Hello Mayors! We have a new Patch for you! Patch 1.2.5f1 arrives with A bunch of new parks that we mentioned briefly in the Anniversary Announcement on the 10th, but it also contains many fixes! Let’s jump in!

This patch includes several quality-of-life improvements related to homelessness:

· Homelessness statistic

· Homelessness added to Population Info View

· Homeless households visible and selectable in parks’ Selected Info Panel

· Improvements to when citizens move out to reduce homelessness

These changes make it easier to track homelessness, find homeless populations in your city, and check the situation for individual homeless citizens. If the homeless in your city are generally employed, they simply need affordable housing. If they are also unemployed, they will need jobs suitable for their education level before they can leave the homeless status behind. Additionally, we have improved the logic behind newly adult citizens moving out of their childhood homes. Previously, they would move out immediately once they reached adulthood, and if no affordable homes were available, they would become homeless. Now, they will stay with their parents until certain conditions are met:

· Newly adult citizens need a job before moving out.

· They contribute to the household’s wealth until the household can afford to provide them with starting money, giving them a better chance to start a new life on their own.

· They check if there are available homes in the city before moving out.

· If there are not enough homes available in the city, they may choose to move out of the city and become commuters. Commuters can and often will move to the city when housing becomes available.

1.2.5f1 Patch NotesKnown issues:

· Crime accumulation fixes might require more police force in existing cities and for efficient crime handling the need to assign police to districts.

· Industrial and Office zone tax income has lowered following a bug fix that deducts wages from untaxed income. If office zones struggle to be profitable, then make sure they have enough highly educated workforce available.

New features: · Added Easy and Normal modes.

· 10 Cities: Skylines 10 years birthday parks:

· Chirplet Park

· Chirper Park

· Chirper Adventure Park

· Chirper Fun Time Complex

· Activity Playground

· Hilly Playground

Hello!

I asked the Lemmy.ml mods to mod this community as the old mod was non-existent and being the community with most users on Lemmy, it was sadly kinda abandoned. Now it's time to create our little corner in the Fediverse for the fans of these big simulation games.

What changed?

• I updated the community logo (there was none before) and the community banner to the images of Cities Skylines II.

• Also changed the sidebar to include information about the games, some community guidelines, links and community filters that work as "flairs" on some Lemmy clients.

• I'm setting up a bot that will post 'News and Announcements' from the PDX Forum. This way you will keep updated with the announcements, the most recent patchs, updates and DLC's.

• I didn't and I will not delete any content posted to this community until today!

In the Cities Skylines community you're free to:

• Share pictures of your cities
• Share videos about the game
• Ask questions
• Be creative

That's all for now! Let me know some feeback about the guidelines and what can make the community better!

Hope you enjoy the Cities Skylines community!
