Is there a mod that gives you a seamless region? I think the single biggest thing I dislike about the game is that I have to pick up and move to each tile in a region instead of being able to develop it all.

Maybe Maxis will release the code so you can.

That's not going to happen any time soon, seeing as Maxis as we knew it has broken up.

Even if it did happen, unless you have a single core processor that is more powerful then the most powerful one commercially produced, the game would be very slow once you fill in a bit of the map.

Why is it so difficult to make older games use more than one core? I wish there was just a setting that you could change to make it use as many cores as you have available!1.gif

Because multi-threaded programming is difficult, involving various mechanisms for ensuring that each thread accesses shared resources safely.  Older programs weren't written with multi-threading in mind and there's no way to automatically fix them.
