Been having some weird issues with power tonight, I'm generating 240Mw and only using 195 of it yet I'm getting areas with blackouts even though absolutely everything is connected to the grid. I'm stumped.
you never seem to need much commercial
Anyone made their own building yet? I made a simple one, unwrapped the textures, baked the required maps but nothing appears when I select its name in the tool.
It's nothing fancy - just a rectangle - just wanted to test I could get it in.
Apparently all that is required to at least view it is the mesh.

I have been having a dabble in map making but the water is pita for me. Never seem to get it right. I shall have another blast later.
I am trying to make a flatish map with a lake near the middle and have it with loads of those little bushes, a bit like the dry arid land of the USA. Then I shall make lots of small towns using basic water towers (I presume you don't need water source near by for those?) and farming industry.
Do you need motorway/highway running through all the tiles? or just roads and or trains?

Its a mod hack, which basically reverts the 'achievements disabled' when you use a mod. Essentially you can use various mods without the steam achievements being disabled. Theres been a few mods which ive fancied using, like the 25 tiles, auto-delete rubble buildings and auto-save mods, which i dont want to forfeit achievements for. Seems like you wouldnt need to with this. I suspect theres quite a few decent mods out there and we're just days into the release, and yet many of them dont have implications on the ability to achieve goals (some probably do - unlimited money etc) when the player might simply want to do the hard mode, yet cant get achievements at the same time.
Disclaimer: I havent tried it yet, but if you enable it and another mod, load up a save or create a new one, and then save as a new filename and see if its enabled/disabled achievements (theres a trophy icon if its enabled) then you'll be able to tell for yourself. If you dont save, it cant damage an existing game, so double-check for yourself.
Im also going to add a few decent (daft) pics from reddit too

Make sure all your power plants are actually connected to the grid. I get this all the time when I shove a power station down and down actually put it in range of other buildings
Very nice. How are you finding the traffic at those sort of numbers?
7 tiles? hard to tell
Badly
Its the amount of traffic coming into the map from the outside.Here is one zone welcome to hell
I now used the mod that unlocks all of the tiles.
The performance on the PC is still good.
.fbx often needs scale adjustment so that doesn't shock me I just normally stick with the .blend files.
Glad you got it working. Maybe you can make a good train and sea cargo terminal with a 6 lane 1 directional street so I can reduce some of the traffic jams I am getting!
