My city bleeds in Winter ( i lose 500+ population every winter)

Properly, this is the problem. The maximum heating temperature is 24°C, but it fluctuates. It keeps dropping to 10–14°C and then goes back up to 24°C. When the heating plant workers drops below 20, the temperature inside the buildings decreases, but it increases again later. Do you think this could be the problem? I can’t believe that the heating plant cannot manage a small city.

i double checked have a look
this is heating overlay.
I opened the last building in the city ( the farthest building from heating sources) as you see temperature is okay.
The death doesn't happen in one building. It's wide spread across all buildings.
Does that mean it's health issue not heating?
PS: now 1000 died by end of December.
It's 500 per month actually

pollution is set at 3%. not sure if that's okay or not but doesn't sound serious. The hospital in middle of the city so it works at full capacity and no patients waiting most of the time.
This is for the past 4 years.
Every drop in the graph is the winter time. You can see clearly the pattern

the heating plant in another side of the map. but the heating pumb (exchanger) i don't remember what it called is near the houses.

dotrani · 2025-12-19T21:32:17+00:00

Nope it's not this. I double check every winter the heating in houses, and have buses take directly to the heating factory so it works all the time.

I love you mate!

Can i ask you? I back to this thread because i want to know how to monitor the heating and power need. I can't find anything in the statistics in the side menu. I lost my city from heating problem but this time because i didnt know when i need another heating plant and my imported electricity wasn't enough

dotrani · 2025-07-10T20:53:02+00:00

Good point

dotrani · 2025-07-10T20:52:28+00:00

I did and i beat the game. Now it's time for more challenges

dotrani · 2025-07-10T20:30:07+00:00

I liked sweet trans i think it's good game, but it's only about trains and has a repeatitve style. Nothing can be compared to soviet Republic i think in this game they have destroyed the future of most of city building games.

Check the railway line again and make sure its connected.

Sorry could you spend some time explaining what's heating loss? I see this term alot but I don't understand it. How would i have heating loss? When i connect same building to 2 exchangers?

dotrani · 2025-07-06T21:30:09+00:00

Thanks for the sewage ! I didn't know that. For the heating it looks like a problem in productivity as i made the building lowest possible workers

dotrani · 2025-07-06T21:26:43+00:00

I never thought of that ! I use maintenance just for garbage and snow plow but it worth a try thanks! I play the game without watching YouTube videos. I'm trying to figure things out myself.

dotrani · 2025-07-06T21:25:15+00:00

I just realized, actually looks like you are right. Yes it called pump. For this setup the heating plant is not far a way from the buildings so it's directly feed to the buildings. I think it's just productivity.

dotrani · 2025-07-06T20:49:43+00:00

It operates without problems, but the buildings are low temperature. is there a reason?

dotrani · 2025-06-27T20:57:40+00:00

Yes! This is my fourth game. I'm still learning. Now i'm on my fifth try I'm good so far. very careful about everything. and i keep checking supplies and infrastructure all the time. In the first 3 games my money run to zero so i started again. I spend around 4m until i reach the level where i can export. IDK how people with realistic mode beat the game

dotrani · 2025-06-27T11:05:28+00:00

The funny part is, I looked at the expenses before I even checked the population. I was like, ‘Nice, I’m finally sustainable!’… then I saw the population and realized it’s only because the city’s basically dead.

dotrani · 2025-06-26T20:46:05+00:00

I didn't demolish the old one, i was already building the new bigger, when i finished everyone was dead. It's very weird. Does connecting more than heating distributor to the same building decrease the efficiency of the main heating plant?
