Two questions

Hi, I had a mod installed that make it so you can have up to 30 dorms for your university.   And the mod works with no problems at all.   But, I downloaded the new update for simcity and now the dorms don't work.   They don't increase student capicity.   It's like the dorms are just there for decoration.   I like the mod and don't want to remove it because it increases the amount of people that attend my elemtry schools which makes it so I don't have to plop a bunch of schools.   Anyway got any ideas on whats wrong?

 

And I have an unemployment problem.  When I check the demand stats it says I'm all good.   But, when I go to the detailed look at my unemployment stuff it says I have 1,675 unemployed sims for my $$$ wealth.   So I decided to try and do electronics as a trade to see if it would increase the amount of $$$ jobs, but it didn't do squat. 

 

Also my sims arent traveling to another city for work but the game says I have no demand for jobs since I put all my industrie in other cities.   How do I have no industrial demand, but only 100 sims travel outside the city to work when my population is at 90,000.

Dorms do not increase classroom capacity at the University. Their purpose is to allow students to live there, and not live with their parents off campus. This way, they are close enough to walk to class and not have to jam up the roads driving into class every morning. When the first class starts, watch the education overlay, you will see them leave the dorms and go into the academic buildings to attend class.

 

If you have 1,675 unemployed $$$ workers, you need to provide them $$$ jobs. Rich people like to work in the $$$ office towers. They will still work in smelly $ factories, but only if they can be the boss and not the assembly line worker, so there are limited spots in those types of buildings. There is a mod that allows you to see the number of jobs of each wealth level at each building, I highly recommend it.

 

 

A note about that 90,000 population. That is a "fudged" number to make your city seem larger than it really is. Always pay attention to the population detail panel, as it displays the true number agents (population) in your city.
