About This File

April fools! Congratulations to the 1000 who fell for it. The prank is over. Do not download it now - it will blow up your cities.

 

(For anyone who wants a blowup lot, feel free to download.)

 

This is an anti-pollution plant designed to superseed all others. The device removes all the pollution (both air and water) from an area of about 10 tiles wide. It is also self-powered (hence being modded as a power plant) and should appear in the utilities menu.

 

Pollution is sucked down a spiral tube into a black hole, which is contained inside an energy field (no chance of your cities being sucked into it). Clean air and water are returned via hawking radiation. The black hole glows at night due to interations with dark energy and subatomic flow. Blah, blah, technobabble... etc.

 

And here are the stats

Plop cost: §2300

Monthly cost: §350

Bulldose cost: §1500

Air pollution removed: 255 over 10 tiles

Water pollution removed: 255 over 10 tiles

Lot size: 2x2

Water consumed: 0

Flammability 255: (so keep it well covered)

Max fire stage: 1

Dependencies: None!

 

 

Disclaimer: Do not use if you are going for eyecandy/realism, since it won't look very realistic in your cities.

I installed this and added it to one of my cities and it disappears after a few years, leaving a gray square in it's place.

Mine blew up 1 second after i saved. Bye Bye intricate sunken highway system in my best city. Cheers mate, it took 4 hrs to fix. Not to mention the sudden drop in desirability and rise in commute time, it basically wiped out my best city.

Don't people save their games from time to time? I routinely click the save button when working on my cities in case broken plug-ins decide to go haywire and create big craters.... just thought I'd throw that out there.
