I haven't played SimCity for more than two months and I figured I'd give it a try again but, of course, now I'm completely locked out. No matter what I do, I can't get Origin online. When I try to log into Origin directly I get a "Server Error", when I try to launch SimCity it tells me that it can't contact Origin, and I'm REALLY regretting spending my hard earned money for this idiocy. Can anyone help?

The tilt function that goes away in a few minutes is really driving me nuts. Any hope of fixing that? Plus, let me add my voice to many: PLEASE give us a fully sandboxed, fully solo, unlimited, larger tile size game as an option. Other players can play in groups and challenge themselves with all the arcane and complex details. For a solo player that just wants to build: There are way too many factors to juggle in this and it ceases to be fun and is just hard work.

Helps immensely. I didn't know about those layers. Thanks!!!!

You may be Noobi-Wan, but I'm a total Noobi, so I don't understand how you do that. Can you explain how to put on a filter so that you can draw roads at the same time? The way I see the underground deposits is to choose a mining building. Am I doing it wrong?

I just signed up for this forum and I only checked around a bit, but I couldn't find any discussion about this bug and problem I'm finding. First of all I only play in sandbox private mode with everything toggled off as I'm exclusively interested in building, not anything else. Therefore this may have an impact on this. Here is my bug: When I first create a city both right and left mouseclicks work for navigation but after about ten minutes I can no longer tilt the city, only navigate around it. I have to exit the game and re-enter it to reset it and then again only for another ten minutes or so. Here is my problem: I can't seem to find a way to determine where the oil and ore is while laying down roads. I have to keep switching between views which makes placing the roads so that I can plop my mining buildings a very long trial and error process. As for larger city tiles and a completely "build-only" mode, IMHO it can't possibly come fast enough!
