Azure Skye

umm... uhhh... words fail me... except these few: Why is there a "minimize" button in the top right area? 'tis confusing... Otherwise, I am astonished and amazed at the quality of the assembly work here... I might just devote a huge lot of my time to such creative endevors such as these... Consider yourself an inspiration... -Azure Skye

U-Drive-It: A lame attempt at integrating Streets, SimCopter, and The Sims with SimCity... the Isometric view is its primary issue... No Random Disasters: It can't really be that hard to make a simple random number generator for this, can it? People who moan about the fallacies, instead of coming up with creative solutions: Sorry, what? I'm not making fun of this thread! Regional Terraforming: Like SC terraformer... Shoulda been there from the get go... Lack of diagonal buildings: This one is some what understandable... but only somewhat... Lack of rivers, waterfalls, etc: Seriously, the tool was so close to being finished! Lack of Arcos: Okay, they're not realistic, but they're damn cool! -Azure Skye

Man, I'd love to go through my city in Streets of Simcity style or SimCopter style... those were such excellent games... Really SC5 should just be an engine, a bunch of tools, and some standard content. So its basicially made to be modded in every concieveable way from the get go, rather than trying to lock us down... It'll be quite interesting to see where the Sim series goes from here... -Azure Skye

Hrmmm... well thats not fun... Although most of the pieces that need to be tabbed are pure eyecandy anyways (like trails and stuff... those might actually become useful, then...) Also, why would it have to be included in NAM? -Azure Skye

Could you make them pretend to be transit related? -Azure Skye

Quick question: Would it be possible to take several similar buildings (Like wall sections) and combine them into one lot that you tab through the variations like a puzzle piece? -Sheepe

Quick question: Will there ever be HSR Y intersections... W intersections? Or are they already there and I missed something awhile back?

Ugly pointless towers... SkyCity is cooler... as it is a self contained city... 'sides they should've rebuilding the WTCs... -Azure Skye

Ah, I see what you mean -Sheepe

Hi, I'm kinda new, so forgive me if I do something dumb... 1. Emergency - Fire suppression foam, instead of water - Decompression Response Team - Police - Medical 2. Parks - Not glass domes (radiation and the like go through glass, possibly germanium, but thats really expensive, I believe) - Most likely underground 3. Military Base - Why? -Azure Skye

Hi, I'm new here (heck, I haven't even played SC4) I'm just here to suggest things that realistically work... sorta 1. Power - Wind - Static - Bio reactor (bacteria that produces electricty when digesting garbage) - Fission - Heavy Water - Liquid Metal - Fusion - MHD ~ Subspace Energy (wooo! Sci-Fi) - Wide Wavelength Solar - Solar Farm - Microwave ~ Space Elevator ~ Magnetic/Gravitational (requires 'vator) - Solar Wind 2. Water - From Earth (not nearly as expensive as you might think) - 'Deep Core mining' - Polar Mining ~ Heavy Water Refinment - Carbonaceous Astroid Mining 3. Garbage - Thermal Depolymerization - Landfill (just bury it under some soil, it might eventually decompose and help terraform the planet) - Recycling - Bio reactor 4. Atmosphere - Bio reactor - Lichen Farm - From Earth ~ Heavy Water Refining ~ Ice Extraction - Carbonaceous Astroid Mining 5. Transportation - Walking - Electric carts - Maglev - Pressure Tube - Mag Tube 6. Other Concepts - Pollution - Mars has no real biome that can be ruined - As Terraforming progresses, wind power and solar may become less effective - Gas would have to be piped, possibly combined with Pressure Tubes - Power lines would have to be buried - Water piping could also be combined with gas piping Also, I'm gonna have to shoot down Matter/Anti-matter. Where are we going to get the anti-matter (Its not very common to find in the ground) And iron oxide (Fe2O3) doesn't really produce a whole lot of energy. But I have witnessed it produce a lot of energy, when 1. A very fine and pure powder of Fe2O3 was mixed with a very fine and pure powder of Al, then 2. a little bit of sugar is added on top, and a drop of HCl to start the reaction, and bam! you have a very big bright flare... fun! (we did it at camp) So I guess it would be possible, but you would have to import huge amounts of Al and HCl -Azure Skye On an ironic note: I just downloaded Outpost 2
