Salutations, Mayors! Today's patch is our first step towards addressing issues with early game zone demand. We streamed a bit of the progress on Twitch last night, where the VOD is still available for those interested.

Version 0.0.58.11 ALPHA

Development News



• Weve made significant improvements to the long standing issue with early game zone demand. The early game should now be much less frustrating and tedious.

  Features

  
  
• Density now grows faster up to Density 3. Density 4-10 is unchanged.
• Workers now get jobs immediately when moving to the city. Workers also get a new job when they get laid off, and 90% of the time when losing a job due to a long commute. This dramatically reduces unemployment, and now unemployment matches the Target Unemployment Rate. More information on this will be detailed on the blog at lonepine.io
• Community, Health, Prosperity and Crime now influence population growth.
• Factories have zero demand until the city has 1,000 people.
• Offices have zero demand until the city has 10,000 people.
• Mixed Use has zero demand until the city has 20,000 people.

  Fixes

  
  
• Fixed edge scrolling in all video modes.
• Fixed several issues that could cause population growth to stall in the early game.
• Fixed two situations which would cause a crash.
• Fixed a bug where statistics which count people by education level could be negative or inaccurate.
• Fixed an issue where houses turned gray when zooming out.

  Known issues

  
  
• Mid-late game mass transit can be buggy and isn't where it should be.
