Non-Polluting Mono Rail?

[Azerelus 0]

Has anybody figured out how to remove the pollution from the monorails in a mod?

It would seem to me that Maxis should have made the mono rail electric/non-polluting as a way not only to combat traffic and commute issues but also as a clean alternative for mass transit.

I was hoping somebody figured out a way to fix that and make monorail electric - Exchanging the rate of pollution for the rate of electrical needs (thereby the player can decide to plop either clean sources of energy or polluting power plants to power the monorail).

Not sure why this is here...

I'll move it to the Simcity Discussion forum.

How are you detecting pollution from the monorail?  Even the station pollution is 1, less than most buildings.  Even on the most congested monorail lines, I don't see air pollution.

Azerelus: yeah i know what you're talking about. there's some pollution with the monorail, but im sure its not that much. you could just go to STEX and get this air purification plant that'll get rid of most pollution in a general vicinity. otherwise, i think the pollution shouldnt hurt.

I think the RH patch on the official website has that fix in it. Is some part of your game version "B638"? If it is then I have no idea why, but if it's not, install the patch.

Ah I lack a patch. Thanks
