I made a city named Charlietown.

In about 4 hours of gameplay, the envineroment minister said there is high water pollution!

I checked the viewer, and first the whole country was yellow, (low pollution) and in 20 seconds it turned red! THE WHOLE COUNTRY!

I added 20 tretment plants and none of them worked (they had pipes, power etc.)

and all the water towers got polluted and unusable. Only poor people stayed, so thats 190 ppl.

Please help!

PS i have lots of plugins, i have black hole water towers, but they are bug free!

Did you delete any pollution control lots? If so, that is the cause. Pollution is only suppressed by these lots, and not really removed. If you remove the controlling lot, you get it all back, with a vengeance.

Still dont get it...

A pollution control lot is one that reduces pollution. They are usually some kind of cheat, like the Black Hole Waste Management lot. If you delete this one the lot becomes a fountain of pollution.

oh. so i musnt use black hole things, and everything will be okay?

I did not say that. You just have to put things like it down, and don't try to move them. This requires a little forethought. I use that particular one all the time when there is no water coast in my city. Otherwise I use PEGs garbage barges.

All custom content is at your own risk. You should be sure you have read all the documentation and have tested them in your sandbox region.

By the way, my anti-matter power plant also eats pollution for a whole large tile. However, if you bulldoze it, the whole tile becomes radioactive for 5000 Sim-years.

    Oh. Im not understanding but now i have non risky cc water towers and garbage burying. They are tested and i tested them too and it works. I just wont use black hole things because they MAY have bugs.

    I don't think those lots are buggy. But the game wasn't designed to have pollution suppressed in this manner.
