Sim City Great Works

[Number29]

Dear Sim City players!

I've built my first ever great work on one of my regions (the solar farm). However, when I start a new city in one of the vacant plots, the new city can't see the great work and thus I can't send power to the city (the great work plot shows as empty and the game invites me to build something else in the space).

Does anyone know how I get the great work to register and show for these new cities? At present I only have one city on the map and it was my understanding that all cities connected to the great work site would benefit from it, not just the one that existed when I built the thing.

Many thanks

#29.

This appears to be another case of the lauded interaction between plots on a region which means we don't need bigger cities - until you find out that at the moment, it for the most part, simply does not work.

You should be satisfied you managed to build a great works at all. For my first attempt at a great works, I had 4 cities building resources for a spaceport - got half way through before the great works decided it would no longer accept fuel from my fuel producing city, nor processors from my Processor production city. The resource bars on the spaceport got to about 90% then on the next load dropped to 25% and never moved again.

You may try logging in a bit later on (like tomorrow) and see if the server has updated for new plots yet - but don't hold your breath.

With that in mind you did well to get it built - now just make sure you have plenty of fire services within easy reach of the solar farm, because that thing loves to BURN...
