But the noise! Figuring out the optimal way to zone so it’s not too noisy, polluted, and people have space to park is one of the trickier parts of the game. (But I like the challenge.)
The real trick is that everything doesn’t fit nicely in a nice neat little glove-fitty block irl, so mirror that.
Mixed zoning doesn’t necessarily mean you got office abutting residential abutting commercial abutting industrial.
Think of a suburb/city burb. Do you know any that have like 20 blocks of residential? None! Doesn’t exist! Maybe like 2-4 blocks max before you break up the neighborhoods with some commercial and light industry or some offices. Even residential neighborhoods have gas stations on the arterial roads connecting them.
So like, don’t look where the wind blows, where the fertile soil is, and say “okay that quadrant of the map is for all my industry.” You’ll get high resource costs due to traffic. Don’t make a mega commercial center, not even Broadway in nyc…
God dammit I havent played in like 2 months. Fine. I’ll make a new city.
Unless it’s Cities Skylines. Then they all die at the same exact moment and your entire network gets slammed with hearses unable to get anywhere.
LOL.
But to be fair, OP did not specify whether it’s Cyties Skylines or not.
Nah bro you just need more cemeteries and crematoriums, more hearses. Less dense neighborhoods with more mixed zoning.
