It would be cool if bridges and such would age. Like you'd have replace bridges every so many years or whatever.

Cahos, i do see your point. And i do think that it should be able to be turned off. As you said a LOT of these cities such as the ones in CJ's are more art than gameplay. But, i do feel those disasters step up the realism factor in the game. As much as you'd hate to see art get ruined, it is true in real life that Paris France or some other beautiful location could be ravaged by mother nature... And that would be neat for the locusts or plagues to happen to your city.

So it's not just me... good deal. It added a nice element to the game.

So I've been playing sc4 for a while and I've never had any disaster other than a fire... why is that? I noticed in god mode i can spawn other things, but why don't they just happen like in previous versions? I checked the settings and they are turned on. Any ideas? Is that nromal? My city is over 100 years old btw, and nothing has ever happened to it. I've got SC4 with Rush Hour and i have NAM installed. This happened even before NAM though.

Good suggestion Wrecks. I may do just that tonight!

Thanks Moose and bison, i didn't think about that. Good call! And to topgun, i realized what you meant about destroying buildings on the adjoining map. I guess if i had looked at the other map before asking about it, i would have seen that there was a piece of my connected rail/road on the second map. Thanks to everyone who helped.

Can it be uninstalled if i don't like it? I saw the post below that says the traffic simulator is an option... is that true? I don't want to tweak the games functionality too much, but the new tiles would be nice.

Hello, Is there any way to build railroad bridges over regular roads/streets? Or maybe bridges over railroad tracks?

Thanks Moose. That is what i ended up going with pretty much. BTW, what is the point of the station being located where it is? Only the main line can use it?

Hello, This is my first post, so nice to meet you all. 1. When i a connecting different cities on a region, do i have to make sure that both sides of the roadway connect at the same tile? For example, if i am running rails to a city that is to my left on the region, and my rail exits the first city on the 17th tile from the bottom left side, does it have to connect to the 17th tile from the bottom right corner on the second city? Or just any tile along that side? 2. If i run rails along the side of an industrial complex, do i have to have a freight depot? Or will it work just by the tracks touching the industrial zone?
