Sorry that I gave credit to Paradox and not the real development team at Colossal Order. Sorry! There is a dedicated web site devoted to both CIM1 & CIM2 called CIMX. It looks very similar to Simtropolis! It has the same layout and content: it can found here : http://www.cimexchange.com/page/index.html

I have been playing SC4 ever since it was launched in 2003. I purchased Sim City 2013 hoping this would be better, I was bitterly disappointed it is horrible! I have now been playing Cities in Motion 2 exclusively since I purchased it at the beginning of April. (I did not like the original Cities in Motion!)

Cites in Motion 2 is so good because Paradox listens to it's customers! It's a pity that Maxis has not learnt that simple lesson.

This problem occurs with all transit enabled tiles from tram on street through to tram in avenue. Using the control, shift or alt keys are good for zoning industrial or commercial but do not use for residential zones, they will not develop! (It would be nice if the NAM team could address this issue.)

I am experiencing a problem with the new version of the Victorian el rail station by morifori, downloaded with NAM31. No el rail traffic is carried to, or from the bridge end of the station thus rendering it functionally useless. This is a great pity as this was favourite el station! Notes: 1. The automata shows trams passing through the station as if it was working normally. 2. The station has a subway interchange feature added that was not present on the original version of the station. This is not mentioned in the description. 3. The subway interchange works ok.

I've found a problem with freight trains when using many of the custom passenger rail stations available on STEX! Sadly many of the these (I use UK style stations) will block all freight trains. (Also many custom freight depots will block passenger trains!) You can check for these problems by building a temporary loop round them. Another way to encourage freight trains is to use the 'no trucks' blockers on all cross boarder road, avenue and highway connections. Hope this helps!
