I had it turned off, it was an issue with parks operating hours, but I found a solution - with RICO i forced that metro entrance to be commercial and so i could regulate it's opening time

Is there a way you can keep the ambient city sounds when buildings are closed?

To the person asking about transport buildings. Turn off the option that says "building must have workers to operate" as this seems to turn off any building that doesn't have obvious staffing like metros and bus depo etc.

It's because it is a weekend so it is turning off the city sounds in the office area like no one is there anyone.
Jesus there goes my whole Sunday trying to fix a problem that doesn't exist.

Having Real Time mod active disables the ambient city sounds for office buildings.

Is there an option to open settings for transport buildings? I have an issue with a metro entrance that only operates from 6 to 22 due to sleep hours, so citizens can't enter metro

If I had dymanoid's original mod installed with my current game, am I able to switch to using this mod with my current game, or will I have to start a new game?

Everything in the Change Notes since 1.20.7

Right, but what features and mechanical differences are there?

This one has 2+ years more development than that one does.

What is the difference between this mod and dymanoid's original mod?

I really like the idea, but I'd love to increase the speed more than to just 6. It is sometimes extremely boring, especially at the beginning of a new city.

All good! Sometimes they take a minute to begin operating when you first place them.

Right now everything is ok, I don't know what happend. Ssory for you attention.

I've not do anything with these buildings, just placed them.

Have you adjusted the Operation Hours to be operational at that time?

Do you have "require workers" option checked?

When i put the post office on the road, It's allways closed and not working.

Nothing wrong with the Post Office here. What issues are you experiencing?

fix the post office building please.

@Mr.Peng - it does.

i love this mod so much,its very realistic.for instance,at ten o'clock at night,you can see a group of people coming home from work,its the same in reality.but i have a question,can this mod be compatible with balanced life cycle

Eldercare and child carer seem to be broken, at least in my game.. They are closing at night, so they kick out all their users each night, and there's no way to adjust working time like you can do with e.g. factories.

In my city of 10k with 35% seniors average usage of eldercare is 8 (eight!).

May i ask, is there a way to increase the time speed beyond 6?

Minor suggestion for realism: add the option to change the probability of construction work doing overtime or having night shifts similarly to what you have done for commercial, offices, industry, and schools; and have a separate slider for the shift starts and shift ends in construction.

In real life, certain construction projects will end their workday much later in the day, do 24-hour workdays, and/or even continue construction during weekends or holidays if they are required to do so (either to catch-up on delays or if the project is high-priority).

Im still running the original Real Time, so I haven't tested, but reading the comments and the authors descript, what I think *may* be going on with some stuff is a conflict with vehicle control. The original only touched citizens and RICO's. It did not touch vehicles. I have other mods that deal with vehicles, specifically commercial and services.

If I'm reading correcting, this mod is touching vehicles, particularity service vehicles. If you're having issues with vehicles (services seem to be the main issue) check if you have mods that touch vehicles and turn those off and see if it corrects itself.

Something is not working too well in meat garbage is not produced at all and the dead gather in houses and the cemetery is empty. old Real Time works. at least in this matter I turned off all mods except for this and nothing helped.

Hello :) I wanna ask that is there no solution at this moment for high crime rate in campus area (DLC) ? Because i found out that after the campus is closed , the crime rate has started to raise within the area, especially those building that are only connected by campus path. And it might relevant with the school administration building (Act as city service building in campus area) was closed. Thanks for help if there's any alternative solution.

Golf clap for your hours. If you don't want to use this mod, that's your prerogative. If you don't want help trying to figure out why you're having issues, that's your birthright. But, please don't mislead other players into thinking that a known, working, stable mod is going to cause them issues. That's disingenuous and damaging to the community as a whole. There are a lot of new players here from the Spring Sale and would be nice if they could find as much joy in this game as we have.

Also, to say that a mod works well with other mods, when “play it”, a mod that 80+% of “modded players” I’d estimate, have and use, is laughable and I see you just take the approach of blatantly not responding to those comments- extremely telling.

“It works well if you avoid mods that every single player uses” is… why I’m unsubscribing, I guess

“Check the beginners guide”

You, sir, should check my hours played, perhaps. Trying to explain the difference between an asset and a mod to someone who has 3000+ hours is comical.

I’m not trying to be an ass. I’m trying to leave a comment so that other heavily modded players might not hesistate to unsub from this mod to fix issues they are having.

I obviously want it to work- rush hour/CIMs going to school at the right time is awesome. But, it is the one singular mod that has caused the most issues across the many mod lists and playstyles I’ve tried in the 2800+ hours I’ve been modding my game

That's interesting to hear as I'm running it alongside about 80 other mods. And I do mean mods, not assets (about 250 of those). I haven't had any issues or seen it play rough with any other mods. However, I strictly followed the modlist on the Skylines reddit wiki to ensure I had a solid foundation before trying any additional mods. My only issue (with any part of the game at all) is with the "buildings require workers", which I believe is simply a lack of understanding the mechanic rather than a bug.
Not sure how you got to this point so I can only make the common suggestions:
Use Skyve
Check the "known bad or broken mod/assets" spreadsheet
Ensure your setup aligns with the Cities Skylines | A Beginner's Guide To Using Mods & Custom Content

Returning again to this mod comment section to re iterate that this mod simply doesn't play well with a great number of things and continues to give me more issues than any other mod affecting gameplay than I've ever used. Unfortunate as I really enjoy the realism it attempts to add to my city. Leaving this one behind for good.

could you incorporate "play it"s game speed feature in here? using that function in play it causes confliction with this mod and that feature is used by most people to have more realistic movement speed of vehicles&peds and also to help performance.

Demographics is the name of the mod that will give you a much better breakdown of the workforce and jobs in your city:

Here's Customize It Extended:
https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1806759255
That will allow you to adjust the number of each type of worker as well as a variety of other values. It's worth noting that I don't know of a way to confirm that the changes have taken effect on service buildings. It works on everything else so I assume it's working just as well on service buildings but as the service building UI doesn't show us workers... I can't confirm it.

You CAN actually, using Customize It Extended (I think that's the name.) However, I have about 20% excess of each education level and still my power plant won't open and the police station is sometimes not open. There's a mod that gives you a better breakdown of population, education levels, and employment percentages. I''l have to find the name so you can play with it too.
I'm going to try two things:
1. what happens if I set a service building to use only 1 uneducated worker.
2. Can I use RICO to change the service buildings UI type without changing its building type.
Two question I want to confirm with t1a2l:
Does the building have to have ALL of it's workers to operate? For example, if it's short just one worker but has the other 29/30 does it stay closed?
Do all service buildings automatically have continuous shifts?

Thanks again for the awesome mod. I'd be lying if I said I wasn't having fun trying to figure this out.

Yes! I am not the only one! I too have tried with the options in game but no option seems to work yet, other than disabling the main option of requiring workers to operate. I have noticed in other mods that allow you to adjust the number of citizens a building can house (ie: families per house, workers per commercial/industrial buildings), you cannot adjust the number of workers for the same buildings we are having issues with in this mod, emergency services etc. I don’t know if they relate, just a common factor i found between the two.

I would love to know that, as well. I have been trying, for several days now, to test different ratios of residential levels to maintain adequate workers for each level of employment. Despite having an excess of citizen for each education level, and leaving the simulation fast forwarding for several real-world hours to make sure they have time to get to their jobs, I cannot seem to consistently keep service buildings running. Nor can I seem to get a coal power plant to begin operating, again despite having sufficient workers of each level. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

When you have the "buildings need workers to operate" option selected, whats the best method to keep buildings open and functioning? I cannot figure out how to keep my hospital, snow dumps, and recycling depot open for more than one day....

Yes, but weird stuff will probably happen. See question 5 in the FAQ. The same would apply. As a general rule it is a bad idea to remove significant, gameplay-altering mods mid-city but, yes, it should be doable. Better to create a backup save you can fall back to if you don't like it

i have a question, if i activate this mod and save my city, will i be able to deactivate it without any problems? just wondering.

So, i'm getting cims going to work at 3 a.m. like, real RUSH HOUR in the middle of the night. Not sure if I mess up with some config, can you help me?

I get the same error with Harmony disabled

In CS 1 1.19.2-f3 i get exactly the same error that @EpicMatt66 reported at 30May.
I enable only Real Time and Harmony.

Does the "citizen instances" influenced by CPU performance or mod update? My city has 100k population, with citizen instance up to 60k in rush hour when used old real time mod. But now decrease to 40k after switch to this mod and with laptop.

Try adjusting it to 100% to see what happens? It sounds like you're using the slider backwards.

was fine until i switched to this version

Opposite, i set "Switch off buildings lights at night" to disabled and 'keep buldings lights on taller than this value' to 0. So theoretically all building should be on since they are <0.

Did you adjust the slider to 100%?

hi *wave* my taller buildings are still shutting their lights off at night, along with a few others that aren't tall at all. anyway to fix this? i want all buildings lit up all the time. thanks!
