Hints & Tips

- Placing water pumps next to fresh water will produce about 3 times more output
	than if placed inland.
- To avoid pollution problems: don't create mountainous surroundings (yes,  you 
	can simulate the Denver Smog Bowl effect) or limit yourself to the
	least-polluting kinds of power, time and circumstances will allow, and keep 
	industrial zoning to Light Industrial.
- While police and fire stations cover only the specific areas around them,
	hospitals, schools, and libraries serve the entire city. Put them anywhere 
	that's convenient or looks good, or simply bunch them all in a corner 
	somewhere.
- Hydroelectric and wind power plants work great in remote places where you 
	don't want to run ugly power lines.
- To get rich quick, save your game and then let it run overnight. Just make 
	sure you've deployed the police and the fire departments and turned off the 
	disaster function.
- Avoid diagonal roads and rail lines.
- Start by building residential zones around the high-value waterfront areas.
- Important tips for terrain editing: flat terrain allows you to pack Sims 
	in like sardines and thirsty Sims need a lot of water.
- Sims won't build more than 3 squares from a road. A 13-by-6 tile layout 
	with interlocking roads is efficient.
- Do not use solar, hydroelectric, or wind power plants as your main source of energy.
- When your population gets over 50,000 make highways.
- A highway is useless without an on ramp.
- Always make connections to your neighbors.
- Arcologies bring in a lot of population and crime.
- You only need a few fire stations if you put it on no disasters.
- Build lots of schools near residential areas to help keep crime down.
- Use some form of public transit like busses, subways, or railroads to keep 	pollution down.
- Once you have enough money lower taxes to help the population grow.
- Promotional ordinances help bring people to town.
- Your zoning should consist of 1\2 residential, 1\4 industrial and 1/4 commercial.
- Read the newspapers regularly.
- In areas with high crime build lots of parks.
- Whenever one of the gifts become available build it, it's free and it helps the city.
- Build an airport to make even more sims move in your city.
- When zoning, use dense for more population but more pollution or light for less of both.
- To avoid airplane crashes do not put tall buildings near the airport.
- Build your city in 6x6 squares for maximum density.
- Always start your city in 2050.  It becomes really annoying waiting for things to be invented.
- If you want the Sims to like you as a mayor, what you need to build is lots and lots of small parks.
- Keep Taxes Low To Encourage Growth
- Put Many Hospitals, Police, And Fire Stations.
- Watch Demand Graph
- Keep Many Schools Near Residential
- Don't put Many Roads To Keep Costs Down
- Coal Power Plants Give Off A Lot Of Pollution
- Buy A Fusion When Invented
- Buy A Prison When Crime Is High
- Small Seaport And Airport
- Water Costs A Lot So Don't Buy A Lot
- If you need money raise taxes to 20% for a year. The next year put taxes back to 6% or at a balanced budget.


Water Shortage Problem

If the Water Shortage message keeps appearing
de zone a 3x3 grid and place a water pump in the
middle of the de zoned area connecting it to nothing
but power and the message will go away. Make sure
all other water producing plants are bulldozed first


Church Problem

If you typed HELL,DARN,DAMN, OR HECK you will have a 
problem with your residential areas turning into
churches. This is probably the only way to get rid of
them.

1. Type FUND 4 times to issue 4 bonds.
2. Repay bonds in Budget Window.
3. Issue 1 bond in Bond Payment Window.
4. 	Wait one year and repay bond.


Other things

1. 	If you click on the helicopter with the centering
   	tool the helicopter will crash.
2. 	If you bulldoze enough trees you can, if you want,
   	listen to the Bull Moose roar.


SCURK CHEAT

Type vaudeville for a good time.
