Reddit AMA 20th of August - DONE, but you can read it here

[TotalyMoo]

I can not participate in today's discussion
Will be able to read somewhere, later?

The thread will stay up on reddit and I will take all the questions that were answered and post them in a thread here.

 

[kent87]

Great! Thank You so mutch.

 

[Malkael]

Unfortunately it is probably a bit late in the night, or early in the morning if you prefer, for me personally. So here's hoping some of the questions I would have posed get asked by other people and hopefully answered.

Worst case scenario you can just bother us here with your questions afterwards

 

[Mav12]

Someone already asked about trams :c
Well, I always wanted CiM2 to go into SC4 side, especially because of mapsizes, for now it looks promising, but hey, implement http://nx42.de/projects/maps4cim/ , trams and basic route making from CiM2 and we will be happy.

This was very enjoyable. Maybe another one closer to release?

Considering the license or maps4cim, it has to remain separated but I must agree it would be fantastic to have that to generate map for C:SL

Serious can be good!

Someone tell this to the person who designed The Sims 4

It's not hard to contact the guy who made it, he is quite friendly and I am sure he would allow it to be included in CiS in some way.

Thanks for doing the AMA We got some very nice Q & A! Keep up the great work.

 

[Calad]

Main question was not asked:

Will there be comets?

 

[unmerged(402727)]

excellent AMA

One thing that scares me: You say people will only work within their own cities (9x9).

Does that mean that cims will not commute, like say from my residential area on one part of the map to a separate industrial or commercial area located on another part of the map? If true, why would cims crowd my beautifully constructed highways that will connect the cities?

Thanks

 

[Stagua]

I believe, they meant they can work only within one map you loaded on screen, not like they were able to go to work in another town within same SC4 region.

 

[Co_Karoliina]

Just like Stagua said, citizens move on the map with the connections provided (with their own cars, buses or the underground) so it's possible to have separate cities on the same map and people commuting to work from one to another. They just won't travel to work outside the map.

 

[Sotrax]

Talking about busses and subways .. I hope they have realistic capacitys.

 

[Philemon1976]

Is the subway system more Cim1-like or Cim2-like?
I'm asking especially for the design of the metro stations. Because I liked the Cim-1 version better...
