Thats just a feature simulating LA
Players of the city building simulation game Cities: Skylines II are celebrating the release of “Bye Bye Homeless,” an unofficial mod that will automatically delete homeless people from their cities if they can’t find housing after 1.5 hours of in-game time, solving an apparent bug that flooded their cities with impossible to remove homeless people.
It should be called the SCOTUS mod, after the current court making it legal to do exactly that.
How is this different from real life?
In the game, this happens even when housing is available and affordable - the bug is that the homeless people are wealthy and there are vacant, affordable houses that they can move into, they just choose to be homeless. There isn’t even a markup from landlords, because an update already deleted them.
In real life, the problem is that we still have landlords. Idk why we don’t just delete them like the game devs did.
they just choose to be homeless
i know you did not mean it like that but that phrasing always triggering me haha
ty for details btw
The mod isn't ignoring them?
I mean, having made homelessness illegal, I am sure the police will be ignoring them a bit less.
In big cities, they will just move them around different neighborhoods until people complain. Has been going on for years.
So yeah we are not quite there with the removal but they are testing their ability
realism in games sure is reaching new levels
A missleading title indeed.....
