Literally HALF MY TOWN is without water eventhough the meter is well into the green?

I don't think "gay" is the appropriate word there.

This is clearly not a gay situation for you!

 

Probably just needs a sec to propagate.

Just delete the gay roads connecting to that area and replace them with new straight roads. The order and culture of society will soon flow into all households and buildings in your fine city.

<offtopic>

I'll just sit and laugh a bit more here, ty for that

Maybe if you were nicer to your townspeople they would end their water strike and drink from your fountain!

A gay water meter? I think it's really time Codpiece face that you come to terms with your relationship concerning this water meter.

 

 

The fact is, the water meter can determine its own sexuality, and there's no need for you to feel threatened by that. The fact is, the water meter is gay, not that there's anything wrong with that...

 

...Wait, you were talking about the sexual orientation of an inanimate object, weren't you? Not something else concerning how water meters behave in game? I may be young, but even I understand "gay" was traditionally denoted as a synonym for happy. So if it isn't a happy or homosexual (or both) water meter that you're talking about, I have no idea what you want. I guess in that case, your ever so eloquently written post went right over my head.

I'm sure the OP didn't mean to offend anyone, but just in case...yeah, it would be appropriate to change the title.

In all seriousness though, CodFace, you need to change your topic.

 

Thanks!

Good so the world have not been brainwashed by the "Don't say Gay" movement entirely, yet...

Actually (s)he didnt say the water was gay, but said "this (situation) is gay", Observing bugs can be hilarious sometimes, and SC has lots of them. So maybe he got this overjoyed feeling of joyfullness while playing???  They say though that happy is not something you become, you are born that way. hmm, I don't know.There are too many grumpy people..

okay

 

check all your lines and see if you have a break. Should be right around the area that is complaining about water. The water meter just tells you if you have enough water for the current city and its building needs and not if everyone is connected. I could be wrong but i think thats it, use the birds eye view and follow the blue lines

I had this issue too. I think it has to do with putting your pumps on a low-lying section of town opposite a higher area and having the entire city nearly filled. I ended up relocating both my water pumps (and sewage pumps) as well as my power lines (because we all know power is affected by gravity too)

 

Once I put the service buildings on the hill, the issues went away. This may not be the issue though, just the only reason I could attribute it to and it worked.

 

Interestingly, I started out with only one roadway connection to the hill area and everything went abandoned so I added a more direct road route from the pumping sites. This seemed to work, but it was intermittent, which is why I just moved the power/water altogether.

 

The odd thing is that spare capacity has no effect on pumping speeds.

Oh so that's why the Romans built all those roads that way

This is before French curves if I may be so bold
