I need screenshots

[Selami 0]

Hey guys,

I'm a faculty member and I'm writing a book like course notes. I need a cover photo for my book. The theme is water distribution system.

I do have a previous version of Cities, I think it's Cities XL. But I am not a good, patient player  Building a large city with good water distribution system would take months for me. What I need is a screenshot of your city's water network. The water tanks and piping in blue from just a part of your city... Especially the part where higher buildings are concentrated. The buildings could also be seen of course. However, a water tank and the blue-colored pipelines are of importance. Could you please post your screenshots? With menus and messages hidden if possible.

Also send me necessary citing info. I'll cite your work in my course notes. 

Following view is just an example to give you idea about what I need. On the picture, water distribution system and pipings in blue could be very attracting as a book cover. By the way, the course notes are for hydraulics in environmental engineering. That's pipe flow, water transmission and distribution to cities.

Cities: Skylines is not part of the Cities XL series

Also, there isn't really much to the Cities: Skylines water distribution system. The pipes have an area effect, which means you just cover the area. You need a water source somewhere (a pump or a water tower) and a water outlet (a simple pipe or some treatment plant) somewhere else, but there's no connection to individual buildings or tanks that pressurize the system.

In the end, it's just busywork with the only game element being that you avoid sucking up wastewater or have water towers (which are just pumps that don't need to be put on a shoreline) on polluted areas (industry, oil resources).

Cities: Skylines water systems are fascinating, especially the flowing rivers with real water volumes and the tsunamis, but they are very "gamey" and not realistic.
