Cities Skylines is full of them. Unlike Simcity 4, it rarely crashes to the desktop, and just renders strange things instead. This is the official "show us your oddities" thread! (More coming soon, this will get us started)

The rare "traffic jam" or CSL's version of it...  


What the hell happened here...


For anything in Simcity or Cities Skylines, if there's something that looks like a glitch or otherwise looks strange, share it here!

A hellban is the idea of causing a user to be the only one who is able to view their posts. It would appear that their posts have been added to a website, but in reality, they are completely hidden to everyone except for them. 

It's very common, as a matter of fact. Instagram does this when they believe that a user has gained fake followers, fake interactions and likes, or otherwise done things that are spam-esque. The worst part is that there is no way to really tell without actually having someone check for you. 

What are your thoughts on this? Would you ever do this, or is it better just to be upfront about it and call it a day?

It used to be that an elementary school could cover a fairly adequate distance radius-wise. Of course, in CSL, it flows through the roads rather than being an SC4-style literal radius, but you could throw it on a major road and be fine. Of course, you usually needed several for larger districts. The 300 student limitation was the limiting factor, however. 

Some time ago, they must have updated this. Now, it barely flows through two blocks. It's annoying for low density neighborhoods where a small neighborhood needs 3-4 elementary schools just to cover it. 

I feel that CSL almost decided the game was too easy, so they updated it to change things. It's overall a weird update. Is this just some sort of glitch, or did anyone else notice this too?

Hello all, 

Due to some unexpected technical difficulties, we experienced some brief downtime this evening. The issues have been resolved, and we've restored the database to a very recent backup from only a few hours prior. Certain alerts and any status updates within the past few hours may be missing, but everything else should be back to normal! This includes all posts, which were fully restored.

If you notice anything else that seems off or otherwise seems missing, please let us know and we will make sure to restore them as much as possible! Otherwise, things should be back to normal.

Thank you, 
-Administration

My state just issued a stay at home order for the entire state. Any non-essential business will be closed, but supposedly, you're not on a full-level lockdown. At least that's what I'm told. I'm a little confused. How is it optional that I'm able to go out, and yet I'm "ordered" to stay at home? 

Apparently that's the key difference between a stay at home and a shelter in place order. Here, we have the same requirements from the government, but it's not a misdemeanor if we go out. In San Fransisco, it's actually going to go on your record. But on that token, so many people are saying so many different things that I just... who knows... 

What are the precautions being taken in your state/region/nationality? What's the difference between these exactly? #askmakestation #poorman'sreddit

For us, we've only ever needed to use a database backup twice in our history, but you can never be too safe. Even losing a week's worth of content would be disappointing. I used to do monthly backups, but I now do them pretty much twice a week. File backups are usually once every six months (they don't change very much at all). 

How often is pretty much acceptable to do a database backup? Have you ever had to use one before? Curious as to what other site owners and administrators use as their general schedule for these.

My life has gotten increasingly stressful these past couple of years. I completed a two year program of College at my nearby Community College several years back. Took a couple years off, saved up as much money as possible, and went back. After changing my major, along with the hurricane (and now the coronavirus), my studies have dragged on longer than I expected. Savings ran dry paying for semester after semester, and now I'm working two jobs (and a third super-part time) and in school full time to try to get it finished off. 

Communities like this one (and a number of other forums) are a stress-reliever of sorts for me. Outside of that, I try to stay in good shape physically, do my best to eat well, have a consistent schedule throughout the day, and try various supplements (L-theanine, CBD oil, and so forth) to help reduce the stress. In any case, you get used to it after a while. I know that there are people here who have much more stress in their lives than I do here. You learn and roll with it after a while. 

And of course, as you get older, it only gets worse!

How do you manage stress in your life?

Hy guys, hope you're all still healthy, I have a question. Which video chat program should my Kidds or I use on the PC? Skype? or https://zoom.us/ or do you have a better suggestion
