simmars-forum-threads SimMars - Overall Progress

[Shoji_sim 9]

Further additions:

CS$$

R$ Martian Trailers

Domed Parks, Pools, Playground

Converted mini map by new contributor bdswim

[Somebody 12]

Wow great to see that this project is still going strong. I thought all hope was lost for Mars, but it's a good thing i was wrong!

[TimeMaster 4]

I think mostly TimeMaster, Timcravey and Evillions revived it. Then Andisart came back and it's going strong. Also, those Beta 3 pics are looking nice.

[AndisArt 2,066]

New finalized additions:

Reward BATs by Timcravey

Hydrology Research Center (resident trigger: 33,000)

Farmers Market (resident trigger 10,000)

Weather Station (resident trigger: 5,000)

Park BAT by timcravey

Soccer Stadium

Reward BAT by crushedcar

Colony Administration Center

[Evillions 552]

Make the requirements a bit higher like 120,000 for the baseball staduim. My Simmars cities usually have a pop. over 250,000 in large. 120,000 in meduim. And 70,000 for small. I'm using a racdical cheat mod and all those similar to it including CAM. So it would be better for all of us.

[AndisArt 2,066]

SimMars is not being made for CAM or similar mods but for the regular SimCity values. Maybe in the future we can create a mod though that adapts the SimMars values to CAM and similar

[Evillions 552]

Like you already have that money office thing that gives 65,000 per month thanks to TIm. Anyways, what I'm saying is that you have at-least over 70,000 or 80,000 for a requirement. Additionally, in my non-cheat cities, (When I first tried out Simmars.) my overall pop. of a city or mean was about 80,000 just everything put together. Even some of my cheat cities has a pop. less than 60,000 since I didn't fill in much of the land provided.

[AndisArt 2,066]

Ideally there should be a steady progress of unlockable rewards as your colony grows, just like with the MAXIS rewards. I'm keeping track of the trigger numbers and there are already rewards above 50.000 residents:

50.000 Prepo Inn

60.000 Plymouth Center for Colony Strategies

80.000 Nuclear Power Plant

The list will grow as more BATs are added to the mod. Also, once we find out how to add additional conditions to the Reward LUA scripts, the resident number will not be the only condition required for a lot of the BATs.

[Evillions 552]

Ask Simgoober? Or someone else who knows how to make rewards?

[simcity4crazyguy 24]

Any updates?

Been following ya'll since the beginning.

[Evillions 552]

Check in the BAT workshop. You can help us if you like SimMars, then join us!

[Blazerhawk 162]

I'm just curious as to whether we have any target release date for this addon.

[AndisArt 2,066]

As usual, there are no release dates set since they will only have to be changed again and again anyway.

It's ready when it's ready

[TimeMaster 4]

I'd say. . . a few months.

Can't wait till Gamma!! But that will take a really long time

Zubrin House / Apartments

[JakeMD 107]

These all look fantastic! Great job guys!

I'm still trying to workout some terrain modd textures ...

[Evillions 552]

Give me the gmax file of Zubrin House / Apartments. I bet I can make it a highrise as a 1x2.

EDIT: This gives me so many ideas! But HOW CAN I MAKE MY BUILDINGS GROW! AH!! Just what do I have to do? Like replace those maxis blockers or what? Use dusktroopers?

[AndisArt 2,066]

Evillions, Tim has the gmax of Zubrin. Regarding making the BATs grow, as I said, use a Plugins folder with only the SimMars textures and props in it (or temporarily remove the "Mods" folder) while creating the .desc and .lot files and you should not have any problems.

I'm creating a tutorial on this, just didnt have the time before.

[danielcote 9]

are these BAT's on the current simmars yet?

[AndisArt 2,066]
