So I was in the process of optimizing everything, making cargo trains faster and efficient with 0 transit, making public transportation better and making more money. I was with +5Million 10min ago. All of the sudden, when I’m the in the process of looking for cargo train transit to optimize, I notice a lot of buildings abandoned (I was in the process of adding more hospitals in one specific city). So, EVERYBODY got sick, I had +80.000 citizens sick and only ~14.000 heal capacity.

I was trying to make my city self sufficient, I was with +6.000 Exports and managed to make 4.000 imports. Now… My god… I don’t make money now.

They offered a bailout but I did not accept.

What I tried to do to not lose money:

  • Turned off every park.
  • Turned off every water station that was not necessary.
  • Should have turned off the airport but I did not do it…
  • And the hospital investment was 150%.

I should have putted the taxes in the max when it happened but I just did that now.

My city:

  • You guys making fun of my situation
  • Tips to make this not a mess.
  • your opinion on what I should have done differently.
