How? Well the designers made 50% budget 25% effective and they made 150% budget 125% effective. Note: the budget sliders are meant to discourage you from fiddling with them too much and are designed to encourage you to use the correct number of buildings. One quick way to alleviate this is to set the budgets to minimum. Also notice that we're suddenly running a massive deficit - this is because we're paying for a wind turbine, water pumping station and a poo pipe but only have a few families living her to pay taxes for their upkeep. One quick fast-forward into the future later and we have some houses :-) However, notice that the RCI demand (the three coloured bars) has now completely changed and instead of having full demand for residential (green), we now have significant demand for both industrial (orange) and commercial (blue). note that the pylon closest to the residential zoning is close enough to power the houses but not on top of any zoned squares so we don't lose any buildable space. Yay! Let's get the turbine down and join everything together with pylons. More by blind luck that good planning, it seems there's plenty of wind power on this map.
This allows us to apply the golden rule of water management: place your poo pipe downstream of your water source! You don't want to drink your own faeces after all :-\ then we get everything connected up using the pipe tool.įinally we need power.
First we need to check which way the water is flowing: We're going to need to connect to the highway and we're going to need somewhere to live so we have to lay some road that joins to the highway and lay some road that we can add residential zoning to - making sure it all links up. We have a highway connection to get those new arrivals into the city, we have a fresh water supply and we have land. This is what we're presented with at the beginning of the game: In order for the houses that appear to operate successfully, you're going to need to provide clean water and get rid of the dirty stuff and you're going to need power. You need to place a piece of road and you need to zone some residential area. The very beginning of every game has precisely the same requirements.
