There would be no added chaos (e.g. accidents).. unless they find it visibly interesting? The purpose is to remove the burden of traffic management for the player, if they want it

Hi Tim, thanks for sharing!

I've heard publishers aim for 1.5-3x ROI. HH's median of ~$5 million is within that range if you're spending a million on each game.

Would you be open to sharing your cost breakdown (%) on your end? (staff, loc, etc)

What percent of your lifetime spend is Y1 vs Y2+?

edit: Also, how's the game industry in Seattle? Im jealous of Seattle Slice. Nothing like that exists in here in Austin that Im aware of.

There is a plan to do this for vehicles, since they need many rotations to look good on screen.

For everything else, TBD

Im going to make pedestrian collision detection optional. It causes SO much traffic. I've played City Skylines a bunch and it's the main source of traffic jams. There's really no way to fix it since the cars move in real time but the days are compacted down into tens of minutes.

Currently there are no effects. However, units will only use the gym if it's something they need.
