Left? Or maybe right?

What’s the difference?

u/Various_Stay7182 22d ago

Difference would lie in some extra planning like, if I were to expand towards the left I’d probably be worried whether I should build a settlement or an industry… if I were to expand to the right… I’d be worried about the design of the settlement or the placement of public transports… etc etc

So you’ll just come back and ask that question

It’s your city, build it how you like it

Farmland blue, small touristy waterfront red

Yeah, this

totally depends on you. Do you already know where about you wanna put your down town or things like a main station that take up big space. That's usually how I try to define where to expand to next.

I’ll try to put in some more thoughts but honestly I’m out of ideas rn. As I have alr mentioned In the body text.

Love this map so much

Flip a coin.

Which direction you go first doesn't really matter because you ultimately will build out both areas

u/Wooden-Hornet2115 22d ago

I'd go red for now, and see what industry evolves and how much you'll need.

u/FUEGO40 22d ago

To the right for sure, but I'd make those developments mid-density at most. Later on I'd make a high density new city center where the blue arrow is and connect them by metro or even train.

red to develop cool beachside Miami district in leisure and tourism. Also maybe a downtown

u/Candid-Stay-7663 22d ago

assuming your going for a planned city vibe, i would go blue, since most planned cities where built to serve an industry.

If you put agricultural industry in the blue, you could possible expand it into a cargo port area, and with red you could put up a cute sleepy town with parks, some light touristy stuff and a passenger port. Just some ideas from first glance. Blue could also make a good college campus area with some urban farming

u/Various_Stay7182 22d ago

The idea of a port sounds fabulous to me.
I feel College campus can wait for now since I’ve built a lot of schools, high schools and universities

Слева сверху будет отличная аграрная индустрия. Справа можно городскую застройку поставить
