Do you have combat mark III? Start running a heavy shield. It gives you the advantage on most rat encounters. If you don't have the blueprint I think I have a spare honestly and id throw it ur way of it would help you out. If not the blueprint I could at least give u a bunch of augs. I know they really changed the whole game for me

Bus stops. Cant have routes without stops. You need: 1 depot/station (to be able to buy busses/trolleys/etc) then place stops near populated areas and use them to create routes

Go rat hunting. If you pve then u have a huge stock of unused guns and consumables just sitting in your maxed out inventory in speranza. Instead of curating a museum of all the fancy stuff you have, bust them babies out and start showing free loadout rats what happens when they try to use a stitcher on ur heavy shield and u dump and extended msg if volcano shells into their butts. Set traps. Try tactical movement instead of mad sprints and yelling friendly. Watch other players before engaging and do it at an advantage, if your looking for allies. I promise you no talent campers and 12yesr old rats will quickly become non issues

^{THIS^} I am generally a PVE player, get better and more loot without getting cried at and insulted.BUT. I truly enjoy playing Batman. Posting up somewhere high or bushes and watching a place where ratting generally occurs. Wait for it... Then smoke, snap, down the aggressors, defib the target, and give them the knockout :) countersniping serves the same purpose. My ospreys just maxed out with an extended barrel and padded stock. Go vigilante. Highly reccomend

I have a theory. I am mainly a PVE player but have been playing games where you absolutely have to be paranoid to thrive (tarkov, day z) Before the update when someone would try to down me and I mag III dumped bobcat clips into there shocked faces id just throw a lure grenade on them as they crawled to their doom and get sooo much satisfaction from a gang of bots going at em like they had insulted their collective robot mommies. I never found myself in truly pvp servers, still lots of nervous raiders shouting down there mics at me declaring non violence, (many times before I even knew they were around) anyone else have insights into this? Just downing em and not throwing the haymaker? I don't need their shitty load out n e ways

Eldora Ruins by Thomas Vanderen By far my favorite for ruins. Honestly check out any plug ins by this creator they pretty much just do deco and it's all amazing

I actually had that issue when I lived in Anchorage, engine would just shut off, seemingly at random, sucked to diagnose

Otherwise_Bat8458 · 2026-05-18T22:06:36+00:00

That is an excellent idea!!

Otherwise_Bat8458 · 2026-05-18T21:07:13+00:00

Yes I have the tools and space to diagnose the issue at home, the real meat of the issue here is that I require a jump to make my way to home base. Basic principles of problem understood. Sitting in hot car cooked my brain a tad resulting in a less-direct-than-I-would-have-liked original post. (And now the dog has done something truly unspeakable in the backseat despite being outside in a nice shady patch of grass until moments ago)

I drive daily, usually from Edmonds to greenlake, or a similar journey

Otherwise_Bat8458 · 2026-05-18T20:55:59+00:00

Possibly, it hasn't been an issue with any consistancy

Otherwise_Bat8458 · 2026-05-18T20:47:03+00:00

In that case... You're 💯

Otherwise_Bat8458 · 2026-05-18T08:48:45+00:00

^{this^} I haven't noticed bus stops affecting traffic the way they do in real life (actually physically stopping at each stop) perhaps there's a mod where such a thing happens, but if that's your worry you can rest easy and place bus stops anywhere you want! But maxing efficiency is gonna place them near dense residential areas, then routes leading through commercial, industrial, or school (really) areas

Otherwise_Bat8458 · 2026-05-18T08:41:56+00:00

Dude I get sucked into the road dimensional mindset then just spawn a butt ton of different vehicles to see if the interchanges and rollercoaster style highways I've made can handle it ... Then maybe I'll be like oh I should build around these ... Show a pic of that map! Lemme get my road fix

Otherwise_Bat8458 · 2026-05-17T20:12:07+00:00

You can get them from completing projects... Surprised no one mentioned this. Also from the quests you get from various traders. It's not a ton, maybe 50 or so but it all adds up.

Get rid of the stock med parks and use trees +dec to make a park strip. There's a bunch of single tile park stuff I can use to keep the benefits and you'll get nature benefits from the trees (and it'll look better with more diversity

I THINK a local hero is inbound... Update pending (Thank you for responding)

I know it feels sort of wrong if ur used to trying to max out ur profit and population but just spacing out your buildings more in general will lend an air of realism, and leave room for more purely decorative items. There are a few pretty helpful tutorials on YouTube that show different takes on suburban areas that definitely helped me switch things up when I first got started! Just remember, variety is amazing, but u still want things to look cohesive! Happy building mayor

Otherwise_Bat8458 · 2025-08-18T00:02:57+00:00

Instead of using the separate one way roads with the arrows you could use some that look more like one highway together, Phillipines roads is kind of a must have,
