I'm having problems with the frequency of trains banking up no matter how many lines I have in place it all leads to the one line outside the city limits. Speaking of which the game won't let me unlock anymore sections either, how many section does the game allow you to buy? Do I have to keep continuing building my population and adding monuments and the game then opens up more section? I have a population of about 150k btw.

Think you have the max allowed by the base game. Haven't delved into the mods yet but there should be one to let you unlock 5x5 tiles.

Xpac coming out for 10$ although you get a lot of the content for free anyway.

Day/Night cycle

Shiny!

Brand new expansion out today for 10$. Will drop the cash when I get more of a chance to play but you do get stuff for free regardless like the day/night cycle so patched it for a look.

Ooooh lovely.

Loved the game but two main things really annoyed me:

1) Trains from out of town would flood my system and make it 100% congested
2) Would crash a fair bit, although with 5 minute rolling autosaves this never hurt TOO much

Only had maybe 2 crashes myself.

Do you have sliplanes for trains not stopping at a particular station to allow them to bypass? I only have one line that links in/out currently but don't suffer too badly. One passenger station and two cargo.

I do have sliplanes, although they are way harder to make than they should be.

The issue is with trains coming from out of town. The track will be literally bumper to bumper all the way until across the map. I have to disconnect my local railway network from the foreign grid to clear things up.

Try turning down the budget allocation to trains then, should mean less services. If lots of them are only partially full up anyway it might help.

I did try a fair few things.

I'll probably start a new city with the expansion anyway. The old one was okay but nothing special as it was my first go so I learnt on the job.

Also with bike and bus lanes the whole city will need a re-design.

Any idea when the Win10/Xbox versions are released?

Nope, why would it matter for Win10 (if you are stupid enough to move to that yet)

Lovely.
Did this map before.
Cut off my city from water.
Wanted good energy so dammed up near where the two rivers merge on the right.
The rest of the river part went barren and my pumps had no water to pump :/

Just picked this up today after seeing a few YouTubes on it. Given the amount of time that i sent down the drain on Prison Architect I assume that's me done for a few 8 hour shifts this week.

 

[Chief]

Oh man - found I already had it on Epic as a freebie.

Submits Steam refund request...

So that was 5 hours well spent.

Up over 5k inhabitants with hospital and police HQ up. Expanded my land to a promising oil field but still have tons of jobs to fill. Need to sub out a big housing estate now. Maybe double my residential zoning.

Wait till traffic sneaks up on you and all your careful planning goes to shizz.

 

[Father Jack]

I find the 'employees needed' icon constantly flashing over half my industry to be kinda relaxing. Which is good because it never ever goes away

 

[Chief]

Got to 14k really quickly. Tried out a hydro dam but just ended up flooding the place. Promised me 48MW of power but never actually produced anything but a flood.

 

[Chief]

Moved it to the other end of the river, jammed it in at an angle and got 64MW.

Now have two solar arrays and $2 mil in the bank to build vanity projects.

I never have any joy with dams and they always play funny buggers with my water ways.
