Vanadium City - 350 hours in
Hi everyone, after nearly 1500 hours with my last save, I thought it would be fun to start over in the Northern Forest when 1.0 hit.
Same rules as last time: each building dedicated to a single part, expand upwards, work with the terrain, no mods, no belt clipping, each building is unique, and keep everything accessible without flying.
The new city in the northern forest is coming along nicely. Sure there’s the shiny skyline towering over a dark underbelly of chaotic logistic systems below. But this time the terrain made for some more interesting challenges. I liked the trees here so I built around them. The small parks that hold them are flanked by massive sun blocking buildings and pipe racks so I hope they’re ok with artificial light. The streets are narrow and deal with a lot of elevation change. Streets on grids were disrupted often and joining angles had its own set of challenges.
All in all, 14 HMF/min.
I kept key save points and went back into each to take a pic from the same vantage point to show the progression.
Anyway, I’ll continue to experiment with new designs, build on some surrounding districts, continue to take inspiration from this awesome community, and share some close ups when I hit the 500 hr mark.
Thanks for letting me showcase my progress.
