Thanks for making this video so much. I played CS in 2017, 2019 and just resumed a few months ago. My newer cities worked fine, but my first thriving city never recovered from me re-organizing polluting industries in a new spot... Which I had replaced by tons of offices in old spot. The result was a deadlocked RSI indicator and the EXACT symptoms your city in this video had. After an hour of deleting large swats of industries and about half my office, the town seems to be picking up again. Not out of deadlock yet, but I can see better trafics, less demands for goods, industries not getting shutdown from "No Buyers for Products"... Feels like recovery to me :) Now you should've made this video back in 2017, but better late than never! Thanks a ton !

@n.zoltan81853 жыл бұрын
Thank you for this video, unlike my expectations finally it was useful :) So almost all of my bigger cities ended with this situations and at the end the population began to decline and die as well. I always believed that it is caused by some mods and/or because of low level of traffic low. At my latest game I hade population of 175 000, I had a nice traffic system, traffic flow was continuously above 80% everything was fine. I was thinking over my past failed games and I realized finally that most probably I generated this problem the same way. In earlier stage of games I build zones in small steps, I always added a small quantity of RCI zones. In later stage of the game I began to create huge district zones with well planned road /train network and I was adding huge amount of RCI zones in short time. In my latest game at population of 175 000 I was plan to create a district which will have create potentially additional 75 000 citizen. And I just was coloring everything with RCI zones in the same time. I think that was the key point which caused the change of balance and that started that negative spiral. I was also adding residential zones even if there was no demand because even with this there was population increase and houses were built. Till your video, based on my everyday logic I was not destroying back the already working zones as I believed if I destroy commercial zones, it will create even less demand for industrial zones which will create even less workplace and it will create a negative spiral. Till your video I was not taking care of unemployment rate at all. In my latest game I was checking it because of You and I was shocked when I realized that unemployment rate was 45%. So finally I began to destroy back the commercial zones. I'd say I was destroying approx. 20-30% of existing commercial zones, and about 15-20% of industrial zones which seem to be very dramatic change for me and I was almost sure that it will fill follow by huge population decrease. But finally the population was not decreasing, and after some time the commercial demand began to appear and I could be able to rebuild the destroyed zone. Important to say that this rebuild needed patient, both from time perspective, both from that perspective that I was re-add the commercial zones in very small quantities because if I added too much, the demand quickly fall back to 0 level. After I run game literally hours also industrial demand began to appear, also even at 60% industry demand level still i have some factories with "not enough buyers" tag. And even more hours later finally some R demand also began to appear too. Now I think I'm on half way, the unemployment rate decreased down to 21% (which is still high), still also have some not enough buyers issues but overall my game seems to be working again and despite of my "economic crisis" population increased to 240 000 and now I believe that in few hours my game will be fixed. At the end it seems that I will rebuild the same level of C zones what I destroyed before (with a bit more office and bit less commercial zones), so for me final finding was that I added too much zones in same time and I should avoid that I build huge districts paused the game and rather it should be added in small quantity and waiting that new zone be part of city life more evolutionary. Thanks for advices, sorry for my easy-English, and best regards from Hungary :)

Hello Zoltan, it's nice to read a comment from a neighbor. Also, thank you very much for that detailed description of your cities progress and your dealings with this problem. I am glad to read you used my advice well and fixed your city. I would advise getting more workplaces by zoning for a lot more offices but also all four types of specialized industry. That way you will employe your Cims, produce products for generic industry and reduced the need for C zones as you will have less need to open jobs with more generic industry. Keep C zones at a minimum or you will once again brake the balance. Try to keep it 1/4 or even better 1/5 of R zones. The lower the better as long as industry has enough buyers and citizens have leasure activities elseware the C zones. Good luck in building your city and send me some cool screenshots once you finish it. Btw if you have any other problems you offten face there are more videos on my channel but if you don't find one for your other problems let me known and I will make one in the future. Best of luck to you!

Can you make a video about just commercial zones, I feel like always struggle the most with it, happiness for other zones is above 80%,while commercial is always the least happy at around 73%, I was so confused about it, either "no goods", "not enough educated workers", "no customers" and I was following the demand bars, so now that you say commercial should stay at around 50% it makes so much sense. but my curious mind is wondering why is it? Can you talk more about it? why the demand with commercial needs to be kept at 50% and how to raise the happiness of this zone?
@perafilozof3 жыл бұрын
Hi, sure thing. It's a good idea. There is the problem of C zones leveling up too fast, before cims are educated enough for those higher level jobs. There is also the problem with supply of goods and some backend calculations the game's simulation makes which crate those different popups which confuse the players. And I will go into the 50% rule a bit more. Thank you for the suggestions feel free to add them about any of my other videos you enjoy!

Hello Infinite Choices and welcome to my channel. at 16% unemployment you wont get new R demand. It has to be below 7-8%.

In my cities for some reason my industry never EVER rises.. its the oddest thing.. every single city ive created ends up going this way. im not sure why... I can literally spend months growing a city that never EVER has an up tick in industrial demand. The residential demand always stays high and so does the commercial, but the industrial demand is just never there. But i never seem to have an issue with funds or goods...

Hello Alexander Tsigaridas and welcome to my channel. The commercial demand bar goes up the more citizens you have and more industry you have because the first need happiness from shopping and the second need profits from sales. So your C zone demand should go up once you have more citizens and industry. Also, if you have gone overboard with parks, and they satisfy citizen happiness you won't see the C zone demand go up for a long time.

I put all my taxes down to 9% (I didnt test other numbers it was just the first number i tried) and the demand for residential (which then lead to the other two) skyrocketed!

So what you have there is most definitely TOO much industry zoning. You should never have almost the same industry zones as residential. And you have already made good progress by reducing that industry zoning. It should be around what you have commercial right now, and don't let commercial go up any more or it will brake especially if you have lots of parks. If you need more open jobs in the future place office zones.

Or add unique factories and other buildings which can employ Cims or bring back specialized industry, generic industry or offices depending on the education level of your Cims.

Now that I'm seeing this comment about parks and other buildings filling the C demand, I'm thinking that might be part of my problem. I have been placing parks quite often because I enjoy the idea of my Cims having fun activities to do. This brings me to my questions I'd like to ask: 1.) When should I be placing parks? My Cims always have high happiness and I will place parks anyway because it's fun for me. Should I be placing parks only as a remedy for Cims that are complaining about low happiness and low entertainment? 2.) Which other buildings are you aware of that fill the C demand? Thanks so much!

The more demand you have and the more new zones you place at one time the higher but shorter will be the growth rate of your population. But that all doesn't mater if you have no demand which can flatline if you create a disbalance which is usually the result of too many C zones.

I still can't figure this out. My current city I thought was doing well. I built up very slow, I zoned little by little. The bars stayed at a nice balanced rate as other guides have said to try and keep them at. I grew and almost had 20k pop. Than a fire started spreading like crazy though trees and stuff and as I didn't yet have the helicopter's it kept going from building to building before whipping out nearly all of my industry area plus one of my shopping centers. Than my demands across the board TANKED, RCI are all zero. I waited it out as the city was booming, maybe give it time.... NOPE. The bars have not budged in hours of playing... Zero demand, zero rebuild.... My little shopping center that survived the fire now said not enough goods, but demand to build anything to make goods was gone along with everything else... so they started going under. Now I have far more residential than apparently needed according to that chart, so I cut back on that. Now what remained of my CI says not enough workers and there goes them becoming abandoned! My unemployment is 2%! i.imgur.com/Zi5z9Jg.jpeg i.imgur.com/hYCo79P.jpeg That's all that is left! It use to be all zoned in.. built up nice with homes around the lake, three little shopping centers, my farming plus a small little industrial zone that handled the job demands... demand for more residential was booming so I worked on adding that little area on the other side of the freeway and hook up a train line... But after that fire took out so much? Now I have two buildings left of my shopping centers, one says not enough workers, the other not enough goods. My industrial zone all became abandoned. The only thing still going is my farm. But my demand across the board is still zero! What do I do next? Demo my farm? Pretty soon the only thing to exist will be my residential. WHAT FIX'S THIS?! I hoped this video would give me answers. I understand the balance, but so far the only answer has been to 'cut back on what you have too much of'. But all that appeared to do was create a not enough worker issue that just damaged things even further, and with demand still as freaking zero nothing recovers and its a non stop downhill spiral. One bloody fire and my city is dead. Three weeks of playing down the drain with no sign of recovery.

Sadly even my backup save is made after this as I assumed my city would just recover back to what it was once buildings rebuilt and the farm became less charred. But so far it never did. (I save to two files, alternating what file I save to so if a plan don't work out I exit game and reload the other file) I went back to the save before I started trying to 'fix' the issue, turned on inf money, set my pc to not go into sleep mode, and just let the game run though the night on fast speed when I went to bed and part of the morning... Any 'balancing out' I had hoped it would do on its own has not happened like said in the video. I still have zero demand for RCI, unemployment is bouncing between 2 and 4% so I still see a + of peolle at 20 to 40, than a negative of around the same, staying around 7k pop atm. While a few buildings have re-popped, nothing is really happening. Another save and I again try and cut back on residential as its the bar that is still sky high on statistics, and that seems to upset whatever balance the game has found and what remains start crying not enough workers/buyers and starts knocking out what CI I have left.

Hi, so first of all yes, you definitely have too many C zones, especially if you have build parks. Like 30% at least too many. Secondly does the education level of your citizens match the open jobs in industry? And how many open job do you have?

Ok, so with the unemployment at just 4% you won't be getting any more demand for industry. Depending on do you have many or few open jobs you will have more or less residential demand. You need to keep C zones at that % level. But you need more R zones meaning balancing job and workplace education levels so that Cims in the city take up the open jobs.

Hi, I only use forestry and farming industrial zones but it looks like it only starts building when I'm over 10k population and have high education but it refuses to start building when I don't have industries 4.0 enabled. I'm on ps4 and first lay down roads, airports and things like that before I start placing residential zones. I really don't know why it does that. At the start my employment rate was over 20% but I couldn't get it lower until later in the game
@perafilozof2 жыл бұрын
Wait, you mean the unemployment % was above 20%? What game mode are you playing in? Industry demand is directly connected to unemployment %, the higher it is the more industry demand you get. Also, the more commercial zones you have they also increase the need for industry. You have to balance industry specializations and generic industry as there isn't a infinite demand for it.

My Cities Skylines seems to disagree. My unemployment is low 7%, Residential demand is just a thin little line, my commercial demand is right around 50% and my Industrial demand is doing something really weird. I'll have high industrial demand so I'll zone a bunch of industrial and then the industrial demand will drop as expected but only for a few seconds before shooting right back up as if it were spring loaded. How do you explain that mr. smartypants? Edit: Just as a test, since you can't see my replies I'm going to try pasting my first reply into this edit and maybe you'll be able to see it that way. Well what's imported is pretty much all the natural resources as I haven't set up any specialized industry yet, it's all generic and it says total import: 2,574.

Hello Matt and welcome to my channel. It's great that you have kept C zone demand at 50%. Don't let it drop all the way. You can add a few C zones into new R zones, but don't use up it's demand. Unemployment of 7% is about stable. Above 7% will lead to more industry demand and less R demand, below 7% will help open R demand but lower I demand.

Hello JOEY, and welcome to my channel. El Rincon just explained the second question you asked, and quite well. As for your first question of how... First, you have to keep an eye on the outside connection overplay, both tabs, and the pie charts there. Whenever you see that you are exporting goods that means a) build more C zones b) don't make more generic industry. (use specialized or offices to spend industry demand and open new jobs) Second, when you see how much you are importing of each product (forestry, oil, ore, agriculture) you know that you need that much specialized industry in your city to produce those products locally. The important thing is to spend goods locally, don't export or import, and try not to import products but make them locally in specialized industry. There is a third kind of product, which isn't shown in the games interface. Raw products. That is when your specialized industry isn't built on resources and the buildings constructed are refineries, furniture makers, food makers etc. This import you can't prevent but can lower it by making specialized industry as much as possible on the specific natural resources. Build industry, specialized and generic (goods producing) as well as shops a bit at a time and in turn. Try these tips out and get back to me.

Balancing industry is a nightmare because of how slow the changes are until it arrives to a steady state. I think the simulation uses PID type of control to elongate the action reaction times and create a kinda ripple effect so it makes you think you didn't do enough or you did too much... Patience and let things stabilize is key to achieve the import export balance. Industries DLC just makes that much worse. But you get the warehouses for zoned generic raw products that are money for the city if exported... They act as a proportional band in control systems and also monetize the excess production of the especialized industry (that is the only good thing I can say about warehouses) as support to the DLC industry they just add traffic

Unique industry crates problems. You should only add it much later, not early in the build. It messes up the demand in more than one way.

Hello spectra spectra and welcome to my channel. The RCI demand bars are suggestions by the game what your city can support more off in the future. What you should zone and build. So your are not forced to follow it exactly. But! The the C zone demand doesn't take into account many other ways your population can fill their needs which are also filled by going into shops( c zones) so the more population you have the more C zone demand you see, but the actual Cims have found other ways. The developers didn't fix this in the last 6 years so players think the city needs more C zones, but it actually doesn't.
