About This File

For many centuries, Sims from all regions have been asking themselves what would be beyond the abyss, deep in the neverending space of the blue-checkered sky. One of the most common myths was about a planet called Earth where whimsical things happen: The planet would be round, there is no grid to which roads have to orientate and all Sims could pass to another city without paying attention to the yellow arrow.

Of course, nowadays, everyone knows that this is past-days nonsense: There is no place called Earth. Nevertheless, even today scientists are occupied with the search for extraterrestrical intelligence. Therefore, they have asked the mayor for permission to erect this research station. Its huge dish is supposed to receive electromagnetic signs from the space which in turn will be analyzed in the central grey building. This device is only accessible for especially trained personnel, hence it is surrounded by a security fence and the entrance is guarded. Due to the utilisation of highly modern technology, environment pollution is kept low and the local high-tech industry will be happy about lots of manufacturing orders issued to them; however, this does also mean that this research station consumes a good amount of power. In return, the entire city’s population benefits from the knowledge gained from the research, regardless if aliens are being detected or not.

Please refer to the included Readme file in the download for further information, as well as details on cost, pollution values and so on.

Available languages: English, German (both Readme and file; the game will choose the language on its own)

This is super! Some weeks ago I had the same idear - sims searching for sims in outa space. Sorry ... for me this idear is really funny as outer space to sims must be a virtual space ... or am I wrong?

I probably will do something similar (as I have a different layout in mind) - but you was first and all my respect and admiration goes to you.

I'm pretty unshure now, if it would be respectless to publish something similar (after voting for the contest has finished),

I make this dependend on you. If you say, it's okay, I'll release my own version. If you feel affected, I won't do.

In any case: great idear.

Thanks Fantozzi :) I do not think that it would be respectless to release something similar. The lot I made is just a re-lot where I've thrown together a few BATs I've found; anyone else is allowed to just do the same. I haven't even batted any content on the ELRS, so there's actually no need to make it a dependency. I should have probably credited the original authors, in retrospective:

  • Grey main building: Mattb325
  • Satellite dish: Stolloss (seems to be associated with SFBT)
  • Security fences: Pegasus
  • Trees: girafe
  • Guard building: KOSMO (at SimCityCapital)
  • Textures: Pegasus, BSC
  • Various landscaping props: SimGoober
