Alejandro24: ¡Gracias por comentar! Ánimo con el cálculo ahora, las EDOs serán más amenas... Keep hanging on your Calculus lessons, ODEs will be more entertaining...
the00guvna: Thank you for commenting! Well, the EL-rail tracks are placed 15 meters above ground if everything is NAM-standard; then the station platform would be placed at the same height of the 2nd or 3rd floors of the nearby buildings; not the 1st... My fault!
OrdinarySim: ¡Gracias por comentar, Ander! Poverty and injustice can have its bright side, but only in SC4, where only Sims are hurt... ![]()
Exla357: Thank you for your comment! Yeah, this is an aspect I have to solve... The inconvenience of this all-plopped city (let's face it) is that it doesn't generate much workers because of that annoying bug that plopped residentials have; and thus, there are no commuters who ride the trains. And AFAIK, there are no subway automata generators out there...
Animaniacs: Thank you for commenting!
spursrule14: Thanks for your comment, I've just remembered Men In Black; in the movie it is stated that a high percentage (can't remember the exact figures) of aliens living in the Earth live in the New York City area...
Roberto Robato: Thank you for your comment! You're not the only STEX addict, but at least you don't have to live with the "pain" of having only 0.5 Gb of free space in your hard drive...

Most of Rankine was built before the sixties, but it suffered a great expansion during the sixties, when more modern factories moved there and other structures where built there. They gave a brief period of growth which stopped few years later.

Open-air sewage was one of the worst ideas ever implemented in Rankine; it only had one good thing: it was inexpensive; and this came first when the sewage planning was made.

Some new factories moved into Rankine, and they encouraged the demographic growth here. When they went bankrupt, however, their just arrived workers couldn't move to another district and stayed.

During this era the whole NYC area saw a nearly incontrolled growth, somebody even thought in building an office highrise here. It was a laudable idea, but it just didn't work.
