About This File

Rounding out the common trio of pollution types, this one helps to show the different levels of garbage in much the same way as my previous Air Quality Index, and Water Pollution Index.

Much like the other two Data Views I've uploaded, this one uses the same 6 colors to chart the amount of garbage within your city. However, when trash does begin to pile up, it'll be a bit more subtle to see, as the green has a tendency to blend in with the grass (with Maxis default terrain textures).

Not only have the colors changed for the amounts, but I've also included an update to the sanitation lots. They will now show up as blue, to help keep them separate from the rest of the chart. In this way, they will be considerably easier to spot, and to see if there may be any issues involved with the trash making it's way to the disposal facilities.

Once again, I used the Big City Tutorial, from the Maxis default region, Timbuktu. Though I had to let the game run for quite a while with the sanitation funding cut to zero, in order for it to build up.

The mod contains the following:
- Garbage Pollution Index.dat
- Garbage Pollution Index - city view.png
- Garbage Pollution Index - data view.png
- GPI Read Me.txt

This is compressed in my normal .7z folder. Use the appropriate unzipper.

And, the only reason for why this mod is called the Garbage Pollution Index, is simply cause the other two pollution data view mods, were already called indexes, so it only seemed appropriate to call this a pollution index as well.

And as always, feedback is welcome! :)

I'll use it in my city. It's just so helpful especially in large cities.

Well done! I don't generally have any Garbage to worry about, however I created some just to see your mod in action:
