Okay, I've got a question.

Each city starts out with about a 150m Radius as an outpost. At the top growth level (Metropolis), the radius increases to 450m.

Now my question is this.

Say for example you build a city hall near another city. VERY near. When you lay down the city hall, does it already automatically calculate a 450m radius around the proposed new city hall? Or does it only calculate a 150m radius around the footprint? If the latter is true, then since city radiuses can't overlap, will growth stunting be possible?

It won't allow you to place a city hall if it is within 1km of another.

When you go to place a city hall, the system checks to make sure there is no other city within 1000m from your hall. (450maximum possible for each city plus a 50 meter "buffer" for each city) So the two cities' radii cannot overlap.

I wish the devs would have made deed levels, so people who knew they just wanted a level 1 or 2 (like my town) could have used one of those deeds so as not to usurp land that will not be used But they didn't do it that way

K, thanks.

Question 2.

Assuming zoning rights are enabled, will someone without zoning permissions be able to place a house on an area that is (for the time being) considered not part of the city, but will be part of the city (assumingsaidcityis promoted in rank)?

Yes.
