Day 2

Stop educating people.

I've had the same issue with farming, don't know how to get it going.

Started using the mod which allows you to purchase 25 instead of 9 plots for building. City now up to 150,000.

Did you check to ensure the right resources are present for the chosen industry?

I wanted to leave some feedback and suggestions for this game on the Paradox forums. I have spent an hour over two days trying to register. It's infuriating. Nothing on their website makes sense. Even once i thought i'd found a way to successfully sign up, i'm not told i dont have permission to post, and in order to gain permission i must follow 'this link', which isn't even a fucking link. Absolute joke of a website.

I have no idea what you guys are doing wrong for your specialisation industry.  All I can think of is that the demand for industry doesn't exist in the first place.  

Nox, if you want to leave some feedback, Cities: Skylines has an active subreddit which is looked at by the Paradox team.  Also your suggestions might prompt the modding community to integrate your mod.  Paradox have started a thread for bug reporting as well (I think).  But having to resort to reddit as opposed to their own website is supershit.

Done all that. Nothing. If i zone it general industry things get built. As soon as I zone it forestry it turns into a ghost town.

Yeah, it forestry, and there is a huge forest there, also shows up on the resources map so I'm confused.

Not tried farming though.

My forestry took a little while to get going but it's working fine now. Nothing appeared initially and I thought it was broken.

Did you wait long? When you change industries the old one gets dismantled and then slowly rebuilt.

I've waited a fair while. Will post pics in a bit.

Maybe it doesn't work with palm trees.

The death surges are obvs. now. From going balls deep at hyper speed and expanding res. too quick...seems that the "cims", love that- cims, don't live long...I'm gonna have to, well, put up with it?! Or do some staggered de zoning and rezoning.

It's a good foray for a first go.

Every few years it seems, from the graphs I lose tens of thousands through natural aging- I'll have you know the health of my cims is good, tuppence. 

It's just that they all die at the same time and my road planning and dozens of crematoriums do fuck all...litterally there will be a thousand or so consistently dead for about half an hour which is more than my 250 hearses acn handle, it would be good to know how many bodies can fit in a herse!

I need to look at my routes between between industry. Things could be worse at this point, if it weren't for cargo ships and trains cutting out a bulk of the traffic issues but shit would've gotten much worse if I hadn't built them!

Happy to entertain (o: and hopefully we can share in the lessons of how to identify "Doing a Beano."

Slow building residential is the key, not painting great swathes of it essentially. 

I started another city to test some mechanics, I think I caan fix what I've done but it's gonna take decades of dezoning and staggered rezoning. Unfortunately I've got three map areass where I've painted swathes of res. that I need to undo, but I am not going to bother until I sort dedicated highways between all my industry districts and cargo terminals.

How's everyone's public transport? It's a hoot not having to pay upkeep on individual stops, and I'm under the impression the more routes the more income you get? Though I haven't checked.

My power station burned down and everything went immediately to compete shit. In part, literally.
