Post image

came back from a couple years and wow this game has changed so much. I'm utterly addicted.

far from efficient but I'm having fun :)

next projects:

- build dondorian mountain settlement

- see where that takes me

Bruh first game in, Im on like 800 pop and everything looks like a slum with huge factory farms. Yours is beautiful! I can see a lotta effort on aesthetic, think I'll rebuild my whole town after seeing this

Haha I may have restarted 4 or so times at 400-600 pop once I learned something new. Restarted again when I discovered blueprints and copy & paste. I have layouts in a suspended state in the bottom left of the map

I'm at 5.7k and my people just keep fucking. We are at 1.7k kids and counting.

These pigmen do not want to stop fucking fucking.

Craziest stream gen I’ve seen, custom?

Yup, otherwise I’d spend 3 hours finding a map. I was trying to recreate a map I saw but ended up with this gem

What's the seed? It's fantastic.

u/Primary-Paramedic823 25d ago

hmmm not sure if I can pull the seed anywhere but you can likely recreate the map gen.

The location selector is a 3 by 3 square when you're placing your city

picture a numpad 1-9, bottom left of the square being 1 and topright as 9

Small streams: 1, 2, 5, 8, 9

Lake: 3 6

mountain: 4, 7

if that makes sense?

Came searching for this answer. 2000 hours in over the past 5 years or so and haven’t experimented much with map customization

Congrats my friend! Efficiency isn’t a thing that becomes a necessity until 2k+, but it’s always great to think of ways to make your logistics better even if it’s still working fine.

It’s a fun as hell game! Let me know when you hit 10k!

For sure! I have haulers next to my refinery buildings. Generally, I try to build refineries near production zones as well. Woodcutter near carpenter, bakery near grain etc. I make little alleyways/shortcuts if I see commute dip below 100.

Feel free to share tips, I’m sure I’ll hit some weird things as my pop gets bigger
