    I do not know how they do not lag, it is amazing. I have experienced the skip lag before in the past and I am not getting any of that. All cities run smooth as butter.

    CapTon:Satalite gov't spy camera. See's the whole city in all directions.

     

    No actually it's a graphical glitch. A bridge top. They appear here in there in the sky. Side effect of orion.

     

    Charlesnew: As for solving the lag issues. You build your city up as big as possible with no lag and go from there. I think If you place alot of landmarks,ground scrubbers and lots of buildings with paths you get lag. Also if you place any building to close to interchanges smaller ramps to close you will get lag from it so space them a little further away.

     

    I just put in this udon on Cotton Bend. Here is the city section.

    See that island on the left. It is used by two cities. I have a fusion power plant placed there from each city exactly the same. No need for a solar farm greatworks when you have fusion power plants plus megatower power plants power things and you can buy excess power from other cities. I'll come back around then and straighten out these udon's better in some places. Still have to go around to cities and plop parklets.

    CDC lol. Yea it was the best I could do. A CDC building mod set would be nice. At 18 million total population I guess my healthcare is doing ok.

    Yea they are and I really like how it turned out. I like looking at these pictures to see what needs fixing and I find myself getting hypnotized for a bit especially in the long shots. Looking for Shinjidai buildings in those shots is like trying to find Waldo.

    charlesnew: Thanks. I still have yet to build up Kazoo Pass. The idea is that those services will help support Spooner Plains mega population. The giant park fit perfectly for the theme for Willow Woods. I wish there was a giant wooden roller coaster mod that allows you to build your own wooden or steel coaster. I would put a wooden coaster on willow woods at the bottom where nothing but woods are perfect for a wooden coaster theme park.

     

    Here is my current population. I estimate it's over 4.2 million once fully established and no lag on max settings. Still have to build up Kazzo Pass and put uDoN in 2 or 3 cities and finish another udon in Willow Woods.
