About This File

Ever had one of those days when you just can't figure out your garbage problems? Me too. So I've created the Ministry of Garbage.

The lot is based off marcszar's brilliant McCormick and Co Spice building. I've been looking around for a nice unique building that would stand out from the higher zoom levels.

The key value-add with this lot is the custom query. It shows many of the SimCity internal garbage numbers, such as the effectiveness of recycling plants, how much garbage is converted to energy and how much garbage your city is producing. Plop the lot and check the query. Then make some changes (such as plopping a recycling plant), run the city and then use the query to check to see what sort of effect the change has made.

Dependencies

 

To ensure the proper functionality, make sure the files mentioned below are installed in the plugins folder.

You should have the following two files for all BSC lots:

  1. Base / Overlay textures: BSC Texture MEGA Pack, and
  2. Essentials : BSC Essentials Files

These can be downloaded from the STEX. If you have been regularly downloading the BSC Mega Prop packs you should have them already.

You will also need MSZ McCormick and Company BSC (v1.0).


-Cori Edit: Fixed broken linky for MSZ McCormick and Company BSC (v1.0).

Good stuff as usual and thanks for applying some purpose to a very good BAT ... Your attention to detail is one of the things that force me to never miss a DWD offering.

What a beautiful building for being garbage. Evene if I never check the status of garbage, I will at least use the building.

Excellent idea, very useful, and excellent work with the query as well! It counts correctly even my incinerators (as incinerators, not W2E plants), something I wouldn't believe before seeing it, as there is no "Incinerator" occupant group! However the modding quality of the building/lot isn't up to DEDWD standards, and is not satisfactory in general...

... And the BAT is actually industrial, it doesn't really look like a "Ministry". I didn't rate (this would belittle the query work), but as a sign of appreciation and interest in this lot, I have posted my considerations in your thread. Maybe expect a reupload?

Hmmm.... I thought that looked familler. Anyway, brilliant idea. My capital city, Ichon, apparently has a garbage problem. But I have an almost unused WTE Incinator and a regular incinarator. Go figure.

Excellent work! Glad you could use the McCormick model in such a creative way- The lot organization is excellent and the custom query design blows the primitive Maxis garbage queries/charts away. A definite 10/10!
