シティーズ スカイライン II – 低予算かつ低解像度需要のガイドとヒント

This guide will show you some of the most valuable tips on “High Rent”, High Low-Density Demand, Budgets, and Not Enough Costumers in Cities: スカイライン 2.

序章

I’m not an expert, but like many of you who’ve started playing CS2, I got frustrated with recurring problems, such as a never-ending demand for Low Residential.

After watching helpful videos and restarting, I discovered some things that seem to work. It’s tough to tell if it’s a bug or not because the game isn’t very polished, but it can work with some trial and error.

High Rent and High Low Res Demand

教育

Probably the most important thing to work on is building your college and university early.

You need these two buildings for several reasons.

1. Students prefer smaller spaces compared to families, and Low Residential buildings are for families.
2. Colleges and universities produce educated and very well-educated people, who are often employed in various buildings, especially office buildings.
3. Employment and jobs, それについては後で説明します, require a mix of different education levels. Your education system should cater to all four education levels:

• Uneducated (レベル 0)
• Poorly Educated (小学校)
• 教育を受けた (High School)
• Well Educated (カレッジ)
• Highly Educated (大学)

As you can see in this screenshot, there is low demand for Low Residential, but there’s a healthy demand for Medium and High Residential.

また, take note of the strong demand for office space.

Your college should attract many students. I improved the situation by adding bus lines that connect to the college.

This doesn’t completely eliminate the High Rent icons, but as you can see, it’s no longer a major problem.

Adding a Technical University is also a good idea because it provides a nice boost to office and industry areas.

Don’t Over Zone Low Res

I also didn’t overzone Low Residential like I used to. その代わり, I focused on zoning more Medium Residential when there was demand and occasionally added Low Residential. It’s more about maintaining a balance between employment and available jobs.

Jobs and Unemployment

Unemployment and Jobs

In my first playthrough, you can see that I zoned a lot of Low Residential. しかし, if you look at my unemployment rate, it’s quite high.

I didn’t realize that I didn’t have enough jobs. I’ve found the information screen, located where the graph icon is on the bottom right, to be incredibly helpful. 序盤のゲームでは, it’s crucial to ensure that there are enough jobs available for your residents.

My New City:

At the beginning of the fifth year, I realized that I needed more jobs for my city. It’s essential to monitor job availability as your city grows.

Detailed View

If you click on any building that employs people, you can hover your mouse over the employees and see a breakdown of their education levels. Here’s an example from the Geothermal Plant.

There are a couple of important things to note:

1つ, if there are missing employees, the building will not operate at its maximum efficiency. それで, この場合, less power would be generated from the Geothermal Plant.

二, Uneducated Workers should be thought of as level 0, and they are not a distinct education class. Some factories and other buildings will employ them.

Universities of all types produce Highly Educated workers, while Colleges produce Well Educated workers. Understanding the education levels of your workers is crucial for efficient city planning.

Budget

ゲーム序盤

In the early stages, I found some valuable advice on YouTube. The suggestion was to build a Geothermal Plant and then use it to export the generated power. I highly recommend finding this video, as it’s easy to follow and put into practice.

後で, once I unlocked the water treatment plant, I also started exporting excess water. さらに, I harnessed power from the incineration plant and added it to the export pool. As you can see above, the export fees can be quite substantial.

To export water, make sure to unlock tiles to the edge of the screen. それから, drag a water pipe to the edge, and it will create an outside connection. 私の知る限りでは, if you’re connected to the outside, any surplus power and water will be automatically sold.

生産

I understand there’s some controversy surrounding how industries work in the game at release. しかし, I enjoyed constructing raw material industries to make my city self-sufficient. The idea is that your city won’t have to pay to import raw materials like grain or ore, saving you money. Even if there are bugs, these buildings still create jobs, making them worthwhile.

Here’s a tip: If you build ten of each industry building (there are four types), you can unlock a signature building. 例えば, if you construct ten mining buildings for ore, coal, 等, you’ll unlock a signature factory that provides jobs and special benefits. You don’t necessarily have to zone these areas; once you unlock the signature building, you can delete the excess industry buildings you’re not using.

Taxes and Fees

In terms of taxes, I initially kept them at around 15% and only recently started to lower them. 初めに, I had negative taxes for well-educated residents to help fill jobs at the power plant. しかし, once you start producing your own well-educated citizens, you can raise the taxes on them.

If you unlock parking, be aware that parking lots will fill up quickly. I charge at least 15 for parking, which is a 50% increase from the base cost of ten. I also charge for buses, but I usually offer discounts, bringing the price down to around 6. This can help generate some additional revenue for your city.

Please note that this image was saved a little after the first one, so the amounts you see may not add up to the total pictured above. It’s essential to keep an eye on your city’s finances as they can change over time.

Not Enough Costumers

The problem you’re describing has proven challenging to solve, but I’ve found two things that can help alleviate it:

• 駐車場: Your sims can’t go shopping if they can’t find parking. Building parking spaces can address this issue. 私の経験では, parking often gets fully utilized shortly after I build it, but it can sometimes help reduce the demand icon.
• Public Transport: Providing your Sims with public transportation options can reduce the need for them to drive to shopping areas. This can be an effective way to combat the issue.

While this might be a bug, it’s likely a combination of different factors that aren’t immediately apparent.

The graphic you’ve shared provides a useful baseline for understanding the requirements of your city and the mix of low and high-skilled labor, which relates to the education level of your citizens. This mix is crucial for addressing various city needs and demands effectively.
