A Deep Dive Into Services

This was a great entry as it gave us a bit more insight into a few things covered in this weeks developer diary.

There were four additional things that stood out to me with the first being a look at specialized universities. We had it confirmed that there are both tech and medical Universities which I’m sure will have an effect on what type of office/jobs it creates for Sims.

The second was regarding district policies which is more refined now and appear to be much better. They kept the most realistic ones such as “Heavy Traffic Ban” not effecting highways that cross through a district and being able to charge for roadside parking which will make inner city suburbs a lot more realistic.

The last two were a better look at drawing districts/garbage lots which works much better than the painting method in CS1 and the building demolition animation which wasn’t anything spectacular but was definitely nice to have.

This was feature 5 done and the next one I’m looking forward to is feature 7 which will be on maps which may give us more clarification to their size, so 7 onwards is what I’m most interested in.
