Looks like they got some nice mechanics there.
Indeed. Hope these mechanics don’t bug everything out though. The more complex you make something, the higher the chances it will break after all.
Imagine if one agent gets stuck for whatever reason…. lol
Also I hope the drivers will have some intelligence this time around and I won’t be seeing extreme traffic in 2 small roads while everything else works like a charm. Whole damn city chose those 2 small roads every day?
That’s pretty impressive. It seems that they are going to have quite a lot of mechanics at work, adding to the game. The Sim City 2000 fan in me is starting to come out of hibernation… 😆
