Manuel-ito

Upside down? I don't know, everything looks pretty normal to me! AsimPika's Popeye giving a thumbs down, me having to stand on the ceiling to write this post... (I find it amusing that Cyclone's avatar is largely unaffected. Only the shade got swapped )

Siguiendo con creaciones en C:S, tras la nueva actualizacion gratuita que vino con Sunset Harbor decidí hacer un nuevo set de estaciones de pasajeros para reemplazar el andén que publiqué en el Workshop hace bastante: Decidí ir por un estilo "Vainilla", como el de la estación del juego base, y todas (salvo una) usan un set de redes personalizadas por BadPeanut. Todavía le falta un poco más de trabajo, como rebalanceo de costes y extensión de las vías

With the newest update facelifting vanilla train tracks, I started working on a new set of passenger stations meant to supercede a train halt I made a while ago: These are all in a Cities Railways (aka 'Vanilla') style, so they may have some warts, and all but one use BadPeanut's ground station networks. Still have a while to go before they are ready for publishing. Need to double-check some track lenghts, stop points and rebalance each against the vanilla station.

The pack is fairly basic (it was made back in 2006, when Rush Hour was still young ), so the items stay the same all year round.

A bit late to share this, but... There's an old, fan-made pack at Capital SimCity that contains various themed decorations, from transit enabled Christmas lights to plazas with decorated trees

Still working on Pepper Lake, I have more or less finalized the design of Pioneer Milling Company: It's not the only factory, tho. Several new ones have sprouted nearby: This took me longer than I'd like to admit. Lots of bulldozing until I got the growables I wanted, plus some more for level 2 buildings (and even more for those with color variations!). Also making sure they didn't dilapidate due to worker shortage. And yes, I replaced the default interchange

The perspective on the Flatiron Building caught me off guard. Are you sure that's from SimCity 4? Just kidding. Amazing work as always!

The passing of the tornado had one of the factory clusters pack up due to lack of workers, so the storage yard was relocated: The primary milling facility seems to be going strong though: Meanwhile, I'm having fun with gravel roads planning for future expansion of the town. You can also see the ground has mostly healed from the disaster: I also announced the purchase of a new plot of land east of town for further future development, not shown here. Instead, here's a bird's eye new of Pepper lake at night: At morning, everything seems to be peaceful, when suddenly the earth starts to shake... ...Or rather, sink. A sinkhole suddenly appeared and ate a section of Memorial Park. Miraculously, nobody was visiting when this happened. Repairs are in order. The hole was deemed too dangerous to rebuild on, so it's left as is: The construction of new industries has left the town in brownouts, so a new coal-driven power station is commisioned: However, this region either hates fossil power or has a cruel sense of humor, for a few minutes later... ...not again! Tornado! Tornado! Casualty report: 386 citizens. Power station destroyed, wind turbines derelict, fire and police brigade left without a home. The Plaza of the 299 narrowly survived after having one of its gates torn up (and having a car nearly land on top of the graves) After the necessary repairs, a new plaza for the fallen 386 has been constructed at the main park gate: The incident showed that emergency brigades cannot rely on a single office for a town this size, so a new set opens near the industrial area, hopefully out of tornado zone. They will definitely hate me for having to work near the landfill, though: A new schoolhouse has also been opened to promote growth and relieve pressure on Pioneer Elementary, as it was starting to get overcrowded: Pepper Lake after the second tornado: (For those curious to what triggers the disasters: the tornadoes happen twice over the span of two days, and the sinkhole occurs after you buy a second city tile) That's all for now!

To be fair, I just started the scenario, but yes, that access will definitely get overhauled (Along with the boulevard too. Not the first time I played this city, so I know that it will bring trouble once I expand enough, specially since I plan on connecting it with the other stretch of highway on the other side of the map)

I think we have a little predicament here, Mr. Founder... Tornado tearing trough Pepper Lake, Tornado Country scenario. 299 casualties reported: EDIT 02/26/2019: And here's the Plaza of the 299 nearly getting destroyed by a second tornado. 386 casualties reported:

Rest in peace Appletown, will resurrect that proyect someday... Starting a new scenario with the same 'vanilla with sprinkles' approach, this time without mods. This is Pepper Lake of the Tornado Country region, after the deadly passage of, well, take a guess...

Decided to start a new cities skylines scenario after a multitude of real life and gaming problems (RIP Appletown, will resurrect you some day) This time is Tornado Country, home of the town of Pepper Lake, a town with many ambitions. Still going for a 'vanilla with sprinkles' approach, this time with less of them, I mean, without mods. Scenario objectives: reach 260K population, 20k lifecycles and 1M funds (you start with 500K) You lose only at 30K in debt, that's it. Easy scenario, if it weren't for the fact that the game is notorious for melting computers at 100K+ population, among other problems... Enough ramble! here's the town as soon as you start: The town must've been settled recently, as 93% of the population is unemployed. Basic services are already built: landfill, clinic, fire and police stations and elementary school. First plan for the town is to expand it: settle factories and small shops, cut some expenses on those roads and raise tax levels to fund all of it. Thankfully, all approved by the town (althought I'm sure I saw some frowns on the roads and taxation ideas) Also not commented on: Landfill moved, Storage yard built for the industries : To appease the lack of jobs, a marketplace has been set up at the roundabout. Between Pepper Avenue and Pioneer Central Boulevard lies the Pepper Pioneer Market: The park, renamed to Pioneer Park, recieved some embellishment, and a new vocational school has been opened to educate the citizens further. A statue has also been erected to commemorate the Founder: The utilities seemed a bit unprotected, so a security fence is now in place: At dusk, the industries have arrived at town. They call themselves the 'Pioneer Milling Company' : That's all for Pepper Lake for now! hope y- Wait, what's that siren i'm hearing? Oh... Um... there's a bit of a predicament here, Mr Founder: ...Figures. I guess that's why it's called 'Tornado Country', huh? After the tornado passed and the storm subsided, a park has been commisioned to commemorate the fallen citizens. This is Pepper Lake Memorial Park: 299 casualties were caught in the path of the cyclone. A plaza was constructed for them: A general view after the tornado: That's all for now! as you can see, I'm trying a different format for this. Not sure if I'm doing an OK job at it, but time (and comments) will tell Also, you're welcome to tell me any ideas for this city!
