This is a more general game publishing/marketing question, but you're one of the most transparent game-related companies I know so here goes: /u/TotalyMoo recently explained on a stream why Russia gets lower pricing for Cities: Skylines; the economy is weaker than in, say, the nordic area, so wages are lower and people can't afford to pay the same prices as American/Swedish/Finnish consumers. Not doing this encourages piracy and ends up with less total profit because fewer people can afford your game. Now, Poland's economy is worse off than Russia's, the average wage is about 3 or 4 times lower than in Sweden, and we are not in the Eurozone. Talking with friends here, they generally don't seem to have the disposable income to afford the western prices of games. Why is it that Poland gets the same prices as the Eurozone/Scandinavia, while Russia gets the price cut by 6?

I know quill18 noticed that with the solar plant not working during the night and the electrical requirements not shrinking proportionally during the night, solar plants were effectively useless with no way to store power for the night. Any plans to resolve this?

Interestingly, I can't seem to find any mods which increase these limits, but I'd imagine they wouldn't be too complex to code up. Someone with more knowledge on the matter could comment better, though.

What I've learned from C:S :

  • don't ever allow a left turn on busy streets, build an overpass on every corner
  • zone first, demolish housing to build schools later
  • only ever use 2-lane roads on your most busy arteries, anything more will force you to use traffic lights which slow down traffic
