Thread: An idea to help Urban Planning
Well since I'm basically just starting out with my city this idea will help me and not really affect you planned and placedmetropolii out there but still I think it would be a nice addition.
Allow mayors to drop abuilding of any size anywhere within city limits (land allowing) for free. No cost to lots no maintenance needs to be paid...for 1 day. After that the home will destroy itself unless ownership has been transferred to another character or the mayor accepts the building as their own, then it takes up the necessary lots from the person that owns it and the maintenance rate begins as if the home was just dropped.
This would only really be useful if you have zoning rights enabled and basically allows you (the mayor) to shoulder the burden of placing a home just so in order to have it go along with the layout and it won't cost you the maintenance to redeed and redeed and redeed in order to have it line up perfectly with the rest of the "street". It will also help new citizens move if they have an existing house. I shudder to think how someone can move all 250 items from an old home to their new city one if they dont have admin on any other structures unless one of the future vehicles forthcoming is a U haul. This also allows you to prevent griefing since you don't just grant someone zoning rights allowing them to get far enough away from you and litter the town with harvestors and/or homes where you don't want them and defaming the city.
Any comments or ideas would be useful since I think this would be a great addition to mayorial power and really help make cities look nice without wasting 20k and making your newest citizen pissed off at you![]()
Not a bump in order to draw the attention of dev's, or correspondents and then win their hearts so I can get a free month of SWG thanks to my ingenious ideas![]()
