It kind of doesn't make sense to me unless I'm thinking about it wrong. The homes are still there, people are still living there. The businesses are still there as well as the factories. Yet my income decreases over time. Why?
I just want an explanation... if it's "because you need to keep building your city, and it prevents you from sitting there and gathering money", that's a load of crock, and makes no sense.
i'm purely guessing but maybe it has to do with factories not getting their deliveries due to some traffic issues?
The best way to know for sure would be to keep an eye on budget panel and looking how revenue changes for each zone type and you'll see for sure what's the root of the problems.
Wow, so it's literally dependent on how much income the buildings get? That's a lot deeper than I thought. Turns out it's my commercial shops areas, I noticed they haven't been getting enough customers, so I guess that's why. Even watching it in the panel, the money is slowly dropping. I am guessing I would have to boost that with some tourism thing or the like?
The game doesn't have any money decay - If your weekly surplus is going down, there's a real reason for it. Industry not able to produce the goods it needs to stay around, commercial not getting their deliveries - Or people dying and new people slowly moving in.
