I do know that there are road blocker for no trucks or bus only but I haven't given them a try before. -
Tutorial - Rob's Guide to SimCity 4

Thank you both, I just always find my freight stations and seaports barely get any use so I thought it may be that the small neighbouring cities weren't demanding any freight be sent their way. -
Tutorial - Rob's Guide to SimCity 4

For the freight stations and neighbour connections. Does Industry and freight care what's on the other side of that connection? Would a tile of mostly Commercial or Residential or more Industry draw more freight traffic than the others? -
My copy of the game takes forever to open, about 10-15 minutes. 5 minutes to load a city tile and then gameplay is perfectly fine and smooth unless trying to exit the zone view or subway station plopping. All other data views good, water pipes good, subway tracks good. I've wondered if this was normal and have just put up with it for a long time now but will try the suggestions above and hope for the best. I own the game on disc but my newest laptop didn't come with a disc drive and this was before I knew about Steam and other online legal ways to acquire games. Any chance a fresh install of the game from a trusted source could help any of these issues?

Hi Fred, which region are you using here? Is it one found on the exchange? Thanks.

Train Station behaving oddly (tds29_TerminalStation)

Very interesting, you guys have gone above and beyond my knowledge of how the game works but it's still cool to read all the updates in this thread. I believe the newly edited building is working much better. No weird disappearing. -

You need the God Mode tools. I forget if it's on Simtrop or SC4 but it's an easy install.

Train Station behaving oddly (tds29_TerminalStation)
tails2489 replied to tails2489's topic in SC4 - Custom Content
Hey thanks so much for the replies and providing the new link. I'll give it a shot later on when I get back in the game. I didn't think this was prop pox but just thought it was curious that out of the 3 or 4 really odd issues I've run in to while playing over the years 2 of them involved a bunch of plopped Calgary lots and the first instance was definitely prop pox. Just a coincidence though it seems. Thanks again for your awesome help! -
Train Station behaving oddly (tds29_TerminalStation)

Hello, I've encountered a similar problem with an office building in an old city I am currently re-working and fixing up. The lot in question is @kellydale2003's awesome Eighth Avenue Place. I plopped two of the across the street from each other when doing a bunch of work on the city while on pause. When I pressed play one of them disappeared within a month of time on the fastest speed and I cannot demolish the base that's left. Do you think this is related to the issue I had before and in that case is there something wrong with the way my game is functioning or something in my plugins folder is causing this? As opposed to an issue with the two lots themselves that have acted oddly. Also, this is probably not the issue but I find it curious that I first discovered what prop prox was from making a city recreation of Calgary and of course plopped everything I could find on the Exchange from Calgary in to that city. Now in this case I am using an old Vancouver based city but am plopping not only Vancouver lots but anything I can find from Western Canada in to it, including all the same Calgary lots. Can one of these Calgary landmarks be the causing the same issue in this city as my previous one??? -
Wow thanks! A lot of pre-planning but I see now how so many of the best city builders on here get that clean coastline look.

Hi @chfzdn, is this what you mean? Connecting two non-neighbouring cities with ferries? https://www.sc4devotion.com/csxlex/lex_filedesc.php?lotGET=3552

Hi, sorry to piggy back on your thread here, but I had a question about how to add blank regions to the Top of an existing region?? I know how to edit the config file to enlarge the region but I can only add to the bottom and the right side of the map using that method. I already attempted once by naming each city in my region, editing the config and then importing the cities down but then I messed up when I re-edited the config and all the blank cities at the top were lost, making all my work for nothing. I don't know if it's just my game/computer or if it's like this for everyone but it takes quite a bit of time to do it that way. Any assistance from the pros would be most appreciated!

The tall gold coloured tower in the middle. Never saw this one before. @Captain Slow ?

I've added a walled city/imperial palace/ancient seat of government type campus to the downtown of one of my major cities using @thianz's uploads. I think it looks a little bare if I just use the base floor all throughout. Any park or monument suggestions for the center of this??

Take care of yourself! Looking forward to hearing all positive updates.
