Recently, many friends have been consulting the editor on how to play Cities: Skylines with a dam. So now I will share with you a guide on how to play Cities: Skylines with a dam. I hope it can help everyone.

There is a high-speed entrance on the upper left and lower right, which are developed at the same time to increase the speed of population entry.

The subway still follows the same principle. The rings are not connected, and there are two lines in each ring.

In order to reduce traffic flow and increase the speed of entry of villains, all areas are office areas and commercial areas.

Only commercial areas and office areas require high academic support, so overflow educational institutions are created.

The highway on the upper left is cut off, allowing the residential villains in the upper left area to enter and speed up. Other roads are not needed for this level.

The difficulty is reaching a population of 65,000 in 300 weeks.

Don't expect to keep the small town and dam at the beginning. Perhaps careful adjustment of the water outlet next to the dam and the downstream bank can eventually be preserved, but the money and effort spent are really not cost-effective. What's more, there will be three meteorites hitting the dam later, and I will return to before liberation after a hard sleep.

First of all, go upstream to buy land as soon as you start, and find land with more high-speed connections and more flat areas. After all, the small town location at the beginning has long since sunk.

Then plan the industrial area, relocate the industry, and then relocate the public facilities in the initial town and close those that are not needed. Gradually move the town to the new area.

The key is to be quick and save money, as the capital chain is very easy to break during the transfer. When the power demand drops to the threshold during the transfer, the dam must be closed immediately. This cost is too high.

The control rhythm is within 100 weeks, the population is 25,000, and an initial plan with full education coverage, full subway and bus coverage, normal capital chain, and rapid development has been initially formed.

Now comes the difficulty. It is required to increase the population by 40,000 in 200 weeks, which is 200+ people per week.

Considerations for maintaining the pace of a rapidly growing population:

1. Use office areas and commercial areas as much as possible instead of building industrial areas. Trucks will occupy a large number of people entering the city, and even if there is no traffic jam, it will delay time. Therefore, education must keep up or even overflow. If there is insufficient goods, use the information park, which automatically produces goods without transporting them.

2. Try to start development from the highway entrance. It takes time for villains to enter the city. Even if there is no traffic jam, they will spend a lot of time on the road. 3. Several high-speed entrances are divided into areas and developed at the same time to speed up the entry speed of villains.

4. Even if there is no demand, mark out each area first. Waiting until you see the color bar and then draw the grid and then the villain will move in. Too much time is wasted.

5. Never connect the highways in and out of the city in different directions. People and goods coming and going in all directions will cross each other, which will greatly slow down the entry speed of small people entering the market and lead to failure. Our goal is not to develop the city better. It is better, but to ensure that villains enter the site faster. Different strategies have different purposes. You can partially connect, for example, the output is connected to 2 high-speed ports, but any entrance must be strictly controlled.

The editor of Cities: Skylines has shared the strategy of relying on the dam here. Friends who are not sure about it can take a look.
