Notice that the residential housing faces the street, not roads. The water pumps are far to the north, drawing pristine water from the forests.ĭetail on the residential/commercial zone. The coal powerplant and landfill is tucked in the corner. The industry currently consists only of agriculture. I've got low-density residential along streets, with medium- and low-density commercial lining the main avenue and roads. There are two main blobs, polluting and non-polluting. With hills and the coast boxing us in, we'll have a main north-south axis. Since our future industrial zone will be to the southwest of here, for continuity's sake we will put our industrial zone in that corner. If you feel like going back to downloading NAM now, I highly encourage it. The plan is subject to change, but this is gives you an idea of the scale you need to be thinking on to get the simcity 4 experience. We'll start in the top right, create a starter city with a balanced mix of residential, commercial, and industrial, and just work our way, down the numbers, to eventually build a mega-city, with residential zones feeding into it, and a industrial zone by the bay.

Simcity has a lot of features, I'll only use a few of them. I'll be playing rather deliberately, simply, and slowly. This is demonstration of one way to play SC4, which I hope will be useful to some people. I am no expert in Simcity, I am not claiming that this is the best, fastest, or most efficient way to play. So much fun, that I wanted to share it here with fellow TL players who might be looking to play Simcity 4 (SC4) again, or for the first time. Like many Simcity fans, I was underwhelmed by the new one, which inspired me to dust-off Simcity 4 and play that again.
