Before you proceed
Please know that these cheats aren't supported by SC3000.COM. Use them at your own risk. If a cheat blows up your computer, or you can't get a cheat to work, all bets are off. Tough cookies.
Also, SC3000.COM does not believe that cheats should be used in place of knowledge. If your city is struggling for money, you should play the game until you learn how to make money. Cheating is a poor substitute for learning the game!
