New Simcity 4 RH game

Up in the mountains on the other side of the river, local wizards have raised an ivory tower, and also raised the Approval Rating.

Mind control also takes on the face of reason, with a school opening up to educate the people to work in less polluting and more profitable trades such as the Municipal Keg.

I'd be interested in playing, but I wont be able to join in until mid next week.

As you can see Takeshi Bay is a complete mess of residential sprawl, breaking only for the the citys single redeeming feature, the sweeping monorail system, which currently has no stations.

There are no artificial amenities in Takeshi Bay, in fact the only government controlled building is one large fire station, which was placed in a hurry when someone fell asleep whilst roasting turnips shipped in from Elmwood. They were consequently stripped, paddled, and pelted with gravel and hot bovril.

Monorail (Elevated rail) in purple.

[:) Smiley]

How much does that monorail cost to maintain?

[Maquiladora]

$136, but i dont have any stations yet. With 25 stations its $603. Not sure if this goes up even higher once usage is high, but theyll be profits too.

Am i right in thinking mostly middle class use trains/monorail? Lower class prefer busses and upper class use subway? Or do upper class use monorail?

[Guynemer]

They say those things are awfully loud.

[Maquiladora]

Ive already got some middle class moving in by it, either way theyve got no choice.

Monorail

Lyle Lanley: Well, sir, there's nothing on earth
Like a genuine,
Bona fide,
Electrified,
Six-car
Monorail!
What'd I say?

Ned Flanders: Monorail!

Lyle Lanley: What's it called?

Patty+Selma: Monorail!

Lyle Lanley: That's right! Monorail!

[crowd chants `Monorail' softly and rhythmically]

Miss Hoover: I hear those things are awfully loud...

Lyle Lanley: It glides as softly as a cloud.

Apu: Is there a chance the track could bend?

Lyle Lanley: Not on your life, my Hindu friend.

Barney: What about us brain-dead slobs?

Lyle Lanley: You'll be given cushy jobs.

Abe: Were you sent here by the devil?

Lyle Lanley: No, good sir, I'm on the level.

Wiggum: The ring came off my pudding can.

Lyle Lanley: Take my pen knife, my good man.

I swear it's Springfield's only choice...
Throw up your hands and raise your voice!

All: Monorail!

Lyle Lanley: What's it called?

All: Monorail!

Lyle Lanley: Once again...

All: Monorail!

Marge: But Main Street's still all cracked and broken...

Bart: Sorry, Mom, the mob has spoken!

All: Monorail!
Monorail!
Monorail!

[big finish]

Monorail!

Homer: Mono... D'oh!

As it has always been, the save will be accessible here:

http://www.angelfire.com/ar3/mrmitchellsc4temp/index.html

and the new save (Hot Springs 2005) has just been posted.

Fun fact for 2005:

Neither El Dorado nor Hot Springs are based on real life cities in pretty much any way. I just stole the names.

I'm trying to use mass transit kind of like Smiley did in East Central and for the densities that I've placed, the usage for my train stations has been promising.

When the city becomes big enough, I'll replace the trains with subways and monorails.

Neighbors: Check your borders. All of you but Atragon and Jonny should have a rail connection and an avenue connection, IIRC.

Monorail

I recommend everyone builds them.

[Jonny]

I suppose we're using the same plugins as last time?

As for the monorails, I've not had much success with them at previous times...

[:) Smiley]

Yep, same plugins and difficulty levels.

[EPW]

Jonny, I noticed you are using comcast to host your files like myself. Do you know of anyway to delete previously uploaded files? I am out of storage space but cannot find anyway to make room, other than to upload a file with the same name as one I previously used.

[Jonny]

Well, I'm using an FTP program (SmartFTP) to access my space, and in there I have a command to delete files; I suppose you're uploading directly from the Comcast website?

[EPW]

Yes, I am directly uploading them.
