So few pointers...never build industry next to your residential areas it makes all the citizens sick due to ground pollution, hence so many sick citizens in your city...replace all of your dump yards with incinerators, try to create public transport system, it reduces amount of cars on streets hence allowing service vehicles to reach their destinations quickly...also it increases demand for all zones

for the dam to produce energy the water level has to reach the edge almost at the top of the dam, you just have to wait for it to fill up or lower the dam itself.

@AltarinTV4 жыл бұрын
@@BiffaPlaysCitiesSkylines i know you will probably not look at this. But the reason dam isnt producing power is most probably because your pumps are taking too much water from behind the dam and thus the dam doesnt have enough water to even start. few episodes ago you were wondering why there is so little water in the river, and since than you added even more water pumping stations.

@rdpeake8 жыл бұрын
Doing a bit of a search, i think you need to move your dam back slightly as it seems to work on the difference in height between the 2 water levels. When you rebuilt it i think you built it slightly further forward in hopes of more power - which then causes it to break with how the game processes the dams. looking at the end of the level, it may be that the bottom of the dam is above the level of the water in front, so it will not let any water out... Though, whilst there is no water flow, you may want to try adjusting the walls or alter the flood plane/river bed...

Day behind on my videos. This is a start of video comment so sorry if I missed a later in vid followup. Skylines no longer needs deleting abandoned buildings. They will be reinhabited if demand. The drawback though is abandoned buildings lower land value, is why many people delete them. But that said, lower land value won't stop people moving in if there is demand. I have been doing that in my current city. I had a large abandonment due to an issue, got demand up and they all got taken over.
@BiffaPlaysCitiesSkylines8 жыл бұрын

Unless it has been changed from the non disasters version, should still work. I overbuild an industrial area during my afterdark/winter play in my current city. Result was a mass abandon from lack of workers. Didn't bulldoze a building. Bulldozing does get the area rebuilt quicker plus as you pointed out, the land value.
