Really hope adding capacity to the elementary school isn’t the final “fix” to the unbalanced education system that leads to high schools going virtually unused and elementary schools having thousands of students.

What about post service? The post is just broken and you're not fixing it in the next week neither??? I have 15% malus all over the city because of that, I can't even play properly! Address this issue ASAP, it's unplayable in this state.:(
EDIT:
[at the edit 8 disagree, 6 agree]
People think that I'm being "rough" probably, not knowing that I have been patient for months, since the game has been anounced. I know how to stay civil, but not when someone makes j on me, like when they say "in sake of transparency" only two weeks before release, or when they delete every comment that says something about performance, or when they test our patience to understand what is the limit people are ok with before they get mad, so that they can still make cash with the least effort possible, or even when they make strict rules on this blog that does not allow you to write even a simple consideration. I don't know if there's for real an transparent team, or it's all just a fiction and they just pr*tend to "listen to community" while searching ways to drain us pr*tending that they are hardly working.

I'm sure it's not. Just a temporary fix to make the game play better right now while they work on bigger stuff. Do agree though that schooling needs a big balance pass

That's very cool though I think only School and Clinic needed adjustments.

HOWEVER...could you maybe explain how exactly "coverage calculation actually works in school and clinics as it doesn't appear to be a straight up distance from the building...sometimes streets that are right next to the building don't have coverage while something far away has full coverage...knowing how it exactly works would be very helpful.

Also...post sorting facility fix?
