Hi all,

Perhaps you will be able to enlighten me about strange behaviour in my city :)

1.
Before being struck by a big tsunami my traffic was pretty smooth, there is obviously some red spot but there was no stuck situation.
The tsunami wiped out my main commercial zone and due to lack of consumer all building were abandoned. Cims "naturally" went to other commercial zone and this new traffic flow overwhelmed few spot of road.
I though it will not be a problem when the main commercial zone will be restored.
However now that my commercial zone is like before the traffic is not coming back to it's initial state.

Is it possible that the traffic/agent simulation was totality changed by the disasters? New cims, new preferred path, new job place,...

2.
Since the DLC I have few residential zone which lost level up due to lower land value. I think it's due to the new mail service because nothing should have changed in that zone.
Until now I assumed that new service from all the DLC did not change the amount service needed compare to vanilla but act like as a booster (1) . But now I think it's could be a wrong assumption.

Before industries my zone is at level 5 because the land value is at 50€/m2 .
2 possibility after Industries activation
1) it's still the case after and mail service will boost it to 55. Building stay at level 5 because it's above 50.
2) land value decrease to 45€/m2 because mail is now needed to maintain the 50€/m2.

It all makes sense while I wrote the post but I still appreciate your input :D

Bye

Ok I run a few test I could done/though before this messy big post :eek:

Disable industries and load a map which was never played with it. No change on the land value, so my (1) is probably correct (and logical) and something else decease the land value.
I don't have any clue what it is yet but I will manage :)

You can go back to your cities :D

Note that a tsunami has a seldom mentioned side effect: The tsunami water that doesn't collapse buildings causes buildings to level up when it comes close. After the water recedes, those buildings complain about low land value (they are not seaside properties anymore) and will abandon. I think it's technically a bug that should be fixed, but it has always been that way.

Good catch because It could be exactly that :)
I was able to load a save prior to the tsunami, these residential are at the near the river and close to level up.
In fact they complain to not be flooded any more :D

Thanks :)
