Hey all, as a big scenario player myself and i remember playing this scenario before it broke (probably due to game updates) it was fun. I went and edited the scenario and fixed the triggers causing an instant loss on startup. So i hope you all enjoy as i did in the past. Big thanks for Karistina for making this original scenario. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3322882879

Following thread to see if this fun scenario gets fixed! @Karistina, this looks so fun! I hope when you have time you can fix it :) :stardrop:

still not fix. Failed scenario as soon as loaded game:steamthumbsdown:

Same problem as the others.

Yup, same as kcates94. Note that I do not have Disasters DLC and it says you need it - but I played earlier versions of this scenario successfully. Thanks much for updating for this latest update (which seems like it broke a lot of stuff). I agree 175k is a high goal, involving so much new city that little is left of the original.

Please remove or change the fourth drain pipe at the water pumps or allow for 5 drain pipes

I hope you can fix it, the premise looked entertaining.

Hmm, I will have to look into the problem and see if I can fix it.

This was one of my favorite maps to start with, but after a clean install i have the same problem as kcates94 below. The scenario fails upon loading because of 4 drain pipes build, and upon checking the goals the oil powerplants and landfill sites conditions have also been fullfilled on a clean load. Upon checking the map, there are only 3 instances of those items, so something somewhere goes wrong unfortunately.
I hope this either gets solved by an update to the map, or a game update, as it was working fine before the financial districts update.

I just downloaded this. When I start it I get a message saying I have failed for building 4 drain pipes but I literally just started it :(

Thanks for this scenario! I've played this multiple times and really enjoy the sense of satisfaction when I fix everything.

@Hello-Gordon Pretty much! :stBeerMug:

so basically you just recreated what i do in every game. torture people.

Now that I've finished it, this was a slog to experience for myself. One could easily get away with making the population goal be 75k or 100k; based on how easy it is to get the other goals by comparison. Maybe that's just my play-style though, and it took this scenario to find out.

In the end struggling to find spaces for extra office blocks to keep meeting demands so that the city would keep growing was not an experience I wish to have again. The start was really solid so props to you there, but it was funny that the river actually dried up before I finished gwhaha. (too many pumps, not enough water towers lol)

I watch Biffa play this and it was brilliant excellent job :steamhappy:

It's fun at first as you look at all the effort taken to get the city to the shape it's in - having the Oppression Office shrouded in smog is a fantastic touch.

But once you get to ~20-30k population and start turning a weekly profit it really is just your normal game, didn't really feel that special. Random money gains and losses got a laugh, but at this point it was fairly negligible.

Unless 100k pop is actually much faster to achieve than I think, and I'm spending too much time keeping the traffic flow up gwahaah...

Came here right after watching the news today.. somehow this all seems familiar:

But it wasn't a mayor..
DonDon22 Aug 21, 2019 @ 11:37am 
im building in the specialty industry area but nothing is building and I have a demand for industries
I tested it with residence and still nothing builds I only have the mass transit dlc what could be the problem?

Why would the emphasis be on the word "was"?. Say that aloud. How does that make sense?
chaosmonger231 May 9, 2019 @ 2:27pm 
Probably the best scenario in the workshop right now
Nicole12890 Apr 6, 2019 @ 12:41am 
This is the first scenario I downloaded and i'm having a lot of fun with it! It's a bit of struggle sometimes, but I'm managing quite alright for a noob player.

Disasters: No natural disasters. The previous mayor WAS the disaster. YOU are responsible for disaster recovery.

Those are the most unpleasant words I have read since I got the Natural Disasters DLC.
Can someone do me a favor and get the Irish youtuber RTGame here? He knows how to use Level 500.0 disasters.

10 seconds later- COUNTRY ROADS, TAKE ME HOOMMMEEE!!!!

I unlocked these unique buildings by saving, then working, and once it unlocks, I reload. No harm done.

Wolfe1924 Apr 11, 2018 @ 8:52pm

Wolfe1924 Apr 11, 2018 @ 8:52pm 
i love this scenario its definitly one of the top few its a balance of challenging but fun
greenlandseabear Jan 6, 2018 @ 5:47am 
Nice. Just a little long time needed to reach 175k :steamhappy:
tobhjelm Sep 2, 2017 @ 12:10pm 
I'm having a really hard time getting my population up! The other two criteria have been met, but I've only got a year or two to go and am nowhere near 175,000. It was really fun turning the town around from complete disaster, though!

Some mayor that was...
Karistina  [author] May 10, 2017 @ 2:45pm 
@franktank Thank you so much! I will certainly have to create a collection of my scenarios. I do enjoy creating them!

Nice, I like it
