routes I was able to make before but now can't edit, was that a preview or experimental feature or smth?

safe kettle
#

what?

wide violet
#

In a city I remember train stations having a ui when tapped and being able go buy trains and plan routes between stations for trains, I can't do that now but I distinctly remember having done that within the past year at some point in this same city

#

It's like I got early access to a feature/system which has since been reverted

#

or smth
