Hey, I just revived my nation (Metropolitan Houston) and tried to rejoin the region, but found that it had been passworded. What's the deal?

First off, lay off the caps lock. We can hear you just fine with normal type. Second, which version did you download - the version with or without the puzzle piece starters?

Still alive. Just under the effects of RLS.

I found, with the old one anyways, that sims wouldn't use the HSR station unless there was another form of mass transit connected to it (buses don't count). Trains won't stop at it otherwise for some reason. I found the easiest way around this is to tie the el-train connection into a subway network immediately after departing from the HSR station.

SCS is a case of EA and Tilted Mill trying to tell us what we want instead of ACTUALLY listening to us. No one wanted this joke of a game. We wanted an improvement on SC4. This is not it.

I had a thought regarding the HSR/GHSR-to-Rail transition some people had been asking about in the past. If I remember right, the hang-up has been because the HSR is technically monorail reskinned, and heavy rail trains can't travel on that network and vice-versa. But what if the HSR pieces were rewritten to overwrite RAIL instead of monorail? HSR is basically an upgraded version of rail anyways, so shouldn't they be made of the same network? If both rail and HSR are of the same network, then there shouldn't be any issue with transition and trains operating on both "networks". This would also mean that monorail could still be reskinned for Mag-Lev (much like HSR is now) should anyone make an attempt to design such a network, as Mag-Lev is not compatible with another network like HSR is. Could you imagine operating BOTH in a city at the same time? Warrior: I apologise if this means a lot of work for you, trying this idea if you do. I just thought it might work a little better visually.

Okay guys, I started a couple new nations recently (the Texian Empire over in the IDU, and Texian Simtropolis here in our region), and they both have claims in the region. Texian Simtropolis claims the pink area south of Vartorgan (as a subnational entity within the Empire), and the Texian claims direct control over the enclave at the mouth of the Rio Seguin in Metropolitan Houston (a name for it will be coming shortly).

As long as no one has a claim on it (and I don't think anyone does) it's all yours.

Welcome to the region. Feel free to claim a spot on simzebu's map for your nation.

I didn't know where to post this, so I thought here would be best, because while I am not a newb, some newbs might have this question as well. Is there any way to change your username if you're unhappy with the one you first came up with?
