I'll fix it. [editline]9th March 2012[/editline] Well, Im trying to...

how do you people keep buggering this up?

I have it all in my recycle bin for some stupid reason. If you're missing anything tell me and I could drag it there.

Alright. I fixed it. [editline]9th March 2012[/editline] Just drag it all back, if you can Burger.

Done. Let us never speak of this again.

nevermind, got it working. [editline]9th March 2012[/editline] Whoa! who fucked up the island I was going to take?

I created the cities of Seaside and South Seaside.

What the fuck happened to everyone's cities?

-Snip- Nevermind, I was wrong.

Less than a hour in and the region is fucked! [editline]9th March 2012[/editline] Lets not make comments on water things please

I made a small island in the corner if that's alright. [editline]9th March 2012[/editline] aaaand my island just vanished.

I'll be taking two random small places... Drexel Hill is already up.

It looks like it's fixed. I think it's people trying to take other people's regions. [editline]9th March 2012[/editline] I don't want to accuse anyone of anything, but Whoever Blake Miller is, your overwriting a few people's cities I think. Just stick to one region, please.

There seems to be a problem. People build these HUGE towers, then instantly start complaning they cant get jobs or their commute is too long then the next month abandon the damn thing. Its pissing me off. [editline]9th March 2012[/editline] Half my residential is abandoned. Aborting the city

...Uh...Drexel Hill is now gone... [editline]9th March 2012[/editline] Dammit! Blake Miller has conflicted with my city!

Someone is going around overwriting other people's cities. I'm trying to figure out who it is.

OKAY FUCKING SERIOUSLY! Whoever this Blake Miller is, keeps resetting my city back to before I expanded it further! I'm about to flip my desk!

My city keeps disapearing...

[editline]9th March 2012[/editline] Wow, my Dropbox just popped up and said "Updated 752 files" or something to that effect.

All I can say is constantly save your regions guys.

rip the region for reals this time

[editline]9th March 2012[/editline] Half my residential is abandoned. Aborting the city[/QUOTE] I think I've seen this before. I'm working on a strategy to resolve this. Right now I'm starting to zone the entire city with medium density, and then superimpose high density onto potential downtown areas. So far it's looking good, I can get a few skyscrapers without screwing up. If your region's coastal then placing some ferry terminals near residential zones will do wonders. The problem likely arises out of the sheer amount of traffic each tower generates or out of the sluggishness of commerce to respond to the increase in residential population. Therefore, alternate strategies include zoning swathes of commerce around small clusters of high density residential, or planning high-capacity methods of transportation between specific residential and commercial towers. You're using NAM, of course, so if there are other means at your disposal then employ them. The whole thing could be avoided, of course, through the complete absence of towers and instead a slower growth involving low-rises spread across the map. I'm afraid you can't really slap a band-aid on it, this is something you need to nip in the bud as soon as it starts.

I already have a city with skyscrapers and high-tech industry

If everyone agrees, I can fix this shit like right now.

[QUOTE=jordguitar;35070821]If everyone agrees, I can fix this shit like right now.[/QUOTE] What do ya mean?

[QUOTE=VOSK;35070871]What do ya mean?[/QUOTE] Get off dropbox and use something more secure

And then leave like half the group in the dust. We've tried FTP for the other two collabs and it fell apart. Its the nature of the beast unfortunatly.

It looks like everything is starting to calm down now, too.
