  • When I paused the game, plopped a park in an existing busy path, remake the connections with anarchy - the cims immediately updated their path to use the new park’s path. They left. And then no cim ever came in again. Making a second path around the park (being slower) makes them take it again and avoid the park. I noticed that some paths made with anarchy just don’t work at all too, or at least their connection to a road doesn’t work even when it looks like it should. Another anarchy path connected to a train station platform did work.

    I’ll have to try invisible paths. I really want to get people walking through those parks.


  • I was excited to use Anarchy to connect the pedestrian paths on parks. But then I realized no one uses them. And then I realized the problem is no one goes in any park at all… I really want to like this game but it feels so dead having parks and paths entirely unused. The better road network tools are great, it’s hard to go back to CS1.


  • With SSPLv1, does that mean one can sell redis hosting as long as everything used to manage it is open source? It says it’s based on AGPL. So if say digitalocean open sourced all their api’s and UI they could still offer managed redis. It seems like the answer is yes but then the blog post also says

    Under the new license, cloud service providers hosting Redis offerings will no longer be permitted to use the source code of Redis free of charge.

    That sounds like no.







  • That description of the visuals is spot on. It’s hard to describe because when you look at one asset, it looks great. But most of the time the overall feel is a downgrade. I’m playing on Geforce Now, so it’s not on a low end device. The trees can model well, except when they are glitchy weird paint smudges rapidly shifting LOD for no apparent reason. Some roads look great while others seem lower resolution than SimCity 2000. CS 1 had a more cartoonly look but overall IMO can easily look overall better especially on lower end devices. The cartoon or pixelated style is easier to pull off with weaker hardware. Regardless I wish CO luck. Add bikes and make the LOD not bonkers and it will be a great game.
