Just picked this up for £7.50 for the Mac! Any tips for a new player?

- Start date
I bought it a few weeks back. Haven't played it yet.

Tip 1: Carefully plan out where you're going to put your various districts, leaving plenty of room for expansion if problems arise, then throw those plans out the window and furiously throw down a tangled mass of roads and train tracks and prepare yourself for the first great die-off.

Tip 2: Look lovingly at the intersections and roundabouts that other people create, and get in a decent stock of tissues for the inevitable tears of disappointment when yours look like a 4-year old made them.

Didn't they release it on console too? Or am I making that up? My memory isn't what it used to be.

Prolly should give this another go when I'm done with my current Prison Architect playthrough seeing as how I bought all the DLC in the last Steam sale and haven't even installed it

So many particulars. So many questions.
Sim City 2000 is ideologically opposed to you running a high tax high spend municipality. So you cheat

I don't even have that much in my current account right now! Also my computer is fucked, which is why I've been scrimping and saving for the past few months filling up my savings account. And posting a lot more on Urban to make up for my lack of gaming.
I don't know how long it will take for my new PC to be built and delivered (they say 5 to 7 working days for construction, no idea about delivery), but hopefully it will be less than two weeks from the 25th when I get paid.

Yeah, i've played Kerbal for about 900 hours. I console myself that I've had it for 3 years, and will often sit playing it while watching TV and hanging out with my wife, so it's *less* bad...
I need to get Skylines, I think, will wait till it's reduced again though.

If you haven't had a chance to play this it's free on steam for the next three days.

I’ve started getting into this over a year after I bought it. I assume everyone else has stopped playing? Didn’t realise the buildings upgraded individually. My biggest issue is garbage and the amount of trucks that are used to service it. Have started buying the inevitable recycling plants. There’s some interesting new DLC for it too.

Make sure you turn all the tax bonuses for buildings once they're unlocked. It makes the buildings nicer - more high end so you get more tax from them. it's 2c per building or something, ut's always been a massive net win for me. I got the transport and green dlcs (monorails! less garbage!), well worth it.
Where do I find tax bonuses? In the budget panel? That isn’t something that would have occurred to me without prompting.

Had to look it up - i mean policies, couldn't remember the word for it. Policies - Cities: Skylines Wiki So big business benefactor, you pay 4c per building, but every high density commercial business doubles its sales. Industrial space planning doubles the numbers of goods from industry, etc.
Ah ok. I’ve already adopted the recycling policy to help ease all those garbage trucks whilst waiting for recycling plants to unlock.

When I see some of the things people have built on Reddit I get very jealous.

CS plus some DLC is on Humble Bundle right now, btw. For anyone who doesn't have it and wants it...

They really should release this for the iPad, it'd be great to play on the go!
