About This File

More than 1200 acronyms and technical terms explained

Description

This is a dictionary of the most common abbreviations, acronyms and technical terms around SimCity 4. It started as my personal notes and since I used the file format of a stand-alone wiki I am sharing it here. I hope it will be useful, particularly to new mayors who try to navigate the SC4 world. 

Installation

The file is a zipped HTML file. Unzip it and open it with a browser, with JavaScript enabled.

Suggestions and Corrections

I am sure there is more work to be done. There are aspects of the game that I haven't explored yet and there will likely be things I got wrong. Please share your suggestions and corrections with me in this topic:

Thanks to Cori and Cyclone Boom for your advice and input!

Thanks for this useful dictionary. It's really very complete and visually pleasant. As an example now I know where to go when I need to consult FA drag paterns, a part from NAM Documentation

Really nice job. Its well organised and comprehensive and serves also as a jumping point for deeper searches. The Tiddlywiki thing is slick.

I haven't downloaded this yet, but this is such a cool idea! I would say I know about half of the slang that's used around these neck of the woods, and I still get confused by certain abbreviations a lot of the time. The search engine for instance can yield a treasure trove of information but a newbie perhaps could get stuck trying to understand the "short hand" that is used a lot on this forum, so this could be invaluable to both new and intermediate players.  Many thanks.

I used to do the exact same thing way in the past, with some elements derived from the Indonesian community (check out my Omnibus if you're curious). You outdid me, really well. Good job! 5/5 deserved.
