beleve what you want,this was pretty new and small city and i demolished only services and i was runing this thru the period of 1 month(game time) nothing really changed,also some buildings were showing as powered in power filter altho there were no power stations,true is that traffic was coming into city,prolly workers for comm. zone,but they not counting in city pop. read somewhere if you lower taxes to 0 from the bigining of your city even with no services pop. num will rise and density will rise cos people will move from other cities,will try that later

yeah,U prolly demolish part/s of highway connection,cos usually sims moving in even without power/water... also not sure but check your resid. taxes,if they are to high with pop. zero they maybe wont move in

some good stuff OP. i've been using simular tactics im my gamble/tourism city... what I also noticed u really have to pay atten. to how u place your commer. zones and also traffic,cos when u have a big number of tourist and no commer. zones/mass transit close to tourist attraction they go to next closest comm. zone by taxi(yellow cars) and if it is mixed with your resid. area u are in deep sh.. with your traffic,jams can last for days and crime will explode beyond control. also I completly gave up from casinos,they are just not reliable source of income and they are dependable of what time of a day is or if there are any events in city,also hourly expence and power demand are huge, I use only upgraded gambl. houses placed strat. around tourist atract.'s and close to my port/train stations,just 1 gambl. house very close to train st. making 50k profit per day ,and thats def. best return for pretty low expense of runing it

from official game forum,same poll.... Yes 14% [ 59 ] No 86% [ 359 ] Total Votes : 418

wow,great job,was wondering why we dont have this filter available..(except when bankrupt obv.)

see how the raw ore del. truck going into depot where i have only crude oil lot,and my oil delevery trucks are nowhere to see and my lot is always empty... this wasnt happening since today.. any1 else have this problem

was wondering where my oil trucks are....(metal truck also joined it in inspection of raw ore lot,LOOL)

why Antarctica???? after being frustrated with america and europe servers constantly dicconecting and rolling back my progress, i noticed Antarctica server is pretty solid,no disconn. issues prolly cos its less populated so i opened a new region called "Titan" on this server,its a 16 city region in early development.... nedd some very active player so we can fill this one with all great works not accepting more,fo now......

yeah,thats the point of my question,dont want lots of friends,but every time i tred to search region and join i couldn't. not joining your region cos sick and tired of america and europe servers keep disconnecting,so thats why i opened a new region on Antarctica server(super stable server,prolly cos of low traffic) anyway gl with your region,thx

srry,not applying but how can one join region without invitation? i know we have to invite some1 to join...

i making a fortune with tourist/gambling i totally neglecting my city,so my expences are minimum,no clinics,no fire dep. just some police to lower the crime a bit,I basicly just keep buldozing abandonded/burned houses and also demolishing houses where death occured,only thing what is broken maybe are people in game.they just keep coming back despite rsid./comm. area of city is in teible condition. obv. my tourist/gambling part is completly separated and doing great

exp-imp. working for me without any issues u checked your resources in depos are set to import-export? also import-export can be really slow due to highway trafic,also make sure you have max amount of del. trucks. best way to check is to click trading in your city specialization and from ther you can see if your trucks movin from/in your trade depos.

ok,thx. but our cities prolly gone anyway

i tried with casinos before and they are just not reliable source of income in long run cos they varie so much depending what time of the day is and if there are any events in city,and they cost a lot hourly and also consume lots of power so i just go with upgraded gambling houses scatered over my tourist atractions and event centers,I always put 1 g. house upgraded only for max. number of gamblers and 1 g. house upgraded only for tourist rooms close to each other and they are killin it pretty constantly thru the whole day and cost is double less than casinos per hour

yeah meto buses also taking all walking tourist home so they not making heavy trafiic by going out of town with taxis

yeah,i was playing whole morning and made a $%&^! load of money and than just got disconn. and cant rejoin my city,money prolly gone also cos prolly didnt get saved by server gg. EA

meh,i just starded another tourist destination,already raking money from da tourist and gamblers,busy busy busy....

as you can see in comments.... It doesn’t work. It’s a april fools

yeah,train station in tourist areais def. a key to sucess of casinos and tourist attraction i have gambling house just next to train station wich makes 50k daily also in the time of events i am mking 70k per hour income so yeah casinos can be succesfull. but all be advise crrime will skyrocket with more and more tourist and casinos

statuses totally unacurate on this site,my game keep disconecting from server today,and on the site say its online for the whole timeEDIT-great frickin job EA. game is up 2 minutes than is down 10 minutes,i just made 18 millions in my city without exiting,and now i cant even get in back,hope it didnt rollback...

great find

yeah casinos have big variance depending a time of the day,thats just the way it is,make sure you have atleast 2-3 tourist atraction in your casino area,this will keep em busy thru the whole day,also event centers help alot if they are in same area. also i have my tourist area set up next to train station and this is def. best place to have it imo....(example:have a gambling house with upgrades just next to train and its making 50k per day just make sure your comm. hotels are close to your casinos,event centers,tourist atr. etc. and also have really good mass transit cos if your comm. hotels are far away from tourist area they gonna pretty much drive your traffic to a hault cos they will travel with taxis to closest comm. hotel...

yeah,thx for pointing that,didnt even noticed...

I see you wrote "exporting" . make sure you have your resource set for "use locally" in trade depot not on exporting,cos if its exporting its going to global market not to G. work,also i think for more acurate info about progress u always go on region view and click on G. work

you will see the all delevery trucks if you click trading under your specialization,profit from trading is showing under recent transactions under your budget panel
